To be fair to him, I'm not convinced he's calling people out there - just my interpretation of course, but in a second d language it sounds more like a clumsy rallying cry for everyone to commit / trying not to just isolate the players as responsible. My main gripe is he really does give the...

I can't understand why people - apparently including De Zerbi - can't get their head round why that might be. We truly have been spoilt if we genuinely think we can pull a rabbit out of a hat, turn water into wine and feed the 5000 every single time. The only way we'll be able to replace...

All De Zerbi.

Alan Pardew and Phil Brown's belt holstered Nokias have just gone off.

Or at the very least have the balanced long term health of the club at heart rather than individual egos.

Quite.

A good manager, that has a set of resources that he can't currebtly change but needs to rely on to get results will support, manage and encourage, and keep his counsel until such time as those resources can be changed. A thin skinned manager worried about his reputation will undermine his...

I think the insinuation that it was De Zerbi led were his glowing comments about Fati at the time, reflections on the first time he'd seen him and what a fan he was, where he envisaged him fitting in and taking us to the next level etc. Same with Dahoud really. As opposed to other purchases by...

It depends what both you and he expected them to be replaced by I suppose. And under what system and set of expectations brought the coveted world class players that were sold, to Brighton in the first place.

I really want to work out a double entendre featuring the names of a famous old German striker and a current argentinian superstar now.

He does obviously think that. The broader question is - is it actually, within reason, true? Everyone can come up with their own conclusion really can't they,but there is no dictionary definition of being backed. Although a synonym might be 'sounds better than it being my fault, for future...

I'll definitely be getting both mullered and Messy in Rome.

Another way of looking at it was that WBG came through to replace one of those players, we already had Gross and Baleba was brought in as a promising youngster, and Milner in as a steady old head,with Dahoud a key addition and with Moder on his way back. You literally can't like for like...

He might turn out to be great but my born in the 70s prejudices mean I'll never be able to see past an invasive neck tattoo.

"Now we can’t change anything. We have to move on to play better, to fight better, to play with different energy." Way to move on about a thing that can't be changed, guy. I hope your audience on Merseyside and Catalonia were listening.

It's definitely true. Its really only CM where we might be a bit light, but with Moder back we still have 4 CM's - and that doesnt include Hinshelwood playing there. No one can argue that with a club our size he hasn't been 'backed'. If you have a lot of injuries you can't just keep...

Did he understand the problem when he asked for Dahoud and Fati?
