How Dry should our Powder be?

People who think Bergvall is a #6 must have started watching football yesterday. And that includes his former DOF in Sweden or whoever it was that made that comment. Bonkers.
 
Fucking hope not.

All this shit about "great servant" this is not the military it is elite sport and Davies is not good enough for where we want to be. Thanks and good luck - an extension would be ludicrous.
Agree. I like Davies and personality wise he's one of my favourite players in the squad, but he's simply not suited to the style of football we play under Ange. He's a terrible inverted LB and he's not quick enough to play CB in our high line, nor is he physical enough or good in the air.

For those that disagree, go take a look at our goals conceded with him at CB last year.
 
Because of his attitude towards it.
Self belief, confidence, conviction and execution.

Mental traits a good striker needs in some cases more than footballing ability.
Watch the pen again, it’s on bbc footie site. He watches the keeper the whole time but STILL puts it on the side the keeper goes! It wasn’t even in the corner. His looked ballsey but was actually the worst pen. His was the luckiest of ours.

Sure, he’s got self-belief, but it’s not that well founded.

Really need to get a hurry on with these outgoings to have any chance at bringing in the level we need to catch the title chasers.

May as well release Solomon on a free.

Davies we probably should release on a free and allow him to choose his next club.

Reguillon slash the price down, PEH and GLC slash those prices right down as well.
If you get rid of a lot of players you have to bring in a lot of players.

I'd rather we spend £200m on 3 starting players than £200m on 8 players to bolster the squad.

I can't watch iPlayer from my location but with the keeper going the right way and still not getting it tells me that's a good penalty.

Seem to remember it being low, quite hard and into the back corner of the net.

Thats not luck.It's how he takes them for Brentford with an exceptional record. The keeper often goes the right way for those too but they don't stop them.
 
Last 6 windows we've signed

Vicario

Porro - Dragusin - van de Ven - Udogie

Bissouma - Bentancur

Johnson - Maddison - Solomon

Richarlison


Forster, Spence, Phillips, Perisic, Gray, Bergvall, Kulusevski, Veliz


Loaned in Lenglet, Werner and Danjuma
 
Our attack is just so average looking at the quality of the top teams. We need a top quality CM, a top quality DM, a top quality LW, a top quality CF, a top quality RW at bare minimum.

As long as Son is here, he won’t be taking our annual penalty so debating his penalty prowess is entirely fucking pointless

Hmmm. Maybe watch it again. It’s not a bad pen, but it was our worst. Sommer being a short-arse helped.
