No, probably too early in his career to go to a club our size. Hope he lands in a team with Top 6 ambitions, at least. His work at Rayo has been amazing. I'd love him. Everything about him is right. Mentality, aggressiveness, style of play...

Rumors that Jémez is leaving Rayo at the end of the season :frantic:

It is a bit s***. Modern football, money, etc... Anyway, I still have the memories of winning the CL with Unicef shirts and a mostly homegrown squad. That was some of the best stuff football can ever give me.

I haven't bought a shirt since we took on Qatar. Anyway, contract runs for just one more season and most likely the next board won't extend it (although we will surely take on a commercial sponsor, sadly it's way too much money nowadays to wave it away).

Watched a bit of Odegaard today, by the way. Technically good, completely overran physically. Needs to get up to the pace of Segunda B.

Villarreal are a treat, too.

Well, that was a fun game.

We haven't won in Bilbao since 2011. Hope we break the streak tonight.

HE'S HERE FOREVER

Terrible half so far, this

Had that come off

Needed the replay to see our guy playing him on. Didn't see him.

Everything Colback touches turns to shit.

That was miles offside man, ridiculous

Colback is shocking. How come is he untouchable?

Uuuuuuyyyyyy

Great clearance imho.

Ameobi man, don't dribble in there.

You're having fun!

You gotta hit that one man, dwelt too much on the ball.

Carver may not be ideal, but just removing the Pardew malaise from this set of players is enough to provide decent football, imho.

Ooooh, nicely thought by Cabella there.

You're looking good to be frank.
