Sorry mate I agree with most of what you write, but his weakness is Crossing the ball and Tackling??
No thank you
We need cover for Trent and our current backup option isn't good enough and Gomez the other option is likely to get Injured after 2 back to back games. I am worried about that position.
Anyone who has less than 5k followers on twitter will not have exclusives
All true, but I think we can do abit better,
Look in the SPL,Dutch,Turkish, Polish,South American, or even the US or Australian leagues, we must can find someone better
I used to think "give yer man a bye ball", but you're properly mental
There isn’t someone good enough to get in our reserve squad, let alone the first team.
Mbappe to Liverpool and now Bale to Cardiff
Gareth Bale is set to sign for his home town Championship Club Cardiff City.
It’s a headline that many will be shocked to read and doubt, but the Welsh football wizard is likely to start next season with his hometown club Cardiff City.
Bale, who lives in the Vale Of Glamorgan, had asked pals in the Cowbridge area where Bale resides with his wife and daughters to keep a lid on it whilst the Euro championships were on. Still, now Wales have departed the tournament, Bales intentions for next season can be revealed.
Johnathan Barnett, Gareth’s agent and Managing Director of the Stella football agency, is nearly finished in negotiations with Florentino Pérez, Real Madrid’s current president, in settling Bales last 12 months of his Spanish contract.
Once settled, despite rumours Gareth Bale will not be retiring from football, he intends to go out attempting to take his home town club, Cardiff City, once again back to the Premier League.
Cardiff City’s Board Of Directors are well aware of the player’s intentions and are in full agreement, as wages will not be an issue.
Although they have sworn to secrecy by the player and his agent, Bale fully wished to concentrate on Wales at the European Championships.
Rumours amongst Cardiff City supporters had several weeks ago started to circulate. However, they were quashed at the time by Cardiff City Mehmet Dalman on the Andy Campbell football show when the Chairman claimed he hadn’t even heard the rumours, despite the majority of football fans in South Wales had.
At the time, Dalman replied: “I haven’t heard the rumours, but Gareth is welcome at the club as long as he can accept 5k a week in wages.”
Bale, of course, has become a multi-millionaire, and money is certainly not his motivation, say close sources,

Not every great player automatically starts thier career playing in a European league or are sign by a European club when they are 8,9, or 10
Ian wright was playing his football for Bermondsey until 21, and then Greenwich Borough at £30 pw playing his football on Hackney Marshes before he was spotted and signed by Crystal Palace

Erling Haaland gives green light over £112m transfer as Dortmund ace picks next club

Dortmund superstar Erling Haaland has reportedly approved a move to Real Madrid this summer, with the La Liga giants hopeful that a fee of around £112million can be agreed for the Norway striker.
Haaland, 20, is the most coveted player in world football after a scintillating 18 months in Germany with Dortmund, where he’s averaged just shy of a goal-a-game in his 59 appearances for the club.
Manchester United, Chelsea and Manchester City are just three of the clubs desperate to sign Haaland but while the Premier League trio are open to battling for him this summer, they’re aware that a release clause in the forward’s contract means he’s available for £62m in 2022.

However, in a bid to beat their rivals to his signature, Madrid are willing to put up a far higher fee this summer in order to land Haaland and Marca claim the Norwegian has decided to move to the Bernabeu.

Haaland’s father, Alf-Inge and super-agent Mino Raiola visited Madrid earlier this year to discuss a move to the Spanish capital and the striker has now reportedly given the transfer the green light.
Dortmund are already set to sell Jadon Sancho to Manchester United for a fee of around £80m but they could fetch around £200m for the England star and Haaland in the same window.
Madrid have been lining up a deal for Paris Saint-Germain superstar Kylian Mbappe for the last two years but any deal for the Frenchman would have to shatter the world transfer record, which was set by the Ligue 1 giants when they signed Neymar for £195.5m in 2017.

The Spaniards have therefore decided to set their targets on Haaland instead and the Norwegian is said to feel he can revive

I truly don’t know if you realise that your example in the second paragraph doesn’t support your claim in the first.
Go on then - list all the top flight players that have been picked up in their 20’s having played exclusively in Australian & US domestic leagues.
I’ll give you a hint - not many.
I just hope he takes a less challenging job next time - Juventus or maybe, if he's really for a challenge, PSG.
Stick with what I said.. Some turn out great and some do not..
I can not answer that but neither can you tell me the ones that where not.
Beside I did,t not say that they have to be in thier 20's. I merely stated that If we looked we could possible find a better choice of player out there. the fact that a few of you latcehed on to the Australian league part of it makes me laugh as you seem to miss the whole point that I make, that we should look further and wider, all leagues over the world, non league and part time club. not every player shows their talent at an early age some are over looked like the fore mentioned Ian Wright...
There are many a reason why players do not make it to the big time. It does not mean that they are not talented enough to play there
It does not matter if it was the 70's,80's 90's or when ever.
The fact that I name one time it did is proof it can, and therefore could again
But the fact that you can name only one shows that it's extremely rare for it to happen, and that it would be correspondingly daft to adopt that as a strategy.
Yeah, I mean some people don't ever work and rely on winning the lotto to fund the lifestyle they really want.
Its not a tactic I'd take but it has happened to a few hundred people so it must be a good strategy
We actually did. This was his notable contribution to the season -making veggie fajitas with Quorn.
It is the second part of the statement - finding someone better - which we are having trouble with. Even if there is someone better talentwise, it is a huge jump in quality, pace, tactics, physicality from some of those leagues to our current squad. US is producing a lot of talent nowadays. However, most of them move to clubs in Germany, Netherlands, or RB Salzburg - spend 3-4 years either in youth teams or in lower level Bundesliga clubs or even their version of the championship, get acclimatized and then make their mark. It is very rare that someone from the Polish league (no disrespect meant) can join LFC and start performing at a high level immediately.
Again; funny how people interpret things, As I advocating that strategy alone
No, I think you’ve stumbled on to something that could revolutionise football - namely, we should consider employing people to look at players in other leagues and countries and recommend which ones might be worth signing.
I wonder what we could call them... scouts or something?
Maybe you should contact Michael Edwards with your idea.
Yes after all Our scout have such a great record of finding them.
Yes.... it’s almost as if there are fuck all top quality players secretly hiding away in second rate foreign competitions or local amateur leagues... just waiting for Liverpool FC to pluck them from obscurity...
I’m sure in the Hackney Marshes, there’s plenty of players that can read the game better than Joe Gomez and not need pace like his to paper over a lack of ability.
You should get yourself down there - pick some winners.
