January Window

Aye.

[JockStrap]

I’d be made up if we did finally land him.

I suppose there's a first time for everything.

You'd just find something else to moan about. I don't know why you bother glory hunting at all. You don't seem to even enjoy one minute of one game based on your comments in the match threads. Bowls might be your sport. A bit more relaxed.

[Steveo]

Aw - confused much?

Which is it now?

Am I a 'glory hunter' or do I 'never enjoy a single minute'? You need to pick a lane, mate. It’s hard hunting for glory when you're busy being miserable at the Bowls club.

[JockStrap]

You're a full blown glory hunter. That's why you're never happy, no matter what the club do.

[Steveo]

Aw - poor jokestrap..

Man City close to agreeing terms with Semenyo

Newsflash....... for those that still think it's possible for some reason, he's not coming.

[Kev0909]

Yildiz would be a ridiculously promising acquisition if we continued his development. Not sure how viable it is, but that'd be one Hell of a piece of future-proofing.

I'd obviously love Guehi here (who wouldn't?) but I have concerns about us maybe paying £20m or more for a player with so little time left on their contract - it could set a precedent for the market for future years.

What's better paying 20-30m for Guehi in January

Or fear of missing out on champions league- him not joining us in Summer... and having to find a CB for double the price?

No brainer really...worth it especially with the english tax.... if we miss out on top4 he could go anywhere in the summer...

Aw - poor jokestrap..

haaa the gimp, thats joke strop on a weekend

You do realise the old way of pressing from the front is old now?
Most teams press from the front, which is why Klopp had to resort to a high line in 21/22 when “experts” like yourself were attacking him for doing so even though the defence was managing.

Football is a chess game, always evolving. Teams now use a low mid block press and Slot is trying to copy the PSG model. That’s not an overnight fix. More numbers in the press in the low mid block, quick outball release with one pacey full back/winger/wingback. Pingpong being injured has hampered that. Wirtz is key to this system but it’s taking longer than hoped.

Buying guys like Ekitike and Isac isn’t some “haphazard” transfer policy like you’re going on about. It’s by design. We’re moving away from the old way because even garbage managers like Dyche are doing it. It’s old now. Klopp did it. It’s OLD!

You make out you’re some football guru but the amount knee jerk ignorant shite you post is embarrassing. Just stick to the pom poms and “Can I get an L…I…” during games. Know your limits son.

I said this less eloquently in another thread...we always struggled when teams park the bus....the likes of wirtz and Eke are here to address this....we just beed to get the balance between that and the press right...

I concur.
