Mitrovic ffs. This will be going on until he’s practically dead.

We already have the forward who’ll take us to the next level. Unfortunately we isolate him from the midfield, waste his body having him chase lost causes and / or have Almiron to his right which doesn’t click for multiple reasons. The next signing for the midfield / out wide needs to done primarily with the goal of preserving and getting the best out of Isak.

Well I’m confused.

Both extremely limited English managers and former captains / central defenders more skilled at toadying than owt else.

No. Hall came in after.

So good we didn’t extent his contract and instead brought in Fitz Hall.

He’s better in all of those aspects than Coloccini though. Brave and assertive too.

My point was you couldn’t play a high line with a defender like that. None of the clubs in the current top half have a starting CB so susceptible to athleticism / physicality.

Coloccini was a physically small CB who got bullied out of the way on a regular basis though. They don’t.

Given Trippier Schar Botman Enrique Lee Bruno Beardsley Robert Isak Shearer Asymmetrical title winners. Left back the one glaring weakness.

I liked Hatem a lot but I don’t see where you can fit him in really. Had much better options out wide and you couldn’t put a player like that in midfield.

Colo got murdered by Shane Long. All forwards are super athletes now and he’d still struggle hugely in any team that doesn’t sit very deep.

Tiote? I know everyone sees things differently and that’s amazing but Jesus Christ that’s a mad pick. There’s a reason Rafa didn’t want him anywhere near the side even in the Championship.

You been on the bourbon, brah?

Given starts for Man U and Arsenal without me putting any thought into the rest.

Was Mike Hooper.

5 out of 10 is pretty outrageous. So he’s only conceded 4 of the 10 penalties faced. Really impressive, but he’s built to save them. Long arms, and despite the numbers saying there’s only 2 inches between them a quick Google suggests it’s more like 5. Given gets the nod overall because as said he was playing behind comparative clowns.

Pope has saved a lot of Penalties for us. Probably already more than Given.

He did against Fulham and looked a bit fish out of water there. Much better on right.

Livramento needs to be on the right.

Building all sorts of fucking high rises.

You still fluffing Southgate, York?

‘Keeper makes a good save, actually.’ The ball went it.

Hendo, honestly.

Played for 6 clubs after us, made 75 appearances and scored 0 goals. Was never a fan of him as a player but could never fault his attitude. As a manager I hope he smashes it.
