Transfer Rumours Summer window thread

There's lots of positions available dude......you can be the human cannon ball init egg chaser

 

I personally don't care if Bruce stays or goes... He'll only be replaced with Ian dowie or Mark Hughes

 

I didn't see it fella.....last thing I need tgese days is an hour and a half of watching cheating overpaid egos running around the pitch

 

Why would Ian Dowie join you when you wont even back the manager with a loan deal ?

 

Scotland improved my mood also last night.

 

Tbh they did spent 25 million on willock, so while they didn't improve the squad on last season it's not like we actually owned the player.

Over 15 years Ashley has been as tight as a nuns knickers but Bruce in 2 years has had 125 million with not 1st team player sales.

I think Ian dowie might be persuaded if they pay over the odds... Oh wait.

 

It’s as if he thought we needed confirmation of his mental deformity.

 

Yet you choose to spend your entire life mincing around a football forum

 

Johan Cruyff says hello

 

****ing 'ell thats a feat, seeing as he's been dead 5 years!

 

Cruyff, like Maradona and Pele, is immortal.

 

what’s his goals ratio tho’?

 

Dunno, they didn’t have stats in the 1970s

 

Cruyffs stats were a bit better, Maradona only really kicked ass in **** leagues, for Boca Juniors or some ****, his strike rate in Italy was so-so, though he wasn't an out and out forward, more like a number 10

 

Behave. He won Napoli the title practically single handed. Three times. And in the days when Italian defenders kicked lumps out of forwards with impunity.
He won Argentina a World Cup, more than Messi ever managed.

He wasn't a striker, correct. More of an attacking playmaker.

 

I wouldnt know about that, before my time. I was like 18 months old when he moved to Italy
His goal rate for Napoli was 81 goals in 188 games, which is decent, but not amazing. Not sure how many assists he got though, as a forward playmaker i'd have thought he would assist just as many as he scored, but I cant find any assist stats

 

Rubbish then, he will be judged on goals per game only. Not his silky skills

 

tbf 1 in 2 was decent back then. It's only in the later years (i.e. last 20 years) that we're seeing the ridiculous numbers. Really began with Messi and Ronaldo

 

... well apart from two out of the three being dead

 

Maradona is still the best footballer I have ever had the pleasure to watch ... Best and Cryuff both right up there ... Messi is very good and Ronaldo is an exceptional athlete ... just my view, of course.
