Good adaptive football thinking players would do us a world of good. Try something different like the unknown more than the usual go to big names in football.
We need to get away from this. This is what is wrong with the club. We buy stars that are actually average players that someone spotted on Football Manager 2022 and read their instagram post or twitter how they trained in Dubai or Spain. We don't need these kind of players. We need honest footballers that will give all for the club.Were on course for a change on our transfer policy but we usually tended to make one start signing each season and i don't It will change much.( we've had di maria, sanchez, Sancho, pogba etc etc)
So who will it be and on another note who do you think ot will.
Could either of de jong or de ligt be possibilities due to the ten hag link? Will it be the free agents dybala? The fan base favorite rice?
Discuss!
Yeah, he scored 3 goals (2 close offsides) against the Liverpool defence we barely managed 2 shots again.Is there anyone around here that actually watches the guy and has a valid opinion on him?
I know he's scoring some goals, but the few times I've watched him he didn't look really good, very very rough. He has a bit of Wan Bissaka about him and I'm really not comfortable with that.
The main thing that puts me off him is that we know based on his underlying data that he has massively overperformed this season. The last stat I saw was that he had 24 goals from an expected 14. That rate of returns won't keep going.Is there anyone around here that actually watches the guy and has a valid opinion on him?

You gave me flashbacks to the Sneijder thread.Strootman
If it hadn't already happened, I'd be joking someone will make a thread saying selling him was a mistake about now.Dan James, buyback clause for the win!
Alisson, Van Dijk, Keita, Diaz were all £50m and above. With Van Dijk and Alisson alone costing £147m. When Liverpool signed them two, that is when the performances on the pitch really started to pick up.If I could I'd put a cap on what we could spend on any individual signing this summer.
Looking at Liverpool (who are the best recent example of the sort of rebuild we need) they rarely spent more than £50m on any individual player as part of that rebuild.
