Yeah, Romero needs someone who will keep him in check and cover his attacking instincts. He's easily our best CB at the moment when he can reign in his aggression. It doesn't need to be anyone big name - just a player who knows how to play in a defensive unit (like Toby did under Poch) rather than as an individual.
Seems like all the Celtic fans I know are seething about the idea of Ange coming to us, but then again they were seething about Rodgers to Leicester too.
As soon as Nagelsman (or any other) starts making major demands you have to walk away
They either want the job as per the brief or they don't.....we've already been down that path with Conte
I think you're taking it a bit too literally.
The point is no player can enjoy being asked to defend for 90 mins.
Just getting a whiff of a manager who will want them to attack will be a positive in their mind.
His demands appeared to be shaping the philosophy of the club. For me that is fine, a Naglesmann Rangnick duo as manager and DoF would have fixed us up, u less he was making outrageous financial demands it was a missed opportunity.
But he might have been making outrageous financial demands.
I've just learned he was Migrant Number 24...

I mean, the board should be making money available to fix the squad without selling Kane.
We aren't seeing Liverpool selling Salah to afford a whole new midfield even though they need one.
Guess what?They will get a whole new midfield as well, even though they just spent 100m on Darwin, 60m on Diaz, 40m on Gakpo.
That's because they don't have lightweight owners.
Of course not. But that doesn't mean that they don't have a style of football that they prefer.
Not seeing them sell Salah yet, whilst also not seeing them buy any midfielders yet.
However, the sales of Coutinho, Suarez, Sterling, Torres, Mane over the past several years have been to allow them to build the side. They sell a fuck of a lot more players that they would rather keep than we do.
Seems to work for them, but that wasn’t the point you were making.
Reckon we do something similar for the reveal

Seems to encourage good football, isn't a grumpy arrogant prick, and isn't Brendan Rodgers, so it's a mild thumbs up from me.

It looks like he was originally number "94" and wrote over the top of it
