They seem to compliment each other perfectly. Martinez is strong and aggressive and Varane is always in the right position. Big bonus is both of them are comfortable playing out from the back. Early days but the signs are positive.

1. Define style of play 2. Clear out fringe players and those that don't fit with the style of play 3. Promote and develop youth 4. Improve current 1st team players technically, morale and confidence 5. Compete for Top 4 and a good cup run

And Gareth Bale? He might be on loan but he's still a RM player and cost £90M....

Florentino Perez has been claiming poverty and that football can't survive without the ESL. But it is his club, that for decades now, has spent vast amounts of money on player transfers and wages. In 2001 they signed Zidane for a reported fee of around €75M..... at the time the record transfer...

Real Madrid with 13 titles will go down as team winning the Super League the most times.

I hadn't realised that only Spurs and Arsenal are the only teams to score against us in that list...

The best thing VdB has done all game is to leave the ball for Mason. Really sloppy from everyone all over the pitch.

How much do you think he's worth now compared to his transfer fee? He's 29 and played 28 games or so for Madrid in 2 years. I think the best they could hope for is to loan him out like Bale.

This depends a lot on who might leave. Cavani Pogba DDG/Henderson If none of the above leave, I'd put a RW and CB as a top priority. I would guess we'll make 1-2 'first team' signings, and a couple of prospects. We signed Amad in January, so hope that doesn't come out of the summer budget.

If by some miracle we do go through both comps this week, can someone please guarantee that we can start another thread of similar ilk about the QF's and SF's? I would hate to see any positivity :wenger:

Yanay-ted!!

"And it's live" As Martin Tyler announces the beginning of the match in front of an empty stadium. Seems to have lost it's meaning during COVID and seems rather dated now.

I honestly don't know much about him but looking forward to seeing what he can do. He has competition in Pellestri to get a spot in the squad, who has been impressive for the U23's this season. I wouldn't be surprised if Ole introduces him slowly and he get's the odd game on the bench in the...

I agree with you regarding the sideways passing. It's very noticeable with Fred and Matic, that their first thought is to look forwards with their passing. We were very sideways passing a season or so ago, but gradually they are becoming more progressive. Fred's attitude and energy is superb...

I know what you're saying here, but the season kicks off on 12th Sept. All the teams around the top 4 are strengthening, Chelsea especially, and if we're not careful we'll be playing catch up again this season. We need to get players in early, to train with the team, understand Ole's vision...
