Question for everyone - if Levy found £35m down the back of his sofa and could either spend it on a LCB or CM, which would you prefer?
Davies’ form since Conte came in has made this a genuine question I think.
CM easy. We have the 4th most scored and 4th fewest conceded in the league, but over the course of 90 mins we struggle to control the game.Question for everyone - if Levy found £35m down the back of his sofa and could either spend it on a LCB or CM, which would you prefer?

Interesting little look in to how signings from other leagues perform elsewhere. Obviously sample sizes are very limited and it won’t tell the whole story at all, but Bundesliga looks particularly eyebrow raising.
Shame they missed out England to England and Germany to Germany etc. That is the baseline. How often do moves work out at all? The change of league is not the only factor in determining someone’s success after a transfer. Probably not even the biggest one.
Stats and damn lies ?
I'm sure Parasite will find us a cheap cast off from Juve....When was the last time we bought a player from the likes of Dortmund, Ac/Inter Milan, Sevilla, etc. when the player wasn't a surplus to requirement?
We're always restricted to the likes of Leverkusen, Real Betis etc.

Our progression has been fine as evidenced by the amount of goals we've scored in the second half of the season.
We've picked up 8/12 points against Liverpool and City, two of the best pressing teams in the world, so we are obviously not doing too badly on that front.
We all love Dembele but he had his faults too. One major one being his limited passing range and habit for holding on to the ball for too long - hardly ideal for a counter attacking team (as we are usually against the better sides).
Our issues are not against pressing sides they are against bus parkers so I don't think a press resistant midfielder is the solution.
My point is, I think this team improves more by having lets say Trippier and Alonso in at wingback than it does by having Bissouma or Dembele in for Hojbjerg with Sess and Emerson remaining at wingback.
Imagine how many more goals Kane would have if we had players capable of finding him from wide?
If anything I think it will be Skipp and new CM. With Benta/PEH generally being subs and rotating with Skipp.I agree in that I think the obsession people on this forum have for Bissouma is crazy. I think Bentacur and Skipp will be the partnership next season.
But fuck Alonso. Never mention that name involving us.
The obsession is very understandable his skill set and the length of his remaining contract make a deal very realistic, ditto Philips if Leeds go down.I agree in that I think the obsession people on this forum have for Bissouma is crazy.

I think it was last summer where a few of the natives over on SC called out Trix and Hercules on their shite. Both had a shitfit and vowed to never post again.The transfer window is near. This is where the itkers like trix give the exclusives. Basically take it with a pinch of salt.
