I doubt it will be the same shit. It will be a completely different system, Richarlison playing as the 9 with a regular run of games, and hopefully both are back to a more regular form. The point still remains that we wouldn't have Kane to save our asses, but I can't see how both of those guys can't contribute FAR more than they did last year.

Because they'll play together and they won't work well together, both are players that just score goals and creates nothing, simply won't work if we have 3 players upfront with only one of them that can pick a pass. We saw that last season some games, is win the ball, pass to Richarlison or Son, lose the ball, we should be able to keep posession and create chances, we'll create so litte with those two, unlesse we find creativity in other positions.

If I had a choice, I would. At least he is proven to be a Good Keeper in the EPL

In the same Vein

The question is, 'Who is willing to pay 19 million for Vicario, if thats good value for money'? Remember, he has no EPL experience.

This is where you list all the bidders.

Genuine question: How much Premier League experience do you need as a keeper?

I get an outfield player - the pace of the game, higher quality, etc - but is that much is different from league to league for a keeper?

Goals are the same size. Area is the same size. Penalty spot is the same distance away. Shots come from anywhere.

Do you guys get paid by Levy or something? Have you been promosed tickets to the next Beyonce concert? Or are you Simon Jordans Love Child? You seem mighty offended every time Levy gets called out for the Ass that he is.

Look at the goalkeeper choice. I suppose you believe we got our first choice?

8th on the log and you still want to protect him. You gotta be kidding.

You really are something.

Let me break it down for you:

Calling out your Levy hysteria and being a fan of Levy are two different things. Your brain may only be able to comprehend binary, but trust me, there are so many levels between "I hate him" and "I love him."

The goalkeeper choice: there is literally a verifiable quote saying that he was Ange's pick. Was Levy supposed to buy someone that was more expensive and not the manager's choice? Would that have made you happy, my dear?

Yeah the problem is that like most people on the forum, I don't care what you tell me. You have zero authority, you just like to stamp your feet, disagree, add people to your shitty little heading & pretend you're a hard-nut. You are laughable.

This is nothing to do with nuance - you straight up going from 'die levy die' and attacking Levy in posters to this sort of shit. It's a complete 180 because you're a fucking nutcase, frankly. Like straight up mental.

Also, for your own good stop declaring yourself the fucking 'winner' in online arguments just because you were last in every egg and spoon race at school.

Just leaving it there. FYI to make life easier, I’ve put this abusive disgrace on ignore.

:tanguythumb:
 
Maddison will finally fill the Eriksen size hole we have had for the past few years. Very good signing, he’ll add a cutting edge to our attack 100%.

When I think about it he’s more of a hybrid of Dele and Eriksen in that he can pick a pass, make delayed runs into the box, link midfield and attack as well as score goals. The more I think about it it’s an exciting signing.

Definitely.

I’m really looking forward to seeing him play!

Excellent signing (assuming it happens).

Pretty much what's missed in our midfield. If we are to try Richarlison and Son together that's what we need, a lot more of crative players.

Your lack of basic comprehension skills is even more incredible.

Also I believe I’ve already told you. Don’t quote me. Nothing you have to say interests me.

Now, I’ll leave you with one very, very simple and clear message so that even you can understand.

I am in the Levy Out camp. BUT I am not so pig headed in that view that I will blame levy for everything under the sun. I will give credit where it’s due, and criticise where I think criticism is warranted.

Life is not black or white. There’s nuance. Something I’m afraid that you and your hardcore posse of ‘Levy is the devil’ comrades are incapable of understanding.

Hope that helps. Please don’t bother me again. I’m not interested.

And yes, this is the win I think it is.

So where's your bidders to pay £40 mil for Raya, third time of asking, if you don't have any don't bother to reply,
Click to expand...

There werent any. I didnt say there were. There were rumours other EPL clubs had enquired about Raya. If ita true I dont know. If you didnt understand and I wasn't clear, "I believe it better to sign a 40 million tried and tested EPL keeper, than to sign a 19 million keeper that hasn't played in the EPL."

Now your turn. If Vicario is such a brilliant buy, where there any other bids on him at a mere 19 million?

Quite a lot, depending on what type of keeper you are. DDG struggled a shit-load with the Premier League when he first arrived here, Ferguson was very clear on that. He needed to bulk up & learn to deal with a more set-piece oriented, physical penalty box.

Things are a lot more direct here. Kepa's had a mare with it as well. This isn't me saying this young lad will have the same issues at all (I have never watched him play) but even as a keeper the game here will have different challenges.

Would you criticise the signing of Lenglet IF we were to sign him ?
Click to expand...

It depends. If he was signed as first choice LCB on a huge salary and long-term contract, I would. That being said, that opinion would be from my vantage point. I have no idea if Ange fancies him and sees him as a really good fit for this position.

If he was signed on a lowish salary as a backup, I probably would be OK with it. Same caveat as above applies, though.
