  1. My normal go to for that sort of thing is Emerton or Boa Morte. Convinced we were signing both of them back in the day.
  2. I'd be amazed if we signed DCL like, the opposite type of player to Isak. If Everton are still knackered and we're able to get him for peanuts, fair enough, otherwise nah.

    Maybe not then. He does seem like one we brought in to flip for a few million, but would hope he's given a chance with our first team to show more than that before we decide to bin him.

    That's a shame, I seem to recall some West Ham fans were livid when he left them for us as they thought he had real potential. I was at least thinking we'd get 5 million for him from a championship club. Have his loan spells been that bad?

    Genuinely think Eddie is trying to avoid the cyclical 3/4 year thing, where players "get bored" of their managers tactics and everything starts breaking down for no apparent reason. That's the only reason i can think we seemingly half arsed the press this season. Think we would have done so without the massive injury crisis too, as it looked that way at the start of the season. The likes of Kelly and Tosin will allow us a bit more flex with our approach to defence. Just about the best possible start to the summer window we could have hoped for and we did it all without a Director of Fuck All / Sporting Director at the helm as well.
  6. I just hate the whole showmanship around it. It makes me want to gouge my eyes out when I see things like "here we go, coming soon!" Get tae fuck man.
  7. Still this tbh. Folk are spending a lot of time thinking / worrying about something that's fairly inconsequential imo. A good SD or DoF improves our prospects 2 or 3 years down the line by a fairly negligible amount. We'll still have a good manager working with great coaches, scouts and physios regardless of who replaces Dan Ashworth.
  8. They want to find their own John Laurinitis. Good luck to them, they're going to need it.
  9. Juve's is one that sticks out for me. Imagine the fume if we came out with a semi double lined N as our new logo? Guess it would have to be a small 'n' to be like for like but jesus, it's as basic as you get.
  10. This the same Ademola Lookman that Everton didn't fancy a few years ago?
  11. Every man and their dog constantly tells us that football is a results business though.
  12. That says as much about your workplace as it does your colleagues
  13. Nor should he. He did well at Spurs and finished thos season incredibly strong with a very disjointed Chelsea squad. I've no idea what Boehly expects.
  14. I know you're saying that tongue in cheek, but do you get the feeling that Mateta is a one season wonder or something has just clicked and he's going to bang them in for a few years?
  15. Sign for Chelsea and you're financially sorted for the rest of your life or stay with Ipswich on a relatively poor wage and potentially never get an opportunity like this ever again. You can see why the likes of him would jump at a chance like this.
  16. This is just missing some quotes from Sir Alex calling us absolutely all sorts and we have a full house.
  17. Doubt they'd be dead if the Cloudflare page is appearing, gotta pay for that I believe.
  18. Why is Kompany linked? Burnley were absolutely horseshit in the PL this season.
  19. Why even name their positions?
  20. The amount of shots I took as a kid because I wanted to be Laurent Robert.... I'll never forget my grandads face when he and my dad got back after that Spurs game. Genuinely thought he'd just seen two of the best goals he'd ever seen at SJP.
  21. Hadn't thought of that. Either way, howay Southampton
  22. Barnes v West Ham for me. His first touch to give him the space was really, really good. And then there's the strike.
