Realistically is he going to be any better than Tel?

I think he'll be a different type of left-sided attacker TBH.

Arteta too. Tuchel saying freestyling is bad . Has football reached its ultimate mechanical and boring end stage?

No, it's the winning formula. PSG play football like fotball players want to play, and they've won CL twice in a row. You can win by playing beautiful football. It's just that if you're brick, you can also win by playing ugly, which is obviously easier.

I'm pretty sure i've seen variations of this same post most of the last window and so far this summer from Romano. It's almost as if he dusts if off, changes a few words and sends it out every couple of weeks or so

Almost as if he earns money from interactions the big fraud

I miss the old days when you just hear about a transfer when it’s announced

I remember turning up at WHL on a Boxing Day match and was surprised to hear on PA team change announcement that Steve Hodge was playing for us.

Similarly I remember going to Spurs v Exeter in the FA Cup (1981 apparently) and not having a clue who this Graham Roberts bloke was at left back.

Savino/Kudus is an interesting combo, as you said

- Both technical players, hold the ball well, can dribble past their man, typically require doubling up on, with a decent 10, them holding width, it should create room to exploit even against sit back teams.

From who I've seen us go after, I think ther team will be good, worry really is needing more goals from front 2 and at least one of the midfielders.

And this is where having Senesi and Van Hecke could be so important as they should be better able to spot whether one of our wingers is free or whether they have pulled players away to create space in the middle, and then to execute the appropriate through ball.

Regarding more goals from the front 2, my belief is that consistency of play will yield that. If Solanke and Maddison simply get a run of injury-free games, I think we shall see them getting healthy goal tallies, especially with supply from ball-playing defenders and wingers with the ability and instruction to beat a man and get a ball into the box

As a centreback I hated it when wingers went down the line and crossed it first time, gave little time to get in position and were often forced to face your own goal, loved fullbacks floating long crosses from 30 yards out.
