The College Dropout

Probably the main reason I want us to get CL football. He’s too good not to be playing in that competition at all.

Asked the lady to get me some cookies, Tropicana juice and chicken wings. She thought I was joking.

Love him.

Thought he was flappy

Top guy.

It’s that bit of quality I don’t think Gordon is consistent with. Lacks a bit of quality and class with that rifht foot. He’s almost brilliant.

Should’ve scored that

Pope will deal with these set pieces better.

Gordon is too pumped. Doing silly shit.

Great finish. A lot of players miss that.

My boy Hall looks lost in midfield. Let’s just got 541 pls.

Reckon we are doing that back 5 hybrid off the ball.

Rattled.

I rib him about the Naija players but Kaka is alright. although I’ll never forget Howe he switched from Eddie evangelist to a detractor overnight mind. Lad is capable of anything. If I met him IRL I’d still buy him a Guinness or any bevvy of his choice.

You’re so sensitive that you missed that I led with ‘in the little I’ve seen’. You love your Naija boys. nothing wrong with it.

Mate you just rate Nigerian lads. That’s it 😆 ive Rated Mbeumo, Wissa and Semenyo long before most. Rated Hall from the jump. Rated Amad Diallo after his loan spell. Even Elanga and Madueke are good footballers, just think we could do better for the money we would have to pay. For the price their current clubs bought them for - good to great buys. On Adeyemi - I’ve not seen much of him. What I have seen is a super quick player but ability on the ball leaves a bit to be desired. You like him though don’t you ?

Kaka obviously rates him. From the little I’ve seen he didn’t pass my baller test

Good point. Chelsea have been doing the short term deals. Some very dodgy sponsors in there too.

I’m not talking about a 1 off season. I’m talking about squads that qualify for Europe in multiple seasons consecutively. 3-4 seasons in a row.

To sustain a league finish in Europe and compete in the Europa league or CL to a good standard? I don’t think so no. It’s a thin squad low on quality.

£12-15m saved in wages. For 3 players that will need to be replaced with new signings.

Like the way Brighton Brentford and Bournemouth do business. But I think you need to spend at a clip close to the big 6 to sustain a challenge. That means revenues close to the big 6. That’s why I spend so much time in the PSR thread. Everything else (and to a point - current league performance) is noise.

These are not clubs that compete in Europe. Show me clubs that compete in Europe from the PL that spend that amount.

What’s with the colour coding with user names?

I don’t think Howe will be happy losing squad players and not replacing them. What manager would?
