Made up with the manager. Only Enrique would have made me happier and that was never happening.

Let yers know on everything else close of business September 1.

Interest is mounting up in Macca and Curtis now, properly. Nyoni has already taken Curtis's position for me in the squad if the latter is sold, but Macca I dont think last year was a down year for him like a lot of the others. His legs were never there to begin with, but now that they have gone, it's giving Fabinho all over again. Personally thought he was always overrated and has had purple patches and stinkers equally, without being consistent.

To say this is bad is an understatement. FSG ain't no saints, but they've run the club as well as you could ask in this era of shady owners. It was always going to be on the cards once FSG shipped the idea of selling up a year or so ago, as so few people in the world have the funds to actually buy the club.

I said and with hindsight that the most important thing this summer was getting in Iraola and getting rid of dumb and dumber in Hughes and Edwards. I genuinely dont trust them two to get Iraola what he wants and when the new folk take over next season, we can have a fresh restart with a new sporting director etc then.

As for now the team will get better as they get used to playing how he wants us to play. Certain individuals are struggling for example szobos as he adjust to learning how to play in a two as it exemplifies he's weaknesses but hes a smart player he will eventually get it. Wirtz looks much better already but still need more from him. The other two midfielders I just dont see it. Macca is finished at this level for me and Gravenberch has been found out and needs to realise he can be a superb 6 but even then he still needs to improve as he cant pass a football still. The fullbacks are an area of weakness but we already knew that. All in all a disjointed side that is clearly in transition and will need a clear plan from new football people once the previous regime have left the building.

Recency bias and all despite having a poor season previously he is still a good player. We need numbers and he covers the entire front line. Baffling getting rid of him.

Edit: counter argument. We gave him a stupid insane contract and if we are being honest he is a great rotation option at the top end of the league but not good enough to take the next step and cement himself as one of the best. So getting silly money for him makes sense.
