Florian Wirtz

I just can't go on watching gakpo much longer, it pains me, fucking boring, i'm sorry but it's a weak link and he sums a lot of boring play from us, think salah misses Diaz too, don't think gakpo does much to help him & no pace at all either, = no more room for salah.

All the top teams have pace on the flanks, we have none unless frimpong starts which is rare, and he'll probably have to play RB more.

Salah and Frimpong should have been devastating down the right. Kerkez and Rio the same on the other side. Then add Wirtz and Ekitike/Isak through the middle and that is a frightening lineup. We're not quite there yet and Salah is probably done but you can see the intention. Pace and goals all over the place.

Beyond the obvious Shilling taking place:


Marc Guehi was for sale this summer for an asking price of around £40 million. We wouldn’t pay that and tried to game it and force their hand - leaving it until deadline day - this despite Glasner stipulating that unless he had time to find a replacement no deal would happen. We gave him one day - and he somehow still managed to find a player but the fella chose West Ham instead - and time was up…!!


And Diaz ONLY wanted out AFTER his wage demands were flatly refused by the club. The F$G leaked media bullshit for the minions to swallow in full swing early in the summer which I called it out at the time. Setting up his sale to Bayern. Kerching,,

Imagine Wirtz feeding Ekiteke/Isak.. and 2 pacey attackers that can actually run behind the other teams back4..... another thing I don't get why people moan about Wirtz...... he's not exactly getting much help, it's slow, it's boring.... noone is making them runs... we move forward in attack like a bunch of oaps at times...

Already happening with Ekitike because he actually has a bit of pace, but the others pfff, they slow things down ruin attacks it's fucking boring...

Cherkis doing well at city, but they have runners, he's racking up the assists because of it, it's why haaland scores so many it's not all about him it's the wide players that help him.

we're winning jackshit with gakpo starting every game, and noone of note on the right, hopefully salah can come back and be good, not going to have any pace though with gakpo on the left.

Playing football manager on a forum is easy. No consequences and you can just ignore reality.

Diaz wanted out. Guehi wasn't for sale and we did sign two of the other 3.

Wirtz is one of the best young footballers in the world. No doubt there would be cries of WTF were we doing if he'd gone to City.

Try supporting the team you have, not the team you can assemble in footie manager.

Playing football manager? Do fuck off

That would be Edwards & Hughes sanctioning 430 in the spending on the wrong players based on something that to them and Slot looked good on paper

Completely disregarding the history of the club that changing from a winning formula unnecessarily before had proved very costly

Of the Premier League that the system and style Slot proposed was a system and style that became obsolete in the Premier League in 2020

It was the very height of amateur hour football manager looks good on paper never been tried and tested football manager cuntfuckery I’ve ever seen

Wirtz is a top player who we didnt need as he didn’t fit the system that made us successful and restored our standing in the game simple as we needed a Semenyo and to pay Diaz what he deserved we didn’t need a Wirtz
We didn’t need 2 No9’s either

Fantasy football bullshit was from Slit Edwards and Hughes and all 3 should have been long gone by now for that

I don’t give a fuck what you think you’re not a fucking Red you only came in here fleetingly in 2 seasons when things weren’t quite going as planned

You don’t respect lessons taught by Shsnks and Bob and you do t know or respect why we fell in the first place, Souness changing from the winning formula, selling players key to it and buying ones not suitable

You’re a know nothing gobshite troll

Yep. That's where's Salah's form has been a massive loss. The runs he makes are perfect for Wirtz.

Stop feeding the troll please Kev ffs

[Kev0909]

Stop feeding the troll please Kev ffs

That's just my opinion- not feeding anyone, anything.

I just don't like watching gakpo, is what it is, and I think he sums us up this season

City's 2nd goal tonight is what we miss, we once could score goals like that, pace, great passing& move. I miss those days, gakpo just ruins everything.

If I was playing football manager with $$$$$ to spend just a example
Gakpo
Endo
Chiesa
Possibly Gomez in the future (Window after with a younger fitter player)

Would be the first outs and replaced with pacey exciting attackers, that work hard too & a No6 & Guehi or another good CB, RB will be ok for now even if bradders spends most of the season injured every season, frimpong can play there at least, and if we got a no6 frees up Szob to cover too.

[Nineteenx]

We attack like that if you pay proper attention because Slit obviously wants everything to be a short passing game, the players in space needlessly not picking up are there for Wirtz to play wall passes off to try and instal him as a midfield playmaker which is pure folly in the modern game in the first place not workable anymore just have a player follow him round the pitch so very outdated

We play as shit and boring as we do as part of Slot’s football manager bullshit ideas that belong in the 70’s

He’s the fucker playing fantasy manager

Slots change if system fascination with Wirtz and summer recruitment changed how we played to the shit we’ve watched this season Kev nothing else

[JockStrap]

It's time for the wannabe fantasy football manager who doesn't rate Wirtz to start talking tactics.

Pay attention kids.

Even if we didn't buy wirtz or change the system as you say, I don't know how things would be different with the wide attackers...and gakpo playing every week, but he's great because he scores tap-ins and some goals sometimes, doesn't matter that he can't win a header no pace, doesn't really work well with the team. must be the most predictable boring attacker we've had in a long time.

Get tae fuck

You’re the know nothing who does NOT know or respect the history of the club or of the Premuer League

It’s not that I don’t rate as a player in world football we don’t need him end of and we didn’t need to change systems

Fantasy manager is what Slot has done put something untried and untested the group of players who won the league many of whom have been here for several years have never played and spent 430m recruiting g for a system the players who win the league and have been successful for the last 10 years have never played

That is the very essence of know nothing fantasy manager complete and utter shite

All of our issues this year have been through poor recruitment and a change of system, that’s it, that’s not fantasy manager and we have 10 years of tge 433 in the style we played it as proof

Where was Slot’s proof his fantasy manager plan that looked good on paper would work?

There was t any

Don’t cone at me talking shite you’re a know nothing forum troll

We didn’t buy the wide attackers because Slot planned to change the system that worked and prioritised over 300m on signing 2 number 9’a and Wirtz for a system untried and untested instead

That’s it Kev
