I like Gordon; but "Killer" is OTT......
Gordon or Johnson? There is no contest.
One actually has a pair of bollocks for a start.
No I'm not missing the point. The OG claim was not Maddison is crap he isn't * overrated is not crap). That in itself would be idiotic International football and EPL football which some seem utterly able to understand have diverged starkly in the last 15 years. It's why Gio looks great for Argentina as does Di Maria. Also Eze and Maddison can not get game time quite rightly so (despite Southgates competence) because the players who start in their position are BETTER than either, which still doesn't change the fact Eze improves our first eleven and squad. Both these things can be true Fix.
Yeah, I suddenly remembered that last night, losing Berbatov & 2 points from 8 games was what led to Ramos being sacked, & Harry taking over.
You have to look at the so called leaders on the field on this. Its pathetic. Let me tell you Sheringham, Ferdinand, Anderton immediately would have been on to this saying to the attackers "Saliba on a tight rope, target him" Aaron Lennon would not have needed telling. We need bigger personalities in that front three get Oshimen in Jan we have to add quality and authority.
I get you, brother...but you ain't unlucky when you shoot yourself in the foot at Leicester, Newcastle then at home vs the goons. And how many times last season eh?
Self-inflicted wounds over and over again, pal...that ain't bad luck, that's just poor tekkers & weak ass mentality. Spursy, proper soft underbelly. Way too many sissies in that squad and can no longer blame Hojbjerg & co.
That's what happens when top 4 is the ultimate Graal.
All about next season, don't you know?
it can all change pretty quickly though. right manager and one or 2 signings. gray and bergvall look promising and hopefully we see that this week in the cup.
Only one of those finished above us last year. And by one win.
So you’d prefer we return to playing bus park and break football like Howe (and Mourinho, Conte, Nuno) and still finish lower than we did last season like Newcastle did?
honestly..... I think I should call them on myself.
It ain't just about yesterday's goal, though.
Vic has been weak as piss ever since he joined. All well & good playing the tough geezer, shouting like a madman at refs and his young teammates like Bergvall...but then go back it up by not acting a right pussy whenever the ball comes into your 6-yd box.
We got Hugo in goals and Toby/Superjan at CB, Gabriel never scores.
I want winning football, I don't care about what form it comes in.
What we are currently playing isn't achieving anything, pass it around side to side, for one of the attacking players who either doesn't get on the end of it or, can't hit the target from a few yards out.
So many players are not in form, defence is a shambles including the keeper who looks poor.
Transfer window was a joke, all based around bringing in low wage earners, not what you would expect from the 8th richest club in world football.
Most people would construe "killers" to be the likes of Son or Salah in their prime; not any of the WFs mentioned above..... And that includes Gordon.
We are the only team who could lose when we have our best players out.
We are also the only team who could lose when opponents had their best players out.

Pretty clear we bought one player for the first team this summer , a player one might argue was a year late considering he is the player brought in to replace ( very loosely } Kane . I know some will argue that was Richarlison , but when we had peak Kane and peak Son we all knew we were still short in attack . So when Kane leaves and Son is a year older the idea that Richarlison and Son was enough is laughable .
We are an unambitious club , have been since Scholar , he fucked up but fucked up trying at least.

And if my aunt had a set of bollocks she'd be my uncle
40 mil on Gray...a kid who doesn't play.
30 mil on Odobert...a kid who did alright at relegated Burnley.
60+ on Solanke...who got one solid season to his name.
Add to that the 50 splashed on Brennan, the 30 odd on Kulu, the 50 ish on Madders (who's always had poor streaks + injuries)...
Now imagine what we could've signed with that money. Proper solid contributors. But no, we always go for quantity over quality, classic B or even C-list type shit. And we expect to challenge for titles. LOL
I don't know why Kulu is on this list, he's been one of our few bright spots.
It's not the fees we pay which is the problem it's the wages. I'd be all for buying less quantity for big fees and using the money on wages for one or two top drawer additions. Would they come though?
And the level of signings we are making.
The transfer window solved nothing.
None fit for what we need right now.
