Was having a conversation with a ST holder at the SOL on Friday night and they were trying to claim that us finishing 10th to 17th would be seen as a disaster. Reckons that their manager won't last til Christmas if they aren't looking like running away with the league as well. Strange bunch.

I'm not going to be there as it's still cricket season, so all for the boycout.

I think we need to change the chant, from 'fat cockney bastard' to 'fat greedy bastard'. Reckon that will give us more credibility amd stop those southern journos from being able to spout their usual shite.

He's a very decent seam bowler, so at least he'll have that to fall back on.

Reckon this will make us go back in for Ozyakup?

Meh.

*Fret

We will as well, I reckon. Somewhere around the £50m mark, whilst breaking our transfer record. I just think jumping in here to pile on the misery every time another club is linked with a transfer north of like £15m is a pointless exercise. Regarding the left behind stuff, I just think if say 10 clubs are in similar situation to us in terms of transfers, then I genuinely can't see how we're being left behind. Nailed it.

His first season there was more AM but now he's just a ball winning/recycling CM, maybe to keep Salah and the fullbacks higher up the pitch. He still creates as much as Henderson, who sees more of the ball and makes many more passes, presumably as the go-to player who collects from the defence. Some numbers you can play with, with Shelvey and Diame in for comparison. http://www2.squawka.com/comparison-matrix#premier_league/2017/2018/jordan_henderson/819/819/86/0/p|premier_league/2017/2018/jonjo_shelvey/819/819/523/39/p|premier_league/2017/2018/mohamed_diam%C3%A9/819/819/922/39/p|premier_league/2016/2017/georginio_wijnaldum/819/641/7968/36/p|premier_league/2017/2018/georginio_wijnaldum/819/819/7968/36/p#total_score/key_passes/chances_created/assists/pass_completion/avg_pass_length/goals_scored/total_duels_%/fouls_committed/fouls_suffered/total_passes/total_forward_passes#total Playing bread and butter CM in this way, and not just "ghost in and score but otherwise invisible" AM, suggests he is much more useful that he looked for us. For us, I think the goals he scored came from very few shots, famously all four in that Norwich game, so that level of production is unlikely to be repeated. In 32 games he never misplaced a single pass last season?

I would 100% have him back. Think he could be great under Rafa.

All those types of Liverpool shirts are absolutely shite imo

and relax

Same thing could be said about the Merino deal. What's the hold up? Could be anything, but we all know it's going to happen. Wonder if the Sociedad fans are getting their knickers in a twist.

Patheic the way some people are going on like. What does it matter if we announce it now or next week? There's zero indication to say the deal may not be happening.

We need to do a proper Rafa job here, contain them in the first half, hold onto the ball as much as we can and get them chasing us before having a real go in the second half.

Kodija? Are we mental, he's nowhere near the level we should be looking at, stop kidding yourselves that he's decent

Why does he feel the need to seek validation from people on Twitter by being so open? What an absolute clown.

What does 'first option' actually mean? All we have to do is match what someone else is willing to pay and they have to accept ours first? Surely that means fuck all if Bayern etc are in for him.

Would take that.

.....Kenedy!

Misterrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr

White. Shorts.
