The College Dropout

He was playing RB iirc and was solid there.

Rarely injured. 46 G/A last season. £60m fee doesn’t replace that.

Yeh it’s long done now but the Gordon transfer is one that looks ropey. But it is what it is.

50 games. 31 goals. He’s a machine.

Every Liverpool fan I know online has been having a meltdown recently. Very unhappy with their transfer business.

Juventus did that but it looked for more reasonable. It’s something we could’ve done if we had wanted their captain. Could justify a massive fee there and a smaller fee for Livra. But using the no-mark thing would have Chelsea running to the PL

From what I’ve seen (diabolical Chelsea management tbf) I’d rather Rice or Caicedo. Rice and Caicedo are physically dominant and both can play. Enzo needs someone like that alongside him imo.

Didn’t anticipate Anderson being ready for serious minutes and expected us to push for champions league spot again. One Tonali type. One more Szob type that could play wide too. Get Barnes but keep ASM. I think that team (+ defensive reinforcements) can qualify for CL again and give the CL a decent go. As it stands FFP makes that type of investment impossible. So we’ll do the best we can. I’d be delighted with any type of European football again and Eddie has shown he can work miracles.

No. Nobody said it was. But they are happy today.

They’re happy to be competing and winning. Especially against City.

Good for Arsenal to beat City.

Aye. So I’m right. Partey can protest as long as he’s not invading personal space. And others can protest from a distance.

I don’t follow American football at all. Do they actually know ball? i imagine they took it serious before almost all other nations and benefitted from a more professional setup.

If there’s more than one player approaching the ref. Partey could’ve protested and the others could supported but not approached.

Ref has been awful. Definite yellow on Partey there. Arsenal players not a peep. Just the fans. SMH.

I hope we sign a young exciting CB. I expect Tino to play a lot too.

Really want Barnes in my FPL team. If things go well he could bag 15 in the league. At £6.5m it’s a steal.

Hope City don’t replace Mahrez with a signing and give minutes to Palmer. Great goal. Foden lovely too.

USA benefitted from first mover advantage. They don’t know ball.

I feel like our players are too nice and they need to get onto the officials more. Think Everton away They tried to kick us out the game. Eventually injuring Longstaff.

Pep brought that to City day 1. Fernandinho was a master at it.

We can’t take a £15m punt?

That might be the issue. I don’t know why we would do that though. Quick google suggest £78-100k which seems high aye.

Zinchenko injured (I assume). Timber starts. Tierney benched.
