A point on our transfers. We seem to be bringing in 'like for like' players in the most part, over players who improve us. I am not saying we are signing bad players, but we are not exactly signing players who seriously bring us up to another level, like when we signed Tevez, or when we got...

I find it hard to argue with any of that. When we signed Aguero, Yaya and Silva, they were big big names, like Di Maria was when United signed him, or when Chelsea signed Costa etc. They are all proven at being top top players at the very highest levels within the game. No criticism to some of...

Re: Sergio Aguero We sort of did it with Tevez. One of the big things is making him the only 'selfish player'. This is one argument why Dzeko is not suited to playing with Sergio. Dzeko is a good player and if a team was built around him, he would thrive, but he does not have the desire at the...

Tactically, if we play 4-4-2 we should be more direct! 4-5-1, retain possession. We have being doing the opposite. Play Dzeko as a Target man and sergio as a poacher? PHWOAAAR

Please tell me how that happened!!

Re: Mangala That you are judging a young player on handful of games, in a different club, country, culture, League and playing style. There is far more to his game. He has barely stepped through the door and people are already on his back. There is no chance that we would have paid the kind...

Im not sure, but he tracks back and he is cup tied.

Re: Mangala Behave. I would like to revisit this discussion at the end of next season.

Re: Mangala I would not disagree with you. I dont think we should disrupt a winning formula (obviously today was an exception with Vinny injured) But I think the lad will be a player.

Re: Gael Clichy Smith-Brown I think? Maffeo and Facey are both right sided.

Re: Mangala Seems that many posters on here just think that if you pay 30 mil, no matter who they are or what position they play or what system they are used to, you are just crap if you don't perform from the off. MDM took time to settle in a seasoned defender, Garcia was the same. I could...

Re: Sergio Aguero Like Barca do with Messi, its crazy that we dont.

Nothing wrong with a nice dripping bag of tea, coming out of your cup and being squeezed around the sides. When milk is splattered ontop of it, it ruins the beauty.

No chance I would want to get rid without a ready made replacement like Pogba et al. In or out of form, he is a world class player.

Agreed, top player. Just look at his last few seasons with Madrid. He is an actual, proven big name. Unlike many who we have signed.

Sounds like an interesting Belgian beer

Re: Mangala Top post. Most informative and critiqued him superbly. I fell you have rocked my footballing world. I can now see the game in a whole new light. Thank you for your in depth analysis and for clearing all the fog and haze that surrounds the beautiful game.

I never said that it was 'nothing'. There a few lads who would put a good turn in, especially in comparison to one or two of the first team at the moment. The attitude of negativity and 'oh they arent good enough' is crap. Unless they are tested, no one can say that for certain. By giving them...
