    The Summer 2024 scouting thread

    But is the data collected by the club being used to come up with stats?

    The Summer 2024 scouting thread

    Also is someone constantly recording how quickly each player runs and who and how is a 'pressure without physical or ball contact' being determined? I apologise if this is rude but I think these stats (as do most) come across as a bit nonsensical.

    Manager Watch: Ange Postecoglou

    But I don't think there is another solution to compete at the top without buying the best players (at some anyway). Buying the best players isn't an exact science and just spending money isn't everything but I don't think it is a coincidence when the clubs with the biggest wage bills tend to be...

    Manager Watch: Ange Postecoglou

    But isn't this part of the problem? Who really cares about what position we are regarding PSR unless we break it?

    Manager Watch: Ange Postecoglou

    The problem is we just buy a lot more players still at the medium range price levels.

    Match Threads Chelsea vs Spurs

    I think this is some of the problem though, What will actually happen to the players? He can't call them out in public otherwise he is throwing the players under the bus. Can't fine players and I don't think he would be able to tell Levy to sell 5-6 players if it would result in a financial loss...

    I think it will be a score draw, mostly likely 2-2.

    Manager Watch: Ange Postecoglou

    Will he be able to get the parts he needs without spending a fortune to get them though? I think 'coaching' can only take you so far and sometimes you just need to have the best players to be able to compete (if not, win) for the highest honours.

    Manager Watch: Ange Postecoglou

    The one thing I would say about the text in bold is under previous managers, posters would say it was up to the coach to improve the players he has and get the best out of them, rather go out and buy players. Would this be the case with Ange as well?

    The ousting of Daniel (COYS)

    To be fair, the thread was brought up again by someone looking to mock those who don't like Levy.

    The ousting of Daniel (COYS)

    Well if Ange and the players are talking about aiming to challenge for the league, I personally think it is a little unrealistic but time will tell.

    The ousting of Daniel (COYS)

    Well I would like some more focus on trying to win the cup competitions or the Europe League or ECL when we are in it. I used to support Levy but I think it became clear when we tried to join the ESL he only cares about the money.

    The ousting of Daniel (COYS)

    I apologise for misrepresenting what you said. Are you ok to clarify what the squad is challenging for? Do you mean for the league title?

    The ousting of Daniel (COYS)

    I apologise for the previous comment, it was a dick thing to say. As per my previous post, I think Levy has told Ange the league cup isn't a priority and to concentrate on the league. I don't think Levy actively doesn't want us to win the cups (I am sure he would be pleased if we did) but he...

    The ousting of Daniel (COYS)

    I don't think Levy has told anyone to deliberately lose a game but it wouldn't surprise me if Levy said the league cup isn't a priority and to focus on the league and Ange has followed that and used the game as @funkycoldmedina suggested.

    The ousting of Daniel (COYS)

    So it is fine when he mocks what other say but it is bad form when I do it back? As a serious response to his point, I imagine he would have probably told Ange what the club's priorities before the season started and it was reflected in the team. Why not put out the weakened side in the league...

    The ousting of Daniel (COYS)

    The club certainly isn't prioritising them. I think it was evidenced by the team we put out for Fulham game in the league cup
