Based on that description, it sounds like it could be a rebuild job potentially.

Throwback to this video, the feeling of pride and the emotions post Ashley was encapsulated perfectly:

It almost like he tries to form a discourse narrative around everything he does in order to get more engagement. Shock horror.

If you want to get a real flavor of the derby, I would really recommend the book "The frying pan of Spain" by Colin Millar. From listening to people like Sid Lowe, I think most people in Spain consider it to be the best, or atleast the most fierce.

I don't know if it's just the mustache, but I swear Gibbs-White looks a bit like Lionel Ritchie

That list still amuses me, Howe supposedly worse then: Marco Silva Gary O'Niel Andoni Iraola Thomas Frank

I think he kind of goes under the radar with how useful he is/ can be, I think he also just needs that first goal to get that monkey off his back and he'll start to be a bit more relaxed in his play. I know stats can be deceiving but his FBref is genuinely outstanding:

Gets a world class assist. "He was quiet when he came on". Howay man 20 minutes in the pitch. 2 chances created 1 big chance created That's pretty good like

Julen Lopetegui to AC Milan supposedly.

He was one of the best players on the pitch against Spurs in a role that I don't think I've seen many players do before, a number 8 cross wing back, given that's not his natural position, to have the tactical malleable mindset to be able to do that, shows to me there is definitely a player that at worst could be a very decent 4/5th choice CM, as a rotational option, and a player that could cover a magnitude of different positions. I also think he has a very very good mindset too, which I think will help him no end, the fact he was livid after the Sheff United own goal speaks volumes imo.

Tap in merchant doing Poch dirty

There will be a brand new team in the EFL next season, after Barnet lost to Solihull earlier. It'll be one of: Solihull Moors Bromley Altrincham Who gets promoted, such a piss take what happened to Gateshead, as they'd stand a decent chance from that lot.

Without the points deduction, Everton would be on the same points as Brighton. Roberto de Fraudzi

I think Isak is now in our top 10 tbh.

Not sure if it's been mentioned but I'm glad Derby have gone back up, proper club that is now on the other end of some horrid times.

I'm so glad that Penalty got overturned towards the end, would have been gutting for Murphy.

2 more needed to become our second highest Premier League goalscorer.

Weird game, amazing result, but at best a "Meh" performance, but the result is all that matter this time of year, so whatever I guess, Eddie must have given them a right bollocking at half time like Burn MOTM imo.

Hilarious scenes in the Colchester game, both teams need a draw Colchester to stay up, and Crewe to finish in the play-offs, and its 1-1 in extra time. So Crewe just pass it between their center backs for 5 minutes, with everyone else on the pitch is standing still and not doing anything

That was a class assist from Barnes.
