Colos Short and Curlies

Can we include Shearer moving from failed goalkeeper to world class striker?

Everton was a loan with option to buy wasn't it?

TBF Bale was Jamal Lewis before he became Gareth Bale so its not impossible

the player or the club hehe stings a bit that we bought Wood to directly strengthen a rival for top 4 though

I can see the intensity remaining as long as we are in contention for something, there’s a determination in this squad that is making 2+2 equal much more than 4. If we did drop away for any reason then I could see the intensity drop but we’re talking last few games of the season really

We’re better than 2 of the teams and as good as the other. never a better chance to end the drought (then make it a double)

He definitely had a slight dip after his kid was born. nothing major but was at 90% for a couple of games

Yeah we did enough to win whilst not playing well at all. Isak x 2, Murphy x 2 (the one on one where he just stopped running and the rubbish chip), Ritchie ballooning over twice, Wood all good enough chances to put that game away

Whilst having both would be the ideal we would be stronger second half of the season with ASM being sold and Maddison coming in. Isak, Wilson, Miggy uptop big Joe, Bruno, Maddison in the middle. reckon we could get Maddison and Tielmans for what we would get for Maxi, especially if we threw in Darlow on loan in part ex

When you see an opportunity you grab it with both hands and then work out how to deal with it later. top 4 shouldn’t be something to be scared about because our squad can’t cope. If needs must we could pad it out with a couple of experienced free transfers on 12 month deals. Or we could go big and replace most of the squad outside the first 11. Many ways to skin the cat but we will face that problem whenever we first get champions league football

Seems to be a disproportionate occurrence when a defender scores an OG they score at the right end in the same game

I see a loophole in that wording for Big Daddy Cool

Bottom 3 is as glorious as the top 3 as it stands

What was Tarkowski doing for the second goal?

There is no run of games against our rivals either so even if we do lose to one of them we've time to regroup before the next one

He must be getting close to the longest unbeaten start to a PL career? could only see the arsenal invincible steam having someone beat him assuming they had a new signing play all season

mid youre lucky enough to be having a go with Liz’s fun bags there is a decent chance that her son is there taking photos tbh

yeah I know Gorilla used it in this match, but for me it was always Davey and the Warlord where the phrase was used as I got into wrestling way after mania 3

nah that phrase was always British Bulldog and Warlord back in the day

If we were smart we would loan Dubs with an option/obligation to buy so that we face Ward at SJP

wrong big club for him. left field predictions for the summer….. Spurs sack Conte/he walks Spurs sell Kane Chelsea sack Potter. Potter moves to Spurs

you’ve added an extra game in the second scenario ?

Think we would need to win pretty much every game to win the league, ain’t going to happen unless City and Arsenal implode

If he goes into Management you can see him favouring the 2 big men up top

The problem with Pickford is who needs him and would pay decent money? Spurs maybe but after that the top of the table pretty much have the GK position nailed down. so you are limiting the bidding war and therefore his value, he’s also only got 18 months on his contract. if they went down it wouldn’t surprise me if 2 out of the mentioned three plus Dele Ali all start the championship season
