27 | Matheus Nunes - 2024/25
- Thread starter Haaland94
- Start date
He is what at £50m player? He came with big price tag and he is being treated as some rotation option .if £50m players don’t play more who will then?- and we've been forced to play him and rely on far more than we should due to injuries/poor recruitment.

IMO Nunes is a symptom of the problem, not the cause of it. He's done well enough all things considered.
He's a decent player, but not a world beater - and we've been forced to play him and rely on far more than we should due to injuries/poor recruitment.
It's not poor recruitment when no one will sell to us or players don't want to come here with 115.
It's a concerted war effort.

What evidence is there that players “don’t want to come here with 115” ?It's not poor recruitment when no one will sell to us or players don't want to come here with 115.

Not quite true the reason why we did sign Nunes was the charges that were hanging over Paqueta. We were looking to add a bit more depth and although not first choice fitted the bill at the time.It's not poor recruitment when no one will sell to us or players don't want to come here with 115.

He's nowhere the failure Kalvin Philips was.
Second season is being trusted more and more.. and when he truly gets it.. I think we'll be like who the fuck were those clowns that called MR WHIPPY gone doggin?

I doubt this claim. First, Pep has played a good hand in being very bullish about the charges and also in extending his contract. Second, I’m pretty sure any elite player joining us would negotiate a release clause to trigger in the event we were out of the Champions League or worse.
There has got to be mate behind the scenes . Would you go to a job knowing that inn6 months you could either lose your job or have to take massive pay cut to balance the books . Even though there is no evidence it will be having an effect but as we do we want to blot it out and hope it goes away .What evidence is there that players “don’t want to come here with 115” ?

So no evidence thenThere has got to be mate behind the scenes . Would you go to a job knowing that inn6 months you could either lose your job or have to take massive pay cut to balance the books .

The players are not in normal jobs if the worse of all sanctions is applied they simply move due to a release clause in their contract
The lat thing “we” are doing is blotting it out hoping it goes away evidence is the number of pages on the thread
