Refreshing to see someone exhibiting sane approach on board…

If they would make the announcement, I could put this in his thread!

City won the league countless times without even employing a dedicated #9. They defend with freaking Ake and Stones! A team scores and a team defends. We can't score because we simply aren't very good and have not been very good for some time. Even smaller teams manage to outplay us because we are slow and pedantic pedestrian on the ball.

We play like shit... we have players who look completely clueless on the ball, like Mudryk. Players who are constantly injured. New signings who are clearly raw and their decisions showcase that. What would a striker possibly do in those conditions? win a point here and here? that's not what we need.

Defenders defend and attackers attack sounds so passe. I'm supposed to be the old one here. 😅

They have a structure in place, a style of play, and players that are levels above ours in most positions. The two aren't comparable in the slightest.

Our performances and our attackers are two different things. Are you aware you play awful but still win?

Two years ago we were in a CL final, so please drop the "some time" line. We haven't been able to score with regularity for "some time", though. My comment about needing players with end product is only part of the issue (a big one, IMO), but I'm fully aware we have issues all over the pitch, which obviously has an affect on the collective.

Sounds like if Real fail with Kane they will go for Lautaro

They will move for Håland, either now, or more likely, next summer.

I thought the reason they didn't move for him last summer was due to Endrick. I'm aware Haaland currently has some clause in his contract, but RM seemed adamant on allowing the former a clear path once he's able to join.

There isn't a better time for Kante to go

not true IMHO

We could have still gotten £60 to £80m for him right after the CL win.

We still would have won the UEFA Super Cup (he only played half the game, and did not play all that great) and FIFA World Club Championship (he also did not play that well at time, the Palmeiras MF dominated us at times, freanted not the full game of course) without him, of that I am convinced. We would have likely had Tchou as our DMF, because the people who blocked the Tchou buy (idiots, he would have only cost 35m to 40m then, Monaco needed money post COVID Ligue 1 financial woes) were the same who refused to sell Kante. If the decision to sell Kante was made, then I fully believe the board would have also valued Tchou and bought him, the two are linked in terms of mindset of the board powers that be who scuttled both from happening. The next two seasons, Kante was constantly injured.

I do not see Endrick as a CF

he is only 1.73m (and I think that is stretch job), so only an inch taller than Pessi

too short, no real presence in the air and may well have issues with hold-up play as well on high long passes forward

[Vesper 30,106]

I see Reals front 3 in 2 years as

LW Mbappe

RW Endrick

CF Håland

Anyone been watching Santos? Any chance he can realistically play this year for us?

Poch will decide that
