    Management Ange Postecoglou

    Our central midfield is mediocre. Sarr has potential, but we need players that can dominate games even when under pressure. And, we sold one of the best strikers in the world without even trying to replace him. Deal with those issues and I think Ange has a decent chance at glory.

    Management Ange Postecoglou

    I love what he's trying to do, but with a squad like this we're gonna get destroyed every now and then. The absolute minimum is a new starting cb next week.

    Hard for me to know what you mean without actually saying it, but thanks for clearing up. I don't agree with either of your opinions.

    No strawman. You've been putting x'es on all my posts on this so can only assume you disagree with me about buying a striker. This is my opinion and I'm not gonna reply again: We sold our only specialist striker in Kane. We have a few players capable of playing CF, but they are not specialists...

    Son is not a specialist CF and neither is Richarlison. Both are best coming off the left. That's my claim. If you're happy going forward with those two and adding no one after selling Kane then I have no problem with that opinion. The Club should think differently though if they are serious...

    Played his best football from LWF at Watford imv and has approx the same amount of games in that position. Anyway, we don't need a plausible option, but someone with a proven goal scoring record. Richarlison is fine as cover for the front three.

    When have we ever done that with Kane? And who is talking like-for-like?

    I'm not saying one player will replace Kane only that it's ridiculous to sell our only proper striker and being happy with doing nothing.

    In my opinion this is wishful thinking and the sort of squad management that has gotten us in to trouble time and time again.

    Do you mean Son and Richarlison? None of them are specialist strikers. I would go with Son as CF out of those two. Or do you mean Scarlett and Veliz? I'm not counting them as senior strikers.

    Couple of counter points: Early optimism is warranted, but not attempting to replace at least some of Kane's goals will hurt us in the long term. I'm not talking about knee-jerk spending. Any serious football club would have started scouting as soon as Kane stopped engaging in contract talks...

    Lack of outgoings is no excuse for bringing in no one after selling Kane. Second league game of the season and zero senior specialist strikers. Sort it out.

    We have to try to upgrade on Richarlison. The line from the journos close to the club was always "who wants to come here and sit on the bench watching Kane play?". Well, that "problem" doesn't exist anymore.

    To dare is to decent stopgap. Decent stopgap FC etc.. It would be insane to sell Kane and not bring in another striker, right? We need a proper front man, not a winger/forward like Richarlison. Some really good signings in Maddison and Van de Ven though, and Udogie looks very talented. Imo we...

    Levy is probably waiting to see if any of the deadwood can be moved to the Saudi league.

    It's interesting how any manager we hire mysteriously becomes a fan of any random player we have been tracking for ages. Expecting stories about Ange Postecoglou being "a big fan" of free agents Wilf Zaha and Adama Traore any day now.

    I sincerely think quite a few of these things has to go right in the spring/summer for us to avoid a relegation battle next season. a good manager with a clear, possession based attacking plan Kane staying or being replaced by players that can contribute in a huge way creative cms brought in a...

    Management Fabio Paratici

    Only reported reaction from the Club so far in this whole mess is "we definitely didn't overpay for anyone". Checks out.
