Long Eaton Fox Posted 17 August 2023 Share Posted 17 August 2023 Are we building a man city mk2. The players we are linked with or have signed are mini man city players. Nimble, good on the ball, good movement etc. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Those big teams have players who have a type of swagger and arrogance (without actually being arrogant) about them, we are moving with the times and have someone in the know who can lead us. I think for some supporters of a certain age, there will still be a wish to go back to a less sophisticated style of play. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bring him in as well Akgun, Rak-Sakyi and THB then I’ll say the squad is complete prior to any potential outgoings. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pliskin Posted 18 August 2023 Share Posted 18 August 2023 Where would he fit? That’s my question…. Casadei is clearly going to be one of the high 8’s…… KDH isn’t getting dropped and nor is Winks……. He isn’t a winger as he’s far too slow….. so you’d wonder where he would fit? If we’re looking at two wingers as well? Im not convinced we’re in for this at all. I think it’s more likely his agent pushing for him to move and we’ve been linked previously. It just doesn’t make much sense, when it seems Praet is staying too.

The are lots of weeks with games Saturday, Wednesday, Saturday, so being able to freshen things up is going to be important. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

FoxinNotts Posted 18 August 2023 Share Posted 18 August 2023 What is it with all this 'back up' talk. The season in the championship is long and tough. We will get a bucket full of injuries. It's pretty obvious everyone left in the squad, come the shutting of the transfer window is going to get plenty of game time. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I dont understand how anything he said implied that? He was suggesting we get a Right Winger because we don't currently have one at all and I'm guessing he wants to see Vestergaard replaced in the starting line up. He's saying he'd rather we do those things than bring in Chair to be cover? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

FoxFossil Posted 18 August 2023 Share Posted 18 August 2023 I think the notion of 'back up' players is incorrect with Enzo. Mancitylite means a squad of players that we can pick a rotating team from, and switch to suit different opponents. They should all understand their position in 'the system' and they will all play. Development squad should all be coached the same - they are the back up in case of injury, and ready to step up. Isn't this what Seagrave was supposed to be about? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nah the club needs to go OTT if it happens Have Enzo walking around DFS at Fosse Park looking at and trying chairs and saying these aren’t good enough, then we can see just Enzo looking at something and saying I like this chair DFS van driving up to the training ground, stops at the security gate saying we have your new chair delivery and it drives in Switches to Enzo walking through the training ground and someone saying his new chair is in his office Camera behind Enzo as he opens his office door, initially the camera is blurry but it goes in over his shoulder and clears up to show Ilias Chair is stood there looking out the window with his back to camera so we see his name on his shirt and then Enzo says “yes this is the chair I wanted!” Ilias Chair turns around and says “no no, it is pronounced (insert however it is pronounced)” #Chair2027 Club need to give me the job ffs Edited 18 August 2023 by moore_94 12 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
