If we dont go up, I think he would be worth retaining. I was never convinced in him as a signing for the PL, but his record is certainly good enough to give him a go at this level.
It’s no coincidence that the worst managers we’ve ever had have made the worst striker signings we’ve ever had and vice versa. From now on if we’re on a massive losing streak with a dickhead in charge, let’s not let them sign anymore forwards.
Harsh but true. Do managers actually sign players any more? I thought it was a committee looking at stats and stuff.
The question of the summer will be, if RM couldn’t win promotion with this squad, is there any chance of him doing it next year minus the very best players?
When you wed yourself to a philosophy you live or die by it. If this lot can’t keep clean sheets or win enough games who will it take because Rodri and Foden aren’t out there waiting for us to spot them. Aside from Adams not being very good at scoring goals every position on the pitch will be the same or weaker next year and there will be a lot of churn and rebuilding required.
Great news - I hope we bring him back for 3 years on £70k per week, because he`s a really nice chap in the dressing room.
Che off to Bournemouth this summer sadly The loan of Brooks and Rothwell was to oil the wheels for a freebie after the season
