    Omar Marmoush

    There are some weird things going on at City. Now they're allowing Gakpo's name to be attached to them. I think they're in a bit of a mess TBH and can't figure out what to do. I think Marmoush is done personally (just my guess) and can absolutely see a late loan deal for Mateta incoming (Palace...

    This is an important area for him to improve in for sure. He does not lack the desire or effort to contribute, just the specific skillset. I believe it is coachable.

    Roberto De Zerbi *OFFICIAL*

    I think that is also a distinct possibility, agreed. I remain really surprised we didn't resign Palinha for another season. He would've started that game, agreed! And yes, I think that's right re: Bentancur. I chose to answer points where I didn't just agree with you, except for this last...

    The saddest element of this for me (and I generally agree with you BTW) is that of all the make-shift 10s we might operate, Sarr is the most effective (given that he is not a 10), however he is clearly being moved on. A shame IMO, but these are the moments where we must back the manager I...

    I am not sure anyone has let it happen TBH mate. Mitigation for Sat would certainly have to include no Porro, no VDV, no Kudus. I think that's fair. RDZ didn't seem to feel Fernandes was ready for a full 90, and it is clear he makes a huge difference. The front three are absolutely not the...

    Roberto De Zerbi *OFFICIAL*

    It's not about being 'right' it's about where we are (mate LOL)...I think part of the issue has been the realisation that as a club we absolutely do not rehab our players properly (or have not until now). I suspect this summer has seen a large shift in that approach. Which is why we started the...

    Lucas Bergvall

    I felt both of those were factors. I think he'll leave if we get good money for him. He is going to be a fine player for sure.

    Cody Gakpo

    I absolutely hope that we go in hard for Gakpo still...we need a big physical player upfront, so either him or throw the dice on go for Mateta. Otherwise we are going to suffer at set-pieces big time (people forget how great Romero was in the air and in the box - either one!)... Regarding...

    I feel that maybe we're at that stage where he needs a fresh start and a new adventure at a club where he can be him? Yesterday he looked unenthused, and I could not figure out if it is because he was being asked to play a role he didn't feel comfortable playing, or if his heart is not with us...

    I absolutely picked up on his vibe, yes. Strange.

    So enjoy the ride you're on and ignore the one you're not on...I get it, we've all been on similar rides with previous managers...but hopefully (as the years creep into our lives) we find the serenity to accept that some of the football circus is simply not worth our valuable time and energy. I...

    Agreed! No point going there. Speak with the ones who have?!!!

    @Robspur12 didn't say RDZ was 'clueless' in any interpretation. He posited a concern, but to my eye actually illustrated a great sense of belief in the manager. Mate...I said the same on the newest pod re: conditioning and fitness. And I think this is exactly what RDZ meant when he said 'not...

    ***Tottenham Hotspur v Charlton OMT***

    I genuinely believe our pod this week will offer some perspective. The dialectic approach. It was a brick performance and there are clear, clear reasons.

    Your point stood firm regardless :-)
