The Europeometer™ (2024/25) - NUFC Qualify for Champions League

Right. He did well to keep things going. He was great at maintaining a vibe. Whether that vibe was good or awful it would stay for some time. -

Nah everyone pulled in the same direction. Confidence. Belief. Some quality in key positions s. Outside of Cisse we scored some great goals. but this team is legit better -

We finished that season with a GD of +6. Royally thumped by Fulham and others. -
People love selling Maxi in their fantasies. Maxi will be here longer than Almiron.
-
Rice will stay at West Ham as long as it takes for one of the traditional big 6 to sign him at ann acceptable fee imo. I think we would need to break the bank to get him otherwise.

From a distance love could look like hate. You’re that bit harder on your mates. Give them more stick etc.

Roman would’ve just kept Potter unless he had a man lined up. Roman never sacked full time 2 managers in a season iirc. No point in Lampard. At least keeping Potter things might change. If at the end of the season it’s been diabolical change. But to cut him off now and bring in Lampard as Interim? It’s batshit crazy. Had they brought in Enrique or someone now? Fair enough.
-
Aye. You could tell there’s something to their relationship.
-
He'll not start ahead of Trippier no. But you would hope he could get in on the bench over Ritchie or even Manquillo.

As we are + Miggy. We are a very good team with talent, composure, work rate etc. in all areas. We have everything right now. But we are only 2 or 3 injuries to the wrong players from being fairly average. If we keep everyone fit. I've no doubt we'll finish top 4. I said some time ago. We needed a strong finish from ASM & Isak and they've started to show that. -
He is 21 man. A year older than Anderson and a year younger than Gordon. He is not 17.

West Ham owners are holding hands and saying in unison ‘in Moyes we trust’. They don’t trust themselves to get the managerial appointment right. They have to go down with the ship. And most likely they will stay up somehow.
-
Aye. He’s not going to get the credit but he’s been huge in our upswing in form and goals. He’s laid about 3 chances on a plate over the last 2 games. His attacking output is great. 8/10 Whenever he has a bit of space, his attacking output will be great. He’s massive for us. 2 assists to get us 1-0 in back to back games. Stays fit and we are a long way to the CL.

Not getting enough love for the quality of assist. Jinks into the box with skill and balance, left footed cross right onto the strikers head. Brilliant. Lesser players can’t do that. You need talent and ability to pull that off. No coincidence since he’s back in the side and finding form that we’re creating golden chances again and scoring more. This is what quality and confidence looks like.

I’m more worried about injuries and suspensions than other teams. -

We don't need to worry too much about other teams. We are almost fully fit. In good form. Confidence is high. Creating chances. Scoring goals. Strikers scoring. Keeping it tight. We just need to maintain down the final stretch. 5-6 wins and keep the losses down to 2 or 3 and we're probably 3rd let alone 4th. In the last 10 we just need to keep it up like we've done all season. -
He’s a Ponzi scheme
-
Aye. He's getting man-marked in every game now so he needs to move to get the ball and he's doing it. Once the opponent is really chasing, he gets a little more space and he just takes over the game. The man marking gives others a little more space too.
-
This is hilarious. It's funny because it's true and painful for both. "Kick me in the warm up eh? Do a podcast from the bench. Ahhh how the mighty have fallen." This is men's therapy.
-
Bench boosted into the top 200k. A top 10 NO league finish would be great, top 20 is ok too.

Ball winning winger.

England’s Dan Burn named Player of the Season 24/25
The College Dropout replied to Rich's topic in Football
Any good RW will give Burn a difficult game. That’s why he had such an easy game vs Antony. He doesn’t give up mind. He sticks at the task. -

With 9 games left. They have to win about 6. Kane hasn’t been injured or had a serious dip in form all season too. played (and started?) all 29 league games. 22 goals. Can’t take that record or his fitness for granted.
