  1. As if we're "not even entirely sure what the next step is" Ashworth in his office scratching his head.
  2. Played most of those games with a dead tree up front though.
  3. I don't disagree regarding what they're doing or why, I'm just saying in my extremely humble opinion, it's probably the wrong thing to do in this case (if it's happening). I think it needs to be done on a player by player basis. Unfortunately we were left in a position in January where Burnley had our pants down but let's hope we're not in that position ever again. I never actually want us to overpay for players, but we need to pay the asking price for the special players imo.
  4. But again, it's speculating on what his value actually is. If we value ASM at £40m how would you feel if we sold him for £30m? Someone used Man City as the example yesterday, whilst completely ignoring that their squad is good enough to allow them to walk away from players. We're not in that position at the moment. I'm pretty certain Man City massively overspent on players on their way to the top, but now they can be a lot more frugal.
  5. Is it though? Would it be better for the club to actually be stronger on the pitch, so we don't have to keep doing this every year? A higher league position makes it easier to attract players, it gives more prize money to pay for said players, more fan interest etc etc. I know it's a fine balance, but if (massive IF) the press are to be believed, trying to save ourselves £7m-£10m at this stage on a team changing player seems a bit counter-productive. But still, it's all speculation.
  6. Changed my team about 150 times now and think my first was the best
  7. So really only 1 place difference. How many points do you think that is?
  8. I’m probably the biggest Willock fan on here. He’s absolutely no where near Maddison’s quality though, come on
  9. That’s only because transfer fees have gone wild. It’s nothing we as a club can really control
  10. The last 10 pages on here just consist of silly little arguments, and a good percentage of those posts are from "new" members. What's going on?
  11. Why has Luke Edwards suddenly got 11 accounts on here?
  12. I guess Leicester technically were a top 6 club, but I assume you mean Sky's big six?
  13. Almiron gets incredible levels of stick on this forum. Are you going to pretend that you're the only one criticising him?
  14. Nobody tagging Greg in the "other" thread?
  15. We’ll pay £60m if that’s what it takes. He’s worth it.
  16. Nope, everywhere reports £85m
  17. Average house price was £50k when we signed Shearer
