This formation screams keep it tight and look to carlos and sulemana on the break

yeah i dont think mara is crap, he's young and didnt cost a lot i think he has potential, he mobile, can score and can see a pass, he just in a shit house team at the moment in his 1st epl season. Will like to see some how some of our players perform in a possession team, making runs and actually having through balls etc.

It's the sport republic way

Hope they pay 50 now, but really less after clause, let us have him on loan for the year (or he goes somewhere outside top 6 in EPL on loan) then they move him the city the year after once they've ditched sicknote Phillips and he starts rotating with Rodri.

I just want sexy fast and accurate footballers with a balance of 50% under 23 and the others over. I want possession with intent and I want a lot a lot a lot of goals and no comedy defending. Basically I want us to be a cross of prime Barca, Brazil and Man City with our budget.

That cos we like our playmakers to not make play and just defend.

I am 100% sure your right.

Yeah player of the year in L1 - goal and assist machine - only read about him but he defo will be moving somewhere this summer i'd guess

hahahahahhahaha legit - now spend today playing russell martin tactics with his assumed squad for next year and let us know how we get on.

Why havent any of out football manager guru's played Martins tactics with a guess of squad (piroe etc no lavia) for the championship. What does FM say ?

hahahahahahaha you had me

Injure lavia so he can't leave

JWP is too slow and is not an elite footballer like those you mentioned to make up for it.

JWP is too slow for a team that expects to be in the top 6.

yeah i thought dortmund as well - they will have money to spend - maybe a bit outside their usual transfer spend as they usually like cheaper.

Possession is 9/10ths of the law If the police catch you in possession your in trouble. So many quandary's about possession.

yeah fair - Lavia today is a great press resistant midfielder, JWP is a world class free kick taker and a good assist player - this season i'd say they are the same. Lavia is on his way to the stars though like Bale in my opinion.

If this is a comparison thread between Lavia and JWP, they aren't comparable they are 2 different types of midfielders.

I'm weighing up whether I'm gonna bang some super model and swap them for the current version.

If wilcox rates him thats good enough for me and he will give him the tools to get the most out of that system he has helped develop and support at city. If he fails, wilcox fails and given he's incharge of transfers as well I am sure he's going for the sexiest players possible including some man city talents.

What about his crossing chez, that's your all important metric for left backs 🤣

We are trying to slag off a girlfriend who we think is gonna dump us, it's a emotional protection response. Ignore
