  1. A reminder on Liverpool, Arsenal, City's ascend

    You forgot at least 5 transfer windows and 22 personally handpicked players, otherwise he is set for the fall.
  2. Mason Mount | Confirmed

    Still don't see how he fits in, if we play him and Bruno together there is still no ball carrier who would connect our defensive and offensive phase plus you call for being overrun in the midfield. The more we chase him the more stupid we look, if we can't get him for a reasonable price just...
  3. Mason Mount | Confirmed

    Maybe it could work if diamond is used in the defensive phase: Frimpong - CB - Martinez - Shaw -------Bruno - Casemiro - Rabiot -------------------Mount -----------------ST - Rashford When in attacking phase set up wcould be 3-2-3-2 something like this: -----------CB - Martinez - Shaw...
  4. How do we solve our midfield problem?

    Playing 2 midfielders while Bruno is acting more as a forward would maybe work if we had Vieira and Makelele as 2 holding mids but unfortunately that is not the case. Mid 3 is the only way to go and real CDM is a must and someone as Frenkie De Jong (or similar) next to him, Donny (or someone...
  5. Declan Rice

    Tchouameni Kamara Soumare Zakaria Locatelli Merino Zubeldia Laimer Brozovic Just from the top of my head. Is there really no one among them that would do the same job as Rice (or even better) for half the cost (some of them even more than half)?
  6. Fred - £47m well spent

    We really need to upgrade on him. He is a solid player but for that money that we paid for him I expect a great midfielder, not a solid one. Marcelo Brozovic from Inter is entering the last year of his contract, we could get him for a cut-price and have a versatile midfielder who can protect...
  7. Bruno Fernandes | 2020/21 Performances

    He wasn't at his best against Leipzig and he still managed to create some good chances. What I'm really afraid of is that he will get fatigued and eventually injured since poor guy can't get some rest cause we are completely dependent on him. He deserves much better than Europa league and...
  8. Harry Maguire | 2020/21 Performances

    So, we need to buy a 60mil £ CB to cover for weaknesses of our world record CB... We could've bought Dunk or Tarkowski for half of his fee for the similar results.
  9. Potential Matic Replacements

    I would like to see Marcelo Brozovic as Matic's replacement. He plays as a single pivot in midfield 3 but he is versatile enough to play any role in midfield. Guy has an iron lungs, can run for days, he is good defensively but also contributes in attack (3 goals and 6 assists in Serie A this...
  10. Jack Grealish / signs new 5 year contract

    If we didn't have a gaping hole in some positions I wouldn't have anything against signing him. If we will have a decent amount of money to spend I would rather spend it on Sancho, new CDM and alternative for Shaw. Honestly, if we seek for the depth we should look for Buendia, Brooks and...
  11. Jack Grealish / signs new 5 year contract

    It's ridiculous that some folk think that we can splash 60+mil€ for the squad player like we have an endless flow of oil money to spend.
  12. Jack Grealish / signs new 5 year contract

    I would like him as a starter but we already have 3 players who can cover the left wing and we have Bruno as a CAM. There is no point in buying him just to be a squad player when we have other positions that are more critical (RW, CDM and CB) and we know he won't be cheap. If we really want a...
  13. Would you sack or keep Ole? (Poll reopened)

    I think Ole should be judged after next season. He will have a squad to his preferences (hopefully the situation with RW will be solved this summer). If there will be no consistency to our performances and if we don't get top 4 comfortably with this team then there will be no excuses and we...
  14. Jack Grealish / signs new 5 year contract

    How would we incorporate both Bruno and Grealish in the squad in first 11? Both of them would be wasted as CMs in 4-3-3 plus it would be defensively weak and I can't see us playing Grealish on the left since that's Rashford's and Martial's position. Maybe 4-2-2-2 with Grealish as LAM and Bruno...
  15. Jarrod Bowen

    Wish we could bring him in this few hours that are left. Reasonable price and weekly wages (as they can be in this day and age) plus God knows we don't have a right winger, there is no point in playing Greenwood there when he and Martial are the only fit and healthy forwards that we have for the...
