At least Sanchez has recovery pace and the mentality and physicality to challenge in the air. Dier and Toby are much slower and leave us more vulnerable on the break and in set pieces imo. I'd much rather see them alternating pairing with Sanchez than be a first-choice pairing of their own.

But so what, he's a bit faster than Dier or Toby, and he seems like a cool guy, by that criteria I'd maybe be in line for a start if I were remotely cool.

He's poor in the air against strong strikers, weaker than he looks like he should be, no composure, poor on the ball, not consistent, not an organiser. That's the best our scouts could do with €42m burning a hole in their pockets? Seriously?

I like the guy and want him to prove me wrong, but he's regressed from his promisibg first season.

Imagine, after all this time we’ve been slagging off Levy, he delivers Bale, Regulion and Diallo between now and October.

I think people can still criticize Levy for not bringing in a striker earlier, especially if it's Diallo or someone his level, given the run of matches this month.

However, when the window opened, when the season started and when the window closes completely messed with a lot of people's freak out clocks. If anything, it's pushing these deals that normally would be the last week of the window up a couple weeks as all the leagues try to consolidate their rosters.

We will see where things stand on October 5th.

With all the bale rumours, and people saying it's not a levy signing and he won't do it as no sell on value or he will fuck it up cause that's just what he does.
Have any of yous thought maybe levy has changed, before hand he would never of hired Jose to start, splashed 25 Mill on stevie in January! Done an amazon doc, maybe he's changing, maybe he will get the deal done and surprise us all, wishful thinking but I fucking hope so.

Personally it's exactly what I would expect from Levy (from a certain perspective).

It's about getting the status of our club to a higher level, which I think is something he wanted to do from the start:

- Keeping star players (never did I hear a story like "Levy doesn't want to give Son/Kane their new wage demands")
- Providing a world class stadium
- Signing one of the biggest names in football with Mourinho
- Expanding our brand through the world via Amazon doc
- Expanding sponsorship portfolio with more commercial liaisons
- Trying to keep our club in the CL as it gives the most exposure global exposure

(Attempting to) signing Bale is just another example.

I know the board failed in multiple ways along the years
