This should be the most active thread on the board. Wake up people.

They’ve got about a year to prove they are different than Levy. If not, they need forcibly removed.

We are on year 8 of a consistent, continuous decline.
 
January is the verdict month. Give us signs that things are turning 180 degrees to how it was used to be. If we do not have signings (2 minimum) ready to go January 1st, 2026, then:

SELL THE CLUB YOU SORRY LOSERS!!!!!!!

if they dont go heavy in jan, they need to be hounded out. our squad is a joke

vicario, danso, dogshit, dragusin, bentancur, davies, tel, johnson, richarlison. thats at least 9 players that regularly make match day squads that are not good enough, clear that shit out and get some proper footballers in. can probably put odobert in that too, but hes young and im hoping he will eventually get some man strength and could turn into something decent.

embarrassing lack of quality for a club thats meant to be a top 10 club in the world when it comes to revenue. wouldnt want them cunts on my team at 7 a side.

For the squad (not first XI) ... I'm fine with Danso, Dragusin, Davies and Odobert

agree with the others.
 
Ok, let me refine.

Madders was a proven playmaker at the highest level, instrumental in securing his last club top honours.

Didn’t know who Xavi was until we signed him

:roseunsure:

Before you ask, not sure why we weren’t in for Grealish.

He's a replacement because he's a 10 same as Maddison, his stats this season means he's underperforming due to various reasons and IMO it's mainly down to the coach and his setup, that doesn't mean Madders wasn't replaced, he was.

Inadequately!

Xavi was a panic buy and clearly without adequate due diligence,

IMHO it’s not down to coaching and setup, it’s down to lack of physical presence.

I’d add to the above that we should only be signing maybes after we have top talent covered in every position

Well I mean Eze was the one they went for and that fucked up so Xavi was the next best thing.

I generally agree but in terms of no10's on the market Eze and MGW was the right ideas but the execution was just shit.

Other than that the other 10s on the market were a load of maybes if they were actually gettable, some weren't (like Paz)

Fair. I genuinely didn’t know he was supposed to be a 10 until it was pointed out.

He is weak and it’s not evident in our system with his skill set where the chances come from.

I never got Xg until I watched our last 3 games.

He definately needs to bulk up and like Wirtz he is coming from a weaker league in comparion where physicality isn't an issue, it tends to take some foreign players a while how to operate in this league.

But I think we just need to be fair and honest, the 'system' he playing in is uber shit, we create less chances than fucking Wolves, he's has less touches in the box than Brendon Aranson for God's sake...his stats and the teams stats are lining up with the eye test and what we're witnessing, if the ball is not getting to the forward areas enough how do you expect our forwards to have and influence on the match?

Hence why I can't take people seriously who say this isn't a coaching issue and putting it all back on the player (sorry Harrier) there is no way on earth that you can put these performances purely on the players and if you do it's just agenda driven nonsense.

No reason for this thread to be active, other than discussing if they should sack the manager or not.

Nothing else can be done until the window opens.

Rarely is ever just one thing causing problems.

I think both are true. He looks genuinely underweight even for the French league and our system is not working either…
