Super Duper Branko Strupar

Whitley Mag with shocking takes again?

Has last year's league been reactivated yet? Not seeing it.

Zubimendi is mint. That'd be a good signing for them.

He fucking loves it, man.

Pav Griffin Albert Schar Enrique Nobby Bruno Speed Pedro Shearer Tino

What do you think?

Thats a fantastic shout

Aye that was mad.

Had a trail for Stockport County tonight. Along with Ollie Norwood.

Was about to reply to that, hes no where near peak value. What an odd statement to make. He's got 5/6 years of improvement yet. If he keeps developing and is a mainstay International, we'd get more than we spent even if we sold him at 28.

Makes sense after his Daz-ling displays in the Euros.

He's been class since his Swansea loan. Get him signed.

Can we lock this thread pre-emptively?

Its not bad management. Its circumstance. We were probably a bad injury crisis and/or a hungover Manchester City team away from not having to sell 2 players to comply. But these are the decisions you make to try and change the future, there's not only 1 way. Follow it or its wrong. It's not a computer game. We invested to try and avoid relegation, that was successful. We invested to acheive Europe, that was successful. We invested to try and go as far as we could in 4 competitions. We struggled there, because of course. But if Tonali hadnt been suspended (please no one bang on about how this was a mistake not knowing), or if Isak hadnt been injured for so long, or if the ref hadnt given PSG a penalty that wasnt, we may well not be where we are now. All these things contribute. You speculate to accumulate, to grow and prosper. Things went against us, so we were forced to carry out the back up plan, sell players. Including a young, unproven player for a very good fee, far too good to turn down given what he'd acheived up to that point. It was, in fact, all very sensibly planned. And if you think we were frantically trying to work out what to do in the final days of the deadline I think youve fallen for media hyperbole. And weirdly all too eagre to discredit, despite it all being a tiny part of a much bigger story. And stop going on about the buy back and sell on, its beyond unrealistic. We wouldnt have got the fee for him we did with either of those, he didnt have the histry to back it up. And maybe we didnt want to buy him back, we're probably looking at better players. Just because you've read some stats on twitter and seen some highlights reels on youtube, doesnt mean the club should want to either retain him over pocketing the cash which has meant we could fill other positions with better, more proven players, or buy him back in the future. We dont want to, evidently. Which makes perfect sense. So I'll say it again, anti club. Because you're choosing to ignore a multitude of other facts and factors just to try and form a narrartive against them on some narrow minded conjecture.

You have such a weird anti club agenda. Seemingly designed only to forward your own at its expense.

I am so sick and tired of this bullshit arguement, I've never even seen Minteh play and already, I can't stand him. I HATE MINTEH. And I'm not going to hang around here busting my balls over something that quite frankly, isn't that damn important. Now I'm going to hang out with that geek over there, because at least she has something else to talk about other than Yankuba Minteh. God damn.

He can't be upset at losing a player he likes, despite our need to free up funds?

Jesus fucking Christ, man.

Sell Gordon and put Miggy on the left when we buy a new RW

Are you dense?

I cant for the life of me understand how anyone would want a management structure where manager of the team gets pulled rank on for transfer decisions.

You've been told who did it, man.
