The recruitment IS the problem.

It's unfair to lump Soriano with Txiki.

Txiki's role is to build a squad capable of winning trophies each season. He has completely failed and our transfers (both incoming and outgoing) have been mostly poor since he joined.

He needs to go.

Soriano, in his role as CEO, needs to act on this soon. We cannot trust Txiki to spend any more money.

That Ticky Bergershit I don't get, he's been shit. Soriano, I do get, he's been excellent. Pep, he's got time, I'm waiting out for.

If we are looking to replace someone from Spaffia it has to be Txiki. Look at the money we've spejt and defenders and goalkeeper we have. Absolutely unacceptable. Txiki is in charge of recruitements.

Business and development side, which is on Soriano, has never been in better shape. Pep needs time and players.

But yeah, Txiki out. He has had time and resources and we are in worse shape than we were when he joined. It would be purely business decision and one no one could really complain about.
Sometimes we're good and sometimes we're bad but when we're good, at least we're much better than we used to be and when we are bad we're just as bad as we always used to be, so that's got to be good hasn't it?

Imho, after Cook came two guys that do not know how to run this club. From every aspect. The club is a constant laughing stock for people like Clattencunt and FA and they offer zero protection.

I will not start with the transfers, that is something beyond funny.

We are all alone there and also because we allowed that

A serious question about the recruitment of new players to replace the ageing and the general shiteness:

If we had a blank chequebook who would you sign?

I do agree with the general consensus on here though; We have pissed away a lot of money on unsuitable and shit and that can only come down to one man.

Who is actually doing that?

With Mancini, Txiki was doing it, because he missed De Rossi and Hazard and brough Sinclair and Rodwell.

Not sure how much blame the board can take this season.

We have a manager that every club in the world wanted, apparently we chased him for years and everything was planned to let Pep set City up in his way.

There is no way that the board could now turn around and not give Pep what he wants. There is no way that txiki is dictating to Pep what players he can and cant have. Pep is calling the shots on all aspects and Txiki is only his mouth piece to the board.

Also, just for the record i do not want rid of Pep, i am fully confident he will come good but he needs to become ruthless with some players and he needs to push for defenders in this window

Or is it too much spending? Perhaps one or two academy kids should be making their careers in our side.

If you saw today's teams on paper before the match, who would you have tipped?

We have a manager who cannot get the best out of this team, this very expensive team, then there really is only one person to blame.

Every time we loseI hear people calling for the heads of the spafia and everyone seems to avoid blaming Pep, well fuck Pep. Fuck 20 passes to make it to halfway, fuck signing Bravo who is obviously a mistake and then continuing to play him when the entire fucking world can see he's a liability, fuck playing centrehalves on the shoulder of faster, stronger centreforwards and offering almost the full half of our pitch in behind. Fuck playing 1 striker, two number 10's and trying to reinvent defenders as midfielders, fullbacks as centrehalves and every other fucking square peg he's trying this season.

Even when we fucking win I despise this brand of football, you don't need to have the ball for 65% of a game in order to be effective, but you DO have to have the ability to defend for the 35% you don't. Don't want to have your players practice tackling? Then you shouldn't be a fucking manager at all. Can't motivate your players to run through a fucking wall for you? Then you shouldn't be a fucking manager.

I have had it with this cunt and his belief that he knows fucking better than everyone else on god's green, he is blinded by his own ego and cannot see the shortcomings in this side and continues to play our team into the strengths of our opponents. Any cunt who has even heard of Leicester could have told you how to beat them, they have turned to absolute shit because they've been figured out...by everyone but Pep.

the shocking thing is that Txiki was just voted one of the top guys in his role by his peers
