RM on AA: "We did it a lot with Joel Piroe at Swansea, he started as a nine and played as a 10 for us last season. Adam is not too dissimilar to him in terms of technical ability and understanding the game."
Wow. RM will know more about these 2 players than I do, but I would never have thought of AA as a creative 10. The main attributes I've seen are pace and stamina. Not really the attributes of a classic 10. |  | |  |

Adam Armstrong runs fast and then gives the ball away.
Hardly creative.
He is a totally different player to Joel Piroe. |  |

The key postions in our squad:
No.1 McCarthy (or Bazunu)
No.9 Armstrong (or Mara)
There really is no plan to build a successful team. Meanwhile, we just hoover up teenage midfielders, presumably because of their potential resale value. |  |

Replacement for Alcaraz, JWP, Lavia, etc? |  |

That’s the young lad from Man City, plus Smallbone. | |

Exactly... I want to get behind the team and manager but at the moment it just feels like we're going to struggle next season as we look so weak in two crucial areas. | | | |

The reason we have this manager is because he’s a cheap option and wont rock the boat.

It’s a false economy.
He won’t be a cheap option if as I suspect, we sack him in November. | |

The reason we have this manager is because we are trying to copy Man City in every possible way except the budget. I'm only surprised our new home kit isn't sky blue. | | | |

I can’t wait for Russell to prove Pat wrong, overly negative about everything, we’ll be up there this season as long as we get a proper goalie. |  |

I’m not overly negative about everything at all.
We have some very good players.
But Russell Martin is another Ankersen vanity appointment which is destined not to work, as we simply do not have the squad for his style of play, and he won’t be able to get rid of the players he needs quickly out of the door to fund replacements. | |

With his track record of success what can go wrong.
I always judge it on with his previous club said. 90% of the swans fans hated the tippy tippy football that goes no where and were glad to see him gone .
Hopefully he will be the new Strachan but when he dosent know who will be here come the first game I’m not sure he’s got much of a chance. | |

He is a totally different player to Joel Piroe. |
Stats over last two seasons:
Adam Armstrong- 4 goals in last 68 games
Joel Piroe - 41 goals in last 88 games

I would have to concede that Adam Armstrong’s games were in a higher League.
They are totally different players in the way they play though; I find it unfathomable that Mr. Rustyball thinks they are so similar.
Just seems to me he is preparing us for Piroe to sign for a promotion rival. [Post edited 18 Jul 2023 8:23]

Adam Armstrong is a proven championship goalscorer..
I am happy to give him a chance at this level..
Piroe has not got anywhere 28 goals in a season.. | |

The report says AA played 'deep' in the friendly. Yes, so deep no wonder I didn't spot him the whole game. | |

The giving the ball away happens at his attempt to control the ball from a pass!!
His 1st touch is absolutely atrocious. Brings a certain quote by Alan Pardew to mind!! |  | | |
