Do you think we would ever spend 100 million on a player to improve our first team? I’ll answer for you, no you don’t

We are Microsoft and we’re buying Tesco meal deals to feed our staff, get your head out the sand boy
tesco meal deals is not for every day but sum times it feels good in the mouth and stomach
but sum times it gives u the shits.

I’m not trying to trap you, that’s not something I particularly care about

I’m as respectful online as I am in real life and would never say anything to anyone I wouldn’t say to their face, this isn’t a one up thing

I’m not gonna follow you to the ENIC thread I was just interested in your opinion

Cool no worries, I've answered all these types of questions in the ENIC thread so if you're interested have a search in there...until then back to transfers (or lack of them) 💪
 
Injuries killed him, never the same player after them. Very talented footballer though.
i know stats is not the end to all in football
but he really was a monster at porto and atletico
and i belive in monaco he already had some bad injurys in his career ( i could be wrong) but still was damm good striker


 
We'll end up with the cheapest "striker" available...guaranteed..!
Whoever we sign as a striker should end up as the golden boot winner this season with 30+ goals right?

Sonny would score 25+ in our set up and most on here think he is a rubbish striker and only gets tap ons.

So if we signed a so called "real striker" they should score Sonny's tap in goals and be able to create quite a few of their own.

Because a striker strikes goals right?
 
Kulu played well at ST. Bergvall played well at CM. Spence played well at LB. Moore played well at RW.

We can feel a lot better about our depth in these positions after our game vs Bayern.
 
The whole point of a DOF and recruitment team is that you don’t recruit only for a manager, you recruit a squad and have managers lined up to fit that squad.

This has been explained a million FUCKING times. 🙏 PLEASE give it a rest.

It’s been a shit window so far but that’s all it’s been. It hasn’t been a signal for the end of days or that Ange isn’t trusted because we don’t work that way these days.
I get it and I support it.
But we need to think about this manager as well as the 2nd or 3rd down the line.
At the moment this managers team isn't going to perform too well and needs work.

Gray and Bergvall will he great for Ang's replacements replacement in 2026 I'm sure.
 
Frustrating. Levy just really does not seem to understand the value of aligning head coach strategy with timely purchasing and support. He didn't properly back Conte either, which lead to ineffective performance and eventual disgruntlement, buying Porro far too late to be of any real help to Conte when it mattered. Constantly stepping over dollars to pick up dimes...
And here we are.
Twenty four years later and people are still struggling to see it.
 
Even Ange is getting pissed off with Lange creeping around in the shadows. Tell him to come out of the shadows and sign the players Ange needs.
ange is the guy with the glasses

someone last year said "if brennan johnson is the answer what is the question?"
so here we are again "if Dominic Solanke is the answer what is the question"

Here’s the question:

Can you find me a 6”2’ beast with pace, good touch and finishing, great box movement and able to occupy defenders whilst bringing others into the game? Oh and btw I also need them to have a unique aerobic profile where they are able to press like a maniac out of possession without losing any of their strength and power when they do have the ball.

The first answer would have been:
You mean that Norwegian ugly bastard in Manchester?

Response:
No, not him. Can you find anyone else that we can sign and also have some budget left for a wicked little 1v1 winger to provide even more chances for them?

Solanke is a very good player who doesn't really lack in anything.

We need Eze as well though otherwise he'd be feeding off scraps thus everyone calling him shite.
