2019/20 Marcel Brands

[canuckblue]

Good thing there's loads of time to get them up and running before the season begins.

Not like every man and his dog knew about what was needed a year ago.

He wasn't here a year ago.

I’ve already answered we need cbs ! It’s not good no but your posts are not gonna make any sense if these areas are addressed by Thursday night

Right so you admit it isn't good. Therefore he deserves the criticism coming his way.

He's going to end up with more excuses made for him than Siggy.

His job is to deliver the signings the manager and him agree on. He's brought two in and now every player he brings in won't have played a minute with the team before the season begins. That's not optimal is it?

There are a myriad of reasons for that though.

Don’t remember these being around in Martinez first season because it looked like we had a plan.

I remember them being around in Howard Kendal’s first stint as manager until he turned it around.

Next question is it Brands? Is the transparency there for us to say it’s him. Not too sure, Silva keeps saying the board.

 

[Efcjake]

You can’t force players to sign for you when you want them to.

Do you suggest binning interest in each player who doesn’t come back to us with a resounding yes until one does? When did we sign Keane last season?

I won't advocate pissing away an entire summer on a centre back we discovered because he scored some headers at the world cup.

Mina has given us the run around and only recently have we been linked with other options. It's daft putting your eggs in one basket and I thought with Brands we were bringing someone in who could deliver results.

The poison has been there for a long time, was just subsided during that season cos things were going well, look at how much venom was aimed at Moyes for slow starts for 5-6 years straight

The board is easy to blame because it doesn't assign any one person accountability and throw them under the bus for the press.

It will have been obvious to him since the day the players turned up if he knows his footy.

Regardless of the reasons he's the one to answer for it and he is expected to deliver and frankly so far he hasn't.

Yes because aside from being PSV’s DOF he is also the DOF of every single other team in every league in the world.

We made contact wrt Mina before the World Cup as it turns out. I don’t think the press have a clue who we are talking to. We’d been talking to Digne for 2 months according to the player.

How do you know we’re putting all our eggs in one basket?

If it was Walsh behind us not yet having a defender in he would be getting tarred and feathered down County road.

Didn’t silva want to assess the players?

Doesn’t Silva identify the areas he wants to strengthen?

Source???

Have we been seriously linked to anyone besides Mina? That's how.
