Update: losing to city makes zero difference to this thread. Check back after Luton at home.

Get a fucking grip you miserable cunt, stinking up the Howe thread saying we’re shite after we just went toe to toe with the best team in the world with half a squad. Absolute fucking weapon.

Fuck off man

https://www.bbc.co.uk/sport/football/67957436 Bring him home.

Trippier, Wilson, Miggy, Murphy - these 4 can surely be traded before we offload Bruno. If Wilson and Trippier go to Saudi in the summer we can massage the figures on both deals. £25m a pop and there’s your £50m

I know this is back of a fag packet but 50% additional labour to go from smashing a building down to carefully removing each brick and cataloging them seems way off - I’ll go with 10x.

Captain choice is a real head scratcher this week.

Trippier is off to Saudi in the summer if you believe the whispers, we should get Firmino money for him at least.

Place is bouncing, fair play.

Shows how stretched we are at the minute that Gordon is first choice LW and second choice RW & CF. We absolutely must sign a centre forward this window - ideally someone who can play on the right hand side as well.

At £15m if he can run it’s worth doing, if he can finish it’s a cast iron no brainer - doubt we’ll be the only ones in for him mind.

As someone who moved down south I can say from experience that they do struggle to understand what we’re saying unless we consciously make it easy for them. I don’t think the reverse is true.

if you’re fabricating scenarios based on hunches, why make it so depressing? ‘This season is disappointing but as I’ve mentioned before the contracts I have zero insight into are a vast improvement on our previous deals regardless of league position or European qualification. One ‘bad’ season shouldn’t set us back and we’ll have plenty of FFP wiggle room in the summer’ Better?

I changed to son last minute as I reckon Eddie’s gonna start Tino and he’ll have Salah in the back pocket.

Bowen for any amount is wishful thinking. £50m is laughable.

Something is definitely off with him physically. If you watch that Everton assist from last season it’s clear as day; he was gliding across the grass and looks so heavy now in comparison.

How is that pull not a yellow

It is ridiculously competitive this year. It’s fantastic for the league for someone other than city to win the title, such a shame it has to be LEGO hair or the scouse gurner - dislike them both immensely.

Aye in that moment when the ball broke to him he picked out Isak with an excellent ball, shows what he's capable of. Still, you can't have watched him very closely if you don't agree with the principle point @Chicken Dancer is making - he's very clearly keeping things ticking over possession wise alongside making excellent runs which create space.

Brings into focus our injury situation (again) - we're unable to really finish games strongly at the minute.

Pretty sure Bobby had something to say on this one…’it’s not the building’ and all that. If a new stadium allows us to charge corporate through the nose while keeping the prices reasonable for the radgies then that’s just one more reason for me to think we go for it. As I made sure I said when I completed the survey; the number one factor for a new stadium has to be atmosphere. Get the atmosphere right then get everything else sorted and it’ll be worth the move to Leazes park.

For me it has to be a new stadium in Leazes park with the current stadium site landscaped as a land swap. The caveat being the highest priority with the re-build is acoustics & atmosphere - give us 20k safe standing behind a goal and let’s see if we really are the best fans in the world.

Fucking wish I could get paid what these con artists get for peddling the obvious.

Poorly worded. I meant to say with owners who will back him as much as they possibly can (FFP being the obvious limit).

You could make a strong case to say he has the best job in world football right now. Hate the term but 'sleeping giant' with limitless backing, he's living an FM save.
