That’s what it comes down to for me.Considering that Fabinho would now be my second CB on the team sheet, yeah. I would try to keep Gini now as we have one less midfielder.
That’s my thing. This club and the management wouldn’t let it get to this stage if he was staying. His statements make it really seem like he’s set on leaving.I’m in the “if he was staying we would already know it” camp.
Under these circumstances I’m ok with eating a Bosman on this one.That’s my thing. This club and the management wouldn’t let it get to this stage if he was staying. His statements make it really seem like he’s set on leaving.
I think there are probably 2 things at play. 1) he wants a retirement contract that reflects how good he is right now, and that's going to be tough for any team because of his mileage and age despite being a World Class midfielder and likely to be one for at least another year or two. 2) LFC are probably looking at easing him into a more rotational role, taking away his minutes as they try to bring more minutes for others they're easing into the team which probably doesn't sit well with him being as competitive as he is.It’s easier said than done with contracts. We don’t know if he feels it’s time to move on. We saw that with Thiago. Maybe he wants to know he’s a starter, as Klopp hasn’t always seen that. Maybe he is being offered a giant contract. His agent wouldn’t be worth his money if he didn’t have an idea what was out there. It will be whatever it is.
Funny how Wijnaldum and Sissoko have become so important for two of the better teams in the world - bought from a relegated Newcastle.
I'm all for giving coaches a chance, but at this point you gotta figure Arteta's used up all his losses and has to go on a convincing extended win streak to keep his job
Son has an xG of 3.88, but has 10 goals this season. Don't know how sustainable that is going to be, but he's basically winning Spurs games by himself due to his incredible efficiency in scoring from less than half chances. We will see, he is such a good finisher that he might keep it up, but it is a bit reminicent of Aubameyang for Arsenal last season.
Hopefully his efficency drops back to normal levels soon.
Always has been and Mourinho, like he does with all his forwards, made it worse. With Kane he could not have asked for a better striker either because he is a white, English player, so Jose knows the FA, and (especially) the media, will let him get away by with murder. Diving, fouling, etc, Kane is Teflon.So when did Kane become a dirty player?
