Dokko

He was very average last season. Played far too many games, and suffered from not having a regular position. This season, with a proper manager, he seems to have found his feet and doing this biz at that level. As we know though, that level is very low, especially this season. He'll be a prem player though, no doubt about it.

8 months out and Miley was one of the best players on the pitch last night, whilst making his debut.

I'd imagine we're the only ones in any position to offer them good money for him in January with other clubs doing their main business in the summer window and no one in desperate need for a cb at the top end, which means, any offer we put on the table should be considered very carefully as the next opportunity will be the summer with 12 months to run. Then there's the added threat they could be in the championship by then as well. I'm not arsed either way. If a deal can be done quickly, before the window even opens and at a reasonable price, then I'm still a fan. Anything other than that and there will be cheaper alternatives in Europe we can go for, with money to spare in other positions.

Worse down south.

Kelleher in the summer to replace pope? Seems a more Howe type keeper and the lad is making noise about leaving Liverpool to be no1 somewhere. Reckon Given would endorse the move. Got mamadashvili coming in the summer as well.

Hall man. Wasn't good enough to start u till March. Ffs.

This popped up on linkdin. Seems it's a year old now, so no doubt a repost but worth it for those who haven't seen it.

It does actually (Rodri especially)

Nailed on to finish his career at Sunderland

He's started to get backup to speed post injury, and we just happen to be much better for it.

We all thinking the break has come at the wrong time for us? Suppose had we lost then we'd be saying it was bad to break and stew. So basically int football is shit either way. I'm going to go with it's good for us. Planned break to Saudi.. Some nice warm weather, bit of sun and chance to keep working on those small changes.

Well I hope not, of course. Still think they get luck in these harder games more than most. Usually in that the in form opposition just don't turn up.

One of the worst ref performances I've seen in a long time. If it's incompetence then fair enough, shite and we move on. Felt far more sinister than that.

Him still there in the summer and palace relegated would be funny as fuck. Still think thry have too much about them though. Weird how their manager has dropped of a cliff though, he looked proper naughty coming in, with 2 players or so away from a very strong xi. Olisie is a huge loss. No doubt sbout it.
