2020/21 Marcel Brands

The squad is terrible and its mainly down to Brands. How anyone can think he is competent is beyond me.

How can it be that we end up with no effective cover at lb,rb,cf - how long as he been here.

Guy needs to get the boot,90% of his signings have been dreadful

If I had quid for every time I'd seen a post like this I'd have about 23 quid.

Moyes - signs hungry young players like Bowen

Brands - signs whatever cast off slug the top clubs know are not good/hungry enough to fight.

Let’s get him back as DoF then when he ultimately gets sacked again by them

I would happily have him back - Moyes has a good eye for a player always has done.

Brands signs the sort of players who would be fine in a soft slow european league not the hard, cold physical Premier League.

I mean Gomes and Bernard hardly The Krays are they

Fwiw Bowen would be a horrendous fit in our team.

Why? He's effing better than siggy and delph etc. What's wrong with him?

Well besides that fact that he's a winger and Siggy and Delph aren't that, he's a winger who excels at running with the ball and scoring which while useful skills are most effective in a side trying to quickly transition from defense to attack like West Ham. If we aren't going to play that way he'd lose effectiveness pretty quick.

Also if were to put him on the right and Richarlison on the left you'd have two wingers who don't really pass forward or create and mostly look to score themselves which is woefully out of balance.

Maybe I'm wrong but I see it as a bad fit.

The original post was about players with his attributes, such as determination, cleverness, hunger and drive, all things the likes of delph and siggy etc don't have. I wasn't particularly talking about specific positions.

The bench:
Bernard was free and a failure. Everyone else (noone cares about lossl, free)apart from gomes were not brands. It needs TIME you babies
