  1. Big Dan needs to get back to doing what he does best and stop thinking he's Eusabio. Got caught a couple of times last night and has been bordering on giving away penalties or the ball in previous matches
  2. Arteta gets on my tits, always outside the technical area and often on the pitch. A Man U player was taking a throw in and Arteta was about 3 feet away from him.
  3. Longstaffe and Joelinton get through an amazing amount of work but sadly they both spurn some really good chances. Compare them to Man Uniteds Fernandez. We do well with the squad we have that's for sure and we are only in our first year of rebuilding so it will take time. Finding players who you would like to sign is not easy. The selling clubs need to be willing to sell also so it's not just about the money. Big money has been paid by clubs on players who just never made the cut and there are plenty of examples at Man U, Liverpool, Everton etc.
  4. ASM looks a lot slimmer and hopefully fitter than he was. I think that they side are getting a bit stale and we need an injection of something different. Most of the starting 11 have played nearly every game and done incredibly well but we need something different
  5. He's probably a year older now
  6. I see Woody starts for Nottingham Forest. Hope he scores for them
  7. He could be a really good player if he wasn't such an aggravating little shit
  8. Mitro would be no good for Eddie. One of the problems between him and Rafa was that he didn't want to do tracking back. If I remember right he said my strength is up front scoring goals no defending
  9. Rooney might replace Frankie. Fans favourite
  10. He was bought for 2 reasons. One he was just about the only one available and we were desperate. Two he was bought to help us avoid relegation. He's done that and since then we've taken bigger steps forward than most people expected.
  11. Amanda "So what do you think of Eddie Howe Steve" Steve " What you mean that bloke who got Bournemouth relegated? Not much to be honest" Amanda " That confirms it then, Eddie Howe it is"
  12. He proved his worth by helping keep us up last season but he is not a modern day striker. I felt sorry for him last night when he fluffed that really good chance and you could see by his expression that he wanted the ground to swallow him up
  13. I think Wagner will do well at Norwich
  14. Why do they call it shithousery, it's part of the game. No doubt Arsenal would have preferred it if we had been Mr nice guys and let them win 5-0 or something. It's about playing to your strengths and ours is our defence. Our attack isn't good enough to all out attack some of the top teams at the moment but that will come

    Dan Burn

    Sails a bit close to the wind at times
  16. Can't bear to watch it so following on here
  17. Problem with playing Maxi on the left is it exposes Burn to Saka
  18. I'd love for us to get a result but won't be too disappointed if we lose by the odd goal. It will be a good test to see where we are

    Football pet hates

    My pet hate is female commentators and female pundits. I watched the Leeds game yesterday and it was ruined by the Emma Hayes commentary. She has a voice like a blunt saw and just doesn't shut up
  20. Moyes will be the next casualty and he'll be off to Everton to replace Frank the Tory
  21. Players,like managers, either outgrow the team or the team outgrows them. During my working days I attended an an employee's 25 years service presentation. I was stood with our new MD and I said how nice it was to see such service. He said that he didn't want anyone working for him for long periods of time. He said that you get get the best out of people in their first three years then they should move on
  22. I can't believe that people are saying that Trippier was the worst player on the pitch last night. I saw at least 5 of them worse than him
  23. Bruno will bring home his World Cup winners medal
