I was just going on what Bill said.
.....Only if he wants the same players as me!
Get the knives ready guys; we could have Poch back in by Christmas.
It’s not quite as black and white as that though.
Hojbjerg only made 15 appearances for Guardiola at Bayern before being farmed out on loan and ultimately sold for 12 million to Southampton, so he can’t have been rated that highly…
Mourinho, Conte and Simeone all play a similar haram ball style where the midfield is bypassed when it comes to building attacks, so the central midfielders are not required to be very good footballers on the ball.
I mean 3 of those managers are cloggers and the other one says positive things about everyone.
No chance in hell PEH could get anywhere near city or a guardiola style.
doubt it, but should kane leave can see this being included in the deal
That much is true; but it's also not the standard being claimed on his behalf.....
Praise from guardiola is worth little unless he wants to buy you and play you on his squad.
And the other 3 are pro-clogger.
Just pay the fucking money Atletico!!!
If he plays Tanganga in any meaningful game I’m going to support Bayern Munich.....Only if he wants the same players as me!
Get the knives ready guys; we could have Poch back in by Christmas.
Oooh, the "Success is only merited if it's pretty" debate........ Nice.
I'll go first... Would you accept a CL & EPL double if the football was ugly?
[Just banter]
That of course would be up to you.
I'd certainly be baffled if this all came to fruition as projected, but also EXTREMELY suprised,
Spurs have needed an attacking midfielder and, because they didn't have one, I think we often focus on what Hoijberg isn't instead of the positive things he is. What he does well is get the ball back. He does occasionally, from fatigue or frustration, seem to check out but as seen by some of the potential bid amounts being discussed he is still regarded well.
I didn’t say he was shit. I’ve said for a while he’s fine as a backup CM. But he’s not good enough to start on a top progressive team.
Guardiola could have signed him again but never did, so… As for the others, yeah, he’s a good, hard-working player for their type of attritional football, but that’s not the way we are gonna play going forward, so let’s sell and thank him for his service.
I have a similar opinion. I also think he's not close to being a good DM..... I think you give him a box to box role and enough freedom to attack you'd see the best out of him. Would probably do great job as a starter at WH or Brentford.
We've seen enough to know that in the right circumstances he can play a blinder at EPL level against good oppo.
