It's Quiet 17 - Glory Thread

[Decepticon]

OK I know this is sad for a 50 year old and not 100% accurate but I worked out teams over 8 games if we were to rotate 4 players every game playing 4-2-1-3 after the transfers of Raz and Cucurella

1. Eddy, Walker, Cancelo, Dias, Laporte, Rodri, Bernie, Kev, Foden, Haaland, Mahrez
2. Eddy, Walker, Cucurella, Dias, Stones, Rodri, Foden, Kev, Grealish, Haaland, Mahrez
3. Eddy, Cancelo, Cucurella, Stones, Laporte, Phillips, Bernie, Kev, Foden, Haaland, Mahrez
4. Eddy, Walker, Cancelo, Stones, Dias, Rodri, Gundo, Bernie, Grealish, Haaland, Alverez
5. Eddy, Cancelo, Cucurella, Dias, Laporte, Rodri, Gundo, Kev, Grealish, Haaland, Foden
6. Eddy, Cancelo, Cucurella, Dias, Stones, Phillips, Bernie, Kev, Grealish, Haaland, Mahrez
7. Eddy, Walker, Cancelo, Dias, Stones, Rodri, Bernie, Gundo, Foden, Alverez, Mahrez
8. Eddy, Walker, Cancelo, Dias, Laporte, Rodri, Phillips, Kev, Grealish, Haaland, Foden

So out of 8 games Eddy plays (8) Walker (5) Cancelo (7) Cucurella (4) Dias (7) Laporte (4) Stones (5) Rodri (6) Phillips (3) Bernie (5) Kev (6) Gundo (3) Foden (6) Haaland (7) Mahrez (5) Grealish (5) Alverez (2)

This means zero starts for Zinch, Ake or Palmer. So if we keep those players as well, we are covered for 3 injuries. In my view there is no need at all to replace Sterling. We've also got Delap, Mbete, Wilson-Esbrand and McAtee to call on in a dire injury crisis

Hahaha that's hilarious.

 

[Coatigan]

Absolutely and might become a superstar. I’m yet to be convinced though.

We saw potential in Marlos Moreno too.

Hope he doesn't go on loan. If he stays, wouldn't be surprised if we saw more of him next season than of Palmer.

 

[wattle]

Hahaha that's hilarious.

I did get to my point on the end though haha

 

[Coatigan]

Yeah that was truly funny.. him and Jesus signed at the same time.. if there was truly ever a yin and a yang signing.. those 2 were it!

Moreno went to Girona. Down the black hole.

 

[Coatigan]

Goes to show that scouting youngsters isn’t an exact science.

And that Girona is a curse.

 

[crossbar]

People asking for Sterling to be replaced ”because of pace”, how slow players do you think we have? Alvarez, Haaland, Foden are all quick, Mahrez too. De Bruyne, well driving the ball through midfield like a raging bull is his signature move. We won’t have a problem with pace at all on the counter and I don’t understand the argument. I’d like to see Grealish sprint a bit more but I don’t doubt he would do a decent job either.

 

[Coatigan]

Why?

Because the club want to win things.

 

[Cobwebcat]

I’d be astonished. We’ll see.

You’d probably get huge odds on that if bookies would even offer that.

I might look into it.

Nothing at all to back it up, and it isn't even a case that I rate the player more, I don't. I just have a feeling that Pep might. And I can't really specifically say why. Just a feeling, that it wouldn't surprise me.

It is his final year of his contract. He might have gone mad, but I doubt he’ll get more than a few minutes off the bench when 5-0 up and only then because of the 5 subs rule change.

Haven’t you had the memo from the overseas plastics on Twitter? Apparently Ortega is better than a keeper with six league titles in the last seven years in Europe

Dembele on loan from Barca for a year? Helps them wage wise and we see if we can get the Dortmund quality Dembele back?

 

[MCFC1993]

Amazing how well run we are.

Recouped so much money from players that are nowhere near the 1st team.

The players are doing well out of it as well, either progressing their careers with moves to decent teams or moving to teams and getting first team football.

He's not even on Barca's books anymore. He'd be a free. Also question marks over his injury record and behavior not showing up for training. Also a racist.

Is he not out of contract rather than theirs to loan?

Not that I'd want him

 

[Hashim]

There’s something big coming I don’t know what it’s but I can feel it in my bones, hopefully I’m not wrong. And it’s not something bad.

It's Isco mate, finally after all this time.

Do you live next door to him.
