But he won Europa.

I dunno mate. Put it this way, if it was another manager that lost 22 games but won Europa and agreed to the transfer strategy i think they would have kept him on and justified it by saying "yeh but he won a cup and we are prepared to give him another season". He lost 22 games AND publically stated the transfer strategy was a mistake and they would have to do things differently.

Gotcha.

Probably some truth in that to be honest. Levy is a tyrant, a dictator...them dickheads usually aren't too fan of criticism.
 
When are we going to start showing some real ambition in the transfer market?

Every year that passes, since the new stadium came along, feels like the fan base are mugged off more and more.

I mean come on, it's about time we got more serious.

Oh wait, it's ENIC.

Admin won't say yea or nay mate.

Everyone else on here posts their info to either laugh at it or go into one because they hate SC.

We shouldn’t have signed Tel, especially not as a starter...but we did and that's what he'll be next season. We need several levels above a kid who failed at Bayern, and who got 2 goals (1 pen) + 1 assist in 13 PL games for us last season.

'Absolutely' should be reserved for the likes of Nico Williams, Barcola, Raphinha, Vinicius...

A proper serious club like City or Liverpool wouldn't sign Tel, even for their bench.

I don't get how you can be so real about Levy and yet be so excited about that kid?! 50mil ffs! Had we spent max 20m on him and were paying him 50k a week to ride the bench, I'd say alright...but that's just downright stupid what we done. Sheer incompetence once again.

Kalimuendo honestly no idea but the fact I’ve never heard of him makes him a punt.

We should be going after Lautaro Martinez, Gyokeres, Osimhen, Sesko...even try & bring Kane back. Fuck me, even Mateta or Chris friggin Wood would be more ambitious.

Tel, Kalimuendo and the other dumplings we're about to bring in says one thing and one thing only: we are sooooo fucking small time.

Tel wasn’t our Marquee forward signing.

He’s a great pick up who will score a ton of goals though.

Fantastic physical strengths, elite mentality, technically Very good as well.

Sesko never looked that great to me
 
We ain't signing another forward unless 2 of Son, Richarlison, Kulusevski, Johnson or Solomon leave in my opinion.

I'm not convinced the links with Mbeumo and Semenyo are that believable.

As for Pisilli, I would rather put the time in Devine and buy an experienced midfielder.

Our squad lacks balance and I don't see much happening until atleast a week into pre season when Frank has actually met the players.

Well he fucking better for that money. But allow me to doubt it considering what he's shown so far in his career.

We obviously don't have the same definition of fantastic, elite or very good.
