Danh1 Posted October 28, 2023 Share Posted October 28, 2023 Maupay is utterly shite mind. Was comforting when they brought him on against us the other week. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Extremely rare to see a keeper who can sprint. Sanchez like the anti-Chris Kirkland there. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

KaKa Posted October 28, 2023 Share Posted October 28, 2023 6 minutes ago, The College Dropout said: Even that would be a lot of evolution for them. All of their semi successful managers have been super ‘pragmatic’ and a bit old school in approach. Holloway, Pulis, Pardew, Vieira, Hodgson. Potter’s style of play would be very different for the club and its fans to handle if it isn’t successful from the jump. They can be low scoring without the aimless passing in the back line. Part of the problem for me is how pragmatic they are for the quality of players they have. They don't even really setup to counter teams properly. Even someone like O'Neill would have been a good pickup after Bournemouth let him go. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Menace Posted October 28, 2023 Share Posted October 28, 2023 The good news is that we'll be able to pick some of these players up for a snip when they eventually have a firesale. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lush Vlad Posted October 28, 2023 Share Posted October 28, 2023 Chelsea losing never gets boring. I like Poch and all. But I can’t stand them. Had an irrational dislike for all things Chelsea for a long while. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mattoon Posted October 28, 2023 Share Posted October 28, 2023 (edited) Bayern just had a player sent off in the 4th minute, what do you have to do to get sent off in 4 minutes?? Edit: Also, Chelsea Edited October 28, 2023 by Mattoon Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I skim read some piece the other day about when Abramovich first came in. Those transfers adjusted for inflation and today’s market are eye watering. They’ve been spending this kind of dough pretty much every summer since he took over. Now it’s even worse and it’s seemingly at random. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Only started playing regularly 2nd half of last season at Villarreal, and was more of a winger originally, before getting some games upfront later on. Only just turned 22 this last summer too.

Lush Vlad Posted October 28, 2023 Share Posted October 28, 2023 (edited) Thought the same. Maupay is terrible and looked like he was running with a parachute/caravan connected to him, trailing along behind him. Proper running through treacle.

The Bonk Posted October 28, 2023 Share Posted October 28, 2023 28 minutes ago, The College Dropout said: That’s a bit of a contradiction. The identity of the club is based on the catchment area (that is fairly unique in comparison to the whole of England) and their youth products. Their identity is so strong that players that aren’t even from the youth ranks or the catchment area like Eze or Olise are considered typical Palace players. And they field more players from the wider area than any PL club. Not to mention a lot of the football management people of the club are supporters, played for the club or from the area. Their limiting factor is that they are probably too London-centric and insular. Southgate will be their next manager. It will be boring to watch. They will have their usual mix of exciting young talent from London and experienced PL players. It will be more boring than it should be. But to say Crystal Palace lack identity or are highly mismanaged - is just not true. You couldn’t name 20 better run clubs in England. Great points and you’ve changed my opinion on Palace. They pull in those players due to the appeal of living in the greater London area as a young, wealthy athlete. Good for them, keeps the club operating efficiently, but where is the growth? Suppose it’s better to be efficient and profitable than in a predicament like Everton find themselves in. Think we have different interpretations of identity or maybe the on/off field identity’s. For me, culture drives identity and they're seemingly more bothered by our ownership than being anything other than a mid table PL club. That’s my personal bias towards them and similar clubs. We get branded “deluded Geordies” because we have heightened expectations of the club due to previous successes. I know that bothers some of our fanbase, but I would rather we have that label than be seen as accepting of mediocrity. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
