    Squad

    So who gets the one remaining space in the CL squad? Will it depend on who’s due back from injury? Or taking a punt on Maddison or Kulu?

    Dejan Kulusevski

    When is the registration deadline? This place will be fun arguing over who to include. I’m off to the CL thread right away 🤪

    Dejan Kulusevski

    Which is more likely?? Hard to say :tearsofjoy:

    Dejan Kulusevski

    Probably next season now. But... Imagine if Kulu and Madders get fit, and we make it to the CL final. Both come on as subs, and help win the trophy. What a story that would be.

    Well that was fun. Next window can we install sofas, stock snacks, and hand out industrial bed-wetting sheets at the door.

    Xavi Simons

    The silver lining of a year of injury crises is that it’s forced the younger players to step up. Gray, Bergvall, Odobert, Simons and Tel have done. Without the responsibility of first-team football, how many of them would have been sent out on loan, or barely seen any game time to properly...

    Xavi Simons

    You have been giving Frank credit, don't get me wrong. My point was if you are going to be binary about the manager not getting the most from a player, do the same when they do come good. All good, the open point re. Heitinga is an interesting one. I think he was a bit of a coup. Was the first...

    Xavi Simons

    Yes you wraped it in nuance and gestured towards a broader picture, but at its core this is simply about bias. Xavi not hitting the ground running was black and white: Frank wasn’t using him correctly. You stated that was a fact. If you’re going to apply that kind of binary causation, then you...

    That would leave quite a bit of change. Imagine the pizz up with £145m worth of free beers and coke all round 😂

    This sums it up nicely. No histrionics necessary. We did okay signing a much needed midfielder. Bissouma back in the fold is like a loan signing and helps too. A promising LB. Fine. That said, there are two criticisms I think the club would accept. 1. we came into this window with a left...

    Xavi Simons

    I just find amusing that if Xavi isn’t playing well it’s on Frank (fact) and if he is it’s not Frank. 😂

    Xavi Simons

    Or…playing city who leave more space….or Xavi being 22 and settling in a new league and country…. Some of the mistakes he was making - not finding simple passes suggests is wasn’t only down to how he was used. But if this is your logic you should probably apply the inverse: that if he’s doing...

    Xavi Simons

    Not sure Odobert was as accomplished as he is looking now? But point taken, it is not so simple to attribute players form solely to the manager, which was my point too. Fact: Xavi has come good under Frank! 😂 Yes he has. Was it just Frank? Of course not. There’s a whole team of coaches. There’s...
