And that wasn't good. 2 wins I think before we were relegated

Love it when the ex pros haven't got a clue about the game they played.

They're always unpredictable to a point. Look at Leeds at Liverpool, Brentford at Man City etc. I wonder what the other gamblers on here think but I tend to find things go more to form at this stage.

No idea but this one seems Arda than the last one.

I wouldn't say it's particularly Liverpools approach.

And the way Eddie uses subs to keep up intensity (See Murphy playing at least a part in every game), he'll get plenty of game time.

And if the right player at the right deal had been available I've no doubt they'd have strengthened elsewhere. When he signed I always saw him as a squad player until the summer with adaptability to player right across the line. Far too early to judge him imo.

I'm not sure we did with him. We'd been after him the window before and I honestly see him as a project.

Naturally. If he plays I want him to do well, however he's young and has shown at Everton he has talent, even a couple of near assists here. Give him a full pre season of our conditioning and bedding in.

Where as I'd like a Maddison type but someone who can do the press and intensity that has made us what we've become. I'm just not sure he can do that.

We can do all those formations now. Maddison wouldn't make us any more flexible on that score and while he offers an attacking threat greater than what we have I'm not sure if he can add off the ball.

Bilbao brought a few for the UEFA cup and that was before those games.

Shouldn't that be "You don't want them promoted. Why though ?"

Personally my tea making has came on massively in the last few years, it's all loose and without milk now, not boiling water and then leaving after taking the leaves out.

And it's what all fans do walking out after the match. We were lucky/unlucky there, we/they had X amount of great chances. Player Y has to score from that position etc

Can we bring Thauvins lass into the equation?

We broke it after Villa didn't we ? Edit ..Pata wins.

We will have a derby. If Leeds go down and Coventry or Luton come up, I think it's Burnley.

And yet Leicester didn't bottle it to win the title, like Liverpool did when Stevie G slipped or the time when Michael Thomas scored and Man Utd bottled it the year after we did . The year Blackburn won it Man Utsd weren't composed against West Ham on the final day, at the end they were just lumping it in and hoping something would fall, they didn't bottle it....... sometimes things just don't happen. Edit... Sorry Wullie that wasn't particularly aimed at you, just the whole bottling talk.

If Brighton had been closer to us then fair enough.

Rumours are Mac Allister is off to Liverpool (why isn't it MacAllister ?) and Rice is off to Arsenal.

It's a bank holiday weekend though and I'd imagine many will make a weekend of it anyway.

Which ones that ? We were linked with Michut I think.

To he fair to them whenever I've watched he'd them this season they've been the better footballing team but often lacking a finish with some poor defending.

I didnt even know they did. Never knew why new threads were opened after 1000 pages.
