Consistency should be right up the list of considerations for any CB as look at, along with injury record and attitude.
Luckily there seems to be a glut of good options to choose from at the moment.
While I agree that an established striker ala Isak would be ideal, with all the work we need to do on the squad I just don't think we will have the budget.
At his release clause i think Sesko looks like the best bet, unless we can pull an...
Yeah it was always a weird one that. Sign of the times I suppose. By the time I was sentient they were very much a nothing team with a funny looking kit. David Dunn, Chris Samba, Brad Friedel etc.
Always had a bit of a soft spot for them when I was a kid, no idea why. I think it was the silly kits.
And I thought Morten Gamst Pederson was a cool name.
Ah christ yeah, Diouf is a decent comparison unfortunately. Though I'm sure he cost relative peanuts at the time. Nightmare.
I wonder if we can con somebody into paying 25-30m for him even? Draw a line under it and move on.
Tuchels a great coach but not for me. We need to kick off the Ineos reign with someone stable, and he's never going to be that.
De Zerbi is overhyped I think. Southgate and Potter no way. Amorim, Inzaghi and Mckenna look to be among the best...
Ole would be great, but I don't know, surely he wouldn't accept it again?
Ruud if he's willing is a decent shout too. Mclaren has been out of the top job for too long for my liking.
Similarly to LVG, I quite like ETH as a person so would have loved to see him succeed. Very different to Jose who I thought should have been sacked after his Sevilla comments, or Moyes who you just had to feel bad for by the end.
But Jesus...
Kambwala's far from shit, he's just a kid with feck all experience. Bound to make mistakes while he finds his feet.
Very bad game today mind. We need 2 CBs in the summer with the majority of our current crop of crocks fecked off.
Agreed. If Evans is willing to give it one last season that'd be the ideal, realistic scenario. Clear out the dross and replace with quality, smart purchases.
Would we be the first club to win CL / EL / Conference if we did?
I don't hate the thought of it, so long as we play a proper, SAF style second string for the majority of the games.
Cultivating a winning habit is always a useful thing and we...
