NishC300 1,865 Posted September 6, 2014 Share Posted September 6, 2014 Well I was saying pre match that our defense is shaky.This is just a sign of how shaky it can be at times.While entertainment I still prefer a very tactical discipline display then being all over the map.Yea. We looked shaky against two newly promoted teams in the previous match too. Defend like this at the Ethiad and they'll punish us. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Defend like this at the Ethiad and they'll punish us.Seasons barely starting, of course we're not gonna be in tip top form. City lost to Stoke so let's not act like they're destroying the field right now. We, and City, will get things together sooner rather than later.

Fernando 6,743 Posted September 6, 2014 Share Posted September 6, 2014 Jose Mourinho: Financial fair play benefits traditional giantsWell look on the bright side, now we can finally try to implement more of our youth academy players. In two or three years it will be more conducive. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post! The Chels 2,502 Posted September 6, 2014 Popular Post! Share Posted September 6, 2014 Uhmmmm Chelsea and Roman was the biggest backers of this FFP.Yes because we're already established as a big club (albeit not to the same extent as the likes of Real). Do you think Roman would have supported this when he'd just taken over? No chance. darrus, Madmax, bababoom and 4 others 7 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Myself 793 Posted September 6, 2014 Share Posted September 6, 2014 Since we're talking about this already, I think the only suitable replacements for Mourinho (god forbid he leaves in the next 5 years) are all unavailable. So Luis Enrique, Klopp and Simeone.Frank Lampard has to manage us at some point as well Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheOneChan95 225 Posted September 6, 2014 Share Posted September 6, 2014 Jose Mourinho: Financial fair play benefits traditional giantsAgree with this. It does benefit us to a certain degree though since there wouldn't be another City popping up. The Prem is competitive enough as it is so I could live without it. The one to be careful of right now is United since this really benefits them. If they miss out on top 4 for a few seasons then I think as a whole, the gap between the New Rich(Us, City) and them would be closer. We may have had a brilliant transfer window but I doubt we can pull off deals the magnitude of Luiz and Mata every season. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We had an imbalance squad for the philosophy of Mourinho. Now that he sold that excess we will be back to square one in the coming transfer window. Meaning we will have to buy without much selling. This is where Mourinho must come good with implementation of younger players from the Academy. The club has spent a lot of money in this and will continue to do so, since this is one aspect that gets excluded from FFP calculations.

Also who to say with new signings come on in the players in the squad won't leave? For example lets say we sign Reus for 30m next summer and sell Salah for 5-10m or Schurrle for 20m, we are not really spending that much money on players.The days of us just splash out 50m on a new striker without selling anyone is over imo, maybe one last time next summer if Costa prove he isn't up to it fitness wise/form wise this season but from then on it will be much more like this summer, only new players coming in if we ship out our own.
