Josko Gvardiol

[jrb]

Fucking Ryanair plane get's in the way.

I wouldn't mind, Michael Kevin O'Leary, the owner of Ryan Air, is a City fan, so he knew Josko was coming and he could have moved his Ryan Air plane out of the way.

I don’t get what all the fuss is about. For an extra £3M we could have had peak Maguire.

I'm surprised the media haven't mentioned it.

'The nearly man'

 

[Keeper!]

Mbappe has a lot to learn also

Without question but it shows what a frighteningly incredible player he can become.

 

[PistonBlue]

Can’t wait for him to make a mistake vs Burnley and being labelled a fraud

I know yeah, FFS

 

[AntonDonJuan]

The way is able to drive up the pitch and dispatch the ball, I would be surprised if he doesn't get +10G/A for us this season, given the way we play. Yep, in his first season!

He's a centre back....does he actually ever stay in position?

 

[Saddleworth2]

Stones and Gvardiol around Rodri in a 235 attack rather than 325

235 is the formation I used to play in the primary school team. Bloody hell we were ahead of our time.

So then, with the ball:
==============Ederson============
=========Dias=========Ake==========
======Stones==Rodri==Gvardiol========
==KDB=======Bernardo=======Grealish==
==============Foden=================
=======Haaland======================

That's a tough team to beat.

 

[Heath Park]

I love the way Josko just ghosts past the opposition and then puts on the after burners. Also the severe cutbacks on a dime to open up the pitch.

Good lord... what an incredible signing!! :-)

He will add a completely new dimension to our game... and under Pep will only get better!

That's a tough team to beat.

Bloody hell that is a fucking frightening team .

Ten Bobs 13 man Total Football will give it a good go with Oliver on VAR and Stuart Attwell leading the line.

That system would only work against teams without pace

You mean Fraudiol ;)

 

[horlock_was_super]

I am all emotional here.
When the young uns in years to come ask:
”What did you do during the great 2023 Gvardiol thread grandad?”
I can look them straight in the eye and reply:
”I made a stupid comment about butter and tracked the phantom plane whilst I was in work.”
Over 50 years a Blue and this is a proud moment indeed.
CTID.
As you were Blues.

A team with pace can do nothing if we have the ball.

 

[blueparrot]

That system would only work against teams without pace

It isn’t very different to how we played much of the vack end of last season in possession just Gvardiol for Akanji.

 

[Irlamblue]
