Predictions: Schar will get a head injury in the first half, but be absolutely fine At some point in the game, Longstaff will stretch out his arms in frustration because of a run Murphy didn't do

Not often our bench is on par with the opposing team.

Only if you expect him to create/finish something. Don't forget that putting him on can free up defensive responsibilities for others already on the pitch.

The guy has played a total of two games worth of minutes since he went to Hearts. They don't know if he is good enough or not - he needs to get the opportunity to prove it. If Hearts weren't prepared to give unknown talent a chance then why loan him at all.

Liverpool and Fulham losing. Brighton and Brentford sharing points. A win tomorrow would be gigantic towards a top 4 finish.

Don't think there are any keepers beyond those two that are currently playing that would even think about it

Damn, that is some counter attacking football. Great goal.

Yes please, but we'd need a Norwegian as well then so all scandos are represented.

Buying average players at a premium and hope/expect Howe to improve them just because he's managed to improve some of our current players doesn't seem like a very smart business or football decision. If McTominay was 6 years younger then sure, it maybe worth the risk.

Manufacturing a sense of crisis and urgency to rally the players for a strong finish to the season is probably more helpful for Spurs with a caretaker who knows the system and players already in place than keeping Conte for the remainder of the season stinking up the place or replacing him with a new manager with a new philosophy and system. Think they've made the best decision they could have...sadly.

In general ofc, but in this thread I only see two more people disliking it, who posted as such after my post?

It's one lost and confused soul not liking it

Nah.. Most notable as FC Copenhagen manager for many years. Think he even had a short stint at Wolves. Boring, safety first approach with expired favorites very much like Southgate.

We should just surrender to Sweden or something. Getting fucked by Joselu in 2023 ffs

Finally we're going to get educated players in the door.

Thought it was more like

Depends on whether Watford gets promoted or not I'd imagine.

Liverpool missing out on Bellingham has a similar kind of feel as when we missed out on Modric. Think they'd be wise to break the bank to get him sooner rather than later.

That's it? Was hoping for a bit more tbh. A slight nudge to the shoulder. It's a red card of course, but I wish refs started handing out cards to players who cannot shut up and just accept the decision the ref makes in general. Maybe the rat faced Bruno would stop doing it after his 20th yellow in a row or so. Not surprised something like this happend as all refs let so much complaining slide without punishment.

He may come good under someone like Eddie, but it's a hell of a risk to take on someone who has shown so little while playing with so many great players, considering our transfer strategy is to "not fail with a single one" as we can't afford any duds due to FFP. Why not go for someone who has already proven he has more quality?

Eddie Howe gunning for a team with average height of 1,90m + ? We're still not scoring on corners anyway, so why bother.

Referees in the PL are spineless and incompetent. Haven't seen the Mitro incident talked about on here, but have a feeling I'll support his actions, in a guilty pleasure kind of way

7 goals and 4 misses in his career before today says he maybe wasn't a given taker considering the circumstances. The two penalties he's taken for us has been very good though so maybe something he's worked on.

So treatment in France and out for 2 months then?
