Pasquale for King Posted September 17, 2020 Share Posted September 17, 2020 27 minutes ago, Cruyff said: They were a big club for many years. I think they've falling away a bit in the last decade though. Last 3 seasons they've finished 7th, 9th and 13th. I remember them as the biggest club in Romania along with Steaua. Really familiar then, he will know the demands of the fans then. First choice this season, next season maybe not. A bit like Ozturk, Augustyn, Rossi to an extent.

Actually partly agree there. We need to be building for the future but his priority was width and back up centre backs in my opinion. Players who were fit and ready to play. Always tricky attracting the quality of players we’d all like when we’ve just been relegated but you never know, he may have unearthed a couple of gems.

Spending money they really don't have to win promotion. Which of course will make it all the more delicious when they finish 14 points behind us in 2nd and lose their play-off. Beautiful. Or, actually 2 points behind us with a game in hand and the season is called early. I wonder if they would push for reconstruction? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
