Makes me laugh those who think it will be easy to replace RDZ because of our succession planning and recruitment. Yes, we upgraded from Cucurella to Estupinan, and Potter to De Zerbi - BUT the hole left by Mac Allister and Caicedo has been bloody hard to fill. As people keep pointing out on here...
Saying what was spent in the Summer ignores the fact that when he took the job the team he looked at included Mwepu, Trossard, Mac Allister, Caicedo and Sanchez. Have they been replaced adequately to his mind?
Despite the talk about the benefit of the winter training break in Dubai on last season's results, the first match back was the absolute stinker at Charlton. We seemed to improve after that!
Win the next match and we are back to level on points with last season.
