trooky

Maybe, but the end goal is still promotion. We're not blessed with excess transfer funds or room in our PSR limits to just go and sign replacement players and ostracize them like Man Utd. So unfortunately we still need some of this dog shit to achieve our goal. We need to support Cifuentes and Leicester and understand he's playing them out of necessity and not choice.

Ndidi also relegated twice, Winks relegated once and fell out with the last manager after refusing to stop at the training ground, so based on those arguments we're not playing many of the current squad. Its not his fault who he's inherited and all their baggage. Until we sell the unwanted player's who want out and Cifuentes gets his own players in, unfortunately he doesn't have much choice to play some of them. We're not starting a team of 16 years and getting promoted which is the target.

With a new manager everyone has a clean slate, and with a current choice of Ndidi, Winks, Skipp or Soumare in the double pivot he will feature whether we like it or not.

If that was the case we wouldn't have signed the twat.

No

He's 16 just out of the academy, were the results don't matter, and it's all about producing individual talents and skills. He'll learn to develop his end product, the pressing etc in the first team all in good time.

I'm not comparing him to Ronaldo. It's too early to predict Monga's career and if he fulfills his talent. I was highlighting that Ronaldo was criticised for trying to many tricks at the start of his United career without an end product which was the topic of the original post.

Not putting any pressure on him or comparing him to Ronaldo. Just using the reference of Ronaldo when he joined United and the fact he was criticised for trying to many tricks without an end product.

Christ he's 16, remember Ronaldo we he first came to United? His career turned out alright!

Maybe they will, but it wasn't going to happen before the new manager had chance to make his own mind up on them.

If he can't build confidence in a pointless friendly then he's not going to in a lesser league. That miss yesterday sums him up. I've seen more athletic ability in 60 year old men at walking football.

Not sure why he's compared to Vardy, he doesn't even stack up to Ade Akinbiyi.

He'll score more than Daka even from the bench

They also wanted to sack a manager when top of the league 😂, so says it all really.

Yep, I'm the same. Everyone gets a clean slate which is what happens in any business with a new manager.

Yes agree, but I don't believe our signings are totally on the DOF and the manager has had a huge say. We've definitely signed some dross but we've also done well with Fatawu, Mavididi, El Khannous and Okoli will probably be a decent signing. Having said that the transfer policy is a mess and the signings are definitely based on the managers needs and not on any long term strategy of the club IMO. Cooper wanted PL experience and I believe Ayew, BDR, Skipp are all on him. The biggest achillles heel in the club is the DOF role and not having a long term strategy regarding transfers and managers. We seam to have a defined playing style but we're too willing to deviate from this with our managerial appointments.

Apart from they've never won the league, FA Cup or finished 5th. Our board have made mistakes but ultimately they have been trying to deal with the financial hole of Brendan Rodgers failing to deliver champions league football twice. I'd much rather have our recent history than Brentford, even if we spend a prolonged period in the championship. PSR and VAR have ruined football in the Premier league.

We'll see how well this system works this season now Frank has gone and replace with Keith Andrews.

Hoping it's not another 300😂

Sounds like a STD, must have caught it from Dyche ball.

6. Sack 4th choice and hire another complete novice who beat Leicester in the previous 2 games as a caretaker 🤔

According to Google Gemini, the manager with best tactical fit for our current squad is O'Neil, Wilder, Rohl, Hasenhuttl and finally Dyche. 😂 Can't wait to see what Top decides.

All the managers being linked with us should have no problems getting us promoted to the premier league. I never thought I'd say it but Dyche is best equipped to keep us there.

Big Sam or Tony Pulis😭

It's a horrible conversation to have, comparing Ayew and Daka😂
