Saints (A) Post Match Thread

Do you think Pep keeps picking him because he believes he's a great player, or he's trying to convince everyone he's not spunked 60m up the wall on him and plays him because of that?

I think Pep keeps picking him because he can make errors in judgement just like any other person, manager?

Suspect he thinks Rodri will come good, but he's actually regressing at an alarming rate, a fundamental component for how we need to play, which is why the team is also regressing.

Has a touch of Pogba syndrome about it. United have known the truth for a long time, but they have continued to retain, play and talk him up, even when they know they have wasted their cash and he isn't suited to England.
 
Hopefully never. He is fucking beyond average.

As someone said in here the other day, not £50m better than Javi Garcia, who shared similar attributes.

He could do with losing a few pounds to see if that at least makes him more mobile.
You can see him blowing out of his arse when up against it

How many times did we see Gundo going back to retrieve the ball, Bernardo himself in the last 20 minutes doing the same

Rodri cannot control the area around him & flatters to decieve when driving fwd he just doesnt have it in his locker, the few times he does he cant get back when he loses it

People will laugh at me but Declan Rice in a City team would look class

Engine, works like fuck, tackles & knows when to pass & to go

His transfer would be stupid but UTD will pay it & they will solve a big problem for them as hes 10 times better than Fred & Matic

Not sure about this Zackaria kid, City now need Prem proven players Rice & Grealish give us what we need add a top forward & Angelino back then I'm happy thats with or without Messi £220m max should do it

Going off covid the last 12 months + next 6 months

Rice £60m 21 years old
Grealish £65m 25 years old
Haaland £90m 20 years old
Messi free

The next 6 months are the most important transfer dealings since Pep took charge imo with a forward a must & shipping out the crap & the not good enough players will Pep swallow some pride???
 
Great gritty win but some of our play was atrocious, the passing of Cancelo and Rodri at times was awful, both performed poorly again.
The finishing needs a lot of work still.
 
Doubt it. He is our only outfield player to have started every league game I think.

I think you have missed some of the thread regarding him and his future with City.

The thinking is that he isn't good enough for the role and will be relplaced if I have correctly understood the message.

I pesonally am inclined to agree with that assessment .

Not a prayer we'd get the two English lads for that price.
 
Your in complete denial.

The legend that is Kun Aguero is finished.

Jesus simply not good enough as an attacking force.

Sterling still misses the simple chances that in the big matches is not good enough.

Mahrez, FFS

Bernardo MIA for 18 months and even at his very best , does not score enough for a player of his ability.

Gundo, Rodri don't contribute enough in terms of goals and even KDB for his incredible ability does not score enough.

We are very, very short in attacking ability.

fucking hell after reading that I wont sleep till we've got 40 points

£220m is quite a lot of money when we have lost all of our matchday revenue.

if we can ship out 3/4 then I’m all for it!
 
Grealish could be our new David Silva, he is a Rolls Royce of a player, just needs an MCFC taxi/chauffeur to get him to training.

They'll want £100m for Rice
£100m+ for Grealish
 
I am not fully satisfied with this performances
I think we should improve so much, we can't win the league like this
BUT! What makes me happy is: we have became a team that fights 90 minutes to gain 3 points
from starting of game to 90th minute we play with full concentration
Actually we are like Atletico Madrid these days
But we should become more clinical, if we keep playing like this and improve our concentration and our finishing
, then maybe we will break the spell and reach ucl final
but I don't expect winning the league with this playing style
