No. Just no.

No doubt it’s a big achievement. But it is not less likely now that we’ve won 5 straight. In fact, it’s more likely now than it was the day before we played Leicester.

We probably won’t get 12 because it’s hard to win four in a row but it has nothing to do with the five previous.

Not sure why Chelsea would be penciled in for anything given their current form.

Double over Spurs. Get in.

Most likely he will be rusty for awhile.

I don't disagree with any of that. PSR is poorly constructed and unfair. We should be able to have depth in each position, particularly if owners are willing to spend money. But if we accept the rules aren't changing, at least in the near term, then spending 3-4% of our revenue on a 27 year old who is only a backup LW is a poor use of the resources we have. This has nothing to do with the player, who I love, and I would be annoyed if we were forced to sell him, but as we look around at our options to create flexibility and improve the first XI this is almost certainly an option under consideration. I also realize that if we do sell him Gordon will get hurt the next day.

This is why I really wanted us to move on Almiron and/or Trippier in the summer regardless of the fee. The two combined are over £8m of costs.

What am I being gaslit about?

In our current position we cannot afford to have two expensive players who play the same position and seemingly can't be accommodated in the starting XI at the same time. There's little point in having two good left wingers when we don't have a right winger (with apologies to Murphy's current form).

We won't be doing it loudly, but I have to imagine we are very open to moving him on this month if someone is interested. He'd be an incredible asset if we qualify for Europe, but feels like a luxury we can't afford.

We've probably added £30-35m in amortisation + wage costs since 2022/23, inclusive of incomings and outgoings.

He's using the 2022/23 numbers. The new accounts will show much higher revenue and player sales, but how high have the costs gone?

Can't wait until we release our accounts. Will be fascinating.

Since Dec. 13, the day before we played Leicester we were 12th with 20 points and a -2 GD. Since then we're: +9 on Brighton +9 on Man United +8 on Man City +8 on Chelsea +8 on Villa +6 on Bournemouth +6 on Fulham +2 on Arsenal +0 on Forest

Chelsea lose Villa / Brighton draw Newcastle win Absolutely perfect day

It’s the Kelly part that is terrifying.

Ugh, they were about to reset. Now two straight games without Fab.

This is where we’d really benefit from fresh legs to replace Isak.

Tino locked up their left side.

I don’t think it’s purely coincidence that we’ve improved since Tino came on.

I’d like for this game to be fun again.

I’d feel sick if we end up with a point.

Gordon had two chances to try to take it down the wing and pulled it back. Don’t love it.
