Southie_Owl Posted March 30, 2017 Share Posted March 30, 2017 Wish we would be set up with the formation and tempo of Barcelona too Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Dukeries Owl Posted March 30, 2017 Share Posted March 30, 2017 If we lost 4-0 away in the cup they'd all want to give Carlos the boot. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

HirstWhoScoredIt Posted March 30, 2017 Share Posted March 30, 2017 The difference being that Barcelona pick Luis Suarez whereas I doubt he will pick Hooper in our first XI. Not unless he is willing to leave out Neymar, Messi or Rhodes. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gnarwolf Posted March 30, 2017 Share Posted March 30, 2017 He wasn't comparing them as players directly, just stating the fact that if any team has injuries in their first 11, they're going to struggle, and we have, and we've struggled. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I know that. It just makes me chuckle when you think of Forestieri as our Messi, Hutchinson as our Busquets and Wallace as our Neymar etc Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

trev Posted March 30, 2017 Share Posted March 30, 2017 He does have a point, we have lost the spine of the team, our best 4/5 players..all at the same time. It is monumentally unlucky and any team in the world would suffer if you took their best 5 players out. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Of course they would - and even without those players we are still 6th yet some fans are still not happy and the money we have spent argument doesn't wash as there are 8 teams who have bigger wage bills (as far as I am aware).

OasisOwl72 Posted March 30, 2017 Share Posted March 30, 2017 I get the analogies and it's relatively harmless. My only concern is the message it sends to the rest of the squad. Wallace/Neymar? That is the one I really struggle with! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

When everyone is fit I would like to see the below. Maybe need a place for Abdi instead of Bannan Forestieri Rhodes Hooper/Mcman.

Carlos has also signed poor/useless deputies such as urby and players he doesn't like such as Buckley and Mcmanaman. People like myself are perhaps a tad over critical, I can admit that but to say we have done as well as we should this season would be a lie.

One of the pundits on RS said we are approximately 9th in the wake bill league - it may have been Brian Laws but not 100% sure Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
