Yeah? A goalkeeper like Johansson is miles more likely to give them a chance of staying up then a ball player no? Sunderland will go into every game bar 2 Leeds and Burnley not expecting to dominate the ball
Depends on who their manager is, if it’s someone like Rosenior then they will probably try and dominate the ball vs Man City.
My point being they aren't really a PL side just yet. They still have plenty of championship quality. Ipswich will probably ditch greaves when they go up again. Doesn't make him pl quality.
Calling anyone a c*** is a cheap easy shot I’ve said before , name calling means nothing , something associated with someone’s behaviour or flaws is fine if explained - there’s a few on here who take the ‘easy’ route like the media .
I was looking for the Govan tartan but couldn't find it Jock. I am still getting over the piss poor performance.
I wouldn’t call it a fire sale but we’ve clearly sold some players and replaced them with loans/frees that we wouldn’t have done if we hadn’t had financial restrictions. Either that or we’ve sold two CBs and replaced them with ones with injury concerns because we think it’s sensible. Alzate being transferred for the money he did was also weird - surely we’d have got more if we didn’t need his wages off the books or the money for the fee?
do you think that’s the case here or someone is encouraging bids for Pandur and Hughes? Even if it’s agents
Don't let GFAW see this. He'll try to ridicule you for calling it a firesale despite the fact you clearly didn't. But yes there's a clear financial imperative behind some of the decisions this summer. As there were last summer when we took the Greaves and Philo cash upfront.
Laughable response Always good to bring your post up from a few years ago and your true thoughts So explain and rationalise this “Effin ell , if you don’t sign players who are comfortable with the ball or have natural ball control you are going nowhere . I hope you don’t mind this but how many black players can caress and play a pass , they are mostly all muscle and power . Please don’t quote Pele and Viera and Rashford etc that’s not the point Emanuel can’t run , him and Wilks tie themselves in knots . Wilks is the football thickest footballer I’ve seen in a long time Coaching coaching coaching And we got rid of Batty for some of these Crowley turns in small circles can’t tackle and goes nowhere , Whyte is not far behind All Ipswich players were good with the ball and played neat football around each other . We play formatted two touch pass and stay !!”
Well done chief archivist ! My explanation and apology obviously were not kept in your files . it wasn’t meant to be racist it was as I explained a poor generalisation based on seeing a number of players I thought were fast strong and limited . Yet again you fail to respond to many other posts where you have no real substantive argument . As probably the worst user of the word C*** for nothing in the past you really have some nerve .
