So Carlos Forbes, deemed not good enough, scores 2 and assists against Barca! Couldn't make it up. We need a winger and pace.

Forbes did absolutely nothing when he was on pitch for us, so it’s a non argument, plenty of players move to other clubs and do well under different coaches. What did Cuhna do at Athletico? But he found his feet with us.


Time To stop look at every little issue and move on, right now we need a coach, who gives a toss what previous players may or may not have done for us if they were still here.

Have to agree with Sydney here, I mean do you trust your own eyes?! Cause I do and Forbes was frankly a complete waste of a shirt when he played last year! It's a catch 22 because had we spent the (think it was) £15m on him then we'd all have been on here asking why we bought a player he did literally nothing for us all season?! Vitinha is slightly different cause I actually blame Nuno for that one, I loved Nuno but he had his favs and that cost us some seriously decent players! Such is the way of things sadly ?

Sometimes players fit better in certain leagues and certain clubs - even with some managers players perform differently.

My question with our signings and sales if if we supposedly had such a good academy when Fosun brought the club off Morgan, why is MGW the only player of any note to come from it? The odd one appears in the first team squad for a while then seems to go out on loan never to be seen or heard of again.

Does anyone genuinely know what state is our academy in now?

Don't forget Bullys that Vitinho was young at the time and our cental midfield was Neves and Moutinho. Enough said! However, for some, the fact that he managed to score against our nemesis (Chorley) should have been sufficient to sign him permanently. If only!

Vitinha was probably signed as backup for moutinho, however it must have been difficult giving him minutes from the bench when we were playing games out with no.mire than one goal in the result. It's not as if we were winning 3 0 each week.
