I'm telling you.

Preseason starts in 5 weeks and we haven't had significant progress in landing important transfers.

DDG and Eriksen shouldn't be a starter next season. What are we doing to replace them? Na so so rumor until season start and we'll be running helter-skelter.

The Glazers need to go ASAP. The evil they've done is enough.
Very frustrating something

We'll need to build the squad around him for him to score loads of goals. Don't really like players like that.

It's okay to have them but they're not a priority.

Exactly my thought. He's not the kind of transfer that should excite anybody. Maybe he is a nice to have because while he may offer something from the bench, he won't be able to hold down a first team position

Aside the unnecessary off-field drama he brings, we don't want another "resident doctor" that would come here for extended housemanship...

Someone that cannot keep fit in a Farmers league, na im we go invite come physical EPL?

P.S - he is currently injured!!

"Neymar has been out for approximately 731 days during his time at PSG, i.e. two full years, taking into account the time he has been out for this latest injury. The Brazilian arrived in the discipline of the Parisian side in the 2017/18 season, so the 10 has missed every other season in which he has played for PSG.

From a competitive standpoint, Neymar has missed a total of 104 games in a PSG shirt. The Brazilian has played 173 matches across all competitions, meaning the Brazil captain has been injured in approximately 37.5 percent of the matches in which he has been available for the Parisian club.

DDG’s contrat runs out at the end of this month and it’s increasingly looking like he might leave this summer- according to rumors.

Who would you like to replace him- David Reya, Emi Martinez, or who else?

I agree.

Our pressing needs are players who are ready to contribute majorly to our play, not squad options.

I haven’t seen him much so it’s hard to give an opinion.

From the little I’ve seen, he’s still a good shot stopper. Hes also dominant in the air- he commands his area and comes out to claim crosses, which de Gea doesn’t do.

He’s better than De Gea distribution wise but it’s not as if he’s exceptional in that area. Madrid’s ball playing CBs and midfielders cover up that aspect of his game.

Good - we are getting somewhere...

Matter of fact is that his distribution isn't better than DDGs - that's the bitter truth.

Courtois has been undisputedly one of the top 2 goalkeepers in the world for the last 15 months thereabout yet I have struggled to find where he is being castigated for his "ball-playing inadequacies"....

If we are to get a new goalie, the points you highlighted below should be top priority, not this "ball-playing" mantra that's being unnecessarily overplayed..

Na Neuer I even blame for all these rubbish angry

No.

Courtois' distribution isn't world class but it's definitely better than DDG's.

How many times has he been caught napping? Or failed to pick his man once the latter is outside the 18 yard box?

"I'm not bad with my feet," he said as many have suggested about him. "Maybe I'm not amongst the best but I'm not bad either. I dare to play with my feet and the last ball in which Kalinic put pressure on, I gave it to Varane with my right (he is left-footed). Many keepers would have cleared that ball. Sometimes, I give a bad pass but I know that more goalkeeper, who they say are phenomenal with their feet, commit more errors than me."

Bruno is more of an opportunistic deep-lying 2nd striker/forward than a tactically gifted AM...

Orchestrating play, dropping in between the lines, drawing fouls in dangerous areas, keeping possession till that critical moment to deliver that killer pass etc, aren't his strengths...

We need someone who can retain possession boss. He must go

I don't think anybody said a midfielder is not important in a possession-based team, rather that with the way teams press now the GK is the single most important player in a possession-based team. If your GK doesn't excel in both short and long passes you will keep losing the ball via long kicks from the keeper, which is what we are experiencing.

I'll like to see how a new keeper plays with this current players.

Why? This is not a science experiment and the team is not a petri dish. If a new keeper comes in it won't be with these current players because we will improve other aspects of the team as well.
The club won't buy just a GK and neglect all the other aspects of the team just in order to convince a single fan in Africa called odizeey that DDG is a problem in terms of passing out from the back. grin

For the 10,000th time, getting a better ball-playing GK is not a panacea to all our problems playing possession football, but it is a major step in the right direction.

I know it, you know it, everyone knows it that there's no way ETH or Man UTD will sell Bruno. He's top 2 if not our most important player and 90% of all clubs will take him in their team in an instant!

We all saw how well the players retained possession when he didn't play away at Sevilla.

Glaringly Bruno's not perfect and needs to improve in some areas, but he's not in any way or form the problem of this team.
