He isnt the only problem but he is a small part of our biggest problem which is that we have been signing players who arent good enough for the last 5 years. We need a rebuild of our transfer department, worst part of the club currently.

Ayew still on , thank **** we wont have this preferential treatment for him and Cordova Reid under Ruud

Doesnt matter if he has a buyer or not. He needs to be shipped out on loan or sent to the reserves. We cant have his catastrophic defending impact the club any further than it already has.

Because Skipp is also not good enough. El Khannouss should be starting though.

We need a new DM who can cover the defence and who is comfortable on the ball. Neither Soumare nor Ndidi can offer both (not Skipp either).

Here are 3 young ball playing centrebacks at midtable Belgian clubs who are better than our centrebacks: Omar Fayed - 21 years old. Plays for Beerschot on loan from Fenerbahçe. Starred for Egypt at the Olympics. Rein Van Helden - 22 years old. Plays for STVV. Jose Marsa - 22 years old. Plays for Mechelen. Excellent on the ball but struggled at Sporting so might not be good enough defensively.

El Khannouss will be our best player under Van Nistelrooy.

Why is El Khanouss not starting? He's far to good to be sat on the bench behind this start XI.

Alexandro Bernabei from Celtic on loan at Internacional looks like a good option. Seemingly fallen out of favour with Rodgers and has been arguably the best left back in the Brazilian league. His loan ends in December, for £8mil I think he could be a steal for us. Potential Argentinian National team player.

For saying a player with 85 PL goals is a good player? I wasnt saying that we had a chance of signing him, just that if we did sign him he would be good for us.

Rashford is bad for a £350,000 Manchester United star player, for our level if we could get him on decent wages he would be a good signing. Similar type of player to Harvey Barnes and he was good for us.

To be fair to him, us being outside the relegation zone when he left is about as good as it was ever going to go down between him and us. Considering our performances he hasnt left us in too bad of a spot (arguably his transfers are what have hurt us most).

Ugo Raghouber from Lille on loan at USL Dunkerque is the kind of player Steve Walsh would sign as an unknown from Ligue 2 for £1m that would go on to be one of our best players.

Need a new DM, new fullbacks, new centrebacks and maybe a new winger.

Rodgers has the FA cup but personally I think him getting relegated despite inheriting one of the best squads in the league at the time will win out as his main legacy here. The longer we go without being able to establish ourselves as a PL team, the more people will realise what was squandered by Rodgers.

We had our best chance to establish ourselves as PL regulars after the title win, we wont get that chance back. I think Rodgers will slip further and further down this list the more time we spend in the championship over the next decade or so, there's not many managers around who have done as much damage to a club as he has.

Winks over Drinkwater is a ridiculous opinion. Regardless of what happened at Chelsea, Drinkwater won a league title for us, including a great performance at the Etihad where he bullied David Silva of all players.

Somehow we quite comfortably perform worse off the pitch as a club than on the pitch. In the past year alone we've somehow managed to make ourselves enemy Nr 1 for the PL and EFL in respect to looking to give us a point deductions and transfer embargo. Now our shirt sponsor has gone bust. One day the club's poor leadership is going to catch up to the club, like it did in 2023 after years of mismanagement, except we're going to fall even further next time with our legal loopholes no longer working.

He's a player that only excels in possession. Considering we are towards the bottom of the league it wouldn't be that big of an issue if we lost him and used a midfielder that protects the back line more.

Sounds a bit like Iheanacho at Man City

He was arguably our best player last season. He's a much better player than Skipp at least, who we shelled out 2/3 of his transfer fee for.

People talk like Alves's ACL has ruined him. When was the last time we produced a player who could control the ball like this

Rutter is doing alright at Brighton who are 8th. I feel it's harsh to say Dewsbury Hall is not a top half PL player, a team like Brighton is probably around his level.

Yes he did miss loads of sitters last year but he also scored 7 and assisted 5 in 1000 minutes. He's nowhere near as bad as he is made out to be on here.

Yes he did but I am not bothered about golden boots personally. Lineker showed can can step up against good opposition like 1986 Argentina and 1990 Germany whilst Kane hasnt done that for England yet, even if those teams did knock England out.
