How so?ETH will struggle to drop his £80m winger to accommodate his £60m midfielder.

He is good at pressing but honestly a jack of all trades, master of none.
He is good at certain attributes like finishing, passing etc but not fast, physical or consistent enough.
I knew he would be a flop for Man united because he is not a number 8, Tuchel tried that once and it flopped massively. He doesnt have the awareness of a CM. Also, another negative is nobody knows his best position, hes not a CF, he can play LW yes but isn't your typical winger. He is a good CAM but with Bruno at Man united he isn't going to play there.
He also tries hard for the team but when the going gets tough or hes not in form then its very hard for him to get it going again.
60M for Mason mount and the wages you have spent on him is good for us as we have just brought lavia for the same money on far less wages.
Yes we wanted to keep him for the fanbase/team but I was actually happy to get rid especially the price we you gave us.
May be ETHs downfall, but only time will tell all I can say is he is bang average so goodluck and his goals and assists for past 3 seasons reflect that.
City wanted Maguire…
Because they aren’t necessarily more knowledgeable than us. What sets us apart from them are things like ability to communicate, talent, confidence etc. Think about how much football we actually consume compared to lots of managers/players etc. You’ve had loads of players come out in the past and say they either barely watch football or even like it.Such a fecking weird signing
It was so blatantly obvious as well.
I remember being shouted down with ‘I think ETH knows a bit more about football than you’ etc - yeah, no shit, that’s why it’s so fecking odd!
How can a bunch of no marks (talking about myself here) on an Internet forum blatantly see certain things that skilled, knowledgeable coaches seemingly cannot..?
Football’s a weird game.

He is a troll masterminding our feck ups, that's what he is.Pep also wanted maguire, sanchez, cucurella. All turned out to be shit signings by their respective clubs.
And if this shit isn’t sorted out soon it will be 10 games in and mid table at best. FFS.Jesus wept, its two games in.
What a shocking Wum attempt. Failed miserably.Former chelsea fan here
Conte springs to mind straightawayAnd forego the huge payoff? No one in the right mind does it. It will never happen in this age.
Just change it to Cockney.
that's unacceptable.
Amongst our starting XI, Mount has the lowest number of touches (57). Even lower than Onana (91), Garnacho and Rashford (72)
I also think Onana has been more threatening if I'm being honest. In comparison, the ex-Chelsea midfielder Kovacic has registered 181 touches this season.

That's what I thought then quickly checked Arsenal's GK's stats. Ramsdale is dead last in touches.When you buy a goal keeper to play out from the back, he;s going to get more touches on the ball than some of the team. He'll be playing short passes along the back line, sometimes in quick succession, I think we term that 'stat padding'
Except he's from Portsmouth......
Like I said someone in their right mind. Also he pretty much everything to get himself fired at Spurs. He could have easily resigned.Conte springs to mind straightaway
Pretty much did he wasn’t sacked it was mutual agreementLike I said someone in their right mind. Also he pretty much everything to get himself fired at Spurs. He could have easily resigned.
This is why he was a relatively unpopular signing from the moment we were first linked with him... People have watched him for England and Chelsea for years, and he just isn't involved in the game enough. All England fans were pleading with Southgate to drop him because he's always on the periphery of games, he's just neat and tidy the occasions where he does touch the ball. It's even worse when you consider the role he was brought to do which was Eriksen's role from last season, who was generally our highest volume passer, who has now been replaced by one of the lowest volume passers we could possibly get.that's unacceptable.

Out until international break
McTominayI guess some got their wish of a Mount-less midfield.
Wonder who EtH will slot in.
McTominay
"I'm tired Haggy"He's the most fit option, isn't he ? I was thinking perhaps Eriksen.
McTominay
Fell of a Mount-ain!Fell of a cliff!
He was never picking us over CityKovacic could have been perfect for us, im genuinely bewildered how we didn't even get linked with the fella.
FOOKIN' HELL, ROBBIE!!! WHEN IS IT GONNA END?!That’s McT’s free pass to stay here another year then.
Probably offers us more than Mount does to be honest.That’s McT’s free pass to stay here another year then.
