You think BJ would be starting as many games under a different manager?
Yet one of the forwards is to be sold to the Bin Dippers for 80mill shortly or so the accurate English press make out!
Which PL side did not take Europa seriously? You’re taking the piss maaate!
Son has too many miles on the clock IMO, been run into the ground playing every single minute the last decade + for SK and Tottenham and he's reaching the end of his meaningful days as an elite level player. He has lost a yard of pace and he doesn't really have the attributes in his game to adapt to any other position particularly effectively than inside forward off the left, unless we decide to go 4-4-2 and play him off Solanke up top, but then you're giving up a man in midfield to accommodate a player who turns 33 this summer.
it wouldnt surprise me if a different mgr played him (and the team) in a very different way
A frail, weak footballer with very limited technical ability on the ball, bar his shooting prowess. Golden boot / assists outcomes from yesteryear has little bearing on the likelihood of him adding anything under a new manager. He’s finished.
It's obvious Madders and Ange have had a clash. Micky sending mixed messages in the presser. You can see the players pissed after every game and it must be the fury with Ange's management.
For me the clue was when Cuti pulled a knife on Ange in training.
True.
I think you are being a little harsh. Frankfurt are a very, very strong team at home. We did concded a couple of half chances to their right back in the last 15 minutes, but Vicario made only one save I can remember the entire game. Bergvall and Bentancur were really storng in DCM, and the back 4 all played really well. Anyway, the point I was trying to make was about the change in how we did not pass about at the back and take any risks. Ange had said his teams will always play like that whatever. Biggest game of the seaosn and the players did not take short goal kicks at all second half - was that Ange's or the players' decision?
