xPetrCechx 13,582 Posted August 13, 2016 Share Posted August 13, 2016 We learn nothing from the previous summer. we didn't buy the right players, in the right time, early at the transfer season, to work on the team coordination, like before the last PL title we won...

It's too big 625 Posted August 13, 2016 Share Posted August 13, 2016 Any quotes from that article or is this the typical narrative the media is following on from after our poor season and somewhat limited transfer activity? He told the press yesterday the market is tough at the moment because of the crazy fees, so I assume this is what the article means by "frustrated" Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fernando 6,603 Posted August 13, 2016 Share Posted August 13, 2016 I said it before and say it again, the best thing about Mourinho woeful season is that it got rid of Mourinho shadow. For many years no one stack to Mourinho, but after last season he set the lowest standards ever in the Roman era. And that finally put to rest that shadow that hang around the club and incoming managers. After last season I really hope the club sees thing different and lower their standards for incoming managers. And maybe this will work in favor of Conte. But again only if the club back the manager in the transfer window and not make stupid buys. If they are cutting back in transfer then they should seriously cut back their standards for the team.

On the up side, "We're waiting, we have a plan", is encouraging and to my mind translates as; bids are in,the door has not been closed on them so there's hope but, in case they don't come to fruition, we also have a plan B with perhaps a plan C and more backing that up.That all sounds very organised and sensible, especialy if we are involved in one or more of these transfer chains where our link has already been agreed in principle and we're just waiting for the the other pieces to come together.... On the other hand, Antonio's body language did not suggest any great confidence that anything was actually going to come off. There was no sense that he was trying to conceal any deals he knew were very likely to happen. Quite the opposite if anything. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There was no sense that he was trying to conceal any deals he knew were very likely to happen. Quite the opposite if anything. It's just too late for the big name signings. Unless their club already got a replacement, they simply won't let them go for anything but an absurd amount of money. At this point, the most attainable players are aspiring/younger ones, but even those, the better ones, have been moving to other clubs. Sadly this squad as it is simply can't challenge for anything and is a couple of injuries away from another fiasco. I honestly never seen anything like it... you can compare us to liverpool or arsenal, but when they had their down seasons, they still had abundance of players: all they needed was a couple of youngsters deliver to challenge (like liverpool did at one point). We on the other hand, do not have the number of youngsters (to play the odds) and neither do we have the overall quality in the senior players. bellion 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Unionjack 7,531 Posted August 14, 2016 Share Posted August 14, 2016 Conte hints at 30-goal target for Costahttp://www.fourfourtwo.com/news/conte-hints-30-goal-target-costa#lrhQmHqmQmx1sWYA.99 WOWWW!! So Costas getting 30,Lukakus gotta get 20+, Bats 15. Wonder what Eden and the rest of the lads gonna get between them? Leagues ours! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tomo 21,751 Posted August 15, 2016 Share Posted August 15, 2016 This summer we have signed the best CM in the league, a forward with huge potential and are actively chasing the best defender attainable to us. If we pull Kalidou off we have signed a new top spine that will serve us for the next six years, and we still have people constantly bashing the board for no reason. Id be genuinely worried for some people if we operated on a transfer committee like Liverpool do, imagine this place if we signed Klavan and a late 90s Arsenal reject?

We also need a natural LB and move Cesar to his natural RB position. Im sick of playing right footed full backs on the left. We sold Luis with him only starting a handful of games and told Baba his to attacking . Let's just pay the money and get Rodriguez. Would suit us very nicely.

skottytee 12 Posted August 15, 2016 Share Posted August 15, 2016 On 8/4/2016 at 8:22 PM, The Skipper said: I'd be more willing to give Batshuayi a chance than sign Lukaku to be honest. We need another attacking player, but it doesn't necessarily have to be a pure striker like Lukaku. I wouldn't mind if we signed a top winger and moved Hazard central as a second striker, for example. Yeah but an injury to Bats and if Diego sulks around all season again and we'l be well short. Having said that I guess we dont have europe (man that's gonna be hard to get used to!) so dont need as big a squad Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
