Dokko

Clearly a competent and experienced chap at this level, but will take time to get right after years of stagnation. Wasn't impressed with his mackem comment like a lot, but do think he's been smarter since then. Give him a chance? Easy measure Tbf, he needs to grow the clubs income before player trading.

Christ. Gonna a rough day on here.

£70m is more than most clubs in the world are worth. Just incredible money for someone with 2 years left and not an established elite player. Palace are mad to turn that down, we are clearly desperate to be going that high. Been a disaster saga for us this one, which leaves us with nothing in the pot for a RW and Provably needing to sell again to avoid psr.

Up there with Boris' oven ready deals.

100% he's fighting for his future, and so he should be. I'd say Mitchell is in the same boat, he needs to make things happen or this window will be seen as a failure. I know most of the motion came from before his arrival, but he's had time to finish this off and hasn't delivered any xi changing targets so far. Best for them both to get along and make this work. I'm not sure Howe got on particularly well with Ashworth, but still managed to bring some great players in. Howe will be questioned about his loyalty to sub standard players, and the board/Mitchell will be questioned on why we've not been able to get rid and replace with better. With AS leaving, trippier throwing himself under the bus and players still missing, it's been quite a negative pre and start to the season. We need a bit of good news, a lift, and get the season going. A major signing would do that, but even landing Guehi after all this time and drama, wouldn't deliver that. It would be just OK, you did your job, finally. What next?

I hope we don't sign him, and never deal with parish or palace again. Hope they go down as well.

RIP Sven. Very dignified ending.

Broken AI, squad building is off. Reported as a bug on si forums.

Don't stick your dick in crazy. Quite simple really. He's fucked over his family, the club and the fans and deserves to lose it all, because it's not the 1st time so no lessons learned.

PL down £800m on spends comapred to last year and 1.6bn the year before. They've managed to strangle themselves to death.

I enjoyed that.

Shit line up. Wasn't working, made subs and even if we get beat from here kat least we fought for it. Wasn't the case either end of HT.

Different game since subs. Please remember this, Eddie. Be brave.

He has like. Playing for his place.

Better team since the subs.

Subs!

Injuries were an excuse, an easy out and a way to protect the manager. I've not changed that opinion, but Howe is going to have his work cut out to stay in a job this season if this is the best he can do with no excuses and PCP no longer protecting him. Big 2nd half, especially as they clearly want it more.

Well that went sour quick. Good start, thought we've got this then same old shit.

It's because I'm watching, isn't it?

Pretty good game of football. Lacking quality in areas but evenly matched.

Evanilson shouldn't be playing for Bournemouth. No way. They've got the best out of the solanke deal.

Wonder if the floodgates open on him and his past behaviour? Doesn't usually start at his age. wrong uns be wrong uns for life.

Could have died.

Stick £60m offer in for Branthwaite. Offer trippier in return. That would get palace moving, especially after today.

You in benidorm? If you find anywhere that does a good paella let me know. 👍
