Surely. Surely this time. No?
Of course I don't defend our stupid board but imo as Ralf is only an interim he won't get any new signing. We don't even know what would be his role post summer.The reality the board has decided not to back Rangnick this January window (for Haidara or Zakaria) should tell everyone that they have another player in mind or are resigned to finishing outside the top 4 again.
75% of the PL midfields have bossed ours. In fact thats probably an underestimate.You could probably buy any of about 75 percent of the starting mids in the PL and they'd play week in week out for us.
I don't think that's an exaggeration.
I actually don't understand how people can misspell the names so... creatively. Is it a British thing or just not giving a feck?Haidara Touchenami
......... Bruno
Is the dream.
I originally had 90 and thought I'd dial it back a bit.75% of the PL midfields have bossed ours. In fact thats probably an underestimate.
Definitely the not giving a feck........I actually don't understand how people can misspell the names so... creatively. Is it a British thing or just not giving a feck?
McGuires and others come to my mind and I'm just wondering why the misspelling is still a thing.
Extremely unlikely. Think it'll be one of the leagues smaller clubs. Even then he'll play a bit part role.Just curious if we’re one of the teams linked to Eriksen. On a free, to compliment Bruno.
DOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOM!!What happens when we buy two midfielders and are still s***?
I'd be surprised. If it were a loan move for the rest of the season he'd do a job here, no doubt. But he'd represent the same kind of transfer activity we are now allegedly trying to move away from.Just curious if we’re one of the teams linked to Eriksen. On a free, to compliment Bruno.
You will complain when they turn into shite and say we need another midfield.Haidara Tchouameni

Loan? They released him from contract did they not?I'd be surprised. If it were a loan move for the rest of the season he'd do a job here, no doubt. But he'd represent the same kind of transfer activity we are now allegedly trying to move away from.
We need physicality in that midfield, an engine. Capable of passing.
If we signed a CM who can pass AND take a corner kick, we would probably win the league
Yeah, I know. I was just saying he'd only make sense as a very temporary measure for this season only until we hopefully clean house a bit this summer, which - if we're honest - probably won't happen. He'd be another player we'd not be able to offload and he's not exactly the deep lying midfielder we need, and defensively he brings nothing obviously. If we didn't have Bruno, it might be a different scenario, but even then, turning 30 with medical issues.Loan? They released him from contract did they not?
Ward Prowse in then.If we signed a CM who can pass AND take a corner kick, we would probably win the league

I know nothing about him so from my point of view he could up either way, success or failure. But if we’re going to spend 33m on him I dare say he won’t be a bench playerIf we are going to sign midfielders, who we are linked with are average in a average German league. Players get found out coming to this league that are better than these. Arguably even RR has been shocked at the quality of the Prem. I'd argue with the pace and lack of depth of quality in that league aside from a couple of clubs, Scott and Fred would look completely different.
The fact that people hate Mcfred, they are talking up players that most on here probably know very little about. We could just end up with another Player sat on the bench.....
You mean like Sancho isn't? Bruno being the exception, how many players come from another league in January, go straight into the first team and make a difference. The Prem is notoriously different to come to terms with and playing in midfield, that can take players a season to come to terms with. The only way I see us signing someone is if it's a long term target and not necessarily about the here and now. The season will run its course and only if we pick up a injury to the current midfielders, we may get someone on loan....I know nothing about him so from my point of view he could up either way, success or failure.

Has to be a wind up post surelyI think we have a good midfield it is just being managed terribly.
Rangrick is sadly worse than Ole.
Would like an uppgrade of course, but not sure the guys we are being linked with are that good.
We need Neves and Tchouameni and we win the league next season… seriously. We’ll have the funds as cavani, Martial, Jesse, Mata, Henderson, Pogba will free up some serious wagesAurelien Invasion. Denis Zakaria or Tchouameni.
That calibre of CDM is needed.
The CM should be more exciting if Pogba is leaving but one of those two are a must.
Maybe Neves or someone who is even better than Neves would complete it. A player that can pass and shoot.
we've got enough no 10s. (Mata, Lingard, Bruno, VDB)Just curious if we’re one of the teams linked to Eriksen. On a free, to compliment Bruno.
In a few months time three of those are likely gonewe've got enough no 10s. (Mata, Lingard, Bruno, VDB)
So we get a midfielder who might die on the pitch instead?In a few months time three of those are likely gone
Think of the views we'll getSo we get a midfielder who might die on the pitch instead?
