Never a pen, but will take it.

Ritchie ?

Least we'll be in Europa if it all goes tits up.

Nope.

If we can somehow get away with losing him for just this season we've had a result.

I understand he needs support but at the same time he must have known this could happen so I feel a bit bitter about it tbh. He's fucked us basically.

Still a big loss, I know he's come and played more as a no.8 but he's still one of the only players who could possibly play that no.6 role. Willock, Joelinton and Anderson can't. Miley could but he's still young and I have no idea about Hall as a midfielder leaving only Longstaff.

Wonder if we'll bring him back short term to replace Tonali.

Looks like he hasn't bet on sports, give him all the support he needs.

What a mess, I think I'd rather us just terminate his deal if he's going to miss 18 months+.

Where's the Ashworth/Howe stuff come from?

Bet he was buzzing about that salary increase when he signed.

Yeah gambling doesn't really have anything to do with how much money you have.

Hope tomorrow on his YouTube channel "I'm just walking down this lovely lane here, now there's only once place start and that's Sandro Tonali. Eddie said last week that Sandro Tonali is a quality player, and I think he definitely has talent but last week I went for a coffee with one of my good pals Steve from the Mail and we both concluded he's fucking shite."

Fuck sake man please don't do that ?

Where's this?

Bit OTT, he was definitely a lot better. He kept it simple with his passing and retained it well but didn't do anything special to describe his performance as "Wonderful".

Eze is definitely out, the other two are likely to make it I think.

Biased cunt Merson ?

I think people are getting carried away, I know Howe has improved a lot of players but if people think we should stick with Lascelles in the summer and not strengthen I think they're very naive. He's done great the last few games no question about it, but I think he has a ceiling as a player and that's mid-table PL at best. He hasn't proven he's capable over a long enough period ever, even Dummett had a blinder against City. Do you honestly believe he should be retained aswell? He may have improved under Howe, but he's never going to be comfortable enough on the ball to play for us long term for where we want to be. People will point to Almiron and Joelinton as examples, but even Almiron who has performed out of his skin since Howe came in will need upgrading in the summer. I know this is super negative considering how he's played the last few games, but I still believe we will need better come next season if we really want to challenge the top boys.

Linesman had given offside at the same time so I guess no reason to say it was a goal.

Class tonight fair play, still needs upgrading in the summer.

Good news on Sandro, we should have enough cover for midfield now. I'd rest Joelinton and Wilson for Sunday.

We need it.
