Tbh I'm not surprised, not only would he take a massive pay cut but any kind of career at the top level is over. I know people would say it's over now but he got a winners medal at Napoli, so he's hoping for more of the same.
If they are expecting him to be Haaland straight away they are off their nut.
But he clearly has the ability to hit any shot he wants, prem level pace and prem level dribbling so he’s going to create himself separation to get shots off.
There’s going to be a major learning curve against the level of CBs in the prem tho
Pretty good quotes in there. Most importantly I’m wondering what his FPL team was last season and where he came!
You’ve quoted that scouting article there haven’t you?
Or you’ve been watching the Belgian Jupiter League?
don’t forget Son can also play through the middle.
Orban isn’t coming in to replace Kane. Nobody is, the manager said almost word for word they aren’t going looking for a replacement #9.
He definitely had Mitoma before the hipsters jumped on the bandwagon
He is funny and a breath of fresh air"Money burning in my pocket? I don't have any money burning in my pocket. My wife does a good job of making sure it doesn't go there. That's harsh on my wife.... she deserves it. To spend it I mean, I'm getting myself into a hole here!" joked the Australian.
This guy.
Levy is a disgrace for not building a team round Kane that could win the prem when there was a chance. No excuse,
Then hiring managers that he had to know would need more than he wanted to spend. Stupid and incompetent.
But.
For the first time since Poch and maybe even more so than Poch, he’s hired a manager that genuinely wants to prove it can be done without spending obscene money on players. There is something about that I can get behind.
Sure we’d all like to see us competing to sign the best in the world and under Conte, they should have if they were being honest with the appointment.
At least now though, there’s a chance for the club, manager, and fans to be on the same page.
I liked his comments surrounding, not having to spend fortunes, which is music to someone's ears.
But he also said, that sometimes you do have to buy top talent, which is also correct.
The club hopefully will eventually, get it right between, when to buy those players that add stardust to the team.
ndombele will not play for us again, he is not willing to do the hard work required to play 60/70 mins per match
no club will pay his wages and a transfer fee, so Levy has to swallow and let him go on a free transfer providing the "buying club" pick up his contract
if not we will continue to pay him £200K pw till his contract ends
£75m Kepa and £35m Mendy?
They sold Mendy and are loaning Kepa to Madrid.
Klinsmann was one of the star strikers in tne 94 world cup, he had recovered his mojo and form. Noone expected that he would sign for a club like us, especially after having just survived relegation in season 93-94.
I don't like having to say it, But we have spent on talent, but most have turned out to be duffers
Sanchez, Ndombele, GLC, something like £130M down the toilet, then add the cheap players we got in that just disappeared since 2016
someone has wasted a lot of the clubs money, Levy or transfer committee no one seems to take the blame
then we have the probelm of not getting these duffers out,
Leicester already proved that the year they won the PL.
Are the mutant ninja turtles permanent or just loan deals?
Always thought this is why he got the job.
Probably also said he'd give some of the deadwood a chance to redeem themselves. Or at least push their value up.
Didn't even notice Mendy was gone.
They did go through the last 1 or 2 seasons with no definite no.1 as both their keepers were no.1's when they bought them. That was my point though
