colinmk Posted January 24, 2012 Share Posted January 24, 2012 If I was managing a top class team there would be a couple of things I'd try not to do. One of them would be sign brazillian central defenders/goalkeepers. Actually Id sign Brazilian defenders and goalkeepers, Id stay far far away from offensive players. We have probably worlds best defender and two best fullbacks in Silva, Marcelo and Dani Alves. 2 years ago best team in Europe consisted of 2 Brazilian defenders and one goalie. Dont let David Luiz fool you, our strongest department is defenders nowadays well after Neymar basically. I wasn't on about fullbacks, they are fine. Brazillian central defenders though, although some of them can be amazing 95% of the time they seem to have this Titus factor that comes from nowhere every so often and fucks it all up for everyone. So I'd stay away from them personally if I was managing a top team. Julio Cesar is an exception to the goalkeeper rule, forgot about him. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
David28 Posted January 24, 2012 Share Posted January 24, 2012 Julio Cesar has been nowhere near as good as 2009/2010 since Mourinho left the club, though. I remember his big, big mistake against Bayern. Just an example, obviously. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Craig-NUFC Posted January 24, 2012 Share Posted January 24, 2012 Enoch Balotelli (his younger brother, yes) having a trial at Sunderland apparently.

TaylorJ_01 Posted January 25, 2012 Share Posted January 25, 2012 Should either go balls out for a striker, centre back or goalkeeper rather than another wide-ish player. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
johnnypd Posted January 25, 2012 Share Posted January 25, 2012 nah, another wide player is one of the clear positions where Spurs could improve. upgrade on Lennon. they can wait until summer for a striker with adebayor there. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest kingdawson Posted January 25, 2012 Share Posted January 25, 2012 Seems a waste of money if you ask me. Surely you need a striker/defender before thinking about someone like Hazard? Well yep we need a striker above him for sure but not too sure about needing a cb ahead of a attacking mid (that can play AMR). Dawson, Kaboul, and Bassong are all fit, King is currently fit, and Gallas is nearing fitness. We definately need a cb but it would come third in the list behind striker and alternative to Lennon.

thomas Posted January 26, 2012 Share Posted January 26, 2012 Bolton have signed Tim Ream from New York Red Bulls. Early Bramble-esque levels of non-concentration in him and prone to the odd howler. yt: Philadelphia Union Red Bulls highlights 4/9/11, 7:40 in. Don't see him making the step up tbh.
