But come on, you cant blame Brands for last night, the best players on the pitch were his signings.

He's failed to break the cycle of signing mentally weak players, that 's the point. He didn't (cant) get shut of those he inherited, and he actually added to the number of cowards we have.

Is it really possible to know if someone is a coward, unless they're an established pro or a captain or a proven player. WHen we take unproven, younger players, we really just don't know. I expected more leadership from Siggy but the other Walsh / Koeman signings not really, and under brands we haven't signed that many - Delph maybe you thought was a leader .Jags, Coleman and Baines supposed to be, but they were leaving or going to be on the fringes. Seems like it'rs really hard to sign a leaderunless you're going to the £50m + range and they're going to top 6 or the CL clubs

Part of the scouting should focus in in if the player has any bottle. Our main focus on transfers should be leaders

Who do you class as mentally weak as opposed to lacking ability? What is your opinion on the improvements made since Silva's sacking?
 

He didnt sign Pickford or Davies, they were they only 2 cowards from last night.
They all consistently lose their nerve.

Fact No.1: Brands has done nothing substantial to clear the decks of trash.

Fact No.2: Brands has bought utter trash - especially last summer.

Fact No.3: Ancelotti will be well aware of Brands' limitations and will insist to Moshiri that HE gets to choose our next crop of players.

Fact No.1 : Brands has been involved in 75 transfers in 18months, hes done all he can, its his fault that hes trying to sell rubbish

Fact No.2 : All our better players have been bought by Brands, a totally undeniable fact

Fact No.3 : Ancelotti will be well aware of Brands standing in the game and will insist to Moshiri that Brands is retained for as long as possible

I dont see what fee has to do with leadership.
 

But I DO KNOW the club's wastage of funds has all coincided with the introduction of the post of DoF. THAT is undeniable...and four years worth of evidence is easily enough time to make that judgement.
Was it Walsh or Brands signed Niasse… as big a waste of money as we have had in some time ?

Managers and DOF make good decisions and bad ones.

Putting Fact in front of your opinions doesn't make them facts.

I don't want you going through life with this delusion. You are welcome.

1/ how much did he bring in?
2/ that's not impressive given the utter tat we had before he arrived...and only Digne is worth a flying one anyway, and our best is increasingly Holgate signed by El Gaffer.
3/ "Brands standing in the game". FFS, tea all over the keyboard here.
