Nicky Butt.

De Ligt is <£40m. Guehi will cost a minimum of £60m. I can't see us being anywhere near it.

If that's the case you should get a decent fee off Brighton for him in a couple of years.

It could be on the last page, but you'd still go looking for it. Plus, it's Big River's fav thread.

We're all moving towards the same page now.

You're using Ten Hag's word as gospel now, so if you want to play that game we can dig up some of his other quotes. Maybe start with the ones about how annoying Newcastle are and your shithousing tactics. Reverse checkmate. I'm fucking class at chess and all.

He was talking about Chelsea.

£325k a week as per Capology, which is never wrong when it comes to verified wages.

McTominay going to end up going for the same price as Gallagher, which is insane to me.

Best this sort of stuff is contained in here, don't you think?

Morning Rod. Hope you're having a good day so far.

Can you leave my thread please.

I'm working mate.

Probably, but I didn't forsee our unprecedented injury crisis. We had the better season though.

We do. City Arsenal Man United Liverpool Newcastle Chelsea Ten Hag wins the Europa League to make it 3 trophies on the bounce and gets sacked the next day.

The trophy streak is in jeopardy. I really don't know if I can go 6 years without a trophy again guys.

Your lists don't include preseason injuries. But yes, we are comparing different shades of shit, just our shit was slightly more stinky.

He won the FA Cup, which is arguably the biggest of the lot.

We've been over this 54. It's all up above.

Correct. Correct, but ours was still worse. That's all I'm saying. I don't want to die on any hill, apart from the one where Isak is the Swedish Martial.

Thank the Lord Sir Jim that this debate is in this thread.

Again, stated above. Multiple times. Yes we have a better squad than you, but we still had a bigger injury crisis. Facts all around.

First of, no we don't. We're in a big PSR pickle ourselves and have been selling young players, just not the value of Minteh or Anderson. But again, as stated above, this isn't about who has the bigger squad or who was better equipped. It's about the facts surrounding injuries.

I'd like to be very clear here, I'm not saying you weren't completely shafted by injuries. Your injuries were brutal, ours were just that little bit worse. We are of course better equipped to deal with them than you, but that isn't the debate. Malacia is essentially cheating in a way, as he was out an entire year but is a second choice player. It's why those lists should be taken with a pinch of salt. The reason we had the worst injury crisis was because of the centre back situation. I'm not twisting facts. That's just true. You were never in a position were Ritchie or Dummett had to start. And the league cup, Howe deliberately played fringe players and kids. That was a choice.
