Super Duper Branko Strupar

Maresca's going to struggle to get a tune out of these, mind. Far too many players way off their best, it's going to require an epic coaching job to get them playing as a cohesive unit. Add to that he's been hired as a yes man who will have certain expectations. He'll probably be gone by February.

Stuff like that is why Jackson isnt good enough.

I hope they at least reduce the ban. 3 games for that is madness.

Should've cashed in on him this summer at peak value. Mandy giving him a new contract, there's a reason she's been kicked out.

They need neither

I hope for your sake Chelsea draw a blank.

Diallo's been awful

Liverpool fans expect Jota to start and are generally on the Quansah train over Konate. I was hoping they'd start Gakpo up front as he's decent price and their fixtures are very kind.

Think Im happy to start with this. I have 2.5m to play with should I need to make any big changes.

Theyve got a very kind first 7 games. I imagne it will.

I think that's a bit harsh. Im not advocating us buying Gallagher as I dont think we need him, but he's shown some real quality. He's had his dips and poor performances but I think a happy, confident, well coached Gallagher would be a very good player. He played really well for Poch the second half of last season. Probably finished it as their 2nd best player.

Genuinely worse than the Ashley years in here atm

Dread to think how Hope Solo is celebrating.

They're not getting much for Gilmour though are they? Rutter was Leeds' best player last season, can't even remember him playing in the PL though.

They paid about 35m for him. Leeds fans are furious the clause was only ~5m more than they paid.

Build the wall. Build the wall.

Thought it was Brandon Foster at first

"I know Garth was famous for sometimes choosing unusual formations like that, but I am going to do things a bit differently. In my team, I promise players will be in their correct positions for starters!"

No, Prophet. There should be more info NOW!

Newcastle-Online league now showing for me. Ta.

Brush up on your ball. He's clearly shite and needs turfing asap. Preferably to some hell hole, the way he's stuck around here, causing us to lose Minteh.

no chance
