“He’s so fucking shit, he’s never gonna make it”.
Critiquing his performance is nothing close to the above, figuratively or literally... Get yourself a grip.
What is he gonna make? Either you are good enough or you are not. We can't have trials playing for and in champions league.
Agreed - that's why, in our current situation, Skipp & Parrott need some game time. You never know, Parrott might just be a revelation (or lucky).
Agreed but how else does he get to try if not in the PL? Patience.
As you understand me I understand you. But it is not how it works. You either good enough or you are not. We can't have the Wink, KWP, Skipp not taking their chances. If you tell me any one of those are the mustard top prem quality i have to break your heart. They just don't cut it.
Even JM knows that he has to develop 20% of his squad has to be developed or found young at a reasonable price. This is made worse by spending so much money on Ndombele, etc
In a way the spending we do is supposed to be tight yeah. Levy won't pay the price but when we do. We somehow always get it wrong.
That in a nutshell is why we are not doing well!
And you are right on both counts. Grealish has a bad behaviour record so will suit UTD or City.

Am i understanding you right here? You wouldn't want them playing for spurs?
Who would you start CB? I can’t see any viable alternative to Toby right now.
Japhet should only play CB alongside Jan or Tony for now. He’s young and needs coaching through the game, he’s not going to get that from Sanchez.
This guy is a talent I think, I want to see him get more mins. Just not in a situation where he’s playing alongside Dier and Sanchez and expected to perform like Ledley.

Feels me with dread. You need an experienced head for organisation as much as anything.
Those combos won’t work. Appreciating both Toby and Jan have regressed significantly, we still need at least one of them starting for me.
I'd rather Japhet and Sanchez/Dier as opposed to the Belgian bros at the moment.
They might make errors that Toby/Vert might not but the Belgians are also more likely to get skinned or take 4 years to close down a shot. Rather youthful chaos than ageing brokenness.

Dier I would like to get rid of or see on very rare occasions in cup games because he is not good enough.
Sanchez, as good as he is at defending, has almost no distribution skills. Can’t rely on Tanganga as our distributor at the back.
Which means we have to make use of at least one of the Belgians. CBs don’t just defend, they are crucial in starting the attack.
