Oh I know that. Just if that theory was true, and he likes players like Maxi/Meireles etc as you pointed out. Then why not play them? His transfers are also completley different players. Surely if that theory was true he'd have bought more intelligent footballers?
I don't think he likes them per say. Just that they are a much better fit for his system.

Someone has questions to answer too. And right from the very beginning. We bought Suarez to play with Torres. Then bought a striker completely different to replace him :S

Likewise we had a brilliant end to the season, then we tore up that blueprint and brought in completely different types of players

But they just highlight more individual performance. Attack minded players getting the goals you're missing this season. Downing is not the same quality and Henderson needs time, but the main point is, it would be unfair to expect them to come in and replace what they did.
I don't think it is, they cost £36m and they were brought in as first team players.

The reason we worked so well last year is because the whole team was moving and passing effectively which was making the team much stronger than it should have been. Don't believe it was individuals at all. Spearing under Kenny last year was very verry good for example.
Not always about the price. They're not the same quality and therefore not expected to have the same role. I just can't see Hendo or Downing doing what Maxi or Meireles were. Like replacing Ronaldo with Valencia and then saying he's not intelligent bcos he can't do what Ronaldo did.

I agree with the passing and moving, but once again it's poor quality in key areas.

So he got lucky last season he had those players who enjoyed more freedom? :lol:


Still, if he is trying to play the same way and has marginalised the players who have worked well for him in place for his poor signings it's just bad judgement

This is brilliant. I hope that the victims stay shite. It wouldn't be half as much fun reading these pages if their fans actually supported them!!

Sorry but those subs are retarded. Bring on your target man and take off your only winger and Shelvey who can also pick a pass.
