Jonny Evans seemingly available, anyone take him here?
-
Not a massive fan of Thauvin tbh, similar to most rather just spend all our money on the defence.
-
Next game or two will tell is a lot and not necessarily the result. But if he persists with Obertan, Colback and Cisse whilst the likes of Perez, Aaron's and Mitrovic are on the bench then he is making a rod for his own back. Plus out main issue at CB has been ignored again due to his decision to keep Colo.
-
I completely get what your saying, but let's not forget these a professional footballers, playing at the top level they should be able to do the basics and not need coaching in how to pass and move and keep the ball at speed.
-
Giving Colo a new contract when it's clear we could have got rid is on him. That decision alone is going to cost us this season. Not starting Perez when the likes of Obertan are playing is also criminal. If we started poorly under a manager with proven quality or exciting potential, e.g Bielsa or Tuchel then we could all be a lot more positive. But we know McClaren and his record and he simply isn't that good to suggest things are going to be much better.
-
Agreed although the fixture list means the fans will be on his back by around October.
-
I think a lot of opinions,mine anyway are based on him and his overall record as a manager. That may be wrong but we already know he's not a great manager nor a great appointment and basically saying give him time is settling for mediocrity again. I think what I'm trying to say is although we can't judge him after two games, we can judge him on his overall career and that isn't suddenly going to change here. For me it's just an overall realisation that things aren't going to be much better in the long term, although obviously better than Pardew.
-
Remember when some of us were dreaming of Tuchel.
-
His record at pretty much every club and of course England suggest this. Obviously he will be given games but our fixtures are brutal and we will be in the bottom 3 by end of September and the pressure will be immense.
-
It's been obvious to every single fan all summer.
-
Don't worry we have Dummett....
-
not enough in the world for this You watching like, it's shambolic as has his subs. We're down to 10 away to a good side We were awful with 11, then to have no striker on? Shame we don't have an owner who will respond with the signings we need after this.

This is as bad as anything under Pardew.
-
Coz it's like that on the pitch.
-
Easy get back into this now with no strikers.
-
Cisse should be nowhere near our starting 11, he offers absolutely nothing.
-
It's alright saying McClaren needs time which he would in an ideal world, but the fixture list means he simply won't get any. We will struggle to get a point till the Watford game in about 4 games time.
-
Surprised at many people not wanting him tbh. Think at the right price he would be a cracking signing and give us much needed options. We shouldn't be going into the season with just the strikers we have now.
-
You expecting many more to come in Brummie? Seen Fonte linked yesterday.
-
The Daily Mail reckon that Fernandes is convinced someone will pay the full £15 million on or around the deadline. The same article also reckons Austin is convinced he will have to stay at QPR.
-
There strengths from last week were excellent wing play and delivering quality crosses to Gomis. If they play the same way can't see anything other than a comfortable Swansea win. 3-0
-
Seen a bit of this guy he is quality in the air and would be a good signing.
-
Reports suggest £12 million would get him. That Graeme Bailey fella who used to work for sky sports and goal, reckons we are still in for Thauvin as we have had signals that he is interested in coming here.
-
Linked with Andros Townsend in The Times. £15 million pound fee putting us off though.
