Ginola Posted December 30, 2024 Share Posted December 30, 2024 There's no way they're going down, like. They do have a big problem they've overpaid for many players that aren't good enough or are at the wrong end of their career over the last few years and that won't make it easy to correct their squad. That being said, fuck them and I hope they continue on that path Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Said at the start of the game that De Ligt and Mazraoui on the same side seemed like a disaster waiting to happen.Ā Ā I do rate Amorim (quite a bit of shite being talked about his success at Sporting and Braga now), but I do think he's going have to be a bit more pragmatic and make some changes to your system until he can get the players he wants.

Boey_Jarton Posted December 30, 2024 Share Posted December 30, 2024 Hojlund's hold up play, as a 21 year old, was impressive. Mainoo was ok. Amad looked lively. Beyond that, dreadful.Ā Ā Highly unlikely they will get dragged in to relegation though, there are some stinking teams down there.Ā Ā Ā Ā Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

midds Posted December 30, 2024 Share Posted December 30, 2024 These are fucked. Amorim send like a decent bloke tbh and a small part of me wants him to succeed. That said I think the squad he's inherited is completely unsuited to what he's trying to get them to do. He's probably a good manager, there's probably a lot of talent in the squad but the connecting simply isn't there. It'll cost a billion+ to sort it out or change the manager yet again Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jonas Posted December 30, 2024 Share Posted December 30, 2024 Has any manager been a hit after starting even more unimpressively than what his predecessor was sacked for? I know Ferguson was on the brink there but that was after he spent all that money, I think they initially did improve. Just seems odd to see absolutely no positive signs at this point. The team as a whole, defence, attack and no revitalised individuals. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
AyeDubbleYoo Posted December 30, 2024 Share Posted December 30, 2024 It's a balance for sure, I always think about Steve McClaren who had decent tactics but didn't have the balls to stick to them when we kept losing. And then he failed anyway.Ā Ā Who knows but he has to make them harder to play against. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
