Vincenzo Italiano isn't quite nominative determinism, but he deserves to manage that team

There's an italian striker called Matteo Stoppa but he was selfish and plays as a striker.

Considering the headlines footballers keep causing don't forget Jizz Horncamp Also if Pogba's performances are all the fault of the manager and players around him then explain Bruno.

Blackburn had a defender called Nicky Marker in the 90s.

Hansi Flick used to play in midfield and I bet he had a trick or two

Truly great footballers can lift up the team around them - they're not going to rescue them every time, but you don't ever think for a minute Pogba is going to score a couple of second half bangers when the chips are down, or use his influence to change the direction of a game. Stevie G was surrounded by utter dross half his career and is still considered an all time great midfielder - the amount of times he pulled us out of the poo poo by sheer will and skill. Suarez had a lot of that about him too.

French Keeper - Dominique Dropsy. Apparently he wasn't as bad as his name suggests

I think the free transfer Arsenal paid for budget Moroccan Ronaldo was also a terrible deal

There must be a german/scandi goalkeeper Klanger or somesuch

Honestly if you involved the kids that they spent less than a million pounds on that never amounted to anything there could be 50+ bad transfers in the last decade.

Now I'm remembering Jose Antonio Reyes costing £20m in 2003 money and then giving an interview in Spanish that everyone at Arsenal was too gay and getting swapped for Julio Baptista, who was also shite

They did if you include the ridiculous wages a bunch of Arsenal's cruft were on to be on the fringes of the starting 11.

Strawman posted:Pogba joins Jozy on the list of the funniest poo poo signings because he motivates posts like this. He’s going to join a team that isn’t Manchester United and be great Also Bruno has been poo poo this year as well, aside from Leeds and Atalanta. Man U is a very very bad team with enough star power to muscle results.

He's not been nearly as good as he was last year. He started off the season on form but has dropped in the last month or two

Yeah just like pogba, I would take Bruno on my team in a heartbeat, he’s an amazing player he’s just not been great this year. Man U is a shitshow where good players go to die, I’m so mad Sancho signed there

Apart from trying to play like a second striker all the time instead of linking play in midfield he's been fine and involved in/starting anything good we've managed to do. Singling Bruno out as "poo poo this year" in a team that's been starving the attack of any supply/stability (while trying and failing hilariously at possession football in midfield with McFred) is loving baffling.

Bruno was never going to average a goal/assist nearly every game like he did for his first season and a half so his form this season is definitely a dip but it's a dip from a pretty absurd level.
