The Rising Sun

We need a coach who doesn't play this possession football bullshit. 
It is by far the worst kind of football to watch.

Maresca is a one trick pony unfortunately.
 
Even if players can do what he wants it is just not dynamic enough.
 
His style takes away urgency from players in the way they approach the game . 
 
When we see crazy urgency in the last 15 mins of games while trying to win it or rescue a point it is because the players throw maresca ball out of the window and play football.
 
I really really wanted to like this manager. Sad that he has not given me an opportunity to hold on to anything, any silver linings.
 
The fact that almost all players massively regress under him speaks volumes. 

Honestly despise the way we play football. 
 
Up there with 2016 Mourinho. 

Line up and result was on Maresca, Gittens was a bizzare buy and still say this now he's shit and not Chelsea level
We have to stop all this tinkering shite I know the best line up, Maresca is either a thick bastard or naive.
 

Gittens was a bizarre signing, I have a feeling he will be loaned by next summer, I just do not see a player in him at Dortmund and don't here

Agree on that. Embarrassing tbh.

52m for Simons who is quality and we paid 48m for fucking Gittens. This board never ceases to amaze me.

great technique from sanchez there

neto as a lw and estevao as rw
gittsen on the bench

Do we really need Garnacho? Ball progression looks good to me

Fuck knows why. Hes quick, beats players, then gives the ball away, or shoots into row Z or 10 yards wide. We've had enough of that type of player.

I love Tosin and there’s zero chance I’d think of selling him. A leader, very well liked and respected by his teammates, very solid almost every time he’s on the pitch, and importantly isn’t someone who is going to make a fuss if he doesn’t start every match. He’s the picture perfect squad player for a club like this. 
All these mentions of Wes Fofana in some of these stories is strange to me. There should be ZERO planning of the squad or team around him. His knees are a ticking time bomb that are likely to blow up at any moment he’s on the pitch. 

WORLD CHAMPION BUS

Yep - people act like Nico is a long way off from being a great player. It isn't the case. 
If he fixes the 1%ers in his game, he becomes a great player. He is a very damaging player for the most part in the middle of the field. A few shooting and positioning fixes and he becomes lethal. 

Nico - without the pressure of being the main forward - is an asset. Except for finishing being a letdown in some phases last season, he was doing all the other work needed of a striker. 

Imagine, that fucking clown of a coach was about to start a defender in midfield over him if the injury didn't happen.

Anyone else worried about no of new players coming in? We can't replace half a squad every summer (and sometimes winter) and expect them to integrate without a problems:
- Sarr
- Santos (he spent 2 preseasons with us, but I still count him as new), Essugo
- Estevao, Gittens, Pedro, Delap
 
That's 7 players already, with rumors of GK, LB, CB, another AM, that would take us to 11 new players, with 2 new players already ready to be included for next season- Quenda and Paez.

Why not sell the whole squad and buy a new set of players for the season. Most fans will never be patient enough with our young players in the squad. Funny enough they are still clamouring for the club to sign similar set of players elsewhere. It is more of a back and forth thing 😂. I thought we did go for young, more consistent and experienced like R Leao, Rodrygo etc.

Now this made me laugh 😆

Hope we get this level of winger play again some day:
 

Fucking hell! lol read it all now!! 

The Tunis goalkeeper is one of the worst I have ever come across. None of the goals should have been allowed to happen. 
Such low quality.
