I didn’t say they’ll ’go away’ just that they’ll encounter difficulties offloading the players they’re buying and that the strategy they have will largely rely on those players working out.This fantasy that they'll go away is just that, fantasy.
All the 30+ year old hate/rivalry isn't gonna change that.
Also, another 2 or 3 games last season and they'd almost certainly have caught us. They were far better than us for the last 1/2 - 1/3 of the season.
I will be very disappointed if we don’t get a backup goaltender.
Nope.
Disagree was for your pathetic attitude, gooner boy.
Make yourself look silly with every post you make and now you’ve just embarrassed yourself again.
Pipe down Moaning Menace.
Cue disagrees from the rest of the pathetic Moaning Menace posse
Edit: Oh look, spot on prediction.
Mon pote, how on earth can you think we have a pressing need on the right when we have a player you have consistently defended there?We really need a dribbly winger. The right is more pressing than the left so a dribble right winger would make a huge difference to our game. I’m a Johnson fan but if we spend big anywhere it should be there.
does that inc sales
lol fml
Because we need a different type of player there. Johnson is not a dribbly winger. He is extremely quick and able to find spaces to score (he gets in great positions). However he’s not a 1v1 specialist.Mon pote, how on earth can you think we have a pressing need on the right when we have a player you have consistently defended there?
Apologies for the bad french in advance.
It cannot be stated often enough. Other big clubs navigate the rules to sustain success. Levy hides behind the rules to sustain long term mega profits on his investment.Unfortunately that is true, I think levy over the years, has tried to play the waiting game on these clubs that spend big.
So far it hasn't worked for him, the rules haven't really done anything to stop them, they just get their lawyers to circumnavigate the rules.
Same as city, any mid table club would be relegated. city won't be, fine at best is all they will receive.
Yusuf Yazici.Lille let that Turkish lad leave on a Bosman, AM, RW, CF, 26? Yazıki is it?
Yusuf Yazici.
Very good technically, can score goals and cracking ones at that. But also very streaky, undisciplined, lazy...
Lille twice sent him out on loan, so they're not that enamored with him. Neither were the two clubs where he went on loan, including one from Turkey.
So thanks but no thanks.
He's very quick no doubt but do you think he shows enough aggression with his quickness in terms of making runs in behind to threaten the FB and set the whole back 4 deeper by a few yards?Because we need a different type of player there. Johnson is not a dribbly winger. He is extremely quick and able to find spaces to score (he gets in great positions). However he’s not a 1v1 specialist.
I think Kulu is much better than Johnson in terms of beating his man but he also, imo, offers technical security when he receives and plays the ball.Kulu same.
I think we lack that down the left as well but Son has Mikey Moore behind him and I wouldn’t want to take minutes from him.
Johnson would be an excellent option off the bench if he showed the desire to make runs in behind that threaten the FB, if he tried to take on his man for pace more often because that's the only weapon he has, if he was able to receive the ball under pressure and keep it, if he was able to make combinations with teammates both in terms of passing and his movement but in my opinion it's too many if's for him to be considered a relevant piece in a team that's competing for trophies.Johnson is an excellent option to have in rotation and from the bench but I think we need a different tool who is ready to play now.
wait hang on...what about the 15 G/A?We really need a dribbly winger. The right is more pressing than the left so a dribble right winger would make a huge difference to our game. I’m a Johnson fan but if we spend big anywhere it should be there.
Time for Lange and his database to earn their money. Mohamed Amoura or similar out of nowhere ? Or a more established name like Eze? Earn your €€€
