    If you could go back in time, to the summer of 2006, what three things would you tell your manager to do differently?

    Back to the Future 2710

    e.g. a Chelsea fan could tell Mourinho not to play Cech against Reading away.

    Credit to Batman he is the inspired thread starter. <Ale>

    * Tell Wenger to rest Thierry Henry for the the entire month of August.

    * Tell Wenger not to bring on RVP vs. Man Utd at Home, as he would knacker his foot for the rest of the season.

    * Tell Wenger and the coaching staff to concentrate more on set piece attacking and defending. It has cost us goals and points.

    Their as been many a games this season where a no non-sence midfielder would be just what we needed, and since we didn't buy one then he would have gone prefectly.

    Though at the time i was very happy with the club selling him.

    Good thread, batman <Ale>

    1. Buy another DM, just for good measure (coz Cambiasso, Vieira & Dacourt are all going to get injured together, and thats gonna cost us the CL - who would have thought!!).

    2. When you sell Martins to buy Ibrahimovic, a lot of fans are going to ridicule you (including me)... we are sorry, in advance!

    3. Don't waste money on buying Mariano... buy a youngster called Rosina instead Wink

    4. And Sampdoria are so desperately asking for Recoba? Give him to them, infact exchange him with that unheralded youngster called Quagliarella.

    ok

    He is very passionate though - he should manage England Laugh

    1) Buy an extra striker + Gareth Williams and/or Lee Williamson now - don't wait for the transfer window.

    2) Play 4-5-1/4-3-3 this season as we have some good wingers.

    3) Play Priskin now - you don't have to have 27 years playing in the reserves to acclimatise to English football.

    1) sign an emergency loan keeper who doesn't give away a soft goal in injury time in the fa cup at old trafford (this is harsh on kiraly really, because other than that he was fine...it was just a crucial mistake)

    2) don't play agbonlahor on the wing and young up front, when they are so much better the other way round

    3) use your magic rejuvinating powers on berger earlier in the season, preferably before all the going off on loan hoo-hah

    3) Go down to London Wasps and buy Cech a scrum cap.

    1) Should've kept Routledge as part of our 1st team squad.

    2) Sold Defoe to Pompey when they offered £12m - and beaten Bolton to Anelka's signature.

    3) Switch to a 4-3-3 to make it easier to bring Huddlestone into the team Ale

    1. Not sold Owen. His RM form showed that he was still a great player

    2. Signed Hargreaves for £2.5million two summers ago when we had the opportunity

    3. Killed Graeme Souness after he finished playing football for us.

    If you could go back in time, to the summer of 2008, what would you tell your manager to do differently regarding transfers?

    Back to the Future 2710
    e.g. My friends daughter, she is only 2 and a Liverpool fan, said she would tell Rafa not to sign Keane and use the money to sign Valencia and Pavlyuchenko. Then sell Babel and sign Nasri.

    Keane - don't sign
    Dossena - don't sign
    Babel - sell
    = £37m

    Valencia - £14m
    Pavlyuchenko - £14m
    Nasri - £12.7m
    = 40.7

    But shes only a kid, what does she know about football yet.
