  1. Phillip Billing been mentioned? Stands out anytime I’ve seen him(could be because he’s 6’4) but he’s been Bournemouth’s best player and will have plenty of admirers in the summer. Think we’d be in a good position to sign him.
  2. Pope is such a presence in goal compared to Pickford and Ramsdale.
  3. Would love Blackburn back. Love the badge and kit, Breraton, Gallagher and Dack deserve a crack at the big time. Former champs, League Cup in 02. Duff back then was a terror. Miss 'em tbh. Never went there but Ewood looked a nice place on TV. Really wanted Yakubu to hit 100 PL goals but it wasn't to be.
  4. Yup, he also genuinely looks down on the average match going/TV watching fan. There was a quiz during lockdown between him and Carragher and anytime Neville got something wrong he'd be like "Who could possibly know that?" and "I have a life, I don't care about these things". Think he's just in it for the money, media attention and to get Salford more notoriety. Wouldn't surprise me if that was the first time he saw Joe Willock play. Compare that to Carragher who said he'd go home and watch La Liga after his Liverpool duties were completed for the week. Carragher truly loves the game where as Neville is in it for the connections and networking.
  5. Palace for me. Boring, shitty club with really wild board decisions. I really have to stop being nostalgic because I always wanted the likes of Palace, Forrest and Leeds to come back to the Prem but they don't have the same allure as they did in the past. Now I'm missing Bolton Birmingham and Wigan. God knows what the fuck is wrong with me.

    Joe Willock

    Hopefully he gets a new number next season. 28 is a reserve team player number. He’s going to need all the help he can get if he’s going to break into the England squad(which he deserves). I know Rice 41 and Foden 47 but they are media darlings. Wor Joe goes under the radar. Think yesterday’s goal will establish his profile a little more.
  7. Don't know how Goldbridge has so many subscribers and views. There are so many better Man U fan Youtube channels. Think he has more than AFTV and they do TV production style videos now. Must be the size of the global fanbase or something. He's a very boring fella. Even his "meltdowns" aren't entertaining.

    Joe Willock

    Hard worker and so intelligent. Only 23 as well.
  9. Spurs would be wise to go for him to either partner or replace Kane.
  10. If he comes, he’a gonna want to be starting. He’s 26, not 22 like people would probably guess. What’s our ideal midfield? Willock, Bruno, Joelinton? Willock is already a better box to box #8 with better instincts and technique. Would rather we focus on attacking players and wingers than midfielders going into next season. Man U fans were saying they’d snap your hand off for 15 mil just to get rid of him. At that price, I’d take him as a squad player because we could be in Europe but I wouldn’t want this to be a marquee signing. Darren Fletcher stood out on the football pitch. McTominnay doesn’t. Only when he scores because he’s usually hiding behind opposition players and makes a few ghosting runs when players fall asleep. Willock does that better.
  11. Hope he doesn’t leave but you just never know with City sniffing around. Don’t think Arteta is even a lock. Could see him as Pep’s replacement should he decide to leave.
  12. He would be an upgrade on Longstaff but still think we could do better. Let him go to West Ham as Rice’s replacement or something.
  13. Pavard does not score normal goals. Jeez.
  14. I think he’s trying to force the issue a bit. Don’t think he’s got the ability to take on three/four players like he’s been trying to do. Granted, is winning fouls but think passing back and to the sides wouldn’t be the worst thing in the world.
  15. Bring on that ice pack for the fella Maddison just pushed over. Surely a concussion.
  16. That fucking bastard Helder Postiga always seemed to turn up for Portugal.
  17. Would take any of those three as our 10 even though I’ve never actually seen Foden play in midfield. Just know he can or something like that.
