That's like you say 2 years ago when he was young enthusiastic and playing at a top club was all new and exciting! Move it on 2 years and he's going downhill plus injury prone.
I'll be going with Guardiola's opinion over yours about whether a player is "any good". I think you understand why. ;)
Lads, kiam has spoken. Close threadPoor player with bad touch we shouldn't be wasting our time.
There are better players already in the EDS.
Can't see Pep wanting him.
Well people are looking at what are linked with and what Pep can/does play with to some extent. Let them think so by looking at their own perspective. You seems to have personl info from Pep himself?Why do people think we are playing wing backs? Like we would pay 49 mil for raheem to play him there, likewise ox. Jesus.
Bit of common sense. I ask again, why would we play sterling at wingback. Waste of his talents. Also, show me an example of 3 5 2 working in the prem. Pep will not use such a new formtio, he has tl get he players used to his game firstWell people are looking at what are linked with and what Pep can/does play with to some extent.

Quite possibly, but the question would then be could Pep persuade Oxlade Chamberlain to see himself as a fullback.Could Pep see Oxlade Chamberlain as a full back?
Early in Bobby's tenure we had a ton of English players. I remember watching an English international game that included (Hart, Lescott, Richards, Milner, Johnson...and I think Bridge) all in the starting lineup. Media still hated us.Can't underestimate the importance an English core will have in terms of the media opinion of us. Whether you care or not, how the media portrays you as a club/team is important, and I think it affects the referees, too.
If we have hart, stones, and a performing sterling and oxlade chamberlain, the media will suddenly become a lot more positive. Especially if those 4 are key in the England team going forward.
That being said....I like oxlade chamberlain, but I'm not sure he is going to propel us to where we want to be?
Fully agree. In fact we could have 8 or 9 and they would still hate usEarly in Bobby's tenure we had a ton of English players.

Well not really. As bad as chamberlains stats are, navas's arent much better. Its about potential. People thought costa was a downgrade on ribery, they were wrong. Pep has seen a lot of chamberlain, if he says jump i ask how high.He'd be a downgrade on Navas. Ox is shite.
Pep to not sign new full-backs, switch to 3-5-2, and play Sterling and Ox as wing-backs.
