How frustrating though to join a football club that has the best players and keeps getting so close to the biggest trophy only for its brilliant manager to keep getting brain freezes and thinking that he is even more brilliant than he is and picking a completely stupid team and blowing it!! 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Oh yes ... and surrounded by Mancs!!!!! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

These days I'm not really sure 4-3-3, 4-5-1, 4-4-2 really exist anyway, they're all slightly different versions of the same thing. when a game is in motion, they morph anyway.....The dynamics of the game influence the formation. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Well its more the system and how the manager and sports director has built it. They have players like Ilicic that were not appreciated elsewhere and others that will struggle in other squads like Gosens but blend together brilliantly 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Anyone think that @Kiwivillan doesn't think we are signing Tammy? Personally think he is still on the fence about it because he's not really expressed a clear opinion either way so 50/50.........

Vive_La_Villa Posted May 31, 2021 Share Posted May 31, 2021 I don’t think we should be blowing a massive amount of our transfer budget on a striker when we have one that is the 8th highest in the league. A class wide player or two is more important. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We need a better striker option from the bench than Wes or Davis...that said can we invest around 50%* of our transfer budget on TA.? *Assuming budget is approx what it has been last 2 seasons.

We won't spend a lot on a backup striker who needs to be happy to be backup (like the junk that Spurs keep signing as backup to Kane) 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
