It's Quiet 17 - Glory Thread

a wonderful player but his decision making is dreadful.
His touch in receipt of a pass means he is Ill-suited when we play without a striker. I often ask whether a player can still improve, but in Sterling’s case it is more a question of whether he can recapture the form he had 3-4 years ago.
 
Been seeing the Pogba thread constantly bumping up. Not something I'd go on as I dont take it seriously, but then seeing a few mentions on here, wait is this a thing now is there actually some link to us?
 
Alvarez doesnt look that quick...could be wrong however...

Edoize doesnt play for the first team and we aint signed Haaland (yet)
he quick enough for a counter, started out intgrated as a winger before transistioning to a 9. we have enough pace for the amount of times we face a high line. (Im counting Haaland of course) if Raz was to go though, i'd love a Diaby or Nkunku etc

Diaby defintely.....
not seen anything of Nkunku
 
Got a feeling there’s will be a Bernado swap with FDJ. Bernado wanted out last year, and has made noises again this year. Rumblings gathering on both deals.
Least worst possible outcome would be to use that to get a top quality midfielder.
And Bernado would go with my enormous thanks and best wishes ..
 
Pace is never pointless - it's not our explicit attacking strategy but acceleration/pace aids in movement around the box, beating the offside trap, pressing, tracking etc. It gives defences another thing to be wary of - like the tactic against Liverpool at the Etihad.
Leroy likes this
 
Pointless might be a bit strong but pace without technical ability in our forward line just doesn't cut it. Sterling has pace and great technique but should finish more often than he does. Walkers pace at the back is essential to our high line
I would agree but pace is still vital, the counter attack is a huge weapon, the team with Kun, Sterling and Sane were devastating at it, our present forward line can look pedestrian at times.
 
The links are actually pretty heavy from decent sources

The links all saying the same thing, City interested in Pogba ( Merely an option )

More links were saying Ronaldo agrees to join City



According to the media, City are interested in 4 CMs ( Touchemani, Pogba, Frenkie & Nunes )

Yes, but I believe legally we can’t offer Pogba a contract until the season is over. We’d be in trouble if the links stated he agrees to join. We’ll see how serious all this after May 22nd.
 
So
Haaland is a go

FDJ, Barca media pushing Bernie if he still wants to go fair enough, I'd much sooner see Raz and/or even Gabby included

Pogba maybe replacing Gundo

all for 70 odd mill
Gone maybe
Fern sad
Gabby sad
Raz contract
Gundo legs
Bernie please stay

In maybe
Haaland looking good
Alvarez done
FDJ maybe
Pogba maybe

Still need 2 fullbacks in my opinion one for Kyle back up and I don't rate Cancelo defensively certainly not at RB

Bring on Cole next season for Riyad's last season

Our counter attacks normally involve Kev and of late he either doesn't get the pass right or puts it on a plate for Raz, we know what happens next. Used to love the link ups between David Silva and Leroy

that’s our issue, the only player who has the speed and ability to get into those positions couldn’t score in a brothel
