  1. Spot on. Some haven't changed their outlook yet. Leeds and Brentford are plummeting. Everton not far off either. Form counts for loads.
  2. 2 out of the 3 results is a great night for us and Spurs might still equalise.
  3. Palace 3. Cheers palace.
  4. Some right fannies in here man. If Burnley out score us points wise between now and May then we don't deserve to be in the PL. It's Leeds, Everton and Brentford who are on the slide, not us.
  5. Not bothered about Burnley. Leeds and Brentford should be though.
  6. Just no. He's our player of the season in CM.
  7. Realistically, we will sign 6 players max in the summer (not including Targett). Doing any more than that and expecting quality transfers and quality results seems unlikely. Eddie is unlikely to want whole sale change and seems quite loyal to a few of our players. With that in mind this is how I see our summer 25 man squad, provided we stay up. GK: New GK Dubravka 2nd choice Gillespie 3rd choice. (Darlow and Woodman are "sellable", hence keeping Gillespie as 3rd) RB: Trippier Manquillo CB: Burn Schar New signing New signing Dummett (Versatile) LB: Targett Lewis? CM: Joelinton Shelvey Bruno Willock Longstaff New signing RM: Fraser New Signing LM: Maxi Murphy ST: New signing Wood Wilson Out: Gayle, Hayden, Shortstaff (loan), Almiron, Richie, Krafth, Lascelles, Fernandes, Woodman (loan), Darlow The bad news is that we will be left with a few "poor players" lingering around. The good news is that they shouldn't get much game time when we sign quality players.

    Sunderland

    Doesn't sound good. Hope they are OK.
  9. Hope Eriksson starts, there is no way he can cope with the physicality of our midfield after 8 months out. As much as its a lovely story, there is zero chance he returns as good as he was.

    Joelinton

    Player of the season?
  11. We need 6 central midfielders if we are to play 433. Joelinton Willock Bruno Shelvey X2 new signings Makes sense to me. Even with an oil well, we won't be signing 11 players. Besides which, we could still sell him if the correct fee comes in.
  12. 100%. I really like Targett and it's a great place to start in the summer but if Villa start playing silly buggers over a fee, either Targett digs his heels in or we look else where. 25m is huge when you consider that's nearly our initial fee for Bruno.
  13. They just signed Digne for 25m. They can fuck off asking 20m for a player they deem second choice.
  14. Good news is that ASM is seemingly on the mend. Bad news is that it looks like the training ground stalker has managed to sneak into the gym so ASM prolly won't survive the week.
  15. Leicester fragile as fuck. We are coming for you too.
  16. From everything I've watched, Bruno can play either as a DM or as a box to box. He can pretty much do anything in the middle but he won't get you goals. It doesn't really matter who he replaces.
  17. I don't disagree but there is more to building a squad and team than simply picking 11 players. Eddie Howe is balancing squad harmony right now and doing a good job at it. Bruno will play soon and we all suspect he will be class. Right now he's like a trump card that we can use at any time.
  18. Leicester line up: Tielmans= Wants out. Albrighton= Ancient Dewsbury-Hall= His first season playing top flight Daka= New to the league Lookman= A player that even we weren't that keen on a couple of years ago. I know some of these are Rodgers decisions but, their squad is midtable.
  19. Do Leicester fans want Rodgers sacked? From the outside, it seems crazy that they would consider letting him go... unless they have someone decent lined up. Their squad is terrible compared to what it was a couple of years ago. Rodgers has proven himself a good manager. Give him the summer to get rid of some bad eggs and sign some new players IMO.
  20. Man Utd could still throw this mind.
  21. Sancho looking much better these days.
  22. Terrible finish from Elanga.
  23. I'm glad to not be involved in these types of games like.
