Exactly. We get a winner (which we could’ve easily) and the narrative is completely different. Sunday’s performance wasn’t any different to last season’s down there or the season before. I’d actually argue it was the best of the three possibly. Good end to the window and the narrative will change quickly enough.

Ipswich’s even worse if you’ve not seen it yet.

3-0 was his prediction.

Liverpool’s pre-match build up always seems to get a lot of special uninterrupted coverage.

I think it was one of those that if it hit his head first then same part of arm/shoulder they possibly give it. However the arm was the only part of the body it touch and also the only part of his body ahead of Burn so can see why they made the call they did.

We did when we finished 4th many games early on. Judge us after Everton away.

I’d stick Hall on for Longstaff.

Looks like we are running in mud. Especially in midfield. A very typical Bournemouth away performance so far. Hopefully we wake up second half. Got to start winning our 1v1 battles. Gordon’s form away from home continues to disappoint.

I know he doesn’t. I think he will this season after what happened last season with injuries. Especially as Kelly’s fitness possibly needs to be managed carefully going off his record. The other reason is they are very different types of fullback and can see Hall suiting certain opponents much better. Just a hunch 🤷🏼‍♂️

Can see Hall playing mainly at SJP and Kelly away from home by and large depending on other teams wingers.

I see Southampton have moved the away fans. Wonder what the reasons are. Psychology I’m guessing.

Will be interesting if they cup tie him next week.

I think the most interesting thing in that you don’t hear as it cuts off but if you pause it at the end you’ll read that all the data seems to value him at only 38m euros which is where i had him (£35-45m) but we are being charged for Euros and Chelsea sell-on.

This. Especially first week of the season. Glad we appealed and showed them up somewhat. No way they could make it 4 games for a frivolous appeal which tells the whole story really.

From what I’ve seen of him I’d be asking the question in what world would you want to pay £50m for Eze. Olise was the value AND the quality. No wonder we threw our hat in the ring early to get him.

As I’ve said before none of this can be helping matters. First he’s selling to buy Everton. Now he’s trying to buy Palace…

Very mature statement. Fair play.

That would be a terrible signing. The centre of our back four needs pace above everything. The one thing he lacks.

Seen him in Rosie’s. Not sure if thats a regular routine mind

Is it still then? I only ask because i was quite surprised to see the ex Blackburn forward turn out for Ipswich from the bench last Saturday lunchtime. Felt like he’d only signed the night before but I’m guessing he wasn’t after all.

The cheek of these lot

Basically where I’ve been from day one. Only reason I want us to get HIM is he’s is who EH wants it seems and I back his judgement. Anything over £52m is an overpay and will be used against us down the line in negotiations for other players which just makes the deal even more expensive. If there’s no major update by tomorrow lunchtime I’ll be surprised. Trust the process though either way 👍🏻
