Things to hope for today:
- A convincing 2-0 win
- Martinez and Malacia starting and shutting down the right wing to the opposition - the most vulnerable area in the last few seasons.
- Rashford and Sancho playing heads ups with a spring in their step
- Fred looking like a good option at 6
Reports in the last few days of a move for PSVās Gakpo or Sane from Bayern. Looks like theyāre trying to bring in a winger that can play up front rather than a striker.
Centre midfield has to be addressed. Another sesson looking at McTominay would bring tears to your eyes.
Yeah another starter or two required. McTominay and Fred are grand as squad players but not much more than that.
Iād love if Hannibal, zidane and a couple more started.
Time to give the younger guys a chance.
Agree. No point putting out lads that you know are not good enough.
Is Van de Beek going to get a run at it now under his old boss or is he more or less wrote off?
Every manager has concluded that he is not good enough. I canāt imagine they are all wrong. Unfortunately Gunnar spent a lot of money and didnāt even get a bag of magic beans.
A Woodward purchase to try an appease the fans really. Heāll get some more minutes betweej now and January thanks to the five subs rule but the most likely most for him is likely back to Ajax.
This could be the worst season yet. There are serious holes in this squad. Hope a couple of the youth players step up and the three new lads deliver.
I canāt see that. The coaching already appears to have massively improved.
Three signings in, so far, and a mist of the unhelpful egos on the squad have been removed. Itās also good to see that theyāre not just signjng players for the sake of commercial interests.
The media coverage is as dire as ever. Lawrenson yesterday saying they shouldnāt have allowed all the players to leave. If theyād stayed heād be saying they should have left.
Iād agree with you there. Most of the toxic, dabbing morons are gone. Martialās attitude stinks though and not sure about Maaarcus either.
Marcus is a good guy and it looks like he has put in massive work in the off season.
Martial seems to have responded well but I wouldnāt be surprised if he returns to sulking if he spends time on the bench.
Top four and some deep cup runs would be a nice first season for ETH.
Odd enough conversation from the footix here
Rashford hasnāt preformed in a long time. Iād be more than happy if he did but Iām not convinced.
Paddy Footix is a strange creature.
Is Zidane any relation to Zinedine?
Ex Liverpool players in the media should be avoided at all cost
The cunts in all their guises should be avoided.
I remember seeing if lawersons predictions actually came through on football focus Liverpool would have won five league titles in a row including a three season unbeaten run.
Heās an ape.
Any word on the team?
