That's hilarious, the replies are mint. I'm sure it was meant as sincere by the club but it looks really awful.

If that happens it happens, and it's not likely to be for a good while yet so pointless worrying about it. Liverpool are going to be challenging for the CL positions for the foreseeable future so I can't see them looking to get rid in a hurry. I reckon Klopp will be there for a couple more seasons at least. I agree, if I were a Liverpool fan I would want to see Klopp given a little more time, they've got a really good squad there, best they've had a a few years, problem is the competition at the top is crazy. If they do part company, I'm sure Rafa will be in the frame and would be the popular choice, but no point in worrying about that now, it's probably a long way off.

We are ceratainly in the "lets get to 40 points as quick as we can" mode, rather than looking further up the table, we still should be rightly ranked as one of the teams likely to be in the relegation mix at the end of the season however we've made an excellent start and made the most of a friendly fixture list, more wins and points on the board and our ambitions may change. As Ian says, Rafa is such a freakin genius it's hard to envisage us going down and the squad although short in some areas has a fair bit of young talent too.

https://www.readytogo.net/smb/threads/email-from-the-club.1392287/ Chortle It's amazing how their fans on the whole don't realize what a big mess they are in and it's been nothing to do with Short not putting his hand in his pocket right now. I love this line: "We have a good group of players now, a mixture of youth and experience, who are desperate to succeed here. We need to encourage and nurture them and we are confident that we will see the fruits of that as the season progresses." Keep believing that and they are truly fucked

Hey Crystal Palace scored, against a PL club, that's not happened before this season.

There's no value in that loan to us, if it continues this way, not sure what the terms of the loan are and if we can recall him but it should be explored. If he does come back after failing at the worst team in the champ though, then who's going to be in form him, best we can hope for is a loan to another L1 side, which proves nothing and I doubt would help help in his development.

True, feel though Armstrong is going backwards rather than pushing on. He was once the star of his joiner level, now people like Abraham have already passed him, he was only a peripheral figure at the u20 World Cup and a way off a u21 call up. He was once banging in the goals for fun at L1 Coventry the star man in a team that also contained Jacob Murphy, then had a less than spectacular loan to Barnsley now barely getting minutes at the worst club in the champ. This could be make or break season for him, he needs to start producing sooner or later.
-
West Ham one up already against Bolton, Armstrong can't even get in the side there, they are bottom of the champ, is he another Paul Brayson or is it still too early to make that call ?

There's only one real choice for anyone, here's the letters (in no particular order) that you'll need: L A K C B C O

Disagree that they're unbalanced like. They've got a great keeper, a solid back three, Pieters is solid, Johnson would be a better fit at RWB than Diouf mind. A solid enough midfield with a cracking playmaker, they lack a top striker mind. Easy to forget these beat Arsenal, were unlucky not to beat Man U who are trouncing everyone at the moment, and should have won at WBA who are giving bugger all away before we played them. They were lucky to get a point at WBA, it was a smash and grab affair. Agree with you on beating Arsenal was a great result (although they were very fortunate, it was constant Arsenal pressure and they had a perfectly good goal ruled out for a phantom offside). They would have been lucky to beat Manure, a draw was a fair result, still a very good performance though against a team bang on form, who are putting away the goals and stopping them going in.

Changing my prediction, think we will win. It's going to be tough to win 4 on the bounce but we are better than Brighton, we showed that last year twice. This will be a tough game for them as they are at home they will be expected to push, they can't play like they did against Man City or in their last game against Bournemouth, we will defend better than West Brom did against them. Brighton 0-2 NUFC and we'll move up to third in the table.
-
On evidence of the last 3 games, honestly believe Mitro offers us as much if not more in the build/link up department and is a better finisher than Joselu, if only he could stay available for selection he would be our best option in a one up top formation, in my view.

Our sponsor is pretty cool though, well at least the twitter account, they are hilarious, I wouldn't mind throwing them some free advertising for the twitter account alone

Your not always Mr positive when it come to us. Would expect you would have predicted us to be around the bottom end. I was very positive prior to the start of the season, then went completely the other way after Spuds and Huddersfield. If I'm being honest, I'm probably not far off Lawro, I would have predicted us on 3 points right now, I thought we would get draws at Huddersfield and against West Ham and Stoke (perhaps sneaking a victory in one of those two), with losses at Swansea and against Spuds. We are way better than my view. It's a great start.

Everton are going to struggle against pace,,, that's a ponderous back three.
-
Everton' 26 could be his son tbh.
-
How do gay people look? Bleached blonde bob.
-
Don't mean to be homophobic, lol, but that 26, whoever he is for Everton looks so gay.
-
That was a Joselu type finish, shocking.

Still seen nothing to suggest Pickford is a 30 million striker and Sigurdsen was ridiculously overpriced. Aye Pickford he hasn't got the attributes to be a £30m million striker EDIT: Too slow LOL

So difficult to replace a goalscorer of Lukaku's ability but look at the team they have and how they spent that money, it looks pretty average at best, may struggle to reach their customary 7th place this season. They've had a tough fixture list to be fair but still.
-
If Everton get dicked badly here, Koeman could be in trouble. They've been pretty dreadful this season.

Wow unbelievable that like

I hate watching Manure, because all you ever hear is United, United, United.
