I was always a fan. Surely future PL hall of famer with Ross Barkley.
-
And even that it's a overreaction by fans. How many long distance screamers he concedes? Two or three per season. Big deal. Set pieces also, I don't recall we suffered a lot.
-
Szoboszlai and AMA both more attacking midfielders. Kinda weird Klopp took both.
-
Really curious how Enrique is going to do in Paris. Ugarte and Lucas Hernandez good buys. They got rid of Messi who doesn't run. Still short 2 attacking players.
-
Yeah, it was about money ofc. He is lucky United is only club left to do such a thing. I mean, just look at their payroll... DDG 375k per week Sancho 350k Varane 340k Casemiro 300k Martial 250k Bruno 240k Antony 200k And now Rashford is about to sign for 375k and Mount is 250k-300k. We are changing direction, only Sterling, Enzo and James are over 200k from next season with KK, Kante and Lukaku gone.
-
Reading that Arteta is planning to use him as number 8 with Odegaard and Rice behind. Lampard did the same early in his second season when we won for example 0:4 in Sevilla and Russia. They are always playing on front foot but should be vulnerable in defence.
-
Muani never scored more than 15 league goals. And is 25 this year. Abraham category player tbh. Wouldn't take him for 30m.
-
AV is serious contender for even top4 next season. This season only City won more points than them last 20 PL games and they are top4 last 25 games. Emery did amazing job. Only slow start with amateur Gerrard who left them in relegation zone. And now they add Tielemans and Pau Torres so far.
-
This sport and world is fucked up when Brozovic gets 100m for 3 years.
-
Thank you Paul. There was a report Boehly created twitter account just to see what fans are saying and it looked like he was always trying to make them happy. Thankfully guy with knowledge took charge.
-
I'm making mojito.
-
Looking at current squad I only see Gallagher as backup for Nkunku as AM in 4231 which is expected formation from Poch. Don't think he can play in double pivot. People are discussing Mount replacement but I think Szoboszlai or Veiga may be targets only if we sell Conor.
-
Diogo Costa, Caicedo, Barella, Kane and call it a day!
-
While others are posting pics from beaches he is already in heavy training according to his social media. Nice thing to see. Disappointing last season but looks like he is motivated to turn things around. As a highest earner next season and among more experienced players we really need him.
-
Richards just scored for Jamaica after replacing Leon Bailey on Gold Cup. @ZAPHOD2319 why USA doesn't play with best players this tournament?
-
I don't know, he did put some pressure on the club to sell him and talks with Spurs collapsed anyway. They wanted 40m. Not sure i saw some quotes from him but probably same case as Meslier. Won't come if not guaranteed number one.
-
Still plenty of time, window just opened but teams ideally want to have transfers done before pre season. Spurs are doing good moves. Vicario and Maddison plus are after CB now. New manager as well and should get one LB and they ready to go. Keep Kane ofc. Arsenal also doing good moves with Rice, Havertz and Timber. I do find it weird that they are so easily throwing 2 of 3 starting MFs after their best season in 2 decades. Newcastle got great MFer, just what they needed. With CL they will be more active on transfers for sure. City is City don't need to do much, just cosmetic changes. Liverpool will completely refresh MF area and will have better season. United is making zero improvement with Mount and Onana. What a stupid way to spend over 100m. Basically their whole budget. We are doing great with sales but let's wait and see arrivals. So if we draw the line today us and United are far away from top4. My opinion.
-
Kepa was very good under 3 managers: Sarri, Tuchel and Potter. Only bad under worst defensive manager we ever saw. I'm sure it will be good under Poch.
-
Meslier pretty much confirmed our interest in him but also said he doesn't want to be number two. It will be hard to find that guy.
-
I'm so afraid about tomorrow and potentially fucking up Mount sale over a few millions. Maddison with one year left on contract just moved for 40m and we got Sterling last summer for 47.5m. Asking for 65m is just greedy.
-
And we lost him for free. Do you think what he gave us last season or two is worth more than potential fee? But Kante is not much of a issue for me there are better examples. People would complain about board how stupid they are to let Rudiger and Christensen go for free and now in same situation with Kovacic and Mount when they have one year left on contract you still whine how letting them go is mistake while club is doing only logical thing by taking 80-90m pounds for them. Alternative is to lose them for free next summer plus they don't want to stay. So basically club cannot do good either way with some of you.
-
Ofc we are. He won't play there number one. And we beat them many times. Cucurella recently. Arsenal just beat them for Rice who even preferred Arsenal. Alexis, Fred, Jorginho, VVD... Many players rejected City.
-
Did we even put any effort to extend him tho?
-
With City being on this level next 4 years while he is there he has a good chance to tie at least CL titles record by player. Kovacic has 4 so far, record is 6.
-
Poor Thiago Silva every couple of days he is posting crying emojis about leaving players.
