Marcel Brands

[JLW]

We have made some shocking appointments at this club over the years but this fella could well be right up there with the worst.
4 days to get the squad together to competitive for the cups and European qualification.

If the rumours are true we are looking at needing about 5 players and at least 3 need to be first team players.

Tick tock Marcel

Clueless bellend

 

[ToffeeMonster]

If we want to sell him then ok; 100m...done.

Then we buy a young RB, CM, and CD for max 20m.

We struggle through the season even if we finish bottom half.

End of the season we are rid of Sigurdsson, Delph, Tosun, and whoever else contract expires and that saves us a shedload of wages; then we go into the market and strengthen.

Brands gets paid millions to strategise and yet I'm a nobody and I get it...

Jesus Brands wake the F up!

the market closes soon, there wouldn't be enough time to scout and secure these signings.

 

[Blue83]

He'll be 33 and we won't have signed his replacement

I tell a lie, Seamus will probably be 38 by the time Brands replaces him

 

[Bedfordblue]

Fingers crossed the ‘The Architect’ pulls something out the bag by the time the window closes.
If he can shift James and Kean for profit (or at least not a loss) and bring in a few quality surprises for the 1st team in positions we need competition (if not outright replacement), think it will be fair to say he’s earned his corn.

If they do their scouting properly they should. 20m for three players is buttons so will be hungry youngsters.

We don't want first-team players; just improve the bench for now.

Mid to lower table finish and then next season we challenge.

 

[ToffeeTim]

If he hasn't signed a right back by the end of the window, then he must be sacked.

Maitland Niles does not count either. He isn't even a right back.

 

[GoodisonRoadSupperBarWool]

No more arsenal casts offs. Honestly fed up signing crabs from arsenal

 

[Shibbywiggles]

Would love to know what the plan is. The way Dias links appeared out of thin air today has to indicate stuff is happening outside the media… hope there’s something right back shaped in the works too.

 

[sageyefc]

He’s only had 3 seasons to sign a right back, criminal if we’re having another season of Coleman as first choice

 

[BlueStevie35]

Why is it so damn hard to sign a RIGHT BACK, not a player that can play there in emergency, but an actually trained in that position right back. Jesus Christ this guy is peeing me off

Right back is most important, took him less than 2 months in the job to get Baines’ replacement, why they hell has it taken 3 years to get Coleman’s

i haven’t a clue! lol

This is how I currently see our team (provided that Kean and James are departing).
Lack of RB is criminal, I am struggling to comprehend that we have still failed to replace Coleman! Drop off in quality from First XI to reserves is astounding as well. Let’s see what Marcel can come up with - my guess, not a lot.
