2019/20 Marcel Brands

[Theblueview]

Go have a lie down mate, maybe take a tablet or two for those daydreams

So when is he due back?

So when is he due back?

When he's recovered from his injury. Duh

 

[ProZ]

Fabian Delph the big mouthed slack jawed mess who thinks he’s some sort of worldie because he sat on the city bench or got ten minutes at the end of a game. Spent more time on a slab of table in the physio room than he has on a football pitch.

He want’s to be stuffed and used as a scarecrow in our next DOF office.

 

[Theblueview]

When he's recovered from his injury. Duh

So yeah didn’t need surgery, got a few months in, needed surgery after all, few months out recovered ... almost back apparently .(Half way point of drugs ban) .. then bang injured again in a fluke for same amount of time... of course that’s not suspicious ...nothing to see here.

Monchi has had very little say in what's happened at Roma and was told he would have free reign to build from the ground up then a week later handed a list of players the board were encouraging him to sign. The Roma setup seems very similar to us at times as i don't think Brands is 100% in control over the goings on here.

mai he didn’t spend £210m and failed??

Funny how the pandemic doesn’t seem to effect Chelsea or Man city? If we’re skint again, We will need to look for a new owner.

Oh I guess I wasn’t aware they both had new DOF as well.

 

[Goat]

You'd still have De Boer as manager.

And you would still have Martinez.

I think maybe you've had enough internet today.
Go for a walk. Lovely day out.

You are missing the point the general reaction to those signings was one of approval.

So what? Fan's don't scout these players for hours on end over multiple games while appointing and directing a well paid professional team of analysts and scouts detailing every aspect of the player and how he fit's into the squad.

Football professionals are supposed to be much, much more better informed than a fan with inherent biases who watches a couple of games at the weekend and doesn't watch the individual player in detail.

It's the same kind of reason that the debate about who signed who and how the structure works is pretty pointless in here. I can state with a fair amount of confidence that nobody on this board has the inside scoop. We all just have our biases and wild stabs in the dark about what goes on.

In general the fans approved the signings before they seen them play,

And you would still have Martinez.

....Martinez outgrew us.

 

[davek]

What has that got to do with this thread?

After Brands who have you got your knife sharpened for??

Ancelotti.

 

[ToffeeTim]

....Martinez outgrew us.

Yes bring sacked after a 3 nil drubbing to Big Sam's Sunderland would certainly back up that viewpoint

 

[street end]

....Martinez outgrew us.

As if

If Martinez had the cash that the Double Dutch Disaster act of Koeman and Brnads had we'd be CL spots now.

£27M on Lukaku. Just imagine how many top players Martinez would have bought for £400M.
