This.

The fact that we played much better when he is on the pitch already enough to guarantee him a starting spot. I hope he can understand this and have more confidence when finishing the chance. I am serious, Mitrovic has to start under any circumstances. The painful truth is we dont have even 1 min of decent football this season when Mitrovic is not playing this season. McClaren is absolutely clueless.

One skill merchant. That said, I like his aggressiveness in 2nd half. And obviously opponents pay much more respect to him when he is on the right.

It is horrendous. Why is there no one supporting Janmaat and Sissoko on the right? Townsend is fucking shit.

Carver has a challenger

We are shitter after spending 24m. Seriously?

I think our core issue is not lacking a proven striker or left back. Its our shit centre midfielders that caused shit attack and shit defense. Saivet and Shelvey did solve this to some degree. Of course we have a lot of problems left behind but to say we didnt solve the most important one is a bit harsh. We definitely need to sign more defenders and a new striker in the coming summer but with these incoming we should be safe. McClaren is not Carver.

7. We could have got a LB but we missed out. I didnt feel good to have Saivet playing in center too but luckily Tiote stayed. I know I am minority here but I am satisfied even if we didnt get Berahino. Not only because I dont rate him that high, I also think Doumbia is good enough and Mitrovic deserves more chance. If we do sign Berahino one of Mitrovic or Perez has to go for not enough playing times.

I want him back. We are in full attacking mode anyway. Just score enough to win or not enough to lose.

Thanks for your service. Good luck Willo.

They were already relegated before they brought them in, they just couldn't accept it. Same here, isnt it?

Can someone explain to me why Ashley is willing to spend that much this window to help McClaren instead of sacking him and find a new manager? I honestly don't think he loves and trust McClaren to that level.

Lewandowski was once notorious for doing lots of things right except scoring/finishing, not until he has blossomed in Dortmund. I think I see sth similar in Mitrovic - too talented in a small league didnt help to treasure the chances because its too easy to get. And now he understands how important it is and he is catching up slowly and badly.

Perez will definitely ask to leave if we sign someone and threaten his starting spot. No point for him to stay as a substitute for us.

I call that classless. I see no point bashing a player like that.

I think it is correct to sign Mitrovic instead of Austin, even if the former needs time to develop. You couldnt let such talent go away when they are available and willing to join. Austin at best is just an EPL regular starter while Mitrovic could become an ace for any Champions League team. And the fact that no one else are in for austin probably indicates that his injury is serious and he may not back to his best.

De jong out is a good thing to be honest.

If you have begs of potential and worth to risk a relegation, like Mitrovic, fine. If you aren't, you better be an established player who can immediately improve our team and save us from relegation. Townsend is neither one of them. Tell me the rationale for spending 12m on a player like him when we are 18 in the table. With that part of money and decent research we definitely can find another Payet, but not Cabella or Thauvin, and now Townsend. Fuck this club.

Exactly what happened and why he was dropped in Spurs. In addition, to those who think he could provide service to Mitrovic, Townsend is also notorious for being selfish and always attempt to shoot rather than pass, hence why the new Robben comparison.

There must be something wrong for him if ALL Spurs fans thinking he is shit and wanna get rid of him asap. I repeat, ALL. The comparable player, just to make you get the feeling, is our Obertan. Even Colback and Gouffran got some defenders here but Obertan got none. And if you think this gamble is fine, you must be mad. 12m FFS. I would rather sign some upcoming youngsters in Championship than this.

Townsend is s***. What i see is this is literally the same as Thauvin case - everyone think he will fail and we are still willing to to take a gamble because he is young and have potential and if this materialize we are able to sell for big profits. Again team needs and players attributes and personality are ignored for the sake of moneym. f*** off man. In fact the same applied to Shelvey but since our midfield is s*** and Shelvey could hit a few pass for Mitrovic which we are lacking so i would give it a pass. But the ratioanle is the same. We didnt pay the money for the best candidate and instead go for gamble in order to sell high. f***ing hell. Gambling when we are at 18 fighting relegation is pure madness and greediness

He is a CB. A reliable back up CB thats it.

He deserves the no.9 shirt. Probably the most suitable one since Shearer.

Shelvey basically has no defense. Those who think Shelvey and Saivet could make a good partnership and bring us better results need to realize this hugely depends on how many goals we can score because now the protection for our back four is non existent. Compared to the brick wall that is Colback & Anita? You will realize a paper is better than an air very soon.
