The problem has been constant change managers. Had we stuck with Conte for a while we long gotten rid of those duds. If we stick with Tuchel we can get rid of them and get players that fit the profile. I still think we did great with Lampard and improve on Tuchel. Tuchel has a slowdown but it's nothing that can be fixed with another season. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Moreover, even if Dembele is on the cheap side, I find it weird people want an injury prone player when the same people always complain about Pulisic being injury prone (even though he hasn't had a notable injury "caused" by himself in a long time). If you're paying £54m for a player, I'd expect them to hit more than 11 goals in a season. Players can get past injury issues when their young, well managed & have the right fitness routine in place. Also, keep in mind that he did play 34 games for Barcelona last season, not 5. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We have nearly a whole squad that's injury prone. And then we add another injury prone player. Can't make this up. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Because he has an injury record worse than Robben, who was labeled injury prone... Robben - 3 seasons. 19 Games missed, 110 days injured. Pulisic - 2.5 seasons. 45 games missed, 335 days injured.

He's been available for most games in the last season & a half. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Right but until this bloke can go a full season without 3 or 4 injuries that are a direct result of muscular imbalances vs direct contact, he'll always have that label.

Pizy 18,909 Posted January 20, 2022 Share Posted January 20, 2022 We haven’t even actually been linked with Dembele by a reliable outlet anyways so all this talk is pointless. He’ll go to whoever present Barca with the highest offer and I can’t see that being us. He’s more likely to go to someone like Newcastle or a club like that who want to make a splash. They need to show prospective targets that they can attract big names. West Ham would be another. We should wait until the summer and target Raphinha from Leeds if we want a new wide attacker.

Vesper 30,178 Posted January 20, 2022 Share Posted January 20, 2022 I cannot believe that some here are trying to sell the bollocks that Pulisic is not injury prone over the course of his career 😜 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pizy 18,909 Posted January 20, 2022 Share Posted January 20, 2022 Just saw Dembele has personally rubbished claims he wants to leave and all but confirmed that the club hierarchy is trying to force him out by talking shit about him to the press. They’re desperate to get his wages off their books. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
