    As a club to turn around our fortunes for next season?

    Option 1- Buy Buy Buy
    One of: Banega, Kaka, Goetze, Hamsik
    Cavani
    Hazard
    A stop gap right back
    Why didn't we shell out for Mata while we had the chance? Put Mata in Gervinho's place today...mmmm yeah looks a bit better. We have around £100m to use if we really wanted to. We have more than that sitting in the accounts.

    Option 2- Staff
    I'm not talking the manager yet.
    We could:
    Bring in a defensive coach. Either Adams, Bould, Dixon, Keown or Winterburn
    Bring in a new assistant manager. Stojkovic or Bergkamp
    Bring back David Dein

    Option 3- The Manager
    Perhaps the most painful to talk about.
    Possible replacements:
    Ancelotti
    Stojkovic
    Hiddink
    Mourinho (I think he's sick of Real Madrid)
    Moyes

    Option 4- New Approach To Tactics And Style
    Maybe play a 4-4-2, try different players in different positions. Put Arshavin behind RVP I don't know. Just try something.

    Option 5- Sit Tight And Hope For The Best
    The most likely option.


    We need to do something. One of those options (except number 5) or all of them. Something needs to change.

  2. My friend almost nothing will be done because the board are useless. Mr Gazidis prefers to concentrate on the financial side of the club and seemingly quite oblivious to the fact that the on pitch performance will have a very telling effect on the financial aspect of the club. Our majority shareholder seems all too taken in by our long-standing manager who as we all know is unable and resistant to change and when he finally does do it, it will probably come at the last minute because of his character and that he takes an eternity to make a decision. It is time for changes but I don't know who will do it.

    I did briefly mention that possibility. Personally I would like 1,2 and 4. Failing that: 1, 2, 3 and 4.

  6. I'll take 1, 2 and 3 and leave Option 4 to the new manager.

    If the money is there then buy and buy so more.

    Adopt a seige mentality, play each game with a predetermined idea of the result we want to achieve bearing in mind we cannot win against everyone. Scrap the free flowing football and play simply for a result. Get a goal and simply defend.:D

    We have to buy but the problem is our squad is already quite big and thus so is our wage bill.


    Cahill
    Goetze
    M'Villa
    Benzema

  10. But that's just it my friend. Our guys don't know how to defend.....

  11. Well Mr Bear, I believe we have something like £100-120m in the TPA fund. If these dummies who run the club, our manager included could see that victories brings in more cash and makes the commercial side more marketable, then we would have a better business model but instead, they run it like a cottage industry. Small minds with limited outlook. They don't even know how to take a leaf out of SAF's book.

    He is finally starting to show his talent at Madrid so i doubt they will sell him. But if we really want the other 3 then we could get them.

    I would start young chamberlain, he's only played 2 games for us (i believe), and he already looks better than Walcott.
