yeah similar to Beto, but five years younger, we can not afford the finished article mate, wished we could, but he has a fair few very good attributes, very tall, good in the air, fast, strong, works hard and in all competitions scored 19 goals...
20 mins in to Botafogo vs Palmeiras and there’s been about 10 minutes of actual play. Feigning injury is being taken to the next level here. Hope all matches in Brazil aren’t like this.
100% a starter this season, he won't go from being our player of the year to a bit part player I've a summer break. Key player this year and maybe a drop off will be noticed, I'd argue that even in year 2 he'll play more than Coleman will this...
I don’t disagree with much of that. Though I do think sport science is much better now and Gana clearly takes care of himself. He’s not shown the signs of a normal 35 year old. Really I just don’t see any reason why he can’t be a first teamer in...
I’m getting old Z. Might need some more recent examples but I do recall Distin picking up an injury that seemed to tough to come back from before he left us. And even before that, his best years were under Moyes. That’s when he started to go...
It really doesn’t work like that…You don’t just wake up one morning and not have it. Declines aren’t sudden. They’re gradual. Different rates, sure. But it’s not like you just have legs one day and then you don’t the next.
You all realize he was our player of the season right? If he’s not quite at the same level he’s probably what, our third best player this go around? Then next season he starts taking a back seat but is still a key contributor? 2 years is a no...

Beef with Koeman as well he'd fit right in
It’s logical considering how much he plays. Also his experience and importance to the overall squad. And the fact that him, Pickford and tarks are the spine of the team and first names on the team sheet.
We just gave Coleman a year and he plays...
That’s the question though, isn’t it? Is he any better than Garner? I don’t think he is. And if that’s the case then we should be looking elsewhere. Squad filler? Sure. But we need so much that 12mil is meaningful and shouldn’t be spent on...
