Looking forward to seeing this lad play, think for the one year he'll have under Rafa he'll be a really astute addition.

Had him in my fantasy team too.

Dummett is absolutely fine for where we are.

Probably Muto to do about nothing.

Scharly not.

Nowt to do with Charnley being incompetent. He's just doing what he's told. He seemed to be alright at doing them in the championship when he was allowed to.

Hate this point. He clearly dosnt want Mitrovic but I also think it’s pretty clear Rondon wouldn’t be near this club either if Rafa was able to get anywhere near his top targets. The reason it’s so underwhelming is that is bargain bin buys loans again. Rafa didn’t want Mitrovic last season and we got Joselu Exactly don’t see why people are struggling with this. There is a reason Rafa has not signed a new contract and this type of signing fully illustrates the reason why he won’t either and will be gone in under 12 months. None of this still changes my original point that if Rafa prefers Rondon over Mitrovic then I'm happy to trust his judgement. Not sure what's hard to grasp about that. Do you not understand NEITHER would be his choice that is the whole point and the reason he won’t be here next year. You’re right it’s not hard to understand a all Nice straw man. I'm out.

May as well go for Mbappe and Kante as they're as realistic as some of the names you've mentioned.

If Rafa prefers Rondon over Mitrovic then I'm happy with that.

Ki? Oh yeah. Not quite the panic I thought then Also Ki won't be fit when the season starts.

Forgot Saivet still existed.

Some great posts in this thread about the country being united etc. Feel like we've got the foundations of something to get behind again, especially with some of the talent that we have coming through. We just need somebody in the middle who can put his foot on the ball and control the tempo when needed. Hopefully people don't expect too much now and give Southgate time as he's very much still learning at this level too. Onwards and upwards.

Let's hope he has more of a brain on him than Burke does. Definitely. Isn't their head of recruitment an English guy? I'm not sure. Ragnick is taking the reigns again until Nagelsmann steps in isn't he?

Kane missing that chance in the first half and that header man. The header seems worse for me as he didn't really anticipate it. Shearer would've fucking buried it.

They actually only put the commentary on after our national anthem. Some of them are such Mackems.

I'm currently on the Isle of Arran so I'll be heading down to the village pub and no doubt upsetting some of the natives in the process.

Zidane wasn't even at his best in '98, Euro 2000 was him at his absolute peak.

Belgium were unbelievable tactically against Brazil man.

The difference it makes having somebody likeable in charge man. Imagine having to back an England team in a tournament with Allardyce in charge? He'll be raging with the amount of set piece goals that we've scored from as well.

Lovely sarcasm.
