Brian Marwood (merged)

Re: Well done Brian Marwood.

I don't get this comment. We have replaced De Jong with both Garcia and Rodwell. How is that not an improvement on last year?

CM and CDM are too different positions. Roswell and Garcia are defensive midfielders. What we need imo is a third runner who partners Garcia/Barry and Yaya. A passer of the ball who helps speed up play from back to front. Someone who can deliver a killer ball to the box.

Compare with Barca say.

They have Busquets as CDM and then have Iniesta and Xavi in CM. Thats 2 CMs and one CDM.

We play with 2 CDM and one CM. Yaya passes amazingly but our CDM don't. A Sahin tupe player would and provides us with a quicker build up play and provides cover once Yaya is out.

Don't iniesta and Xavi play the Silva and Nasri role?

All this CM, DM and AM stuff is FM bullshit. Midfielders are more versatile in real life and I think you will be surprised by Garcia. He is not DJ MkII

When I attend games I don't watch where the balls going, I watch to see our failings and where we lack. CM screams.

You're being silly now.

What with the FM bullshit? Are you unable to debate like an adult?

Cdm is a defensive midfielder. Barry and DeJong are this, now also Rodwell and Garcia.

Cm we have Yaya and that's it, Milner can do a job there but really he's an allrounder utility player as we know.

Cam is Silva and Nasri. Both are play makers doing the same job.

In Iniesta and Xavi you have a player that sits in CM linking up play from Busquets to Messi/Pedro/Villa/Sanchez.

They dictate passing and movement whilst retaining possession and look to bring in an attacker.

With is we bring Yaya in to run from the halfway line to the box and then link up play. We have Silva and Nasri sitting high up and if we lose ball we get murdered on the counter. By utilising deeper player you retain depth whilst the option to ping a ball in for Silva etc to get on the end of. Never losing composure or being caught out.

It also means that we aren't reliant on Yaya to make our play happen. We would have someone to help the load our.

United for example will have Fletcher holding and Scholes and Carrick in CM. That's my whole point.

Well done Brian Marwood.

I think Marwood and co have a Vital job to do. Look what happens when a manager gets free reign (Harry has left a Trail of destruction behind him as a result of this approach)

Marwood may well be gone as a result of the new CEO But he has helped the club reduce its wage bill, strengthened the squad and secured players who's sell on value and wages should secure future generations of the teams development. He has also sent out a message that we will not be held to ransom on wages or Fees.

Re: Well done Brian Marwood.

Yeah them Silva and Nasri fella's needs to shape up a bit, because our friend here can't see them on the telly.

Yep, his credibility is dwindling.

Because you say so?

Pick faults with my points but not me as a person. You know fuck all about me and my points are clear and concise.

Attended many games last season. Even the UEFA games which a few didn't bother with.

Your credibility is dwindling because as an adult you cannot debate with insulting. Your level has been found.

Enjoy the game on Sky today.

Re: Well done Brian Marwood.

OK window in the end. We lost some good players and replaced them with ones equally as good....unfortunately this still resulted in us overspending as the money we got in was lower than it should have been for players like Ade and NDJ.

I think this window's best feature was clearing out the crap. We don't have to worry that Savic or RSC will somehow find their way onto the pitch and cost us dear. Our squad looks to have more depth and cover now. Basically we've tidied up.

In future I can see one big name per season but this was a time to bolster the squad players and rid ourselves of past mistakes.

However, Gary Neville is unfortunately correct, leaving everything to the last day is not good planning from Marwood or whoever.

We got away with it this time but it can't be allowed to happen again...ever. That is what Mancini is getting at and he's dead right.

Prove me wrong then. Pick faults in my posts please.

Your an absolute wanker if ever there was one on here. Shit attitude who cannot be debated with. Why join a forum?

I will enjoy the game on sky because I'm out with a team today, coaching as I said. On that note I will leave you to it. Layers guys.

I've never foe'd anyone on here but you're going to be the 1st - you give me a bastard headache, the funny thing is you're actually believing that drivel, you're not a wum.................

Before i send you into outer space you do realise what makes yaya affective???? Diversity during games, you have to have players who play more than one role sunshine, a fixed blueprint leaves you with sweet FA - each one of those signings, like the last 5/6 we've made are jacks of all trades which in essence sets our squad above all others in the league - FACTAMUNDO DUDDDDDDDEEEE!!!!!!

Why do you keep banging on about 'debating like adults' and then throw insults at people like you're in a school playground ?

Re: Well done Brian Marwood.

Well hopefully I`ve got someones attention just by merely the thread title.
Yes its true I do believe that Mr.Marwood deserves some praise in helping secure the services of 5 players after receiving some unfair criticism over the past month.
Did we get who we actually wanted ? Did Bobby get his full quota of Players and those Players from his Liist "A" ? No I very much doubt that,seeing and hearing that we lost out on Hazard,De Rossi etc,who allegedley were initially our prime targets.
However reading some of the crap on here,belittling the guy on various fronts,due to losing out on the above two players (and possibly more) its time we settled down and give Marwood a little bit of credit.
Our last two signings appears to help appease those fans who slagged him off,for bringing in Wright,Sinclair and to some extent Maicon,where thge concensus seem to be a bit divided by fellow Blue Mooners at the moment.
We lost Savic and my hero de Jong,with the Club and moreso Marwood again coming under severe criticism for only getting an assumed amount of £3.5M for Nige.That figure came out of the gutter press and last night we heard that the actual fee was anything from £7 -10M instead from James Cooper,another person who came under fire from Blue Mooners for giving us a figure of £16M for the services of Garcia,which looks like it could be correct,with adds ons to come.
I`ve said before this thread,too many people think that Twitter and the Press are the bees-knees of reliable information and when the shit hits the fan and we realise that this isn`t so,Marwood gets it in the neck.
I am NOT discussing his role in the Academy,as I don`t know enough.However,it has been stated before by Khaldoon that His Highness and himself hold BM in esteem for his work carried out in securing transfer targets,or not in some cases,due to circumstances outside of the Clubs remit.
Some Blue Mooners need to realise that Marwood just does NOT go out and buy who he wishes as an individual.This is done with a Committee which also includes Bobby Manc,who will have more than a say on who comes and who stays.
Am I expecting a deluge of fans to agree with me ?? No fucking chance and people will still be of the opinion that Marwood is shite in their eyes.
Come January we start all over again,but with our new CEO now in place,will we see anything different in the way we conduct our transfers and more importantly will Marwood still be dealing directly in this role ?
Who knows,but I for one am relieved that we have bought some class players in this window,not to everones taste I know,but its better than it looked at 8.00am yesterday morning.
Now,let battle commence.Good job my shoulders are as broad as my Guinness waistline and I`ll see anyone for any further debates in the Waldorf this afternoon from 1.15pm onwards or Summerbees from 4.00pm.

I haven't read the whole thread yet, all I can say is that I wouldn't like to be playing Poker against Mr Marwood.
