500bhp Posted July 30, 2025 Share Posted July 30, 2025 We've got acknowledge and maybe accept that we are not considered a big enough club to attract the types of players we've been aiming for this window. We are in the CL and won a trophy but the pull is not strong enough. We had a good run post takeover when we could sell the potential of the project to Bruno, Botman, Isak, Tonali and the rest, but a few years in and it's apparent to players and agents that we are not the next PSG or Man City. We'd not be able to sign those types of players today, as is being proven on a weekly basis. Root cause is a mixture of PSR and the lethargic way in which PIF run the club. Looking from the outside there is no sense of urgency or football knowledge or a desire to push the boundaries of PSR or challenge the status quo. Its all too passive. Nobody in PIF seems to love this project/investment or want to drive it forward. That's how it feels to me anyway at this point in the ownership.

Robbo2 Posted July 30, 2025 Share Posted July 30, 2025 Maybe we're going for a strikerless system? Just play all 4 wingers and have them swarm all over the place, hopefully not bumping into one another. There's definitely goals in that Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

We've mostly gone for up and coming players who aren't quite there yet. It's just been our bad luck that most of the cartel clubs are struggling with their own strikers and are in the same market at the same time. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

vexred Posted July 30, 2025 Share Posted July 30, 2025 Muniz is really good. If Isak leaves and we end up with Muniz, Wissa, 2 CM and an elite rcb, I'd be ok with it. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Emotic Posted July 30, 2025 Share Posted July 30, 2025 Which is why Amanda and Merhdad stepping back was the beginning of the slide, IMHO. They had the business acumen, plus a real palpable enthusiasm for the club. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Menace Posted July 30, 2025 Share Posted July 30, 2025 For context Muniz couldn't get games ahead of a 34 year old Raoul Jimenez. "Very good" Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

The new people employed in executive roles should have the acumen and the enthusiasm. We have just made mistakes in key positions which has left this summer a mess.

This summer was bad but we are actively going backwards from what we set out to do. Get the feeling some would just be happy with any shiny new signing you must be new here they've been shaking their tail for DCL for over a year and very recently argued that that Howe would transform Nicolas Jackson no basura exists that wouldn't be rationalised on here Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

kenlau88210 Posted July 30, 2025 Share Posted July 30, 2025 Last season Muniz scored a goal in every 119 mins in the PL. That's bloody good. He'll be a great 2nd choice for us. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
