  1. Can we name a recent athlete to be an alcoholic? Jack seems to like a blowout. Which is bad craic for any fully matured adult let alone an athlete.
  2. Aye - even a shot on target is something. Force a save, maybe get a corner, parried back into danger or continue the attack. Something. My point is - let's try and sell on a high if we have the luxury of loaning him out. I don't see a genuine £25m offer coming in for him this summer. £8m-20m. I can see him going to the Champ or somewhere like West Ham. Based on the last couple of seasons, he's a level below what Palace and Fulham are after.
  3. Remember why I muted/blocked Froggy.
  4. Think the manager gives him leeway on performances in general. If we are basing things on performance this season - HB starts at LW.
  5. You are right and you are just talking about the permutations. I've long looked at it like we needed to beat those few teams, maybe pickup a draw somewhere on the road which we did and we qualify for the CL. Needing to win against Everton to secure it. I feel like everything has gone to plan so far and we need to only focus on the one thing. The only thing that hasn't gone to plan is we've picked up more injuries than expected. Getting Trippier and Isak back would be brilliant.
  6. We literally won the game in the first 20 minutes. You improved and where unable to amount any type of comeback.
  7. A little surprised Madrid are going Alonso rather than Klopp. I guess Klopp definitely can’t work with 1 or 2 lazy players and Alonso is willing.
  8. Better then worrying about what happens if we can’t beat Everton at home
  9. I don't know why I keep reading this thread. Kill Everton = Qualify for CL Other permutations are a distraction.
  10. We overran you in midfield and won the game in 20 minutes at Old Trafford. We forced you into an early sub because we were destroying you no?
  11. ??????? 69 points for City would get them CL guaranteed. If they win today they will have 68 points. Meaning they will need a draw to secure CL. It’s all going down to the last game regardless.
  12. He's a fantastic talent imo. He's better developed than Miley and younger and he also a fantastic talent.
  13. We have ran you over in midfield tice this season but we've ran over better midfield's than yours tbf
  14. I've always liked Garnacho but don't know how he becomes a top player. Doesn't look to have the physical or technical attributes yet - I did think he had a killers mentality or potential to get one.
  15. Wages are crazy but Casemiro is a positive influence.
  16. I’ve never seen a worse defender as a top level fullback than Trent. Frimpong let’s see ya.
  17. It’s also a cherry picked stat. Gareth Bale had something like 25 goal contributions in 30 games when he won Player of the year. It’s just that 20+ were goals. Aye man. It’s these things that will make Gordon a target for ridicule. A lot of his attributes are down to well channeled aggression and graft. But he seems to lose it easily. His head goes down. I guess he’s a sensitive lad. Digging him out won’t help. He’s not Rooney Bellamy type where if he’s frustrated he’ll close everything down.
  18. He scores goals. Thats a major problem almost solved. He’s a ‘bit of magic’ goalscorer too.
  19. One of the 10s behind a striker. Natural position for him tbh. He seems able to play as a runner and a playmaker so he should suit playing with Bruno
  20. Big fan of Cunha but he doesn’t have a clear role for us. And haven’t liked his carry on.
  21. And my point is CL gives us the greatest ability to attract talent possible. We can’t control what cartel clubs do. We can control getting into the CL.
  22. Sure. But would he have joined us with no CL?
  23. Bigger issue is when VVD and Salah hit the wall. Those are generational players with few downsides. As great as Trent was. He has massive downsides. Similar to KDB at City. KDBs the man. There’s not been this level of ‘man’ at attacking midfield in the PL since Gerrard. And KDB is a better team player than him.
