So anyone that offers a different opinion is a “fuckwit”??At this point I’m hoping we sign Phillips purely because it will wind up the fuckwits on here. I hope Pep plays Phillips and Grealish nearly every match so I can smile knowing they’re frothing at the mouth in anger.
Angelino was 2 seasons after Mendy. But anyway, it's a game of opinions.Eh? I said “since Mendy”. Your list are all before Mendy except for Ake and Grealish, both of which I believe to have been good signings.
I just hope Pep plays his best players and they deliver.
That’s a “fuckwit” for you. Would love Pep to give the Academy graduates a chance to be honest.Yet you won’t trust his judgement in transfer targets?
Well, that was like the third time we bought him. Angelino actually came here 14/15 season. We bought him back in 2019 with our buy ac clause strictly so we could sell him on for a profit.Angelino was 2 seasons after Mendy. But anyway, it's a game of opinions.
Personally both Ake and Grealish have had half a dozen decent games each in a City shirt.
Before anyone says I am critical due to the fees paid, I don't care how much the transfer fees for any player we sign are, it's purely the effect on the team.
I was told on this forum by numerous posters back in September Grealish would come good by November, then by March and then next season. How long am I meant to give him.
Phillips, like Grealish, is just another of those signings I don't think we need.
Angelino we sold then bought him back on a selll back clause played a few games as a useful back up then sold at a considerable profit Never meant as a permanent additionAngelino was 2 seasons after Mendy. But anyway, it's a game of opinions.

I'm not particularly hot on Grealish but there are a lot of reasons why his first season might easily be his weakest. He has no experience in our style of play, or in the CL. He was the highest profile transfer of the summer, with a monster price tag. That is sort of a difficult start for someone with a character that attracts a lot of attention, especially after Euro 2012.Angelino was 2 seasons after Mendy. But anyway, it's a game of opinions.

Angelino was just about being traded because we could make a bit of dosh. Rodwell was a good player but he couldn't stay fit. He would only be regarded as a dud if he had the same injury problems at Everton. Pretty short list of duds considering that's over a decade and we've traded a lot of players in that timePersonally I think a fair few names in their haven't been flops, As you said it's all about opinions no harm in disagreeing that's what forums are for.
Grealish will come good I'm sure of that next season is his time to shine, It always takes a year to settle under Pep. Ake is a very good player he is just unfortunate to have players like Laporte, Stones and Dias ahead of him. He did play a huge part in the title win this season he was magnificent when called upon.
Bravo as a back up keeper single handedly won us a couple of league cups with his performances.
Otamendi is another played huge parts in our title wins.
Negredo was fabulous up top with Sergio and Dzeko the season we won the league.
The rest I'd say have been bad signings. It's vert rare we get it wrong over the last few years. Pity Jovetic couldn't stay fight definitely a seriously talent on his day.
Call me a happy clapper if you want but that's bolloxReady for the criticism from the happy clappers but we pretty much sign one dud every season. My money is on this one.
Lol! Am rolling on the floor right now.Ready for the criticism from the happy clappers but we pretty much sign one dud every season. My money is on this one.
They will defend him with their lives.I was told on this forum by numerous posters back in September Grealish would come good by November, then by March and then next season. How long am I meant to give him.
