I like Antony Gordon a lot - performed well in the England shirt as well.

Just why didn't we sign him? plays off the left too. We were heavily linked. Then he went to Newcastle.

We should have just fucked Son off 18 months ago instead of making him captain and letting him rot in the team getting worse and worse as the months go on.

It's like we aren't a serious football team. We constantly make the wrong decision and seem to give players like Son game time based off sentiment.
 
Joelinton reminds me of Dembele, signed as a forward and converted into a top class CM.

Isak is a star.

Bruno was a top signing. They gambled and it paid off. When we gamble on french league players for big money they flop.

They aren't better than our squad under Poch but they really aren't far off. Just shows how far away we are from them.

Look at our squad, there is little genuine quality.

And what do the club do? sign more and more kids....depressing.

We really are run absolute atrociously on the football side. Recruitment, choice of manager, everything is just shite

Yep, and it's not that we don't spend money or that anyone woupd have really said Howe was anything but an interim.

Our squad under Pochettino was absolutely on another level for 2/3 years. It was that good
 
Out of that starting newcastle team tonali, guimares, isak on paper better than what we have. Add in gordon then. Yet look at them play towards us is night and day

They are still boring and predictable to watch but yeah that starting 11 is clear of us by a good margin right now.

Players we have that start for them:

Vicario
Romero
VDV
Spence
Kulusevski
Maybe Maddison depending on the system


Players they have that would start for us:

Tonali
Bruno
Maybe Joelinton but he’s overrated
Isak
Gordon

Actually closer than I thought tbh

Is that an actual question? In hindsight I think he made the right choice.

Agree with Sonny (I like him) but he can't stay after this extension & it's gonna be a shit exit with a crap season & no trophies for him after 10 years of service but hey we've seen that before with Kane for I'm used to it.

We aren't serious on the pitch & we aren't run like a football club it's a brand.

The difference is approach,I belief and aggression.

We are like pussycats, which is why I don't think we will win the Europa. Too soft.

Joelinton isnt a top class CM.
