Luton kept their team together? Thought someone might snap up their LB.

Yep. Any kind of victory could help us massively. Too late for this window probably but January possibly.

Wonder if they lost their first case. I guess we’ll never know until the PL handbook changes or released again without change.

Surprised we aren’t linked to the French market more. Aren’t all the clubs struggling this summer due to the smaller TV deal?

Like the sound of being two footed. You sure he’s a good dribbler? Not what i saw on YT.

Whats Madueke‘s strengths as don’t know much about him? Clips I’ve seen and his dribbling looks poor.

Probably agreed the fee weeks ago Both clubs just looking to show one wasn’t robbed and another put up a fight to keep him. Will be around £52m + £3-5m add ons or very close.

Gallagher to Madrid off…

Again showing your lack of attention to detail. See my post just earlier. Made it clear I’ve never actually rated Trippier before he came to us. I also made it clear when he’s been fit for us he’s been great for us overall. Anyway it’s a point probably beyond arguing with you now. Lets re-boot the topic… Guehi for £65m or Branthwaite for £65m… Who would people choose?

You are welcome… Even the Chelsea cup game he wasn’t fit to play but Kraft got absolutely done by a bad challenge which he managed to hobble on until half time. Same half time Botman game off for Burn as he was struggling with a niggle. Gordon got that game too with a bad tackle in first minutes and couldn’t run it off and was replaced by Ritchie for almost a full half. Yeah he made a mistake right at the end. I know I was there and was gutted. He then missed a penalty in the shoot out. However he was never down to play the game in reality. He wasn’t fit.

I’ve already posted who we beat in November. He had a couple of poor games and moments but until he got injured he was arguably in his best form the Aug-Nov. He had a poor December playing injured. He dropped out the team. Returned probably too soon but considering the club nearly sold him also he recovered his form until injury ruled him out from March for the rest of the season almost with him only playing against Man Utd from the start and one moment aside for the offside line he got through it for an hour but again looked unfit and didn’t return. The fact you got the cup wrong merely highlights your memory might just be playing tricks on you.

What a load of rubbish. Also it was the League Cup not FA Cup.

I agree. Couple of short passes aside one causing Guehi to get booked if I recall he was literally 7/10 every game. The whole England left side selection for that tournament will be talked about for years to come when it dawns how we probably should’ve won it in the end bizarrely despite never playing that well.

Maybe. I think he wasn’t impressed with our performance against Palace away as it didn’t seem to work at all. He has however tried it when both fit which was the point I was making. I think EH main plan is for both wide forwards and even Central forward to empty the tank each game and replace with equal quality on 65mins every game or thereabouts to keep the press going.

Wouldn’t argue that. I’ve personally always thought throughout his career if you run at him like Diaz did when we played Liverpool he can be twisted and turned. Never particularly rated him at Spurs or watched him in Spain. He’s been great for us when fully fit though as a whole and I still will always argue that way too much was made of his and Burns form last season.

The fans drunken criticism was aimed at the team not Trippier. He since regretted it and was more just annoyed because his journey down suffered a breakdown and he taxied there (and I believe back!) costing him a fortune. He’s just a young daft lad who drinks on Low Fell. (No I don’t know him at all but my friend does and got the full story) Again more lazy narratives… Without check I know we beat Man Utd and Arsenal and Chelsea alone the same month we lost to Bournemouth as well as getting robbed in PSG.

He was carrying an injury. He had a bad game against Everton away and followed it up with a fairly poor game at Spurs. He had a last minute lapse of concentration in the cup against Chelsea. That was it. Same with Burn. He had a couple of tough half’s (Forest at home and another I struggle to recall) and a tough day all round against Luton at home. It’s a myth Trippier & Burn had a bad season.

He didn’t play the last six weeks apart from Man Utd away 15th May and got injured again His last start was Wolves at home 2nd March and we won 3-0. So I’d say you are exaggerating.

Such a repeated exaggeration. Trippier had a couple of bad moments as did Burn during games.

I think they could’ve made it bigger and used what space they had more efficiently.

Poor for Nante’s opening goal. Poor leap. Well beat in the air.

He did when they were both fully fit.
