Pep wouldnt want him if he would cause any trouble. Pep probably knows. We don't.
He would be a great addition at a difficult time. Its a yes.

I would prefer a CB or LB first. If Stones, Otter or Delph get injured we are in trouble whereas we have a plethora of attacking options/cover. I think Sanchez will come mind, I just don't see him as a priority for the squad/team at the mo

Pep doesn't do defence.

Marsh effected how we played, he slowed us down. No such problem would occur if Sanchez joined (not to say I want him, would prefer a defender or two).

Quite right WW, you can't have too many top players and he is one of the toppest ;)


That's brilliantly subtle JC. :lol:

Whenever Sanchez is mentioned from now on, "toppest" will spring to mind; especially in a beetroot context, given our culinary interests.

Wasn't there some personal trauma with mr Bravo, I thought.

And we certainly look far more comfortable with playing the ball out from the back after a season of practice. Changing the way we playing was never going to be an instant success. It takes time and mistakes to be made to master it

He hasn't come out and said anything, no. Just speculation.

Nothing to do with playing it from the back mate. He couldn't save shots that were directly at him!!

...and then bought Ederson, who is a beast. I trust Pep. And based on how this season has gone you'd be a fool not to.

Was an observation mate. Calling another fan a fool for not getting carried away is rag like imo.

Ahhh. The old rag accusation. Good one...

Although not very fair on JC. I thought the Norman Wisdom video was quite funny!

I think Mase is just expressing some lingering reservations, based upon last season's mistakes which, in some ways, might be a healthy thing to do, amidst all the current euphoria.

It's all gone swimmingly well so far, but the campaign is a long one and there may well be devastating down-turns along the way.

Personally, I'm hoping Pep is stronger and has learned well from last season, it certainly looks like it but only time will really tell.

Graeme Souness said we are going to start losing soon as well :?

No doubt pep has taken a lot from last season. It can be seen in team selections. Yesterday's game is the type of game we may well have drawn last season.

Nice to see someone understands.
Just because I’m not get carried away doesn’t mean I’m not buzzin with our start. It’s been great and the football has been brilliant to watch. Everyone upping their game.

I’m not going to say Pep has earned my trust 100% though yet, mainly because of be stuff I’ve already mentioned. Add to that not going for a backup left back and focusing purely on trying to get Sanchez may well bite us in the bum if Delph gets injured.
