Sevilla do what they do because they are in La Liga, and there are only two teams in contention in that league. The Premier League different. Anything can happen.
We are absolutely NOT going to aim for a Sevilla model. That means becoming surrender monkeys, rolling over and dying as a club...
No, I didn't miss that. It's just irrelevant to this situation.
Dragusin is clearly very, very ambitious and isn't going to want to play second fiddle filling in for a few games a season.
Is that something you missed?
Lol.
Can't see Dragusin, or any player, displacing VDV. It doesn't matter how well he plays, unless there's a massive dropoff in form VDV will come back into the team. So long term, I'm guessing Dragusin doesn't get a look in and leaves. Sorry! I like him, he looks an extremely good signing, but he's...
I don't understand people wanting Soloman sold. I thought he looked good. My view aside, he hasn't had a chance yet and it seems like he's being poo-pooed without us having seen enough of him to make that that decision. Manor will be useful off the bench, for sure. Whether he'll accept being 7th...
It's like having Zeus at centre back. The guy is imperious.
There are three CBs who stand out in this league: Van Dijk, Saliba, and Micky. Van Dijk is on the wane, Saliba like to film kids tossing off, and Micky plays for us.
A lot of sense in this. Like many, I have my reservations about Johnson, but they're not huge and I do think he's a useful player right now. He's also the latest in a long line of players who've suffered from what you describe, perhaps the best example being Sissoko who started badly but became...
Lies, damned lies, and statistics. I'm not digging out Hojbjerg because he's more progressive than he's given credit for, but there is absolutely no way he is more progressive than those three. Clearly OPTA's definition of what is a "progressive pass" is is somewhat looser than what most fans...
We've won a hell of a lot of games over the last 16 years. If 3 or 4 more of them had gone in our favour the narrative would be entirely different. Fine margins. That's why I can't get angry about Levy's reign. I can be disappointed, I wish we'd won mpre, but I can't call for an ousting on the...
You can't run a football club for 20+ years and not make mistakes, that is something I think a lot of people fail to get. OF COURSE he's made mistakes, lots of them, but overall he's been hugely positive for the club. No one is suggesting he's been perfect.
We go to football matches to see our team win. And they have. I bet in terms of games won, the Levy years have been the most successful in our history - despite the lack of trophies.
This time it is different.
Under Poch and Redknapp we did well, but we didn't have a powerhouse stadium built to print money behind them. Now we have. Levy has created the training ground, world-class stadium and has now been able to bring the best people in behind the scenes to manage how the...
Anyway...
Joe Lewis isn't our owner.
This case has nothing to do with us and doesn't impact us in any way.
Our club is run in a sustainable and responsible way.
We'll never be as morally repugnant as Chelsea, City, Newcastle etc.
And we're just not as reliant on our owners in the same way.
So...
