Stop peddling the myth that they had poor first seasons.... Don't try and bolster a poor start by Grealish by diminishing other players....
By your reckoning, if we have five new players who all take at least a year to perform...we may as well forgo next season. Behave.
You didn't say he had had a poor season. But I did. Well done for not understanding my point....Jack himself admitted it taken time for him to settle and alluded to other players taking time as well. ( I will post that video interview when I find it online!)
Where did I say he is having a poor season? - there is a difference clearly . Well done - not understanding my point.
He’s FrenchHe's finished.
Was it just me that miss-read this and thought you had Rodri in goal and haaland at dcm?I expect so.
Silva/Foden and Grealish can play any of the wide roles or the LCM. Rotate em as you like

I’d say all of them have, quality players who they have made a profit on, broke probably around even and one that looks like a huge amount of equity.
The economics and business model of that club, is a lot different to ours.
However, where they cannot compete with us on certain players. They have created a system where we struggle to compete with them (huge potential types, wanting guaranteed gametime).
No doubt they would love our turnover etc. which would allow them to compete with Bayern. But without that they have created their own niche.

Yep, he's 31 and has clocked up a lot of miles over his career. Too late to go after him now.No chance, he is incredibly injury prone, not someone you can rely for fluid passing and build up, and neither can he play as a defensive midfielder, he's more of a box to box.
Out of interest, what makes you think they haven't paid it?If i'm correct, Barcelona still haven't paid the first installment of Ferran Torres deal and owe us 14mil. If they can't pay it, would that make it easier for us to get De Jong because we'd have leverage?
No formation, just wingers
10 year younger players than the rags though.Going down the rag route of collecting wingers and strikers
True but the likes of Bellion, Bebe, Saha, Depay, Sancho etc who were still youngish when they rocked up and despite being overloaded10 year younger players than the rags though.
Don’t forget Obertan and Jizzjazz.True but the likes of Bellion, Bebe, Saha, Depay, Sancho etc who were still youngish when they rocked up and despite being overloaded
Yep they are the complete masters of that policyDon’t forget Obertan and Jizzjazz.
Stones is our best CB in my opinion as well...I’m not a big fan of ideal starting line-up posts but I have to say I’m baffled to see Laporte favoured over Stones a lot of the time. Stones is arguably our best CB.

I'd rather have a true CB from the academy in the line up than Dinho come Sunday...someone younger, faster and who actually plays the position...Mbete maybe...Well he could've given some of our talented young central defenders a few more minutes over the course of the season, I suppose. It's all well and good having a small senior squad supplemented by academy players, but only if you actually trust the academy players enough to play them
