    This thread at the moment is eerily similar to this Poch thread around the same time in his first season. We made 5 transfers the summer after (Son, Toby, Njie, Wimmer and Trippier) and challenged for the league...

    Lloris, Walker, Vertonghen, Rose, Dembele, Eriksen, Lamela and Kane a probably get in this team if we are honest. Poch started with a squad that finished 6th the season before. Past spend is incomparable, player prices have changed a lot in 9 years.

    That is because the stats you are looking at is "Last 356 days" which includes his time at RBL. @Trix was posting stats at his time here. He has dropped to 84th and 85th percentile respectively now though,

    Lots of possibilities on this one. - He is prioritising implementing his style over fixing it. - Its a different "problem" to the one he had at Celtic. - He is, but the players are having trouble implementing the fix. - Maybe they are not just "mistakes: but just part of a learning curve and we...

    In his 1st season at Yokohama, they conceded 56, in his 2nd season, they conceded 38, so maybe he is the guy to move us forward?

    1st Season at Celtic they conceded the joint 5th most in the league from set pieces (10). 2nd Season they conceded the least (6). Most people will be surprised by this, but we have only conceded 6 more than Arsenal from set pieces this season and only City have conceded fewer than them. We...

    This. At the start of Arteta's 3rd season (2 & 3/4 technically) they lost all 3 of there opening games after finishing 8th twice in their previous 2 seasons. They were 5th the season before he took over and it took him almost 3 seasons to get back to 5th. Last season we finished 8th and are...

    Grealish, Mahrez, Sterling, Foden and Gabriel Jesus are all "strong at 1v1s" and played for City over the last 3 seasons. Dembele.

    Not sure why everyone is assuming Davies will be LB, Emerson has played more mins a LB for us this season than Ben has and we also have Dragusin now, which would allow VdV to move to LB if thats what Ange wants to do.

    Barca have had various players injuried at different times in CM and DM, which means they have been playing Christensen in DM and Balde has been out for a few months, meaning Kounde has had to move to RB (as Cancelo has moved to LB). They have conceded 7 goals in those 3 CL games which is equal...

    Mate LWOS chat so much shit you might as well ignore anything they say. Last season we averaged 5.2 shots on target per game. This season it's 5.7. We are averaging 2.7 big chances per game v 2.1 but are missing 1.5 big chances v 1.1 last season and have 5.3 shots off target v 4.6. In...
