We have plenty of good players. Our midfield is ridiculously good. Joao, Cole, Neto and Estevao is an insane attack. Our two starting FBs are world class. Maresca just needs to go. Played boring ass football for so long with the level of talent we have. It isn't recruitment or BlueCo - this is a title winning team with healthy CBs/slightly better CBs; Maresca just isn't good enough. The MF is not ridiculously good. Or teams wouldn’t run over us as often as they do. Caicedo is very good, Enzo Fernandez is a passenger most games, Lavia’s always injured & the other lads are young and need to play more in the PL to get a grasp of it (Santos/Essugo). Reece is hit and miss in there. What is ridiculously good about that? Take Cole & Caicedo out of this team and it is pretty poor, which for £2.5bn spend is absolutely mad. Even with both of our starting fullbacks in from the start. Although Cucurella did dig us out of some holes last season in really poor games with goals. The new signings of Joao Pedro & Estevao are looking like they will be good additions. Joao making a big impact already but you cannot just pin everything on them from day 1, particularly not on a 17 year old kid in his first season in Europe. It’s not like they are coming into a side where there are top top players all around them either. When have good teams ever achieved anything big without elite GK or CBs? Thats on BlueCo & the sporting directors. It is clear that the recruitment is not done on Maresca’s say so, like with Potter & Poch before him so BlueCo are absolutely accountable for as much of the issues as the manager, if not more. This is not a major title winning team I am sorry, not even remotely close and to think that is absolutely crazy. A major title winning team has a very strong spine throughout their team… we have 2 top players in Moises & Cole who make a huge difference most games and not much else. Maybe throw Reece in there but again we are so poor defensively. Laylabelle and Mário César 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Reece especially, one of the best fullbacks in terms of final delivery and being asked to tuck in and play as a number 6 when we have the ball instead of bombing up and down and getting crosses into the box…. Players don’t tend to want to work as hard or as much as they should if they don’t respect/feel the managers tactics/philosophy. Would partly explain the softness in this side aside from the glaring lack of leaders and accountability in the squad because they are all being mollycoddled with the young side tag.

TheHulk 2,514 Posted just now Share Posted just now I'm starting to care less and less we losing or even winning for that matter, doesn't matter at all with these idiot owners. And when you think the cheek some fans had during the summer to defend the ownership and Maresca. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
