I know he is not fucking wrong. But it depends on who is saying it, doesn't it?Because he’s not wrong. We played badly more than well last season. Football wasn’t sexy at all
Giroud is just a deluxe fucking donkey.Not really, Deschamps is an absolute fucknugget. Look at some of the other selections, Matuidi, Pavard, Giroud and other players left out or not even in the squad.
Well yeah. But totti has loads of users who can’t stand him (like me) so it’s not the best exampleI know he is not fucking wrong. But it depends on who is saying it, doesn't it?
Yes, he is a complete fucking cockwomble. A French Martin O'Neill.
Nobody has taken issue with what he said. If I made a statement like that, I would expect to be hammered for it.Well yeah. But totti has loads of users who can’t stand him (like me) so it’s not the best example
I was jokingly saying I hate totti ahaha not the others hate me. LOVE ME INTERNET FRIENDSNobody has taken issue with what he said. If I made a statement like that, I would expect to be hammered for it.
Is it because he hasn't named names?
I don't think you are hated by lots of members, Nabil. You sure?
Oh, I see.I was jokingly saying I hate totti ahaha not the others hate me.
We have 0 quality in midfield - the clown is spot on. Sissoko and Winks are nothing players from a technical ability point of view.Not only are you not being lynched for this loose talk, but you are being repped for it. I don't get it.
I agree, but I doubt we'll get both. Sure is, Lamela doesn't really find himself a spot in our team currently, and should probably be moving to somewhere else. Pitty because I've always liked him, but it's no good for him to sit on the bench constantly at his age.Let's be honest though, we really don't need 3 out of Son, Lucas and Lamela do we? If Fernandes has been earmarked as an Eriksen replacement asNabil Bentaleb has stated he has the skills to be and Lo Celso comes in to offer more diversity instead of Lamela let's say that's shaping up to look very competitive.
It won't happen but if we could offer more diversity in attack with options such as Fernandes, Dele, Lo Celso, Lucas, Son & Kane then Pochettino really would be able to flex his tactical muscles with a variety of different plays and styles to keep the opposition guessing. I've got no idea how it'll all pan out but it's positive to hear that Fernandes could do an Eriksen type role for us as I don't think Lo Celso offers what Christian can in the volumes required for our style (should we wish to continue playing with the same philosophy)
I know that, Arc, and I agree. But if someone else had said it, there's a fair chance they would be getting pelters.

Sissoko has been fantastic, but he is very limited to what he can do. He’s very good at running with the ball, breaking up play and just generally running. What he doesn’t offer though is passing, shooting and being able to control a midfield, which Winks can do.Does my head in the amount of lineups winks makes it into. Hes not better than Sissoko or Ndombele.
...............Kane
..Son....Lo Celso...Alli
...Ndombele..Sissoko
Thats a team.
Bruno Fernandes looks
Has an extremely good shot & strikes with confidence. His technical abilities seem to be quite good too.
Also he's taking great freekicks, something we completely lack, especially when Eriksen leaves.
How about signing GSP...? Add a bit of muscleSo if I read this correctly are yuo suggesting that Dele shouldn't be shoehorned into the side should we get Ndombele and GLC?
No way. They would have welcomed the hoods opinion & treated him with kindness & respect!I know that, Arc, and I agree. But if someone else had said it, there's a fair chance they would be getting pelters.

Personally I’d have Winks in midfield over Sissoko alongside NDombele, but definitely keep Sissoko around. He’s a great asset to have in the squad.
