As an observation...(and this is very much for debate), one could argue it's yet another American owner coming in and trying to make 'football' decisions when they have such limited knowledge about the game and it's culture.

Was impressed by their recruitment in the summer. I didn't realise a few of their main money signings this summer haven't kicked a ball for them yet. Scott & Adams for example. Still going off the highlights last night they looked god awful against Everton. Was licking my lips looking forward to our game against them.

That’s incredibly harsh but they must feel they needed to move for Rooney if he was available. Would be funny if they plummeted like. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

GeordieDazzler Posted October 9, 2023 Share Posted October 9, 2023 I think wanting to play progressive football in relegation battle can be a bit of disaster - better teams will play though you and relegation rivals will low block you. It can be done but you need some outstanding quality from somewhere. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yorkie Posted October 9, 2023 Share Posted October 9, 2023 Very curious to see how Rooney gets on if he comes back to England; got a lot of time for him these days and he was unlucky at Derby. No idea what (to an outsider) his poor performance at DC says about him, like. If he does areet I can see him in the England dugout one day. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Can only have Brewcy lined up for a triumphant return as he guides them from promotion favourites with great team harmony to relegation candidates in record time, with secret moles around every corner waiting to sabotage him as he tells the media “what do you expect, we’re Birmingham City” Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not to sound all Brexity but too young, too little English football experience. Unfortunately (with all due respect to them) the smaller clubs can’t really afford anything resembling a quality English player nowadays. We get lambasted for “overpaying” for British players but it’s been a cornerstone of our success. I do hope we mix it up more with players from the French league though. Seem to always find success when they come to PL. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
