i am crying naked on a white stallionI’d love it if he did! All the rs mutants whobelieve he will return to them naked on a white stallion to deliver them from slot will ne crushed
Of course, because you’re correct and every single football club, manager and scouting department who target specific players to play a specific style of football is wrong. Why even bother when they could just sign anyone really and they will all be able to adapt to the system because they’re professionals. Why did Pep ever get rid of Joe Hart because he was crap with his feet, is he clueless or something? He’s a professional!! It’s amazing that you haven’t been offered a role in football, you seem to be a true innovator.

They can fit into a system. That's football. A game of combination. Not all of them are superstars or need to be,
So are you saying two lumbering oaf centre halves can play a high-line system.

I reiterate: any PL standard footballer can play any system. Some teams will play any particular system better than others due to one or two players with greater quality. That's football.
Stop making excuses and saying our players only suit Moyes way of playing. That's just you and others who say its way of saying stick with Moyes.
He is saying that. But when it suited him during Martinez’s second season, it was because none of Moyes’ refusenik cloggers could play Total Football and we needed to bring in more specific players to suit the managers system. Agendas are amazing aren’t they.
Never seen someone be so wrong, so often. Consistency is impressive.
Actually bending and contorting his own views to BE wrong as well, it’s honestly staggering.
That doesn't really work though Dave, you get brought in for your specific style, clubs don't have time to throw that style straight out the window. Look at Amorin at Utd.
To many Athletes rather than allround footballers, and you're not just asking a few players, you're counting on a squad.
Look what's happened with Forest, 4 different styles, no time to implement it, yet some very good players there.
Spurs went from Ange to Frank to Tudor 3 different styles.
West ham - Potter - Nuno, and Nuno just had a big window.
4 of the bottom 5 had Nuno in recent years..
To many quick change in styles and look who's hovering at the bottom.

What you highlight there is a coaching problem, that's not the same as saying all those players cant play a desired style by a competent coach.

Love it when you throw complete random nonsense into threads as though it’s a fact because you say so.
That bit above I’ve highlighted being a prime example of something you’ve completely made up.
It's Time Dave, Football doesn't give you time anymore.
Why do you think Brighton, Brentford, Bournemouth have been able to do what they do, they started it before coming to the premiership and built a set foundation. They don't bring in players for a Coach, they bring in Coaches for the players.
Super Sundays, with Dave.

There isn't a PL standard player who hasn't played in a variety of different systems in their 'journey' to become a professional player - they wouldn't reach that level if they couldn't adapt.
If you're arguing against that very obvious and correct point then you live in an abstract world where footballers just go through their careers playing one of 'direct' / 'pressing' / 'passing' football.
In fact, different styles are expected off players from game to game, and even within game, in the PL. Look at how we can go from a low block counter attacking game to one where we push up and get on the halfway line and our best players on the ball.
But as said, you and others can just keep peddling your abstractions to justify Moyes if you like...
Are you telling me the only reason Doucoure and Gana's failure to spearhead an Everton tika-taka game is sequential managerial failures?
