Shared this before. But worth repeating. I know various business owners who have dealt with the Levy family through the clothing trade in days past. It was routine for them to agree deals and at the last moment demand changes to the deals which greatly increased their advantage. More often than not, the suppliers were forced to accept the changes.Because you’re omitting a huge percentage of players by doing so. Won’t matter for us though as long as levy can do a deal and feel like he’s got one over somebody.
He bullied our CBs so wouldn't fit our ethos of "stand at least 3 feet away from opponent goal keeper at corners mate"Same. Was a problem for us as well.
Has a bit of Drogba in his mentality. Relentless and goes after every single hoof from a CB or GK but can also play in tight spaces and create himself space to get a shot off. Makes clever runs as well.
Yeah can’t be fucked with another thread hijacked into the same circle jerk, crywank about “tactics”.He bullied our CBs so wouldn't fit our ethos of "stand at least 3 feet away from opponent goal keeper at corners mate"
Pool are never gonna let him go while they are chasing the league and CL. Alisson has a propensity to get injured in recent years too. He’ll go in the summer when Mardmidashvilli joins.Thinking a 6 month loan for Kelleher to solve the GK problem. Maybe with an option to buy. Kelleher wants first team football and if he can maintain his place after Vic returns from injury then he might see us a viable.
Forster has generally done well since the Vic injury, but has obviously got limitations in his game play.
Saw him absolutely destroy RB Leipzig in the CL. Interesting player. Was highly rated as a teenager and then had some injuries and illness.Former Celtic boss Ange Postecoglou is reportedly eyeing a January move for Celtic winger Nicolas Kuhn, with Tottenham Hotspur among several Premier League clubs considering an approach for the in-form German.

Thing have changed since Harry was a manager. And there is a reason why he no longer is a manager...
Kelleher is more likely to stay at Liverpool and become their No 1 in the summer if they let Allison go. He’s the best back up keeper in the league IMO. And better than most first choice for many teams.Pool are never gonna let him go while they are chasing the league and CL. Alisson has a propensity to get injured in recent years too.

Watched a good bit of Ipswich v Chelsea and Delap looks great every time I see him. Strong, tenacious, busy, tough, good shot. Could be someone’s striker for the next decade. He won’t be that for Ipswich.
He’s hinted he’s gonna leave in the summer. And Mardmidashvill is an absolute star. I don’t see us going for him at the price Liverpool would want. I think we’ll probably have to go abroad and develop a young keeper.Kelleher is more likely to stay at Liverpool and become their No 1 in the summer if they let Allison go.

No chance we get him without serious cash
OofManchester City included a 20% sell-on clause as well as a buyback clause in the event the club want the striker to return to the Etihad.

Yes, head-coaches won't take all the right decisions when buying players but so does the scouts as well, even after watching a player for several season and doing thorough analysis of thru live games and hours of videos.

Are managers even more knowledgeable about footballers not within their immediate proximity than your average football fan is? These guys spend most of their time on the training ground, dealing with their own players. What makes anybody think that they have the necessary energy and desire to keep up with dozens of players from other teams and leagues in their limited spare time?
"Back the manager by signing players that are handpicked by him" has to be one of the most misguided shouts in terms of squad building. The ultimate goal should be the exact opposite: To establish a recruitment system where manager has minimal impact, because there are already specialists who are employed specifically for this purpose.
Looks great but I imagine the club has high hopes that Lankshear can become the same for us and we already have Solanke.I’d hate playing against him. You’d know you are coming off at full time covered in cuts and bruises. But very talented too. A rare coming together of styles.
A winger who can actually dribble and beat players absolutely is a key requirement.
