Some proper scabby undeserved/massively lucky single goal wins. I thought you boys were dead and buried after a handful of games but unless you get points deducted you might be in for a period of things stabilising for the first time in years Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
El Prontonise Posted October 30, 2023 Share Posted October 30, 2023 Said it at the time when they signed Casemiro he was over the hill and had paid too much. Real always sell at the correct time. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Last season he stuck with the same starting 11 whenever he could to the point where he actually had a little criticism for not resting players. That lineup yesterday was just... wow. How much £‘s will he trouser if he gets the bullet ? Bank the Glazier lowey, spend a few months relaxing by a pool somewhere sunny with factor 50 slathered all over his baldy bonce, walk into a job he’s capable of in Holland or France Edited October 30, 2023 by bobbydazzla Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

It’s only going one way from here and he’ll get continually worse overall despite having occasional quality games Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

World class or were world class players should be able to adapt surely? They struggled with playing out from the back under a significant press at Madrid. Varane particularly. Madrid would drop Kroos at DM to build from deep frequently. Also RM are the most pragmatic elite team. They've been replaced at RM with technically superior players.

Just we have lascelles who was basically not great under a press and he seems to of improved with coaching. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Scoreboard82 Posted October 30, 2023 Share Posted October 30, 2023 Big Scottish Cup 2nd round tie currently on BBC Scotland for anyone who's really desperate. Musselburgh v Clyde (sky 187). Don't all desert the forum at once mind. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted October 30, 2023 Share Posted October 30, 2023 5 hours ago, Froggy said: And these comments really, really don't help. It's why he was hired in the first place and I would hope a large reason as to why we've spent big money to bring in Martinez, Antony and Onana. He's doing himself zero favours at the minute with these statements. Evans over Varane for "tactical" reasons is the worst one yet. Utter nonsense. Ajax have a generational ingrained style of play from top to bottom and will fire coaches who stray from it at youth level even if they win games.

Agreed, it’s not just about grinding out wins with the onus on physicality and being solid defensively. Lots of quality younger players there these days Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I imagine Championship can probably offer better wages than a lot of top division clubs in Europe such as the non elite teams in Eredivisie, Belgian, Eastern Europe and Scandi leagues and the league isn't just filled with English plodders and managers any more I love it Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
