Definitely. Bruno, Nani, Ronaldo, Joel Pereira and Dalot is arguably a 4 in 5 success rate.
Netherlands is close to a 1 in 3 with Van Nistelrooy, Van Persie, Van der Sar, Stam and even Blind. De Ligt and Zirkzee could add to this further.
Argentina is 4 from 9, even if things ended poorly with Tevez and Heinze.
Rashford yes, but I'd hardly say Amad goes about it half-committing. He's happy to get stuck in and wins the ball back quite well.
Joel Pereira?
Keeper. This is also Bebe erasure!
I think it's more to have a signing on deadline day. Fans go crazy for that last bit of transfer action that it looks like we are trying to get in on that action. Obviously would have been nice if this was done earlier so he could maybe train with the team a few days this week.
He's passed his medical. His long can it take to post a few shitty photos and say, "He's signed"
We do make a meal out of basic ass stuff sometimes.
My assumption was awaiting the outcome of Sancho so he could take 25.
Why do these announcements always drag out. If he flew here Tuesday night. Had his medical Wednesday should have got announced yesterday.
Anyone think he’ll start against Liverpool or the usual come of bench for 10 mins debut?
2 of those were academy grads, and what about the dozens of shit English signings?
Scottish - Denis Law, Joe Jordan, Gordon McQueen, Lou Macari, Martin Buchan.
He won't start and I doubt he'll be on the bench even.
Don't think he'll start. Second half sub.
Ferguson was much better at giving players proper debuts immediately.
You can just stop after the first four words of the sentence.
Sure. Probably with an armband too
It would be setting him and the team up for failure if he got thrown in to start, it would be madness, sadly.
Happy Friday or Happy Ugarte day
Introduction by fire, let's go..
Joking aside, I don't see him starting, at least for 3-4 matches
Sun on Sunday then he'll the game after the international break due to the dreaded flight fatigue.
Nah, he would sometimes wait a few games before starting a new players as well.
ETH doesn’t even know Ugarte, he has never coached him, so will probably take a few weeks before he can integrate him into the team.
Didn’t see this yesterday
Doesn’t Bebe represent Cape Verde officially?
Media team looking for maximum traffic/impact.
well at least we know today is the day!
Don't know why but I've grown incredibly frustrated with this transfer. Almost to the point I hope it falls through.
Or maybe I'm just hungry.
Or maybe I'm just hungry.
This is my biggest fear as well. The knobheads Pawson, Oliver, Taylor, Hooper, Attwell, Coote and Madley will be seeking to stamp down on any aggression to make a point and steal headlines.
We’re probably waiting for McSauce’s transfer to be confirmed before we can press the “publish” button on X.
I doubt he drops Casemiro for him for a while.
I don’t think that he will be registered in time
I’m not sure you know what “1 in 5” means. For every English success I’d say we’ve had 4 or more failures!
They weren't signings, they were academy players. Successes include;
Rooney, Carrick, Ferdinand, Young, Hargreaves, Sheringham, Cole, Smith, Bruce, Ince, Pallister, Parker, Sharpe, Phelan, Owen (winner against Man City is enough).
But then the ones that failed are the likes of May, Jones, Smalling, Zaha, Powell, Foster, Dublin, Steel, Greening, Richardson, Sealey, Milne, Anderson, Leighton, Webb, Wallace, Lawton.
There are some more obscure English players signed that failed but cba to search for them.
How’d you work 1 in 3 out for Netherlands? I’d say they were all a success not just 2
Sancho and Mount are failures as well. I would not exactly say that Smalling is a failure.
He didn’t included the non-successes like Depay, Weghorst, Buttner, VdB etc.
3 hours left.
I only counted the Sir Alex Ferguson era. This era is a complete write off so pointless even including anyone tbh.
Boring end to the saga
