Abraxas's latest activity

  • It could be that. I'll have to see if a mate has the CD or even try streaming it and see if there's a discernible difference. The new Priest is very good, as always really.
  • Excellent. This was such a brilliantly inventive and interesting title. A little bit of refinement and it has 10/10 potential.
  • What did people think of the "new" Cannibal Corpse album? Just picked it up on Vinyl thinking I can't go too far wrong buying blind, it's CC - they don't do shit albums. But it's a lot muddier than I'd like. Not sure that G tuning is doing much...
  • There just isn't one key attribute for a Manchester United manager. There's loads of qualities you need, it's very hard to nail it down to one most important thing because if you're not the full package you will get found out. The job is far too...
  • Neither would even be on my long list. But I'd rather have Potter. Who himself has shown no capability to manage a club this size. In fact I think he demonstrated the opposite, that he was wholly incapable at this stage. If ever, it also takes a...
  • He's had his job to play for all season when we've been shipping goals and chances left right and centre so I'm not sure the look really matters at this stage. It probably earns him a bit more credit to set his stall out to look at players like...
  • Seems a good athlete which is very important for a CB these days if you want proactive football risking the 1 v 1s. You can't necessarily manufacture that easily - see Lindelof and Maguire. We'll see, hard to say on a few games. If he plays...
  • What a beautiful goal that was. Perfect technique. Very hopeful in a couple years he could be a very special player. At the moment he's a special talent but he has the potential and seems to have the character to actually become that top player...
  • He had a couple of decent moments that presented opportunities for team mates but was overall quiet. He needs to put himself about more and use his strengths, and he needs to be more direct with his runs to make a statement that he's the man to...
  • Let's be honest, we wouldn't have a fecking clue. But if I put my FM hat on I'd be looking at sifting this squad into the ones I give a crap about going forward and the ones I want rid of. Some are past a point of return and that needs to be...
  • You're not wrong in your assessment, but no, we won't get all that done for a variety of reasons. FFP being chief among them. Logistically with international football being another. Possible sluggishness of getting key staff into place another...
  • What a situation it is when an ancient Jonny Evans looks one of the more viable options in our defence. It's partly credit to him that he's looked after himself and still has good ability, but it's a very sad indictment on the likes of Maguire...
  • Abraxas replied to the thread Casemiro | 2023/24 Performances.
    A huge waste of money. A professional recruitment department doesn't fall for Madrid selling an old man at the end of his career. It's just negligence. Doesn't matter what fans think or thought, they are supposed to be professional people and to...
  • Abraxas replied to the thread On the positive side ....
    Not sure about Mount I don't see anything there, but Onana has improved quite a bit now which suggests GK might not be an immediate concern, Mainoo is genuinely exciting, so is Garnacho, and Hojlund has a real chance. Fairly good prospects in...
  • Sure, I see no reason to be pessimistic. They've cut to the heart of the problem over the last decade or so which is no strategic direction. We can see that with their appointments and expected appointments. After this long lacking success you...
