The only stick there is to beat him with is his finishing, but we all knew that so you can guarantee the recruitment team and Ange knew that too.
He isn’t in the squad to score tons of goals, he’s there to create them. Regardless of statistics, he creates so many chances in a game that go...
I’ll humour you.
It was well reported by ITK that certain promises were made and not kept at the board level, the club showed little faith in his philosophy and didn’t back him adequately yet expected him to sign an extension to his contract.
I’m not sure about you, but if my employer promised...
I would prefer for Ange to stick to his system and guns, that’s how you build title/cup winning teams. We just need to look at Liverpool/Arsenal/City for evidence of this.
Those 3 all have stubborn managers, set in their ways, with little compromise other than some tactical flexibility...
Arsenal’s forward options are Martinelli, Saka, Jesus, Trossard, Nketiah and Havertz. Not exactly world beaters either. It’s all about form and time within a system at the end of the day. The more time they have to learn the better they will be.
(Not saying we shouldn’t look at upgrades, just...
It should more of a question of, if both teams are on form, how well does Ange’s system do against our direct rivals like Liverpool, Man City and Arsenal. This is assuming we are fighting for a title.
The first 10 games of the season would suggest that, even when not at its absolute best, when...
The funny thing is we’ve scored more goals this season than last. Which tells you that overall, the squad is stronger than it was last season, without Kane.
It’s been this way for years now under numerous managers. The only thing we can hope for is that our new scouting and recruitment strategy continues to reap benefits for us before time runs out for Ange.
I wouldn’t blame him though, just like I haven’t blamed any of the previous managers. The...
I wanted to ask the same thing. How have we gone from Conte doesn’t deserve time or the players he needs to implement his style, but now we have the same fans crying out for that treatment for Ange? I thought Ange was going to come in, show us that Conte is a shit manager and bring the best out...
Are we really debating whether or not to sign him permanently? We’ve seen nothing of worth from Gil or Manor to suggest they need to stay in the squad over Timo.
5 G/A in 11 games since signing and he’ll probably get close or above 10 by the end of the season.
The textbook definition of a no...
You're arguing against a difference of opinion though.
No one has categorically said they don't want us to compete in the UCL, and I said in my original post that it would benefit the project in the long run by giving us the best chance to actually win something by competing in the EL...
The CL form looks better because we've featured there more in the last decade than Europa, and this coincides with us having our best team in 30 years under Poch.
However if we're really using past performances as a metric we've actually won the Europa League twice.
This is why I don't like...
