Bring back Paul Mitchell and Poch - along with a promise that Levy will no longer interfere on the footballing side.
Think Mitchell will go to Liverpool. Despite their shoddy form, they'd be a much more attractive proposition and rebuild. Based on previous experience, I can't see him coming back while Baldino is still here either.
 
Most players brought in to be first team ready though, not necessarily superstars but reasonably technically adept solid players
Personally l feel we overlook technic for strength, pace and stamina . Look at Arse they prioritise a far more technical player . That is why we can do so little with the ball and struggle to maintain possession under pressure.

I guess that is bcos of the” styke” of football which is not geared to keeping the ball. It’s more about sitting deep , running around tackling no one and hoping for a counter.

We know that ain’t happening. Value based club signings appear whether we have a DOF or not, no matter which manager is at the helm. He would ask Pep to make major compromises and impose his own football ideas onto him.

This cycle will not change until the reaper takes the little cunt out
 
I have watched the Paratici video several times now and have not seen a more tone deaf piece of club PR in a long time. It has raised a number of questions:
1. Why is Paratici still at the club when their is even a question of financial fraud?
2. Why does the club think Conte was the only problem?
3. How can anyone enjoy the football we have been playing this season?
4. How are the performance in the Cup Exits Acceptable?
5. Where is the plan going forward, the man making the statement has such an uncertain future how can he be part of it?
6. What is up with the low quality production on the video?
7. Why does it look like he doesn't give a shit about the fans?

Kulu, Porro, Bentancur, Perisic, Gil all technical. Sarr is good technically imo.

Lenglet is technical but a donkey for pace and mobility.

Emerson was def sacrificing technical for physical

I think CM needs another technical player where Hoj is and we could use some more pace but quick more than pace. Need nippy bastards that can change direction and fast over first few steps to press and get away from the press.
 
1. Why is Paratici still at the club when their is even a question of financial fraud?
I think he, and Juventus and the rest of the directors are a good chance to get off.

They are being targeted over inflation of transfer fees for capital gains purposes.
Capital gains in football, are not only not illegal, they also aren't regulated.

If we find a club that wants to pay 70m to buy Winks, apart from assuming they're nuts, who has the power to say that's not fair value? You're worth what two clubs are willing to agree on.

Neymar wasn't worth his price but PSG happily paid it.
So hard to see what it is they are actually in breach of.

Inflating player sales values or swaps don't work either. Yes you get a year 0 boost to revenue for FFP purposes but years 1-5 of the contract the new player's amortisation is also inflated. Which raises costs. Do it often enough and costs rise to the point you need more and more money. Think Barcelona atm
 
Sack him immediately


The fact we posted a video from him yesterday tells you all you need to know about our clubs 'Plan'

Sack him immediately


What a Fucking mess we are. I still don't understand how his position was tenable the last few months. The fact is we have recently employed way too many questionable characters:
Paratici - Fraud
Conte- 10 Month Ban for Match Fixing (Overturned)
Stellini - Match Fixing

The question is we do not seem to do proper background checks on these people and some of these people we do not even do a google search on.
 
No doubt we will waste more time waiting on his appeal. We really should be sacking him and paying really good money to get our ideal DOF with and attacking philosophy in right now, giving him time to settle and pick his manager in the summer. It’s looking like it will be another 2021 style scramble to piece the club together again this summer.
