Celtic are basically a charity case, they benefit from being the only decent team in that league, allowing them to vacuum up Champions' League money in perpetuity. It's a positive feedback loop. Swap us and Celtic and we'd be every bit as successful. They deserve to be derided and laughed at.
I think York City would beat Sevco presently, terrible team, still being run on finances they don't have.
Nice to see you give a positive opinion of a new signing. Certainly looks to be impressive in his brief cameo, and deserving of praise. Just a pity that the main reason for your praise is that he played for Man U U21s. Can you not give ANY comment or praise to the 2 players who got in either team of the week (SW) or Player of the Month (CH). You neither created, nor contributed to any thread on those two awesome achievements. Sorry but ....
I mentioned the U21 game against Barnsley because that's the game that led me to track him in a way. When he went to Bolton or he played against MK Dons and made the move to Celtic. That's how things go, right? I'm very positive about the club. I just don't let things go over the top. That's just how I am in person. I don't go over the top about many things. Go out for something to eat and if I get asked by someone how it was, alright will be the answer. I think a lot of people are like this. On Hourihane. I say a lot. Very nice player but there's improvements. I say these highlighted improvements aren't helping and he needs to improve them to get into the inational squad. It's how things go. On Winnall I was one of those that said he should play at Preston and then Wolves. I see him positively. He plays a role that all the other strikers don't want to play. Do I think Saidy will put direct presure on him? No. Indirectly yes because Kent can play that role and I say that many times with research I've done. It's a big area for the club. If you listen to PH he will often talk about defence and defence responasbility. Winnall playing deeper fits into this IMO. He will drop onto the oppo's deeper midfielder and stop that player getting the ball. This can often be the plyer that dictates the play for that team. It annoys me on here that I'm seen by a few been negative almost. Most of the time on here though I've been seen too posative. I just post what I see and it creates debate. I don't know why, don't really get overly fussed about that if honest. Just posting my opion to others so they can read and say what they think. Things can always be improved and how I watch sports means I like to look at this. I was listening last time to something and it was mentioned that pep guardiola also thinks this way so it can't be a bad thing. What happens if you place your players in a different way or what happens if you change that whole team.
To be fair I've never seen your views as overtly negative. You have your obsessions we all do just sometimes you follow yours a bit more closely than is perhaps healthy.
The only problem is, all your 'improvements' are under 21's from Man United, and you consider them 'improvements' purely down to what club they play their youth football for.
Don't I? I think you're trying to say I don't find fault say because a player comes from a big club, that's not true. If you honestly think I will not saying somehting about a player that's at fault at Barnsley because of that then that's not true.
Really? You would be jizzing in your pants had we got Armstrong from Chelsea or Man Utd, but instead you slated him and was disappointed because he came from Newcastle.
I see a player that would and should have been good. I think people look for scapegoats and he was the big name player at the time and it was pinned on him. Not fair on him really but that's how it goes. Think under Hill in the Perkins (he'd play istead of) Drinkwater, O'brien Butterfield Vaz te midfield he'd have been a star. I have my opions on a few things and that time was one. I don't think Danny Wilson was very good and he didn't look after players like Frimpong well enough. FYI I think He's a Chedwyn Evens away from yet another failure and even arguably the best striker in L1 might not save him.
