These injuries are brutal like. We've performed admirably so far but they will ultimately derail our season at this rate tbh.

Jesus wept.

Anfield is currently operating at about 4k under capacity because there is no Anfield Road open right now. I think there's a chance you'd have to have a reduced capacity for a bit just because of the complexity of the build. But you could definitely limit the amount of time needed by building around the stand first - and would obviously time the final stages ideally for the off-season (which is what was meant to happen at Anfield).

Just noticed that as well as Manquillo and Ritchie we didn't include Krafth or Gillespie in the CL squad. This because we had to name Livramento and Hall in the A list (as we signed them rather than academy players) while in the PL we can include them as U21 so don't count towards the 25.

We'd only need to move if it was a demolish and rebuild on the same site, moving further across towards Barack Road/rotating the pitch as has been theorised. Which I don't think is ever going to happen. If it's a phased Gallowgate/East Stand rebuild you would only have a reduced capacity for a short period. If it's a rebuild on Castle Leazes then no need for any reduction at all.

Bruno hardly gonna have 3 weeks off like, Brazil have Colombia and Argentina during the break.

2 CL fixtures always kick off early each day and have done for a few years. Milan away was the same time.

It was. But was also orange in the 70s - which they've switched back to because of more positive associations. http://www.historicalkits.co.uk/Luton_Town/Luton_Town.htm

Not yet, was rumoured to be close.

If Botman is fucked I think we need a CB signing. Agree about extending both Schar and Lascelles though.

Tbf half of the league are shite now.

Nightmare if so like, as well as Jamaal has played. Got to go in for a CB in January if he needs the op.

Nope he wasn't included in the squad. The club grown rules meant we could only name 23 - so Ritchie and Manquillo were left out.

The bottom 3 are so bad this year.

Big Geordie in this thread is better than livescore.

Knee injury after having one in pre-season. Talented player who I was looking forward to seeing in the PL.

League Two Swindon losing 0-8 to NL Aldershot is wild. Edit: been revised back down to 7.

Excellent to see Murphy and Miley back.

Shame for Alex Scott if that's serious mind.

No world-beater but strong physically, eye for a goal, doesn't get many injuries and very coachable. Wouldn't have been an exciting signing and would have been an overpay but he'd have definitely done well in a Howe team and can see why there was genuine interest.

I know a lad who supported MUFC right up to his early 20s who I spied selling NUFC home and away tickets he couldn't make last season.

So the club have actually hired WAXXA full time. That's a cracking move.

Winks and KDH have looked like Xavi and Iniesta in that league this season

Aye I was going to mention him. Only thing is I'm convinced we'd be looking at a right footer rather than left.

For Neves I think you'd do a loan with a small fee with a buy option in the summer. In that context I honestly don't see how it can be disputed if we're paying his wages. It's no different in reality to another signing where player is signed for big fee but becomes unsettled and ends up leaving in such a way. It's going to be a common story with a lot of Saudi League players anyway. We might as well get involved just like we did in selling Maxi.
