spiriticon's latest activity

  • The more I see him play, the more I see a Lukaku regen. Good pace, terrible touch, not that great in the air. Even then, I'm not sure he'll be half the fox in the box that Lukaku is. There was a period where he was in the right places at the...
  • Those that want to see the football that Ajax played, they will never see that. It's not my words, it's straight from the horse's mouth. Those that want to see what ETH is cooking with this zero defence kamikaze style, fair play, there's...
  • The stupid thing is that ETH has already specifically come out to say that he won't (or can't) play the football that got his Ajax team famous for that half a season, which is the sole reason why most here wanted him hired. I'm not sure what the...
  • Qualifying for the CL last season was a pointless waste of time in the end since we got booted out this year's competition before the dust even settled. The Europa League is more our current standard but I don't trust that ETH can manage...
  • spiriticon replied to the thread Michael Olise.
    He's ok but not spectacular. I don't know what price we are willing to pay for him and that fills me with fear. If we pay a 90 million quid fee and give him 300k a week straight off, he'll be going back to Palace on a loan in 2 years. He's no...
  • This manager gets more leeway and time than any of our past managers ever got, despite being demonstrably worse. So typical of our club these days. We sack and sack and sack and the guy that brings us a thrashing every week we decide to keep...
  • I thought Dave needed replacing in 2018. When he got a new 350k contract I nearly died, but even last season he is still twice the shot stopper that Onana is. But here is the thing, if we implement a ball playing style from the back, then Onana...
  • I hoped he'd give us 3 years at his best but it looks likes it's going to be just a few good patches here and there since he joined. Sad but we knew the risk.
  • spiriticon replied to the thread Mason Mount's Misfortune.
    Possibly more invisible than Tom Cleverly.
  • FML. Onana simply isn't the keeper you want if the gameplan is based on conceding 20 shots a game. We need someone with twice his reflexes.
  • Aye but De Gea is free and available now. Sell Onana to the first buyer in the summer and then we get another keeper and try again. But we won't be asking ETH for his opinion again.
  • There's constantly so many injuries because ETH cannot manage injuries. He hasn't a clue about managing player's effort in game, managing a players minutes or managing a player's recovery schedule.
  • I genuinely think its time to bring De Gea back.
  • If he wants to play Ole ball next season, he needs to swallow his pride and re-sign De Gea. No feck it, get this faker the feck out of this club
  • Only Erik Ten Hag would buy a keeper that's good with his feet and shit at everything else, and then decide to play 'fast transition' based football Wasting everyone's time. Bring back De Gea if you're not going to implement a consistent ball...
