I agree the squad is stronger this season but still unbalanced and has been for some time. Some really good points were made but all I can say is that more often than not we are not good to watch and it's painful at times. Football is about the here and now as well as what it might be in 3 years time. The best players will leave if the conditions aren't right.
Maignan is trading off his name. Hems atrocious on crosses and was at fault for two of the goals in the pre season friendly - one in particular came from him being stuck to his line.
Excellent article as always from you . Spot on in your analysis Sporting Directors have to take a lot of the blame especially for the Summer window how many times did Maresca ask for Centre back and defensive cover words obviously fell on deaf ears 🤔

The voice of common sense... Well written. A really fair balance

Still a better Keeper than Sanchez ALL day long!
