Bob stark

Not really. Bellingham, Kane, rice are wc. Saka is very good. Rashford depend on what version you get can be wc. I barely watched Anderson so no clue.

Is Mudryk still here?

As expected because we have sold cucu or that money goes to Rogers adn we will move more player

Roger real number is not 115 but villa need that number. This is all ffp/psr stuff. We did similar stuff with Kellyman <> Maataer

This deal is related to Rogers deal. We have done similar deal with villa (Kellyman n Maatsen)

Without cl, it probably will be fine. I personally don't take what we do in transfer seriously anymore (sometimes it is hard). I don't really rate Rogers but it looks like he can shoot and more long shot = more fun.

Actually manager matter more in term of improving player but it is not what most fans want it to be. Player improvement take months or years and it is not linear. The key with manager is that the gap between them is not big whereas the gap between player is very big. You give me pep, my expectation for this team doesn't change, you give me prime Messi, I expect us to contend next season. That is why I am happy that we get Alonso because his leverkusen was interesting but I don't expect magic.

Manager impact is usually not that big unless the previous manager is crazy (Amorim), lose the dressing room (Mou to Ole) or there is is a big shift in philosophy (Lamp to TT, it is hard to do this with this squad). I have never been a fan of Maresca but he was fine.

No Europe, as long as Enzo and Caicedo are healthy, we will be fine and James is probably a midfielder now. I am honestly not sure what the team need. I am not entirely sure what Rogers is fixing.

13000 min before 20 is just stupid

Very simple, no cl, healthy Colwill, healthy Palmer.

What is my expectation next season if we don't make any transfer. top 5. What is my expectation next season after Palestra, Roger, Emegha, Barco, Quenda. Top 5.

Imo this is still the best way to win in international tourney. Not so much in club football though, it is hard to do this against man to man.

Very different player

That is my lineup prediction

Roger - Delap-Palmer Joe - Shield - Lavia Tosin

Trafford and we probably will sign Oscar Bob is a couple season to complete the set

We finished 10th lat season. You put a 23 year old Messi on our team, we are straight away a contender next season, all of our offensive problem goes away.

Let's do simple analysis on England game. England scored at 55' England was still trying to press higher but this happen at 56' min. Brilliant tackle by Spence but that is 💀 💀 . Being this open going 1-0 up in semi final after 55' was crazy. So England got into low block. That was Gordon playing a wb/fb because now Argentina pushed their player up which bring Gordon to defend. If your winger had to play fb/wb why not just play wb/fb there. So TT brought it Konsa for Gordon and swirtched to 532. There was another problem called Messi. Do you make sure the ball doesn't get to Messi or just play normal defense. Rice was the lcm and he was following Messi in the middle. The problem now, England was extremely narrow in the middle. Now you see de Paul free on the far side and Spence couldn't close him down because there was somebody on the sideline. De Paul crossed and McCallister had a free header. So 532 didn't work as England was overloaded on the right side. So England played 541. England no longer overloaded on the right hand side. Messi go the ball and he move left and a simple game on the right and switch from right to left and Messi made Fabregasesque pass and Argentina almost scored. Honestly, it is hard to say what TT need to do. Some say TT need to bring Rashford/Watkins. Not sure those two are known to be disciplined defensively and you have to be in this case. Messi is dropping as dm and keep making Fabregasesque pass and it will be your job to mark him.

Among our cb, Chalobah played the most min in pl for us last season yet he is the one that get sold. This is as expected though because we have to sell. I am glad that I don't read nonsense that we have to sell because of tactic, player profile, quality. Same with Santos, look at the book value, look at how much you think you can get for him in the market. That is the reason.

Both time messi created the goals, he had two players on him.

It got nothing to do with bulk up. He was not ready for pl. He got hammy issue in training, he got hammy issue the moment he was given back to back games. All of these are normal stuff.

This is a complicated one. Once you lose control of the game and your player decided to defend, it is hard to revert it. So most manager try to help the team either bringing a tall dm (usually the best way, England on paper had 3 dm already but james n Rice were dead) basically mainoo or bring cb.
