Some have mentioned how poor recruitment has been, and I largely ignored it and tried to stay positive and back the squad - injuries have hit us and our squad’s won 4 titles on the bounce, bound to happen I thought.

But I just had to pinch myself when I saw us with Nunes on the wing. And then with Savinho coming on. They’re not bad players - they’re very good. In fact, Nunes was great at Wolves; Savinho great at Girona. But that’s that - for a while we’ve been assembling a team of ‘big fish small pond’ players (e.g. Grealish) and whilst we got a lot of these decisions right, and I’m not sure there’s another way of sensibly building a squad in the financial fair play climate, we’ve reached a stage where I’m not actually confident looking at our lineup anymore.

I say this for two reasons:
(1) I’m persuaded we need to recruit aggressively.
(2) WHY CANT WE JUST PLAY FODEN / BERNARDO / GREALISH AS WINGERS. We won the Champions League that way. Nunes was never a winger, and Savinho’s best experience is bloody Girona!
 
That centre mid pair is fucking shocking.

Won’t get the ball to the wingers with them
Not cabals of passing the ball to each other.
 
Its atleast nice having actual wingers out wide... now lets get kev or grealish or O Reilly on for Lewis.
