Yes, he essentially signed him twice and has picked him over others repeatedly.
Don’t trust Ange’s talent ID even for a second.
Could try something different...Madders on the left, anything.
Funny he’s calling out Werner when he said this, what, a day ago?
"Cristian realises what he said ... A lot of what he said was good, some wasn't right and shouldn't have been done in public," Postecoglou told a news conference on Wednesday.
"We deal with these things in our own four walls. There's always issues we need to deal with. The same way I wouldn't criticise a player or anyone else, we shouldn't be doing that in a public sense
It’s terrible man management. Doesn’t matter if he’s ours or on loan. This is the start of players going against him100%, it’s very good man management. Also turns the screws on the higher ups too. Showing he needs reinforcements, but not reducing value of an asset we own.
I was against Maddison all along, but I can still understand signing him to some extent. But not only Brennan, but also Werner in a system where you want to keep the ball and aim to be dangerous in all situations?This is the biggest concern about Ange. His player ID is horrendous. The man thought Johnson, Maddison and Werner were good signings ffs.
Werner is a senior player with tons of experienceJohnson was worse than Werner
This absolutely it. All the issues we have are no different than last season. We aren’t improving m, we don’t have a plan b, I’m not certain we have a plan a most of the time.Lets be honest, without the first 10 games of last season he’s been well out of his depth. Its a matter of when hes sacked, not if.
Wow never heard this from Ange before. Good to hear it tbf, I love Ange but he’s been too nice to underperforming players so far for me. Time to ring in the changes!
We spent a bunch of cash in the summer on kids & Solanke. It was probably either Werner or no one because his wages were already accounted for and no loan fee or transfer fee knowing the bald man. Not sure who else is meant to be playing there, timo unfortunately, is meant to be like 5th or 6th choice.I'm a bit split about picking out Werner. I'm more annoyed at Ange or the club, whoever had the most influence, in the fact that we even re-signed Werner for this season and didn't try to bring in actual quality.
Ange is annoyed but it's like, what the fuck did you expect. I for one am not surprised at all if Werner has a bad or shocking game.
If Werner and Odobert were the alternative offered for say Eze or another top player who could play off the left. Then whoever came up with that plan and whoever signed off on that all need to walk and never be involved in football again.Ange’s repeatedly said that all signings are approved by him.
Werner’s essentially a poor man’s Brennan, who’s a limited player that chucks in with goals at times. Werner barely even does that. Neither can control the ball to save their life in a system that requires it, and Ange still wanted them.
Ange’s and Lance’s squad building needs to be seriously questioned.
