Our pre-season has been nothing short of a disaster. Yes I know all clubs have had their pre-season cut short but we have had everything go wrong.
Transfers coming in at the last minute has caused a negative storm amongst the fans and media. This has rubbed off on the players. Even Shaw commented we needed players in to strengthen. Of course the lack of signings will affect the players. The one signing we did get early doesn’t even start a Premier League showing he’s not a player we required to strengthen the first 11.
Our club captain gets arrested in Greece.
Our young prodigy gets sent home from England trying to break self isolation rules in another country.
Wan Bissaka goes to a country which required 2 week self isolation on return so he missed the slim preseason training we had.
Pogba got COVID. Whether this can be blamed for his diabolical performance so far I don’t know but he should have been dropped already after the Brighton game.
Bar Pogba catching COVID all of this could have been resolved by the club. These are high value assets doing what they want in a time where COVID is causing entire countries to sit at home. Where is the leadership at the club telling these guys what they should and shouldn’t be doing?
Is it any wonder we have started so badly this season. I expect it to continue as well. If anyone expects a mercenary like Cavani to change anything you are wrong. Once he realises no one can cross the ball he will waiting to leave.
