    Could have said that in 2008. Enter Luka Modric ...

    I don’t rate the squad as much as others but they’re definitely good enough to be in the top half.

    I think that most of the players are good, but that we lack balance.
    Started the season with a fullback deficiency and no holding midfielders, for a start.
    The system and complete lack of tactics and organisation are a separate issue.

    Halving the number of tactical plans hasn't helped

    We're using last season's Plan B as our default tactics, but when that doesn't work we just do that same plan only faster

    This is great news, but if I was the lad I think I'd have a release clause for this summer! <laugh>

    He will only be 25 at the end of this contract so he’s got lots of time to earn that move.

    What is it with Madrid clubs and campaigns to unsettle players?

    Hope he goes tbh. Think that we've got cover for him, we'd get decent money for him, he's too injury prone, a bit(!) reckless and prioritises playing international football (fair enough imo).
    Wouldn't be gutted if he stay but think a move makes sense all round

    It's been suggested that Bayern are going to try to sell Joao Palhinha in the summer.
    He doesn't fit into Kompany's plan, apparently.
    We should be all over that one. Exactly what we need.

    So, Ange's first comments about next year are that he needs to bring in experience.
    Bit of a no-brainer I suppose, but who?

    Well, for one, I'd love to see Harry back here. He would be the perfect role model on so many levels to our younger players and might reignite Sonny for another season.

    Would he come back? Damn right,... he would :emoticon-0148-yes:

    Little bit of DH ITK for you - Charlie Kane was at the stadium last night and my mate bumped into him, Charlie said Harry definitely wants to break the Prem record but didn’t confirm if that’d be with Spurs or not, did however say “I can guarantee you it won’t be with Arsenal”.

    It's a no-brainer for me, buddy. He ticks virtually every box and what a way for him to wrap up a career.
    It's just a pity his brother is such a dick - cos I wouldn't trust a word he says!! <laugh>

    If Munich had also won the CL in one of the
    previous two seasons, then IMHO returning to
    take the Shearer record would have been on.

    Now I believe tis too late for him (lest he
    would endure a Rooney-esque England
    demeaning career just to get the record) .

    Harry has said he's very happy at Bayern for now. It took him the best part of a year to get his family settled so I doubt he'll now uproot them again having just done that.

    Even though i don't think ange uses sonny right when he came on last night the man looked like he was running in treacle. Half of his superpower was how great he was at carrying the ball with his devastating speed. Maybe a super sub blasting it in from range but not as a starter

    I think CK might be right you know
