It's Quiet thread 14 - 'do one' edition

[Neville Kneville]

I meant the season resets not the squad - the squad always has to evolve

Sane would have gone last season if not for the injury

I know the concerns about Sergio and our reliance on him BUT Torres brings another dimension to our squad which we didnt have last season (pace on either side and on the outside of the fullback) - he allows more fluidity in the front 3 than we had even when Sane was playing.

We arent scrabbling around - most of the deals will be already in place - this is how it works...all the contracts drawn up, paper work ready just for signatures - its the way its reported that makes people think that clubs rush around but they dont.

We have tried to replace Kompany - players wanted elsewhere - you cant blame the club for that. We cant over pay for everyone and the club has made it clear repeatedly that they wont. Thats not a good financial model as being proved by that lot over the road who slip more and more into debt with crazy transfer fees and massive wage bills - look what happened with Sanchez and people on here were going mad when we missed out on him - again another bullet dodged

The loss of David Silva while absolutey gutting also allows Bernardo more game time which I believe he needs - now while he is not at the level of David Silva he again adds more dimension and goals

You are not doing the reputation of the folks you are defending many favours by describing all the shite they tried to sign tbh.

If you haven't heard of this kid before I am genuinely shocked. You must be following very little of any football aside for City

That's true to be fair. I hardly know any new players since I stopped playing Football Manager when it got too in-depth (hence boring) about 3 years ago.

Football Manager has been too in-depth since 2008 lol

Mustn't be good because it's not on Twitter!

 

[HalfwayUpTheKippax]

What about these Pugh, Pugh, Barney McGrew, Cuthbert, Dibble, Grubb?

Are you saying that he's a fireman's helmet?

Not as desperately as a WC CB. But definitely do
