2019/20 Carlo Ancelotti

[Gilbert..]

Torres 50m
Lozano 36m
Bale 96m
Hamez 80m

All disgusting flops.

Lazono has only been at napoli for 6 months.
Bales first few seasons were great. He put in some fantastic displays for Madrid.

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.

My source at the time said the Niasse deal was brought in over RM's head. Take it or leave it.

That`s the best description of @davek I`ve ever seen

It`s like something from the Matrix !

Bravo.

Totally agree, there were dog awful signings since Moyes, manager or D of F, they have wasted cash. Sharashaj, Niasse, McGeady, Alcaraz, Kone, Rodriguez all horrendous just the price has tripled since then.

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 1 - To sell a player you need to have a buyer, if there’s no buyer then you really cannot force teams to buy. You can’t then turn around and just simply release a player bought for £10/20/30m+ just to clear them off the bill as it would cos as much to get them to agree to a pay off

Fact 2 - Steve Walsh/Ronald Koeman and Roberto Martinez bought more trash than Brands which is why he has to clear the squad so much

Fact 3 - Ancelotti knows Brands standing in the game and will work WITH him not AGAINST him to bring players in that they BOTH feel will be successful at our club

Dave : What are you trying to tell me? That I can dodge bullets?

Goat: No, Dave. I'm trying to tell you that when you're ready, you won't have to.

Already heard that Carlo and some of Brands team don't get on.

 

[ForeverBlue92]

Needs to sack off this garbage zonal marking.

It NEVER works.

 

[Furey1878]

Weak:

Pickford
Coleman
Kean
Keane
Richarlison
DCL
Schneiderlin
Davies
Walcott

Kean, Richarlison and DCL, Dave?

Kean has been here half a season and the latter two have been carrying the team this season.

The rest absolutely agree with though.

Goat: No, Dave. I'm trying to tell you that when you're ready, you won't have to.

You wouldn't be Morpheus, you'd be Agent Smith

2-0 with 4 minutes left.

How on earth is the manager responsible for that being lost? He's taken them to seconds of a victory and the players - WHO HAVE PREVIOUS MULTIPLE TIMES OVER - have capitulated in a fashion that no manager can plan for.

Ancelloti managed the last 15 minutes poorly , making similar mistakes to the Brighton game. He is as culpable as the players for last nights tail end shenanigans.
Moyes was pilloried for making exactly the same sort of decisions during his time here, and rightly so.

D'you know what i think he;s doing? I think he's setting these chumps a test each week seeing how their nerve holds ou: eho sinks and who swims.

I applaud that. We need to see him experiment until the end of the season. He needs to separate the wheat from the chaff.
