Cooking what?What about Don Lange ?
The man was cooking during that last window
Genuinely believe this. He maybe crooked as fuck but he has operated at level that Men at Work ( Munn, Lange, Jedinak, Montgomery) can only dream of.
I haven't really got a lock on what Munn does; but he's Ex-city... That whole Txiki-Pep era has been superbly executed (even if they obviously cheated like fuck to establish themselves as a credible enough option to attract the old Barca crew to in the first place).
He’s got zero experience of running a top level football club and is basically learning on the job. The fact he’s been plucked from running the city groups business relations in Asia and been given the reigns to our club is bemusing to me. He won’t be here in 2 or 3 years time, he’ll be cleared out with Lange et al when the current experiment fails and all at the club are wondering why.
Paratici and his ban was really bad news for us. Typical though, ever since arnesen it’s been one disaster to another.
Still none the wiser what that actually constitutes considering he's sandwiched in the hierarchy between Levy & our DOF (with Fab also lurking somewhere above or alongside Lange).
I also have a hard time swallowing the idea that Levy would blindly hand the whole thing over to someone with no tangible skillset.
Gut tells me he's just a wingman for Levy who mostly concerns himself with brand synergies, marketing ops and other wanky corporate bollocks.
Looks like Paratici is in deeper trouble now...

Probably true, but I heard somewhere (View From The Lane?) that it was felt by the club that we had the set up of a much smaller club when Poch broke through/we moved. There's just more to do in a £450 million turnover super club than there was in 2005, more people to hire and manage, a women's team we're taking seriously, a much bigger training complex (soon to be two).Yep probably the latest fall guy, who like I said, will be replaced when it all goes tits up again within the next 12 to 24 months.
Hi Fabio.Hi!
Bring back Paratici. Next summer ends his ban. Porro, Udogie, Romero, Sarr, Bentancur, Kulusevski... Your best players were bought by Paratici, at fair price. And they are youngs: good business. His only mistake was Richarlison.
Now your main problem is Lange. 50m for Johnson, 65m for Solanke... This is ridiculous. He wasted incredible money for average players.
Meth by the looks of it
He never leftHi!

They should go now tbh. Clear the mum out ahead of JanHe’s not wrong though is he. I bet Lange and Munn aren’t here in two years time. Levy will have them out as the next fall guys.
I always took it that he was a club signing.All those photos of Levy having dinner with Ken Wright and then paying a fortune for a player I bet none of us thought would kick on to become a top playerHi!

Why though? The only real dud we've bought is Johnson, and that's just from an overall footballing perspective- his goal return has been great. Solanke has been excellent.He’s not wrong though is he. I bet Lange and Munn aren’t here in two years time. Levy will have them out as the next fall guys.
