The jury is out. 4 players who have been out of favour this season. 3 of those have barely played for 2 months and a second division spanish player. Massive wages being poured in to this window. Over to Emery.

Surely these players are an improvement on Buendia, Jaden and Carlos?



Monchi Magic!
He's pulled some great signings with pedigree and reputation!
These are the names we've been expecting to bring in.
Certainly offensively.
Exciting times.

Disasi and Malen although not nailed on first teamers have played and contributed as far as I’m aware.

So what? Emery isnt his boss. Its like recommending you for a job you do a shit job but it would be my fault. You are the one accountable for doing the shit job. So in this case its  on monchi as for me he has done a poor job in the last two windows. He would have negotiated  the fee of 50m for onana and the fee for maatsen ( i think we over paid for both)

And this window if he fails to bring a center back in again i hold him responsible along with damien vigadamy. They are playing a game of roulette with our season. Sheer madness.

Only thing i blame unai for me is authorising loaning center backs e.g swinkels when we have literally no options to play there at present.

You really think Emery isn't in total control of everyone on the footballing side? I mean the people wouldn't have been hired without him saying so and if he thought they had done shit jobs, they wouldn't still be at the club. Every interview with Damian and Monchi is that all three of them have offices next to each other and they sit and go through the players together.

Aye, UE hasn't been slow to get rid of playing staff who haven't done what he's says, why would it be different for the admin staff?

Monchi has gone right down in my estimation. The situation in central defence is criminal. Like Heck, he is lucky Emery is a genius. Emery is papering over a lot of cracks at the club.

This kind of post from a few folk isn't going to age well if Diasi does now sign.

Cause I’m too messy and then I’m too fucking clean

What the original Monkey? I’ve just signed up for a month so I may check it out and see if 40 years later I actually have any idea what’s going on.
