Saw more talk on Jonathan David. I would definitely take him but he isnt the Canadian David we should be looking for. Promise David is the one. Fuck it. Id take both.

Wishing King Kev all the best here. Terrible news but hope treatment helps. This sucks.

I hope not on both counts. The minute he took the US job was the moment I felt his hunger had gone. I don't think he would come here for the right reasons or motivated enough. To an extent we can't expect Eddies eventual replacement to be committed/community minded to the depth Eddie is but I think its a potential banana skin to go for guys based purely on name and having done something half decent previously in the prem. Maybe he would be great.

True but someone still has to score.

Never a pen. Madueke hooks the psg players arm doesnt he?

Just watched the Vinnie documentary on netflix?? To be fair, that Wimbledon side would have turned on each other if they did one ounce of the simulation and play acting Arsenal do.

To be fair Greece were never the chosen ones. The ground their way through and bored everyone inspite of everything else!

Quality from the ref lol

Woeful camera work

Why so many back for PSG? Never stood a chance on that break.

Well, Mackems could have won the league and both cups.

Lol

So are we supporting the English club or the French? Dilemmas

Guess we shall see if Iraola lives up to the hype now just like Maresca.

This. We improved him, he improved us. Happy to cash in right now and wish him well. Other than the odd red card, rash decision and a ton of misplaced lazy passes, I have enjoyed him being here. Seems like a good lad in general. While we can, I am not convinced we will upgrade on him.

Yes to Jonathan David, really believe Howe could improve areas of his game. Rumours are Juve are willing to loan him out. We should explore that with option to purchase. Needs to happen before the world cup though. His stock might be lower now but could jettison if Canada click at the WC.

Get him a full pre-season under his belt. We will see a different player. He will be right up the top of the goalscoring charts next season. When we sell him to a second tier Turkish team.

It's just as easy to end up like spurs or chelsea going from manager to manager. I am not convinced with the speed our club moves at, that we would bring in the right person to replace him. I was at peace with Eddie leaving. I dont think there will be a better time. I am however fine with him getting the opportunity to right this seasons wrongs. This is the first time he has let us down. As said. (Pleasantly) surprised by the rare loyalty shown to him by the ownership.

Eddie has earned the chance at next season. We need a complete overhaul and so many people need hard looks in the mirror if not jettisoning out of the club. They need a full review to undress the many things that went wrong this year and how to remedy them. As mentioned, Eddie has earned next season but I still cant help thinking there will never be a better time to refresh with money to spend, players leaving and the full summer ahead. Hope we arent sitting here next season sad to see Eddie gone and 200m spent on players that didnt work out like this year. Its a gamble from the heart. Which is rare in mormdern football ownership. I credit their loyalty but it wont stop the worry of whether Eddie can once again prove doubters wrong. There are few genuinely dedicated enough to want to make it work than him.

98.9...Spare a thought for the much missed and misunderstood MartinJol

Right up there with Ferguson, Wenger and Mourinho for PL HOF managers. Spain or international football next after a long deserved break?

Amen on bad leadership and cheapskating. I think Axel Schuster has had to put up with a lot behind the scenes. Credit to him for sticking with it. I hadn't heard about the club turning down the Hastings Racecourse. I thought it was (i guess spun) the other way blocking it. Seems six of one and half a dozen of the other with BC place. The whole country is badly lacking infrastructure in this sport. Toronto has absolutely wasted the opportunity of hosting a world cup with cheap temporary seating instead of longer term impact. Does seem to be a glimmer of hope whitecaps stay after last weeks meetings but still but not particularly confident its not lip service for a done deal. From and MLS standpoint I have no issue with them wanting out of Canada in favour of US markets. Its a US league. Canada has just been having its cake and eating it with the developmental pathway. While every year its grinding forward and hopefully the WC might see more comercial buy in from sponsors/investors, The CPL is unlikely to close the gap enough, in our life time, to make it worthwhile to pull all Canadian teams out of the MLS.

Swap plus cash for wor Billy. Shame he is likely to end up elsewhere.

Interesting to see who he is next to here. Both are reportedly out the door.
