Txiki Begiristain

Nobody hates him.

Try and understand that people can actually be really pleased with someone over most things but still have concerns over others and this is a great place to share those things.

This website is bizarre at times. The importance so many posters put on the media when it's not important in the slightest and the way some posters don't allow negative discussions. It's odd!
But the problem we have from some posters is something called patience !! Instead of whinging when things don`t go according to plan,why not wait a while and see how things eventually turn out.Say September 1st.
Some are fucking moaning now about us only saving £2.5M,I mean WTF thats all about. ;)
 
So Txiki get the stick for not having bought a CB and LB because of a poor line up in a pre seasons friendly against a top 4 side Then buys a CB and then gets stick Surely the arsenal game result could have been different with a better line up Devils advocate how about leaving Txiki alone and questioning the manger ? Surely Txiki is getting the players the manger wants ? Surely Pep can make the defence better just by being a better manager Same with midfield
YCNMIU.It only happens with our fans.

Haha, that's fair enough mate! Some people are very frugal though :)
 
I think we've probably overpaid for Stones, and it looks like we did for Sterling too (and almost certainly for Bony!) - but it's clear that most clubs are overpaying and there's a premium on English players. We don't know Pep's long term plans and it could be that we need to buy English (or rather homegrown) in order to prepare for any departure of other homegrown (i.e. to keep our quota).
We also have to accept that we can't always get the world's best in a particular position, so we have to settle for a player with potential, or one that's at least an improvement on what we have.

It's been well documented that we wanted Stones, and now we've got him. We seem to be getting at least 50% of the guys we want, and that's pretty decent in my book.
If a player plays well, the fee becomes 'justified' - particularly in the eyes of the media. If they don't play well, then it's inevitable that the fee will be a stick to hit us with. And despite many people's views about media favouritism, if Pogba doesn't work out well at United, his fee will be used against them too - it's what the media does.

Overpaying isn't really problem if the players we get are the right ones and improve the team. We're about as hit and miss with that as most others - particularly Liverpool, United and Chelsea. Arsenal seem to escape the issue more by not spending on big name players very often, so their flops go under the radar a bit.
 
Stones, Gundogan, Sane, Gabriel Jesus and Nolito.

Plus getting the best manager in the world to manage us.

That's a fantastic summer, well done Txiki.

this could be our starting 11 soon, we've done some great business over the summer. lots of young players, which is what we needed
 
No way is this a transitional season. When you're at the top of the tree like we are you don't accept transition or consolidation. So, whilst certain fans may be losing their shit with a few days to go before the season starts, (largely down to a friendly played with a makeshift defence) there will be no excuses and we won't need any.

Nolito is a player who has an excellent goal and assist record for his club and just played for the most successful international team of modern times in a major tournament.

Calm down dears.


gen question. What tree are you referring to?
