Well no as I was born in the 90s but it also isn't the 90s anymore so I wouldn't be looking to it for good tactical moves. Things are juuuuust a bit different now.

Depends on where you look I guess. ESPN had James listed as the signing of the season so far even though he missed a month of action.
This is in no trying to start anything but did they ever mention what it was that kept James out for most of December? I just remember hearing it's a minor issue and then he missed like the whole month.

Think he was only missing for 3 weeks but I think we had 5 or 6 games so it seemed like longer than it was.

At this point, self-evidently not much - it was simply a natural deviation that occurs when conversations take on a life of their own. Like the best conversations sometimes do. Perhaps I shouldn't have posted it. I'll restrict myself to complimenting James's bottom in future posts in this thread.

Hockey is also played on Ice?
What devilment is this
Milan, Inter, Parma and Juventus' teams in the 90s would walk the premier league as it is today.
Those teams were able to concede around 25 or less goals a season.
If you have a rock solid back 5 then over the years thats usually been the best platform to build a title winning side.
It helps to throw in a couple of superstars in midfield and a goalscorer up top of course.
Every single time i thought...golllaaazzziooo lol
Kind of (to both of you), when you look at the deep playmakers in the premier league era;
Jorginho -- Nowhere near as effective as in italy
Veron -- Flopped at two clubs
Arteta -- Moved deep when older
Scholes -- Moved deep when on his last legs
Carrick -- Almost overrated
Thiago -- Negative effect on the team
No doubt ive forgotten one or two...but my view is that so far this type of player has not 'worked' in the premier league.
When we look at the type of player who may be effective in the 6 position i wonder if it may be the Gbamin type...from what ive seen a well built player who can tackle, bring the ball forward and has a decent passing range.
If not someone like that, and a true playmaker then I think it would need to be either a very young player coached to play that role or someone who has experience in the premier league.
I wonder if James may actually become that player for us in a couple of seasons...but that doesnt negate my belief that we could do with a player to link defence and midfield today.

someone said that. I can’t remember who exactly but I’m *sure* they probably knew what they were talking about.
Trying to remember if they were a successful manager or not...
