Yeah I don't get this fucking club sometimes, we waited for so long to secure another CB - we had a bid from Rennes for Dav we just have just accepted, now he's going to go on a free unless he leaves in January - maybe Ange thinks he can work with him, we just have to hope that our first choice CB's gets through the season with 0 injuries

By the way the reaction in here when we were linked to Lloyd Kelly was just plain weird, he's literally the same profile as Tosin and he's clearly a data driven pick, would have been fine as 3rd choice for Ange's system.
They don't need to go through the season without an injury, they just have to make it to January.
 
Tempted to give the window an 8 because things aren't half as bad as most of you depressives think they are...

I think a solid 6 is reasonable pushing a 7.

We definitely needed another CB. I would be ok with Sanchez being 4th choice but we needed a third.

The good thing is we have so few games with no Europe or league cup that barring injury or suspension there’s no excuse to not play VDV and Romero in most games.

Vicario
Johnson
Solomon
Maddison
Udogie

These all massively improve our squad.
 
Yep, Ange said he wanted "at least 1 more centre back" this window

I’ll probably get disagrees and accusations of tin foil hat etc but Ange absolutely got his Levy virginity taken.

The reason for another CB not coming in was because Dav or Dier needed to go.

There was interest knocked back for both. The obvious reason for that was financial from Levy. He didn’t like the difference between the value he was getting in for Dav and what he’d have to spend on a new CB.

Levy decided it was ok to leave Ange with Davinson instead.

Cue injury to maddison and issues with CB from now on.
Clearly club don't care, otherwise they would have been prioritised.
This is the same with every manager, same script different season.
I think Kulu maybe goes 10 and Johnson RW if Maddison gets hurt. They did more in attacking areas tbf.

Injury to a CB or Bissouma and we are in more trouble imo.

Levy was fine with that as long as the spreadsheets matched up. He’s not running a football club. He hires football people and hopes they can make him look competent.

So true.. Thank God the window is closed so we don't see quadruple whining posts from fickle fans, who think it's all about the shopping.

We got in the best creative MF in the nation, a great, proven young player in Johnson, and with VDV in we probably have the best CB pair in PL.

Not bad for a club in transition. Have some patience and faith!

GOAT GOAT

Putting a disagree for this criticism of Levy even if deep down you know it’s true.

It’s possible to get behind the team, support Ange and the boys and still see Levy’s behaviour for what it is.

Doesn’t mean you are being negative about the team.

The board charge amongst the highest tickets in world football and have one of the most loyal fanbase. We sold Kane for 100m and the players linked for that 3rd CB spot weren’t 50-70m players. They were 15-30m players.

Levy still rejected offer for Davinson and didn’t bring in what the manager needed.

How do you excuse that?

It was actually accidental mate but thanks for the dialogue!

🤣

Although I don’t particularly agree. Sanchez turned down going to a number of clubs. Levy, for his many faults, can’t put a gun to his head and make him leave.

But I know you have an agenda and so won’t accept the truth of these words. 😊

Lloyd Kelly appears at least reading his profile big, quick and half decent on the ball, ie fits the profile for a high line. I don’t expect the guy to be Maldini just a solid backup.

While I wanted Gallagher who I rate, Kelly was a much more important transfer.

There were bids from places Sanchez was prepared to go.

Apparently he turned down Russia… you make the analogy of putting a gun to his head…
