Mike Dean to ref

I'll keep repeating it - normal clubs don't pay fees up front. We won't be spending £25m of our January budget on a £25m player. Stop getting hung up on it

Are we only signing 1 player then?

There's also no way we pay fees up front anymore. A £25m Trippier might take £5m out of the budget in January.

You're still thinking like Mike Ashley. If he helps keep us up he'll prove to be a bargain.

Ha yeah, I wasn't trying to disprove you. Just thought it was an appropriate picture in the circumstances

It's pretty clear that Lascelles and Schar are a terrible pairing. I'd always go Schar and Fernandez over any of our other defenders.

That could be the score tbf

agreed. Get a couple of loanees in and then rebuild next summer.

Wilson getting into the box there realising that nobody else wants to make the effort to help him out.

It’s just so depressing. Feels like it’s going to be years until we can actually celebrate the takeover properly.

Goal difference not looking great now either, at least we’ve got some easy games coming up

It’s fine though isn’t it @Thomson Mouse

From the bench?

Unrealistic fans, expecting us to come here and not get battered. We’re fine.

I honestly thought the win last week would give us enough confidence to come here and give these a game. That’s what has changed from last week, the potential momentum a win gives.

Nope, but stringing some passes together, creating a few chances, at least looking organised would be good. We’re playing a team whose fans thought their manager was under pressure for how bad they’ve been for weeks. We’re not playing Liverpool.

Knee jerk after watching 2 and a half years of utter shite football. Ok.

Sure you’ve quoted the right post?

Weird subs

The problem with relegation is we’ll probably have to keep half this team and I really can’t stand the sight of most of them anymore. Bruce-esq performance this so far. Change the midfield ffs Eddie.

Maybe just need to accept that the majority of our players are just bang average. We need 6 or 7 new faces in January otherwise we’re done.

I’d rather have Hendrick on than Willock

Careful now
