Want West Ham to go down so we can nab Haller, Lanzini and Anderson.

yes a once in a lifetime feat that will never be repeated. And what happened next season? also, Leicester that season: 7. Leicester conceded just 34 goals in 36 matches with Arsenal being the only team to score more than two goals in a single match against the now champion club. 18. Goalkeeper Kasper Schmeichel kept 15 clean sheets and 7 of the shutouts came in the last 10 games. 19. Leicester gave Schmeichel a lot of protection. Over 36 matches, Leicester blocked 159 shots – only West Brom and Crystal Palace stopped more. 20. The centre-back partnership of Robert Huth and Wes Morgan combined to block 73 shots. 21. The bulky duo was also busy making clearances. Only three players bested Huth’s 263 clearances and Morgan was only four places lower in the ranking with 211 successful clearances. Leicester’s defensive discipline showed in the number of defensive errors – only 10 all season and just one led to a goal. For comparison, 13 of the goals allowed by West Ham and Aston Villa came from defensive miscues. As a team, Leicester averaged 23 tackles per game and 21.8 interceptions – both Premier League highs. Of the 3,240 minutes played over 36 matches, Leicester only trailed for 370 minutes. I'd suggest those stats are pretty damn good and not relevant at all to ours. Leicester played efficient and ruthless football that was backed by their stubborn def + gk and counter attack / set pieces that punished once or twice a game. A simple formula that is hard as fuck to replicate.

Can't for the life of me fathom how or why the potential new owners would have sold their business plan to one another with the idea that they'd eventually be pushing for Europe with a manager who's not got the track record to do so. For that reason alone, I don't see him being tasked to stay on. He will get a nice farewell send off (pay off).

Def Agree, Neesy and Ian

Assuming we get sold and we have a dedication to challenging for Europe, then Steve Bruce is clearly not the right man to lead the club into this future. He’s done better so far than I’ve expected - keep it down to the strong core of the team, fortunate results and a bit of luck. Hopefully we pick up some more results and finish high as possible, get sold, he gets a thank you and is let go and we don’t have to speak too much about him again.

Big fan of Isaac. Just think if we are going to kick on he can’t be starting every game unless he contributes more in attack or passing about.
-
Just have a team with peak HBA, Ginola, Robert and ASM in 4 attacking positions and call it a day. Pure taste.
-
It’s almost like he should be playing off a main striker, or wide left or something.

Hey Luke Edwards, go fuck yourself.

The approval could have happened over the weekend tbh.

Joelinton’s first half finish reminded me of my double miss in our fifa matchup

I’m really excited to have Father’s Day breakfast with my son and we get to watch Newcastle on tv before we have a nice day together. Nice bit of sunshine in an otherwise cloudy world at the moment. -
manorpark[/member] - I look forward to your long history lesson on the stadiums on sky scraper city getting a much needed update with whatever PIF does to SJP in the future. Will be an epic post.

The fact PIF are investing into BT is significant in that they are are continuing to show commitment to the British economy.

This! Now watch him score 1-1 in this boring toothless game. Makes me randomly miss Willems and wish we had a better right winger than Ritchie man. -
