I'm hoping we're looking at players on their way up and it is going under the media radar. The likes of Bowen and Maddison came from the Championship for <£25m, we'll not get regular PL starters in that price bracket.

They've got this bloke as well, keeping an eye on him for FPL reasons as he's cheap: https://fplendeavour.digitalpress.blog/the-brighton-striker-who-scored-25-goals-and-got-10-assists-last-season/

Was just a playful jibe mate My interest in football is pretty surface-level these days - if it's not NUFC or Fantasy Football related then I'm not the obsessive I once was. Ashley wore me down. Fwiw I also liked the look of McNeill a year or two back but there is no excuse for his recent stats. We already have enough 'attackers' who chip in with almost zero goals / assists.

Congratulations on the new role as Dwight McNeil's agent, @KaKa

This season has got Bobby Robson 2nd season vibes. Spoiler - next season will be a bit of a dull slog but we'll qualify for the CL in 23/24.

If we're getting Harrison then consider me whelmed, but honestly our set of wingers just aren't good enough currently. If we get this lad in, someone who at least appears to have some end product, then we can look at the more sexy signing in that position in January or Summer 2023. Then our set of wingers is looking good, hopefully with Murphy and Almiron respectfully ushered towards the exit by then.

Usually means PL badges etc. I normally go for the one without.

Knew Hugo reminded me of someone, and it turns out it's Ar Di ♥

Fucking Chelsea man, how many attackers do they need. And they'll still be boring as fuck. Hate them.

That's what he said.

Finally some revenge for George Weah and Andreas Andersson.

Not sure I'll go for Haaland long term as Pep is such a relentless joy vacuum he'll definitely rest him a fair bit imo. Will probs have him to start with out of fear though.

The first half was pretty entertaining from both sides tbf. Second half awful though, so boring.

Kids want to go home and whack Minecraft on.

Love it how @Hanshithispantzdished out some flippant Milan bashing probably thinking there'd be no consequences, only for a very eloquent and knowledgeable Milan fan to march in and deliver a fucking sermon to him

Tuchel is doing a pretty crap job at Chelsea. They have spent a fortune on attacking talent in recent years and Tuchel can't get consistent returns out of any of them. Only finished 3rd last year because the sides behind them were so inconsistent, and they're boring. He's living off a CL run which wasn't particularly impressive either. Still it's the Champions League. Declan Rice - nah I'm still not getting it. Think I'll forever be living in another dimension while the hype rains down on this bloke.

I like it how this post ends with "btw we lost one game!"

this is deeply disappointing news to wake up to.

Far bigger and fancier names than Southgate didn't get us near a final post-96. It's a huge over-simplification to say get Mancini or someone in and we'll win the thing. I'd choose Southgate every day at the moment when the alternative is rolling the dice on another manager. Southgate has transformed the mentality and the ethos of the squad and beyond. We could be playing far more exciting football, definitely. I don't love watching the team and I personally do think there's a better way to play, with the players that we have. But hacking away at games and getting results was far too often not in the national makeup pre-Southgate. Like it or not, the last 2 tournaments have been huge successes for England given how shite we've been for much of the last 60-odd years. He's doing something right and while he's getting to the final 4 of competitions he deserves another crack at it.

I mean I am not his biggest fan, and tbh I totally agree he fucked the Euros final. And is far too negative generally. But a semi final and a final in his last 2 attempts, I think he's earned the right to manage us for a few more games lads

Hope those calling for Southgate’s head av ad a laverly jabberly bank olerday

He's just a fat greedy pig, in every sense. Them quotes, man Fuck off Steve Bruce. We hate you.

Well done, it's League One

We were faultless tonight like. Couldn't believe how quickly we got the ball back off Arsenal first half, and how we dominated possession. Then in the second half with less possession we opened them up a few times and never looked in much danger ourselves. Very exciting times to follow NUFC now, almost forgot what this was like after a decade or so of darkness. Amazing turnaround from Howe, staff and players.
