His opinions are so bad they don’t even get people wound up enough to respond in the way people like Simon Jordan do, it’s just utter drivel.

hagridasp0 0 Posted February 2, 2022 Share Posted February 2, 2022 I wish we signed someone from Portugal, like Liverpool did with Luis Diaz. Porto are at the top of liga nos table and are still selling players. It's a good opportunity to grab some amazing talent. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Fish 12573 Posted February 2, 2022 Share Posted February 2, 2022 I think that with a new back line and a back line more in-keeping with Howe's approach to football, we'll not make so many cock ups. With a number 6 who is calm on the ball and good in possession the back line will be under less pressure and the attack will be better supported. Norwich and Leeds haven't improved their squads at all in the window. Honestly, it looks like Norwich are content to have a Premier League holiday every year or so. Leeds probably gambling that once their injuries calm down they'll be ok. Watford have done what Watford always do and gambled on a few young, cheap, foreign lads, but bringing in Hodgson might be shrewd. That said, if Hodgson was brought into any other team in the league I'd expect him to lift their results, but Watford... I dunno, might be ignorance, but I see them as a mercenary group who may not take his organisation on board. Burnley have gambled on Weghorst, but swapping one big striker for another one, doesn't seem to solve the problems they've got across the pitch. Everton have a really unbalanced squad, and I don't think signing two number 10s is great business. Unless I've misunderstood Ven de Beek's role? They're still pretty ponderous in the middle, in my eyes. Norwich, Watford and Burnley for the drop. 6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I totally agree with Burnley & Norwich but I think with Hodgson in charge of Watford they have become a bit of a wild card. He is notoriously well organized but will the team listen to him.
