Toney is a brilliant football player. His hold up play, his passing, his all-around classic #9 in a side like Brentford is very very good.

Getting 20 PL goals for a defensive negative side like Brentford last year and also being their most creative player says a lot.


View: https://youtu.be/yhEHVewB0Zk?si=xb_uRKTCqKG7HXep look at this performance. Look at this level of excellence in all facets of forward play. He’s an amazing striker.

He just happens to be a complete knob.

He's in the Championship right now. A lot of players prefer being backups in big clubs over being starters in struggling clubs, better pay and less pressure if nothing else.

We will be competing on all four fronts next season.

KWP can play both left and right back equally well - If he is the back-up to both Porro and Destiny, he will get near starter minutes with rotation, injuries and suspensions.

If Southampton don’t come back up and we can get him for a reasonable fee, I think it’d worth considering given our academy trained player issue. KWP is a solid player - better than Davies and Emerson at fullback imho but not as versatile. Also not sure how KWP would do in an inverted role.

Anyway always nice to see Academy players at the club. KWP grew up near White Hart Lane, lifelong fan of the club and joined our academy at Age 10.

How is FFP looking for Chelsea ? The loophole of being able to spread payments over the long contracts seemed like a good idea at the time , but surely that must be a millstone around their necks now without champo league money ? Seems like they have a bunch of very expensive players on massive, long contracts that nobody else is going to take off their hands any time soon ?

And don't forget their revenue streams are hardly comparable to the likes of us and Man Utd.
 
What is considered everyone's strongest 11 once we have a fully fit and available squad? I've been debating between a couple of positions...


Vicario
Porro - Romero - Van de Ven - Udogie
Sarr - Bentancur
Deki - Maddison - Son
Richarlison
​
Bissouma is a difficult one. He's so comfortable on the ball, but also has let us down. Sarr's engine is mega important and Bentancur for me is the most underrated player in the league.

With Dragusin, Royal, Davies, Bissouma, Skipp, Hojbjerg*, Johnson, Werner and some youth to select as well, we are finally seeing some depth.

*I think Hojbjerg will be on the way out sooner or later.

Three in midfield for me with Bissouma at the 6 allowing Lolo to go play box to box. There isn't a match up in the league in that position that can dominate Lolo.
Currently I agree with the Richy/Sonny thing because Richy is bang inform as he seems to be grasping Angeball and also has aerial ability. I have a feeling Sonny striker and Werner left wing could be absolutely devastating , hopefully time will tell.

But you said that we'd be in a relegation battle even if we kept Kane 😆

Yup he's been dishonest another time this season if you've been paying attention after the Fulham cup match .

I find the concept that you think our gaffer is squeaky clean honestly funny and naive.

Explain the dishonesty from Fulham. Also explain how that justifies you calling him a liar.

Not being Squeaky clean and a liar aren’t the same. You said the man is a liar.

Depends what you mean by strongest 11 whether best players or best team. Best team is about balance as much as quality.

Best players (on form or ability)

Vicario
Porro Romero VDV Udogie
Sarr (8) Bentancur (6) Maddison (10)
Kulusevski Richarlison Son

Best team in my view in term of balance and playing Ange’s way

Vicario
Porro Romero VDV Udogie
Bentancur (8) Bissouma (6) Maddison (10)
Werner Richarlison Son

I think right now that 11 is what is probably our strongest for some games. You could swap Bissouma in and Johnson in for other games. For Werner it’s too early to tell
