    It's Quiet 18 - Wanna ring the bell?

    If you think so that is fine. I have been on here long enough to see him be very early and concrete with multiple transfer targets that we either ended up signing, or at least ended up having very real documented interest in. I also know not to trust him blindly because of experience, and also...

    It's Quiet 18 - Wanna ring the bell?

    And why would that make anyone already questioning him believe him? I'm just saying he has the credentials he says he has, while not having the best track record. But enough evidence that he at least is somewhat in the know. Which basically makes him as good if not better than most newspapers...

    I agree, and it is a fair point. But cold hard truth is that there aren't even 2-3 year periods where we see the results of our sales. Palmer were already finding his form in our shirt last season before we sold him. Perhaps not good enough in the long run but we could absolutely do with Delap...

    Yeah, I don't see how it is sensible. We won a treble with Palmer in the squad, I doubt anyone in hindsight think we would have done worse if he were given Doku's minutes last year. Instead we ended up strengthening a team we were miles ahead of to the point where they seem to be ahead of us...

    I disagree with this logic, especially when it's about young players in positions that are currently weak spots. You could say Chelsea were proven right about Salah and De Bruyne when they won the league in 2015 and 2017 after selling them, but when these two players go on to dominate the...

    Aston Villa (A) | PL | Post Match Thread

    Yeah, I get you. It is hard to say anything for sure, but it still is a bit premature to think along those lines for now. In my opinion the "shelf life" at a club has more to do with the cycles of the group of players in relation with the coach. This groups cycle is obviously done, so we can...

    Vincent Kompany | Bayern Munich Manager

    Meh, 2 more years of Pep and then Vinny sounds very good now when there are signs that Vinny is actually competent at this level

    It's like he trades his offsides for goals for 3 game intervals every season every couple of months

    Vincent Kompany | Bayern Munich Manager

    If he continues on this trajectory he will absolutely be City manager at some point. Which will be great to see

    Gabriel Jesus one of the streakiest goalscorerers of all time.

    Very harsh to say Ferguson had a shelf-life as a manager. The other is Ancelotti who has remained competetive and relevant for nigh on 25 years. Anyway, saying perhaps the most revolutionary manager football has seen has come to to the end of his shelf-life after his first streak of adversity...

    There is at least two managers in the somewhat modern era that didn't have shelf life, and remained competive at all times for most of their career. There is no reason to believe that Pep, an absolute genius isn't more like them, and less like the others. But, if it were the case that we had a...

    A positive note in a ocean of shit was that Foden seemed to finally wake up and understand that he is one of the guys that needs to drag us out of this. Hopefully we will see more of this to come

    It's Quiet 18 - Wanna ring the bell?

    As part of the collective absolutely. I still hope and expect a individual Premier League level performance from him though. I love Bernardo and Gundogan but they are both completely done at this level. Gundo is probably the worst midfielder in the league on the eye test, statistically he is...

    It's Quiet 18 - Wanna ring the bell?

    The charges were also there when we went out and signed the most hyped young defender on the planet for a massive fee. The charges are completely irrelevant to our transfer business. Our policy when the team has been winning has basically been one first-team signing every summer to bed in...

    It's Quiet 18 - Wanna ring the bell?

    If the charges go away tomorrow Gundogan, Bernardo and Rico Lewis is still the worst midfield in England. Poor recruitment has been arrogance, not due to the charges which would be the easiest thing to work around for incoming players

    It's Quiet 18 - Wanna ring the bell?

    Chelsea are kind of out of nowhere looking like the blueprint in how to rebuild a squad that needs gutting. Sign a quantity of the best young players you can get your hands on to long contracts and then be ruthless when you find the manager you trust to shape the squad. I expect them to get...

    It's Quiet 18 - Wanna ring the bell?

    Basically the only position in the squad we have somewhat adequate cover in is the goalkeeper position and he dropped Ederson as quickly as you could reasonably expect. Also tried Pusey at centre-back but backfired massively Basically every other position he has his hands tied a bit because of...

    It's Quiet 18 - Wanna ring the bell?

    He's a serial winner. He might be stubborn with his style, and his selections when we are winning. But he won't hesitate to replace some of these as soon as he gets the option. They are making him a laughing stock at the moment
