    Anyone got any word on whether the Jackson story about “guess who didn’t win a trophy” was real? Because I would love for him to join the bomb squad if so.

    Can someone fill me in on Xabi’s situation at Real Madrid ? I am just beyond excited for this appointment and really need to temper my expectations

    I think the biggest indicator that the board truly “believes” in Alonso is the goalkeeper situation. Even if he’s fine with Sanchez as the No.1, we still need a decent backup keeper. Jorgensen should be shipped out.

    Penders isn’t ready yet. He’s obviously talented, but anyone who’s been following Strasbourg knows exactly what I mean. He needs regular game time, at least one more season out on loan.

    And that’s not even just based on yesterday’s game against Monaco, where 2 of the 4 goals were basically on him. He still doesn’t know how to properly parry the ball away to avoid giving opponents second chances. That’s probably his biggest weakness right now.

    Selll:

    Enzo, Disassi, Badiashile, Fofana, DDF, Garnacho or Gittens, Jorgensen, anyone else on loan who has no future here, Lavia, Delap

    Buy:

    Starting goalkeeper, Starting Centre back, Starting left mid, Starting striker, starting centre mid.

    Its not impossible. Im starting to believe.

    Edit: Downvotes usually mean im on the right track

  5. People are really getting giddy like Xabi is going to get backed😂😂

    Blueco have successfully bought time from the fanbase and stated that we need another 3 seasons to challenge

    Somehow our fanbase accepts this

    Blueco out!

    We don’t really need a 9 if Jackson is expected to come back

    We really need good wingers and CB’s

    Provided he comes back fit and ready, I’m excited to see Gittens under Xabi. Hopefully the lad can get a good period of fitness and game time

    To be fair I’m excited to see everyone. I loved Maresca but I haven’t been this dumbstruck by a managerial appointment since Tommy Tactics

  8. Based on Leverkusen formation, I think perfect signings would be Wharton in Xhaka role, Mukiele (did he play under Xabi at Leverkusen?) in Frimpong role, and a CB. If we are getting adding a LW, I’d love Ndiaye. That fills the 4 signings.
