    I just don’t see what Ancelotti is building there.

    Pickford
    Coleman
    Keane
    Holgate?
    Digne
    Allan
    Gomes
    Doucoure
    Walcott/DC-L
    Richarlison
    James

    It just doesn’t look like a group of tight knit lads, not knocking the quality of the signings they’re good levels but not sure I’m seeing what CA is seeing.

    this won’t be a one window squad build as they tried under Koeman and Walsh.

    could be a 343.

    433

    451 or the old Xmas tree. Carlo hasn’t just done a football manager and picked names, he has picked players for roles. But identified MF as a weakness and someone with a bit of guile to unlock a back line In Rodriguez.

    will take 3-4 games to see them settle in. If it’s gone tits up, I will see you all in May....probably because of a ban<cheers>

    Walsh was our first DoF, we took him from Leicester after they won the league.

    He was ****ing clueless.

    what a mistake from Moshiri. Add in a sprinkle of Koeman and his holiday and it’s no surprise we haven’t moved forward! Until now!

    Doucoure announced just noticed when seeing this.

    I wasn't overly arsed, but then I realised I've been watching Paul dummett spazzing around at lb for a decade

    I can see why he thought both were a good shout tbf, but Walsh’s only good call was Gueye and Koeman was seemingly more bothered about his golf handicap than doing the job he was being paid £M’s for. Fat headed ****.

    I’m starting to think that this deal has been on the cards for a while. Buildings in Bogotá lit up blue with his number, this in Miami.

    this is a master stroke from the board.

    if he does this much good on the pitch, I will have to renew again next season!

    a ****ing cry, was a question. Someone didn’t like the discussion so closed it down. I just asked a mod who he was.

    that’s what I asked. A scout promoted to DoF based on a few good buys when at Leicester.
    Moshiri fell for it, he may was well have asked Moyes to find a Cahill/Coleman/Baines. A ****ing chancer.

    Anger is always the 1st emotion when one's pride has taken a vigorous pounding.

    £33m is plenty for a player who’s unproven at the top level, but I think he’s the bollocks tbh. Gutted Villa have got him ffs.

    The Geordies would have been better served taking him and leaving Wilson to the brummies. @The emerald guard

    Thought they were in for King, spring a surprise here. Think he has the bollocks and skills to step up. Fed by Grealish, should get a fair few.
