So impressive to see that level of intensity maintained through the game, taking into account it was about 28 degrees and how this whole starting 11 other than Cabal (beans too) was available last year where we could barely press for 20 minutes without collapsing under the reign of terror; that...

Whilst he appears to lack in technical ability from what we’ve seen so far, it’s still a step up from prior years with his physical prowess, pace and energy with that limitation than the previous filth we’ve had there in Sloth, Pellegrini, Frabotta, MDS and whichever cunt other than Cambiaso...

It is essentially that formation out of possession though, if we can’t win the ball back quickly.

That guy deserves the maximum of likes.

Can’t recall that. I think it was loans to Turkey, Russia and Sassuolo before we got rid. Absurd situation, thought he looked decent at Sampdoria, but then again quite a few did in that season they got to 4th and none of them hit any kind of height from memory after that point.

Ziegler was the ultimate biscuit. Signed on a free and never played a single competitive game but managed to stay on the books for 4 years.

Feels a bit odd if a 30million buy out clause exists. I’d like to believe we offered 35 million in deferred payments. If we’re willing to pay 9 million for a loan, then it would’ve made sense to commit and sack off a 3rd winger or Robokoop.

He doesn’t have a club and left in the summer. Maybe we should bring him back to solve our defensive crisis.

I’m sure he knew he was offside, but still wanted to hit the net just for confidence and sadly failed at it. He contributed a lot defensively and the press started with him. Sure that’s a low bar for a CF at a top club. His hold up play was very good, first touch looked decent and won quite a...

2 years without even a semblance of gameplan in possession of the ball other than pray for set pieces and get the ball wide to a wingback who sends in a yolo cross. Motta has managed to articulate a clear plan in possession of the ball within 1 competitive game. The opponent is irrelevant, we...

There were 6 players in the box when the first goal went in, and that was off a quick transition from our own half. Nice to see some desire to bust a gut, which seemed to have disappeared for a while.

1:0 Goldaniga OG. Like old times. Oh shit, here we go again.

I suppose at the very least, we will now have 10 months notice, to digest what appears to be the inevitable conclusion to this sorry mess.

De Ligt was very young, came off of one excellent season and landed with a huge signing on fee and wages that we would never be able to maintain for his next contract renewal. Vlahovic came off the back of 1.5 excellent seasons, but was clearly raw and brought in on a high exponential wage...

I can’t see them giving a 6m+ net salary, so it doesn’t make sense. Who knows at this stage.

We changed and struck a deal with MH370.

Pretty sure enel is a different type of ‘energy’ company (electrical).

Plusvalenza and they think he is worse than Emerson Royal, Calabria and Thiaw I would imagine.

It’s the first deal I’ve shit on. We are scrambling around to assemble an acceptable squad, and I’d rather we scrounged our pennies to buy a few good starters than piss it away on mediocre depth that isn’t much better than what’s there already. The way we are fishing for deals makes 3 million...

I’m aware he’s played as a CB in a 4 man defence and may be competent, but having watched him quite a few times I do think his characteristics serve him best as RCB in a 3. We’d essentially have 4 CBs who would all prefer to be in a back 3 because they aren’t reliable enough to play in a back 4...
