I noticed a put up on X this weekend and I’ll begin this text with it…
Mr George Smiley (@GeorgeSmileyOBE):
“Real remark..
“Genuinely consider & stand by it, we’re a high class centre again & high goalkeeper off giving it a correct go for the title..
“However let’s get extra attackers..”
I agree with this assertion.
Our assault is so significantly better this season as a result of we’ve signed the suitable profiles and we’ve signed expertise. It’s that straightforward.
If we add the suitable profiles and expertise on the again, I’d have the arrogance to say that we might problem for every thing this season. I genuinely consider this. I don’t assume we’re excellent and have some inconsistencies to iron out, but when we added a high goalkeeper and a dominant and imposing centre again who’s vocal, leads, and controls the play from the centre of the again, then I actually assume we’re just about there with our squad construct.
That is why it frustrates me, and angers me really, to see Chelsea being obsessive about signing Alejandro Garnacho and Xavi Simons on this remaining week moderately than being obsessive about signing a goalkeeper and a centre again. I do assume Simons is required, completely I do. However in addition to him, the precedence must be a goalkeeper after which a centre again.
I truthfully don’t perceive it. There’s no justification for it even when somebody wished to try to clarify a cause for it. I’m not listening to that there isn’t the choices there. We have now unimaginable scouts, go discover the choices. It’s not like we haven’t had time, it’s a stupidly lengthy switch window. We want gross sales? Tremendous, make gross sales then! It’s all too late now in fact, and it’s such a disgrace, as a result of if we don’t tackle this then it’ll usually come again to chew us within the butt this season, I assure you that.
I’m fully miffed….
