LAM09

Do we need flashbacks of RM last year?

We were nowhere near because Lampard was leading the team for half the season, not because of Tuchel's shortcomings. This idea of long-term managers needs to be reassessed at this point. Boehly has pumped plenty of cash into the club within a short time scale, so we need to deliver something sooner rather than later.

We managed to beat Pep's amazing City side three times in the same season. I believe if Tuchel had been backed, he would have built a team capable of competing on all fronts.

I still feel like Maignan is probably the best all-around option.

I guess the countless numbers of replies aren't getting the point across. He really isn't the answer. We'll play some attractive football, but we'll be found out when it really matters.

My bad. Stupidity is contagious. A CM for a winger makes perfect sense.

Gallagher is a box to box, Felix is an AM. It isn't hard to understand.

Potter still thinks he's at Brighton. It's inexcusable.

He brought a CM on for a winger. There's a few words for ya. 🙄

The bias you've shown towards Potter is farcical at this point. He wanted to hold out with 30 mins left against relegation candidates at HOME!

A number of people could be blamed for throwing away two points, but it's hard to look past Potter. It started when the XI was announced and continued throughout.

The definition of a coward. Gallagher on with 30 mins remaining!?

Our CAPTAIN! 😑 KK has been dire today as well. Sold himself with minutes remaining.

I'd say Bayern, PSG, United, and us are potential suitors. Barca & RM could be in the mix, but I think they both have their own stumbling blocks (Endrick joining the latter has muted such talk). Bayern broke their traditional habits by buying de Ligt, & I'm sure they'd see Osimhen in a similar light. Also, they made it known that a CF is high on the agenda, with talk of even Kane circling around. The key factor that could decide things is Osimhen's vocal admiration/desire to play in the EPL; he's built for it.

He's arguably the best CF around. Such a price is to be expected, but I'm sure we could get him for less, whether it involves a player (Kepa, Broja, etc.) or pressure from both parties.

If he manages to win another European trophy despite all his recent antics, he'll be back among the top managers around.

If we're going to go all the way, we'll have to do it the hard way. This RM side are more than beatable, as we've shown in previous years. The less said about the other side of the draw, the better. Napoli won't have a better chance of reaching a European final.

AZ Alkmaar beat Lazio home and away. I rarely follow goings on in the Eredivisie nowadays, but they seem to be building a promising squad from U-21 to their main team.

He adds another

See the difference in goals, impact of each player and the supporting cast. Imagine if they switched positions....

Take that and run! I don't want to hear nonsense about another "Salah/De Bruyne" scenario either.

That header was something else. He's the best CF around, and there really shouldn't be a debate.

That joke of a handball call killed Leipzig.

If you look at our European triumphs in the last decade, they are the only side to have faired better. For the reasons you mentioned, adding another one to that record would undoubtedly be something.

Unfortunately, I think they blew their chance in Germany.
