It's Quiet 17 - Glory Thread

5 sub or not, Pep rarely will make 2+ subs in a game. there could be the odd game where we 7-0 up in Carabao early rounds, and he will make 5 subs but thats all.

there will be more games with 0 subs than 4 or 5 subs knowing Pep.

I haven’t checked but thats most likely one of them myths that people think is real. Bet the games we made no changes can be counted on one hand.

Maldini said if I have to make a tackle I’ve already made a mistake. Maybe is positioning is that good

Pep: “I don’t coach tackles”
Led to all sorts of impotent rage from gammony ‘real football men’
And also his classic “Stan…Collymore?” exchange

Re Bernardo, Jack Gaughan said yesterday we’re not expecting him to leave & we won’t get the price we’ve set.

Did he say anything about a LB mate?

Edit: this is what Simon says about LB

Williamson in the womens final was quite rightly being praised for making no tackles in the tournament, and just being in the right place.

Yep modern defending is as much about position, shape and blocking passing lanes as it is about duels and slide tackles

awaits the susual suspects to come along and tell us all to “wipe our fannies”. criticism of the club isn’t aloud on this forum mate

Of course it’s allowed. Could equally say supporting the club is anathema to the fanny wipes.

Comments like yours are the refuge of losers who have given up on proper debate.

Yeah - said he thinks we’ll get someone.

Probably waiting for Neymar and Cucurella’s plane

Some ITKs think it's done if a player agrees on personal terms.

Clubs agreeing on a fee is usually the tricky part of a transfer.
