Dokko

He's been good for them, you think he gets a move either way, if not another team should be interested.

£15m is a bargain. I'm back in at that price.

Jet lag is for fannies who live on planet soft cunt.

The daft thing is, he would benefit from more game time before the euros since he's been out ages and rusty AF. Currently he's having a holiday and watching the euros from home like the rest of us.

Everyone on here had written off pope before he joined, saying he wasn't an improvement on dubs. Ramsdale is the best English keeper, but do think we can do better on the continent for less money and not putting money in the bank of a team who want 2 of our star players.

23 with Willock, then there's Gillespie as 3rd choice keeper, but not worth mentioning tbh. Alex Murphy, Kuol & Ashby to add some numbers, you'd also have Lascelles till at least Jan.

Karius, Dubravka, Dummett, Lascelles (Jan), Kraft, Ritchie, Targett, Lewis, Hayden, Murphy, Almiron, Fraser & Wilson all need to go this summer. Longstaff has one more season to prove his worth, or he goes next summer. GK: New (£35m) RB: Tino CB: Schar CB: Botman LB: Kelly (free) CM: Joelinton CM: Bruno CM: Tonali LW: Gordon RW: New (£50-60m) CF: Isak GK: Pope RB: Trippier CB: Tosin (free) CB: Burn LB: Hall CM: Miley CM: Longstaff CM: Anderson RW: Minteh LW: Barnes CF: New (£20-30m) Then there's Willock if he ever stays fit. £100-110m spend, which we should be able to do, with not much in return, maybe £50m (most of it on Murphy, Almiron & Wilson) and hopefully this is the end of having players no one wants and we should start trading a little better.

3mins to make a decision is ruining football (among many other things) they need to have a timed window, and if they cannot make a decision on say 30seconds, then the decision made on the pitch stands. If they can't do that, then they need to scrap it.

Hmmm. Got to agree, unfortunately. Plenty on here have heralded Howes ruthlessness, but I've not seen it so far, in fact quite the opposite. It could be his undoing, hopefully he understands that and acts.

Might have been worth it. Gain 9pts this season and finish 5th, then lose 6pts next season with a bigger squad to deal with the season. It depends on how much the club value minor European football. I gather very little, which is fine, but that's the reality of this season and the situation we found ourselves in. Either way, Eddie is not to blame for where we finish this season. He carried more of it before Jan, after that it was up to the club to magic up something or accept the season as a write off.

I've not held it against him, it's actually something I give him lenience on. We risked players health and careers this season, for some stupid cap to keep the big clubs happy. It's madness. Only thing we could have done to stsy in ffp limits is deals with Saudi, maybe we tried and none of the players wanted to move. I don't know. But I do know regardless of reason or whether it's right or wrong, our inability to bring players in during Jan cost us this season, when we could have easily finished 5th and would have been seen as a success. Such a shame.

I know this, I said this earlier, but that ended the season not being able to cover the injuries. The club decided it wasn't going to risk a punishment by trading, and by not trading our season was never going to be anything but this. I don't know why people find that so hard to understand.

We weren't arsed about where we finished, if we were, we'd have done deals in jan. Couple of signings and we'd have finished 5th, not scraping 7th (it'll be 8th)

We'd have secured it with a couple of signings. To say we're in the driving seat is madness. We've a tough away game, chelsea are on form and we've just lose to a rival in the race, a rival we've never finished above.

He's shite. Has been since he rick at the euros or wc (can't remember the tourney) We need a clear out of keepers (keep pope) and coaches. Not seen any keeper develop at the club since Krul.

Didn't see the game last night but shocked how many have turned on him. Happy to see him and Tino fight it out next season for the rb spot, but that might see him phased out and leave when he contract expires in 2025. I do think we might see a Saudi club come in for him, wilson, dubs etc...and they'd be daft not to follow that money given what stage of their careers they are at.

Looking forward to the ruthless revamp of the squad in the summer. Time to deal him some new cards. Season was done the moment the club decided not to purchase in jan. We've never needed players as much as we did then and we got nothing in. Ffp to blame in sure, but no so much from next month. I'm looking forward to options off the bench, and a squad that can be rotated. My only worry is Howe sticks with what he knows, and we see similar injuries to players as no rest is given. Still the man for the job. 100%, but the club needs to squeeze every last penny it can to support him.

Not a chance. Player egos won't allow it. See Potter at Chelsea.

Sorry if posted, but this is really good: https://fb.watch/s3pUvrbzsa/

Joelinton, Pope & Tripps start, I think we could see a really good performance. Not sure Brighton have the stomach for it atm. Still I'm a curse so put on 1-1, 2-2 & 3-3. (will be another 4-4 - yes I was there for that one as well)

Last day of the season. Jonas back in town. 100 years to the day since Milburn was born. 18 years ago to the day Shearer's testimonial. Hottest day of the year so far. What a day to play football.

Completely understand. I hate myself as well

Last 4 games I've been to have been a draw. Guess where I am this afternoon? Sorry.

Wow, that's pretty close to mine.
