Signing a short central midfielder is a big risk, as it's against modern football principles. If playing with a two-man midfield, the average height of both midfielders should be 1.85 meters, with the short midfielder being at least 1.81 meters, or higher if the others start at 1.89 meters.

Juan isn't suitable to play as a lone striker; he's too short. He's going to Lille, a Champions League team, for 20 million euros. We bought him from Sao Paulo for 900,000 euros, and we suffered a lot for his development. You didn't provide any financial support. SR finished the season with a 25 million euro profit, a club whose budget was the same as some teams in the Turkish third division. Despite making a 25 million euro profit, they bought a 27-year-old striker from the Brazilian third division, and we narrowly missed out on European cups.

Juan isn't suitable to play as a lone striker; he's too short. He's going to Lille, a Champions League team, for 20 million euros. We bought him from Sao Paulo for 900,000 euros, and we suffered a lot for his development. Lille will play in the Champions League qualifiers; he transferred to Lech Poznan. We got him from Altay for free.

Juan isn't suitable for a lone striker role; he'll probably transfer to Champions League team Lille for 20 million euros. You need strikers who are 1.85m tall or taller. If you have a budget of 20-25 million euros, I would try to get Álvaro Rodriguez; he's very similar to Romulo.

Jelert, playing as a full-back in a five-man defense, is too short and like a pretzel stick, even for a five-man defense. A shameful transfer.

It's high time to get rid of him. We need a striker over 1.85m tall who can also play as a lone striker.

These footballers are rare examples and from a bygone era. How many teams today play a 1.75m tall center-back and a 1.75m lone striker? A three-man defense is a formation that compensates for the shortness of defenders, while formations like 3-1-4-2 or 3-5-2 with a central midfield compensate for the shortness of midfielders. Teams playing with a two-man central midfield should use two number 8s, with an average height of 1.85m, to cover the area effectively. In a 3-1-4-2 or 3-5-2, it could be one tall number 6 and two shorter number 8s, or one short number 6 and two tall number 8s.

Stephens and Edwards are too short for a 1.85m center back. Anyone under 1.88m is too short for a center back. Manning and Jelert are too short for a four-man full-back, especially since Jelert gets overwhelmed in a four-man defense. https://x.com/SoletLang/status/1962239171130466787?s=20

Playing with a four-man defense is a mistake when the center-backs and full-backs are short. Fellows can carry the ball from defense to attack all by himself, playing the role of two players on the right side.

Players who don't get any playing time.

We paid Juan, Matsuki is back, it doesn't cost you anything.

We don't have players we can loan from the Premier League or Championship; these leagues aren't where young, lower-caliber players can get playing time. Should we loan the 19-year-old striker we signed from the Jordanian league or the 18-year-old we signed from the Finnish second division? We've given Matsuki some experience, and he's contributed a bit to our scoring, so that's roughly the potential benefit between the two clubs.

How could Göztepe, which closed the last four transfer windows with a combined €16 million surplus, be using Southampton for cash? We also have the lowest wage budget in the Turkish league by far, with total expenses of €9 million and combined income of just €5 million.

Your help is practically non-existent, and your expectation of a top-tier striker like Sesko in return is far too high. No one said there would be such a benefit. If you had signed Romulo first, he would have wanted to leave after relegation, and nothing would have changed. The Victor Hugo loan didn't affect the Alcaraz transfer fee.
