If you want to play possession football then you must play your most technical midfielders. 

 

If Pep Guardiola was our manager Braybrooke and Page would be the first two names on the team sheet. Martin is just a clueless and poor imitation.

You can understand why Choudhury was brought on at 2-0 down with 10 men ahead of Page surely? For his limitations Hamza will actually at least try and put his foot in. 

I do, and tbh I don’t hate Choudhury as an option, thought he was alright on the weekend. My post was more two separate points, I think he sees Choudhury as the primary back up for Braybrooke and I also think it’d be insane to sell Page

He did also have a monster in Rodri, who could also play, he still liked steel in his side.

 

Unfortunately some who is physical and technical isn’t in our price range.

I've made up that RM wants to sell as Page has a crush on his wife. I mean, he is 18 lol


 

 

2 players remaining at the club by the end of the window..

Page made as many tackles in 18 minutes against Burton as Cullen did in both games.

 

If Martin wants steel then you don't play Cullen who floats round the pitch like a fairy.

More tackles than Skipp managed against both Notts County and Burton lmao

I'd like Page and Braybrooke to play with a physical CM, which we don't have.

 

Someone can do the dirty work.

 

A bit like Maddison and Tieleman benefited from with Ndidi.

I really hope Martin doesn’t do that thing you sometimes see when a new manager signs a player he’s previously worked with, then stubbornly continues to pick that player no matter what even when there are clearly better alternatives in the squad. Please do that with Cullen, Russell.

No a high bar.

 

Chuck Skipp in the bin, Braybrooke at 6 and Page at 8.

 

Get CBs who have physicality and can play.

I’d rather play Choudhury (he’s clearly staying) as the anchor than whatever he has been doing in previous games, with Braybrooke and Alves in front of him.

To be fair, we've only seen cullen play a couple of games, in a squad still learning to gel - he might actually turn out to be a decent player.

He looks like he's grown and filled out since last year doesn't he?

 

You never know how youngsters are going to develop physically but he's starting to look like he's got the stature of a proper midfield general.

So not particularly active then?

 

 

Arsenal agreeing a fee with us means that United will sign him? The stupidity of what gets put out these days.

I just can't see how we keep him, very frustrating. Go get Charlie Webster to cushion the blow.

Everyone has a price.

 

Can't see how we can turn down 15m odd.

 

Hurts more than Monga for me.

 

Webster would be a great signing.

Lots of people said £30mil was a good deal for Dewsbury Hall at the time. Now he's a top PL player. With the way Page is developing he could be an important player for getting promoted to the PL in 2-3 years time, that's worth more than £15mil.

100%

 

Doesn't mean I want us to take it, but I'd be surprised if the club would turn it down.

Much like the Monga deal not necessarily the initial fee we get correct but having sell on fees etc etc must be right for us in the deal
