    Radu Drăgușin

    He will look decent playing for a box defending team, it doesn't need to be in Italy. He's just not suited to a higher line possession side. He's too poor on the ball and just all around technique wise for anything beyond that.

    The Overlap - some interesting comments from Ange

    I'd personally want the manager to have the perception themselves to make the adjustments that everyone but him could see were needed. It is a strength that he was receptive but it's primarily a weakness that it took his two senior CBs approaching about needing a change for him to actually make...

    Johan Lange - Sporting Director

    We've always had decent scouts, we've always identified players with massive potential. What we've rarely done is actually go in for those players with confidence. The list is ginormous, the likes of Cavani, Suarez, B Fernades, Moutinho, Veloso, Lookman, A Gomes, Hazard, Cahill, Grealish, Dias...

    Is that really true though. Frank asked them to push at times also.

    The "If we go down" thread

    Funny thing is I think we'd have quite some difficulty selling for anything reasonable. The players themselves are mid but their wages tend to be high. Not many are getting a Top 6 and those are the ones who can afford the fee and wages.

    OMT *** Tottenham Hotspur v woolwich *** 22.2.26

    Sadly I think the truth is no. Even if everyone were fit the first 11 has some pretty glaring holes, add a few injuries and it just looks quite inept. I think at times you can outplay your qualities or base level if the balance is right, if you have players whose attributes compensate for the...

    ENIC

    Is Gray actually that good on the ball, really? Hes not awful by any means but hes never really done anything impressive or out of the ordinary that you wouldn't really expect from any PL level player? Hes got potentially but people are speaking of him as if hes already there now and that I...

    We already know VDV is willing to not listen to his managers instructions or at the least will modify them when he sees it to do so.

    I thought he was our best player period.

    OMT *** Tottenham Hotspur v woolwich *** 22.2.26

    I hate 3 at the back and I don't think its ever going to work here and especially not with this group of players. Its such a specific system that requires non rounded player attributes, I just dont see it. Even if we had a 100% fit squad I still dont see how we put together a cohesive side, too...

    Dragusin looked good? When? These concerns were always there. The excuse that he might look better under a box defending coach like Frank was even made. Dragusin is what he is, his limitations are what they are.

    If we got an elite manager we'd need elite players to go along with that. I think we should stay with the mediocre managers, it suits the levels of our players better.

    OMT *** Tottenham Hotspur v woolwich *** 22.2.26

    I remember I used to absolutely despise the woeful duo of Sissoko and Winks. It used to have me almost poking my own eyes out they were so bad, but it does have to be said no matter how crazy it sounds; that pairing is better than anything we put out together this season. Which is crazy because...

    Radu Drăgușin

    VDV is an interesting one because he has the look of having solid technique and the way he plays the ball "looks" refined, but his passing is utterly basic in its use. As a squad in general we are rather basic, not many with crisp passing. Its crazy how poor we are in that regard. I could cope...

    Xavi Simons

    Not to make excuses for him but Simmons needs players around him to feed and feed off him. He's a classic pass and move style orchestrator but we never have the players around him nor do we really have them on the squad. He's a system player not being played in a system, he will be poor. Now...

    Radu Drăgușin

    I think it's moreso some will emphasize being good at the basics first. If you're good with those things then your secondary abilities don't have to necessarily match. Look at someone like Dan Burn, he's not particularly technical, nothing great about his touch or composure, but first and...

    Tbh mate I don't think it matters what formation or system you play, fundamentally our players are lacking. Meaning that at the key moment they will do the wrong thing.
