Do you reckon there's a single manager out there who would come out that bluntly? Perhaps don't pretend it's just Rosenior who would spin a transfer window in the positive.
Exactly. He finally gets the wingers .... then let's Oscar go without replacing him. As said several times, I still really don't know how Rosenior intends setting us up and what this 'unique' playing style is Maybe here's a clue ..... https://www.mancity.com/players/mens . Only 2 strikers?
I've seen Sandat mentioned a few times. Am I missing something? What are people seeing in an 18yo who has played 12 matches for Southend? He is most likely 2 years away from the first team. Harry Wood seems to be a more informed option when he returns in November, but replacing Oscar? Naaah. We needed another striker and we didn't try hard enough to get one for some unfathomable reason. The rest of the squad has adequate cover, but this seems a huge ommission to me, especially given our previous injury history squadwise. Edit: Wasn't up to date with posts. I'm clearly not the only one
100% but we haven’t had permission off the hierarchy to be negative yet. Also don’t forget Rosie knows better
I’m non the wiser myself, out all day and evening yesterday, popped on periodically to try to find snippets of information, with no luck. Page one not being updated is tardy to say the least… unless we’ve sold OLM too!
I can hear the commentaries now.... Philogene crosses... Loliko crosses.... Philogene crosses... Loliko crosses... but its still 0--0
The people who defend Rosenior as much as they do on here would’ve turned on him already were it not for the fact he was a popular player for us. Derby’s interim manager for a few months who got binned off for Paul Warne never would’ve got the job in the first place at City if he had no prior connection to the club. It’s the Solskjær Effect.
Delap, Connolly, Tufan, Twine, and Slater can all finish proficiently, so I'm not convinced that losing Oscar from the bench is going to cause a goal drought.
The irony being that Solskjær was probably United's most successful recent manager and was sacked purely because people rubbished his qualifications for having the job.
No he wasn’t, Mourinho was the most successful in recent years. Solskjær hasn’t had a job in coaching or management since. I wonder why.
"We signed Henry Sandat, he's someone who is a development signing, but if he's good enough, he can come in the team. We are looking to develop the whole club, not just the first team." This quote from Rosenior suggests that he thinks Sandat has a chance this season. Vaughan was a similar type of signing and he's looked alright.
