One can hope that those players we spent enormous sums on this year simply cannot be that bad second season.
I used to watch Leverkusen a lot, and Flo and Frimpong were simply unplayable under Xabi. Honestly, both were brilliant, week in week out. The energy and the goals they scored, many times in injury time, were superb. This year, both have been distinctly awful. Nothing like a couple of years ago. Whose fault is that, theirs, the manager, a general malaise at the club? I don't know, but performances looked that next season are simply unacceptable.
Kerkez looks like a headless chicken, yet last season he was superb. Same league, same opposition, so what gives?
Isak - I personally think the lad is a diva and overestimates his own talent. That's my opinion.
We'll have Bradley back, and hopefully someone can figure out for good why he keeps breaking down, and fix it.
And Leoni and Jacquet.
Macca seriously needs to get his fookin' head together because he's been a bag o' shyte this year.
Grav too, get back to what you did last year mate.
Gakpo - just fook off lad.
I'd like to think, or to hope, that some of the likes of Danns, Bajcetic, Morrison, Nyoni or whoever just take a miracle leap over the summer and maybe fulfill the hype about them.
I don't think this will be a big summer spending window, not with the WC going on, so I fear we'll start the new season with a bunch of players who are older and still playing the same shyte under the same turgid manager.
