Three years later and I'm still saying get me Neto. But instead I gotta make do with a Ukrainian sprinter learning how to play football.

Injury prone duo. How long before they get injured and we have to go back to Evans?

Combined 51M is a good deal though. :yeshrug: Everton wanted 70+ for Branthwaite. :scust:

What was the point of signing Ohno when you have Vermin.

And they ain't typos either. :mjgrin:
Barca is midfield and Vybz FC

Should've spent that Olmo money on a DM, which will bite us in the middle of the season.

Olmo is class tho, especially with the way the squad loves to get injured. Pedri can't play a full season, Gavi's coming back from an ACL, Frenkie has been cold and Gundo's dip can happen any minute.

Plus we have no threats from the Left unless we play Raphinha there.

I expect at times Olmo to play as False 9 when Lewandowski is rested. Also he leads the press better. l see Flick playing a half 433/4213 set up.

Balde and who is the back up LB? The LW will probably be the Left Inside forward role so that will be Olmo main role.

Regarding the DM. If you dont sign one I have a sneaky suspicion that Eric and Christensen will be the DMs for the season. As they chave the ability to drop back and make the 3atb.

Back up LB, I think we're trying to resign cancelo on loan again, but it's probably going to be some B team players because we don't have the bread to sign anyone serious. We're lucky Cancelo is in the situation he's in.

Eric had a decent tournament, even though it was the Olympics, my only issue with Chris. is that he leaves too much open space playing as a Lone DM, but I don't wrong him for that since that's not his regular position.

Said it before and I'll say it again. Ten Hag deserves jail time for benching Amad for the majority of the second half of the season.

Or maybe just maybe instead of rushing him back after a serious knee injury. You build his minutes up over time which is what happened. As we know it's common for players whove just come back from knee injuries end up doing the same knee again or the other one.

Also have to factor in how Ten Hairs like to discipline players so him getting the red card after the winning in the Cup vs Liverpool. He was most likely dropped because of that after the suspension was over.
