Look at what it’s taken to get them there though, and even now they can still drop 60 mill on Cunha, we can’t.
They’ve pretty much had unlimited money for years, spent it on rubbish, and not even sold very effectively. They’re only now getting...
Cunha has had back to back good seasons. I agree though with the general point of being wary about paying record fees for players. That's not what this summer should be about. You make those signings when you're either desperate or you already...
United Chelsea Liverpool Arsenal And City have had unlimited money for as long as I can remember (obviously City and Chelsea since their takeover)
Miss the CL? Doesn’t matter, unlimited money
Squad size of 50 players? Doesn’t matter
Pay for...
Ramsey has never nailed down his best position and is injury prone and too expensive.
Mbeumonis a good player but I’m wary of paying record fees for players with one good season. Same goes for Cunha.
There’s better value to be had and...
Just to add to this, I remember hearing from Meis at the time that plans were announced that we were limited to around 55k as that is the highest you can safely go to at two tiers.
The overall footprint needed for a 3 tiered stadium is much...
First player I’ve seen for us that was genuinely giving me Cahill flashbacks in that game. His movement in the box to get on the end of crosses is excellent.
Can’t say either way on the capacity as don’t know enough but perhaps there was a trade off on the location vs size.
If you build a 70k seater stadium out in the sticks then it makes extra money on match day because of the capacity but is empty...
that’s exactly the problem, we need to buy someone who can pass a ball like that. We need a midfield dictator who can mix up short and long passing, taking the ball off the CBs and playing between the lines. When they do this the opposition CBs...
You’re all over the place. I’m not arguing any of them are overall better midfielders than Gueye, just that Gueye is poor in possession, which he is, are you trying to say he’s good on the ball?
Basic is a different subject but seeing as you...
Can’t remember too many league 1 level midfielders getting multiple motm awards in the premier league and starring against Yaya Toure and the City midfield in a league cup semi final. But yeah let’s just judge him on how he played rehabbing from...
That’s not what I said though is it. If you clearly read it I said I’d trust any of the others to handle the ball better than him. I stand by that. Do people really think Gueye is good in possession? Short memories.
Wait around until the last day of the window for a player that is obviously going elsewhere and then get a complete no mark in who can’t hit a barn door…on loan
