Trump just said so and he never lies.
 
Hello

It's Alastair gold here

😴

Is that really you, AG, you boring motherfucker!

Here's an idea, fuckface.

When you've got your notes prepared for your latest youtube video - ask chatgpt or microsoft pilot to summary/condense it for you, then use THAT to do your vids - 50 minute videos down to 5 mins, just like that.

You're fucking welcome, you ass-faced racoon.
 
Young players will need opinions from their families not only on matters related to competition. The player's family can receive a large amount of money if the transfer value is good. In addition, it is related to the lives of the players in the future. He signs a signature for 5 or more years for his career, with many different offers. His current club knows that too. Like many other deals, every player has different competition from contractors, if you aren't the best one, of course, you will get fewer incentives.
Just like Eze, are you sure we are the number 1 choice in his mind? And you're sure he doesn't think he's capable of attracting the attention of clubs like MC or Woolwich? And surely they don't pay attention to Eze? I love Eze so much but in reality, I'm always skeptical that Eze is waiting for an offer from the MC or especially Woolwich. He doesn't need to rush his decision, like Doue

That's the nature of the game. Does the player and his family know if they are a priority for the club chasing them? How do they know that City aren't talking to him until Olmo or Eze becomes available?

The club need to persuade the player that they are the right place to go and the player needs to persuade the club that they are the right player to sign.
 
My point is that we should be using the academy players right now.

Put Lankshear as striker and Moore as RW.

We're trying to develop a title winning team over 2-3 years.

Moore is probably going to be a superstar and Lankshear has potential. If they are good enough they will over the next 1-3 years become established first 11 players.

We can’t however just wait for 2-3 years. That leads to whack a mole which has happened repeatedly down the years. You wait for the attack to get fixed by which time Romero has left and then you have to fix the defence and when you fix the defence the attack is then an issue.

We had a forward line of Bale-Kane-Son and a backline of Sanchez and Dier. We now have fixed our backline but need to fix our front line instead. If we want to challenge we need a complete team like City and Arse.

Standing still is going backwards in football. It is that competitive.
 
Son is not a 9

It does. Not work!

We’re in the EL that’s at least 8 European games


We need another striker as well as keeping Richarlison
toney in with richy would be decent. a forward 3 of rich/toney/kulu would give us a very different dynamic to werner/son/johnson. you actually get some respectable box presence with the first 3. personally would like to see us take a 25m punt on chiesa too. weve just released sessegnon and ndombele who cost nearly 100m, so whats 25m on someone whos actually good and has half a chance.

Hence why you need to be signing young players in the background as a contingency plan; for every 1st player.

It’s no coincidence we’ve loaded up on Phillips , Veskovic and Dorrington. Surely 1 of those 3 has the temperament to go along with their talent to make it.

A club in our posits cannot afford to dismiss academy products, even if you think they have no long term future in the first team, even showcasing them for a year or so boosts their values, which hopefully goes back into the team.

The 2011-14 class made the club a lot of money.
