2019/20 Marcel Brands

[Lanolin]

On paper I’m happy with the players we’ve brought in so far, but where I think brands deserves credit is the structuring of the deals. If nothing else he’s made sure we’re not saddled with people on 5 year deals.

Hold my hands up, I was concerned with this fella. I even called him our mortal coil.

Sorry Marcel, I was wrong, but you still dress like you’ve got an audition for the X factor you whopper.

Must admit Brands fully redeem himself this window. Addressing the core failure on the pitch with relatively low transfer fee. Hard not to feel happy at the moment.

getting rid of deadwoodS will be a perfect window.

To a large extent yes mate, but a black mark for not nailing Gabriel. A decent recovery though.

 

[Neiler]

Where I’d say fair play here is getting Doucoure, he waited a year to get the man he wanted, you have to admire the courage of that conviction without blowing his load.

A small quibble, but does this muppet have to crowbar himself into every signing photo? Would much rather see them shaking hands with Ancelotti!

I presume it's to put his face around. If he is the one doing the deals , phoning, travelling and meeting players and their agents they will recognise him. Small but probably important bits.

Noticed that to, never leaves a good photo opp behind does Marcel, to be fair this one is his and fair play, really happy with Doucs, so he’s welcome to the victory lap.

Yeah. Fair enough, especially on Doucoure. It's just a bit annoying!

where are all the bed wetters now who were crying and moaning for weeks about how we haven't signed anybody.

12m for James Rodriguez. 12m.

 

[aazak]

No wonder we could afford all those billboards!

He is on the photos because it's his job.
Ancelloti is their to coach them into winning trophies.

Probably best wait for them to actually play some games before we decide that hadn’t we?! I’m happy with the signings in theory but it will only be a good window if the players make us a much better side. I was happy with Sandro and Pickford when we signed them.

He reminds me of those men modeling jumpers in the catalogue
