That may be the rumour but no one knows how much we want.

Ashwortgs mistake leading to him being up to his neck in shit and Berrada up to his nose.........doesn't matter who's in it more, as for us, it strengthens our hand regarding Ashowrth moving to you.

They dont think that, they just defend their club at all costs no matter how wrong they are. They'd be laughing like fuck at us if roles were reversed.

What's the tempo like ? Are we talking post season friendly just for the money or is there a little passion there ?

Seeing the line ups I'm guessing the fee was dependent on the strength of line ups

Can only play behind closed doors games.

Oaktree must be owned by PIF then as I'm repeatedly told PIF were buying Inter and we were to be forgotten about or their feeder club.

What's the attendance ? It's how many people turn up to watch the game.......unless its Sunderland where its how many knew the game was on, knows where it is or happened to be in the area at some point that that day.

I think there may have been a question mark over how it might affect his playing style but I think how he played under threat of the ban answered that.

He already plays a leadership role on the pitch. It might be different if the plans that only captains can consult the ref comes into force and is adhered to.

Yes.

I quite like it dragging on because we are on the right side of it and it's not stopping us getting on with things.

Why should they be parachuted that high up ?

It does kind of insinuate that Man Utd went to him first instead of through us.

Ring ring......"HI Dan its Omar" "Hi Omar.... what's up ? Deal sorted?" "Not quite Dan....... Dan, do you remember a while back we had an email conversation that included details of you leaving Brighton etc?" "Ooooh let's think, I think so, I usually keep copies for myself" "Copies eh ? email them to yourself maybe......any idea of the address you'd have used" "Yeah yeah, Little Dan @Newc........... Awwww FUCK!!!! !!!!!"

Correct even with the mistake.

Why don't they just get Philips in with Ball as his no.2 and get it out the way ?

He knew even before you ! That IS ITK.

It was right at the start of the season, knowing an international break is coming and few of the forwards playing full games and those games were one a week. I don't think that's pushing them too much.

Re rotation.... and Barnes thats when he got injured. Willock out nearly all season cuts down the options as did Tonali's suspension, Longstaffs injury and Joelintons. We had a 16yr old keeper on the bench in Europe in September just to get numbers there.

The rotation thing. We did, but players got injured. Isak and Wilson were swapping almost game for game in, Barnes got injured while.playing instead of Gordon, Murphy instead of Miggy in Milan or do we want 5 maybe 6 changes per game ? Bonus fifth, that comes with not having to play inexperienced 17yr olds and players who are still injured and having a midfielder banned for most of the season.

Throw in the fact that it would be kind of embarrassing diplomatically to an ally and trading partner (someone who's invested probably billions in the country) that they've cheated and should be stripped of titles and punished severely within the sport.

Throw in that I'm sure Eddie said that part of the idea for this season gone was the he wanted Joelinton to play wide up front in some away games.

Can he rotate that fixed size squad if say 6,7 or more first teamers are out ?

Shots on target would say that a shot that trickles towards the goal from 40yds that the keeper literally puts his hat on is as good a chance as someone missing an open goal from 2 yds out. XG is a guide, not a conclusive picture. XG is just like coming out from the match and saying to your mate "we got lucky there, we won one nowt but they missed three sitters"
