Ugh.

Feels like a transition rather than transformational signing similar to Burn and Targett. Fee is pretty low so can't complain. Solid left back and keeper for 20m odd is good business.

Good to see the stache is still the pinnacle of Aussie aesthetic. Sad lack of mullets though.

Grim, this.

Germany look really well coached again. It was fun while it lasted.

Well yeah I hope all the other 19 clubs crash if we're being reductive. Realistically us and Villa are the only two who might do it and breaking that structure is good for the league imo.

Lots of water under the bridge since then including a few humblings for both sets of fans. But fair enough. I'd love for us and Villa to gatecrash the top 6 in the coming years. Time for some new blood.

They'll have a strong side next season, good luck to them. I was at Villa Park in 09 when we were relegated, but I'm over it now in terms of their reaction. Let bygones be bygones now we're both on an upward trajectory.

Bloody switched over when it turned 2-0 Villa didn't I.

Wood would've converted.

Leeds are gonna spoil the fun.

Bassey is impressive. Got all the tools it looks like.

No.

Going to pens this, and Rangers will bottle it.

Much rather have Forest up. Sheff Utd have had their turn recently.

Staggering physical effort, kept wincing seeing him charge around closing everyone down.

Against sides where we're expecting to have a majority of the ball I'm not sure he fits in so well, which is why I think we need a more creative option. He shines against the better sides when he can hunt them down and disrupt things. He'll still be an important member of the squad next season but I think it depends who we face.

Back to mid season Big Joe tonight. Monster.

So success is the absolute be all and end all? Think how you see the shirt depends on where you fall on that scale. I'm personally happy to be run sensibly without all this extra baggage tbh. Others obviously feel different, I understand it but don't agree with it.

That Saudi shirt.

He's gonna drop the hoodie and suit up next year.

DCL for 40m or less would be a good signing. Anything north of that I'd be a bit wary.

Wonder if the Holte will applaud him off like the Kop did for Jeff Winter.
