Tonali, still has alot to prove in the prem

I dont think they are lazy, they all train and for the most part keep themself fit.

Not a manc but it seema like the facilities needs to be improved. Need to have a good environment to foster a elite mentality.

People like Ten Hag with ball knowledge have to be given time and respect. Sure all the players are making more money and have all the bitches they can want.

Ball knowledge a d pedigree have to be at the center of it all.

They give out too many big contracts too fast. Most of the player that fizzle are good players, just not in line with their wages and this puts on pressure.

Martial is decent for 80k/pw. Maybe bever 120 because he had some electric early seasons that may have got him a bump. But 250 k is criminal.

The fans had an unreasonable level of expectation of how they should have compete against citeh and the new eara of football.

I think it drove the board to make those big marquee signings that may not have worked out instead of taking risks on players.

The ship is coming around. It will take some time but they are getting some turnaround in the squad and it will improve in time.

A few more windows with Ten Hag, then try a 3 seasons with De Zerbi or someone whoknows ball.

Looks like 18 PTS is on the Menu.

Lets get some additions innon 1st of January to bost the squad.

A body in CM and CF/Rw

Not sure what will happen with the keepers but Karl Hien cannot be #2.

Is salah the bes RW in the prem? I think so. Mahrez 2nd.

Need that kinda depth in the engine room.

Love thomas , el neny, fabio and Kai but they have not contributed enough and jorginho is a stop gap

Edu is a huge part as well.

Most of the signings have been net positive.

The youth department of the pre-vious regime got us Balogun(30m), Joe Willock (30m) and Emi (20m)

Not to mention saka who save our skin too many times.

Also, eddie is a competent player.

Teta got to bring up one or two of his own.

Kai hater her.

I wanted him from Leverkusen soo bad.

But after flailing around in english football for some years I am hesitant to accept a 65m valuation on massive wages.

Chealski got cole palmer with a profit iirc. Madison and szbob went for cheaper. Heck, even JWP would have made some sense.

I also hate that we sign rejects off Chelshit.

I have and will hold my vitriol untill the end lf the season

10 g+a and holding down a position on the pitch is a reasonable ask.

We let go Joe Willock, a b2b runner who added verticality and finishing in the box because he didnt have the passing chaps to do it at this level.

Im questioning Teta’s comitment to our youth and ability to maximise the talent at his disposal.

No trophies yet , kai won a CL for his former club and the fans were still underwhelmend by his season.

I think top 4 and a deep CL run is what we can get with the squad. Were short on reliable players who can be fit and avaialble.

We need a less injury prone striker. If its a short king Aguero who is prolific great.

But the profile we are missing is a tall, fast playmaker CF like Giroud

The striker market is a bit dry imho. So maybe sirgussey, gorekeys or wilfred boney could be good signings. There not worth more than 40-50m. Ivan Tony for 35m

The center of the park needs an injection of youth and quality. I see elnneny, ESR, viera and jorge as potential out goings.

I like Evertons Onana but the market is rich with options.

We need a kimmich type as well.

Realistic Jaunary backup keepers in case rammers forces his way out

This season is important for him.

He is a good player, good enough to edge into WC territory if he can stay fit.

By the summer, i will draw up a final opinion on him and the only negative is his injury record and he could work on his crossing
