[Yayo Toure]

Did Sutton just say Spurs have had 37 injuries this season?



World Cup hangover.


But also have to consider, that either Poch is over working them in training and/or the medical department needs to be overhauled.

Low key they need to sell most of the first team, plus the manager. No matter what they or the media say, their lack of achievement is running through their veins and they need an overhaul to fix it.

Roma been doing this prior to Monchi turning up there anyway. I think it has been the model since the Americans took over.

He is a good administrator, talent spotting not so sure. Steve Walsh finding Kante and Mahrez is better than what Monchi has done in the last decade. Cannot give him credit for Rakitic either.

Roma has always been a selling club before and with Pallota but they actually spent money this time. 25m for Pastore, 20m for Kluivert, tried to spend 35m on Malcom but only when Barca stole him did he go for Nzonzi for 25m.

You don't have to be a genius to see that defense with Florenzi at RB, 33 year old Kolarov (who played almost all matches last season), 32 year old Fazio, dumbass Manolas and garbage ass Jesus might struggle after losing a top 5 keeper.


So I think it's the opposite with Monchi, good at finding cheap young talent but fails to address overall team needs. He got Under and Zaniolo who are already 50m players but then last season he signs Hector Moreno who couldn't even get on the pitch, then follows it up with signing Ivan Marcano this season

Robin Olsen's back ups are Mirante and Fuzato (breh doesn't even have a wiki page).

I agree with the lack of achievement, with this current group. Going off league finishes, since 05/06 season, Spurs have been a top 6 club. Dig a little deeper and the average league finish in that time is more 4-5th.

2nd x 1
3rd x 2
4th x 2
5th x 5
6th x 1
8th x 1
11th x 1

10 Top 5 finishes out of 13 seasons.

Not saying Spurs should always been challenging for the league in this timeframe, but this plucky underdog image that the media and some fans like to portray is

This squad has been together long enough for no return is . They can say we got CL, but Arsenal fans got clowned for using that as an excuse for lack of trophies. People will blame the stadium, blame Levy, not being able to compete on transfers and wages vs others, but the coach and squad have to take a portion of the blame also. And I've been saying, while Poch has done a great job, the lack of getting to finals, doesn't look good on him, the squad has a lack of winning mentality. He got to the League Cup final in his first season and nothing since. Even Sherwood and Bruce have made finals in that time.

Yes Roma use to sell big name players in the past, but they would get a few good seasons out of those players and not do what they did with Lamela, Salah, Allison, Romagnoli and others. Sell them after season, that's the American owners model. You expect teams like Genoa, Verona's, Torinos to flip players quickly like that, not a team like Roma.

He may of asked for Zaniolo, but Italian clubs always do strange complex transfers (With the 50/50 ownership, obligation to buy etc etc). And clubs are always throw in young players in transfer deals, cannot give Monchi credit for that, Baldini would of done the same deal tbh.

He only went after Malcolm and got Justin K to flip them later on down the line. A proper talent spotter is finding rough diamonds, not young talent that is already rated.

@Max B fukk your club and another cup exit fakkit

 

[THEREALBRAND]

Santos up 2-0 on São Paulo.

Low key we haven't looked that trash, so far this season. Sampaoli is getting the most out of what he has available

 

[THEREALBRAND]

Still not a true believer in Sampaoli, but a 2-0 win in his first SanSão is a great start.

What are you smoking, with this nonsensical opinion.

I think we're just talking in circles Anyway Nazio lost so it's still a good day

 

[THEREALBRAND]

Ronaldinho probably made half of that squad commit Seppuku
