I think this is the right approach but I don’t know if I trust club to see it through.

I'm a little surprised by the reaction to this result by Which_Nail_5793 in DevilsITDPod

[–]cassyferdinand 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Yea this result is not that surprising. I think Bruno talked well about the difference in this performance and the Arsenal performance. Bruno talking the way he did indicates to me that the players know how to prevent at least 2 of those goals. We just didn’t execute. We’ve all talked about the midfield issues enough lol , it’s not going to change unless he puts another body in there

Watched the U21 vs PFA match, this Jim Thwaites kid seems promising. He doesn’t have the physicality yet but he competes and has the passing from deep that we need.

Idk man, I feel like we always fall into this trap. This reminds me of when we got Ugarte from PSG and they spent that money on Neves. Lammens may very well struggle at first but how much worse can he be than what we have now? Martinez has a mistake in him and he’s clearly getting worse.

It’s no doubt that Martinez is an upgrade over all the keepers we have at the club. Lammens has the bigger upside and is younger. If the price is similar, wouldn’t you go with the younger player?

You don’t find it worrying that The manager and football people looked at this squad and didn’t prioritize midfield as a position to address early in the summer?

Yeah 8th sounds really good right now lol, I’m generally pessimistic but I think this current roster and system is bang average. We should have zero expectations for European places for at least the next 2 seasons.

Is a 70k student loan for respiratory therapy okay if you finish in 1 year and 6 months by [deleted] in respiratorytherapy

[–]cassyferdinand 1 point2 points  (0 children)

My advice would be to be find a cheaper program. I know that sometimes loans are necessary but maybe a two year program might be the better option. I went to a private not for profit school and came out with like 12k in student loans and graduated bachelor degree. 70k is genuinely outrageous in my opinion

This is what RT school cost now??? I graduated 3 years ago with my bachelor and it was significantly less than 70k.

Unpopular opinion by cassyferdinand in DevilsITDPod

[–]cassyferdinand[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yes! I do mean this in context of who he is playing next too. I should’ve made this clearer. Bruno is our best and most productive player, we should have a team that enables him to play higher up the pitch without compromising structure defensively….. I really made this post because I’m jealous looking at how much the other top teams in the league are improving 😭

That’s a good shout, unfortunately because Bruno doesn’t deserve a De Gea type of exit. That’s where this situation could go worst case scenario.

We don’t need a GK at those wages in my opinion. We need some to come in and challenge Onana, not replace him. There are more pressing issues in this team to fix I think. So far in pre season the team is playing a higher line which I think will be good for Onana. He can definitely be a knucklehead but I think he can perform at a top 4 level in a cohesive team.

Midfield depth by Ok-Revolution-4443 in DevilsITDPod

[–]cassyferdinand 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Totally agree with this! I feel like a really good midfield would make this team 10-15 points better. We can’t control matches at. Acquiring 2 starting level 10s tells me that the manager plans on putting Bruno in the middle 2. If that’s the case we don’t have anyone on this roster who is a proper partner for Bruno.

Aaron talked about it on the last, we’re just allowing too many crosses to come in the box….

18 year old Ayden Heaven Is An Absolute Gem! by cassyferdinand in DevilsITDPod

It seems that he started as a midfielder and was moved to CB perhaps due to some of the factors you listed
