Agree with everything except the last bit. Don't see how we're in trouble like unless you think Benitez is going to leave because of lack of transfers. People need to get real with the state our squad is in. As good as Rafa is we are only 1 or 2 long term injuries away from disaster. We have taken loans out and signed relegated players Theres a team down the road who played that game Our team is full of players who simply aren't good enough for this level but are being coached to be the sum of their parts We lack creativity goals and defensive solidity. Suspensions and injuries will royally fuck us as what we have in the squad as cover is frankly pathetic

We had fuck all cover at the back last season, that’s why we were in or around the relegation zone for most of it.. Dummett played about half a season and Gamez and Haidara managed 5 appearances between them. Mbemba not much more. Manquillo started 20 PL games! We desperately need cover at the back. I’m not convinced about Schär and Yarney needs time. Clark played too much last season, he’s just not up to the level. A long term injury to Lascelles and we are certs to go down the rest of our defence is atrocious

Only position we have improved is keeper - other squad additions not sure I think our squad looks like it has better options and I don't honestly think another manager on the planet could pull this off with a Fucking £20 million profit, I hope the new owners give him a 10 year contract Rafa will be long gone by time we have new owners

It's not that we don't have interest we just don't want to pay 6 to 8m it's a fucking disgrace. Our transfer policy is the absolute worst in the top 2 divisions by an absolute mile

Watford bidding triple our transfer record FFS

What do you reckon???

A Brazilian in any other position on the pitch and I'd be full on excited. A Brazilian at CB, though. Thiago Silva disagrees with this

Cool so we may be able to field upto 40% of our first 11 as loan players next season if we get another 2. Then next year we only have to replace 4 players to stand still This is what fucked Sunderland massively and we are now on the same slippery slope. Loaning players is not the way to improve your squad and have any form of continuity Where the fuck is all the money going too surely this needs to be questioned and even investigated further

Cant compete with these so called powerhouses like Bournemouth and Brighton who Bournemouth incidentally have spent more on their record transfers in the last 2 years than we have in the last 22. This is a team that has only spent 8 years higher than the championship in their history Just wait until next season when we can't compete with the mighty Brentford and half of the other teams in the championship Hes a fucking lying conman who just manipulates people. Stoning the fat cunt to death is too good for him he's a typical rich bully boy who operates bully boy tactics to people in his life/business because he thinks he can bully and manipulate people who have less in life Sadly thats how these billionaires operate in business. I hope to god the high street collapse ruins his cheap shit tacky stores but i think as long as theres council estate/dole waller/chav scum in this world he has the niche market cornered

as if we would ever spend good money on anyone

Really is shocking how old that looks. Absolutely pitiful really. There will be champ clubs with better facilities There will be league 1 clubs with better facilities man just look at the state of it. It looks like some kind of drop in centre for junkies and alcholics

Yep an absolute carthorse of a guy on loan or a fitz hall type of guy bought in for 500k

The whole ground singing the traditional Lee Charnley is a wanker is a wanker will suffice This guy has got off scott free with everything but the mere fact he signed Mikes stupid letter the other day absolutely denotes where his loyalties lie and what side/stance he has taken This wretched little fucking jobsworth should be run out of town he's one of the reasons and he's complicit in everything he's not some fucking patsy Absolutely despise this scrote

Bournemouth have spent more on their 2 highest players in 2 years than we have In 22 years Let that sink in

Once

FFS man the standard of players we go for is so fucking demoralising these days

Look at them socks man

Why are Parma starting on minus points this season??

With the fixtures we have I'd be amazed if we aren't in the bottom 3 after 10 games The nicest thing about our winning run last season was that it kept you from posting regularly. Come on its as tough a start as we could ask for couple that with lack of investment in first XI and a disillusioned set of players it makes it even tougher. The likelihood is we are going to start our first 2 or 3 games with Joselu as our striker and no new signings in the 11

With the fixtures we have I'd be amazed if we aren't in the bottom 3 after 10 games

Absolutely why anyone even discusses it is beyond me. It takes us fucking ages to even conclude any deal and people still think we can do some in 2 days...wake up We are done and no one else will come in until next summer. Basically Rafa has signed his last player for us

Spineless Bastard got his thumb yes man to sign it ffs

It would be good that on 11 minutes everyone stands up and turns their back on the pitch for a period of 5 minutes. That would be highlighted massively by TV

Binned him for wanting to smash Charlotte Jackson's pastie

Someone educate the cunt and tell him we've never been at that level
