Aye he's a good player, the fee was absurd and it's funny he's now a glorified set piece specialist because Arteta apparently cannot set a team up without Saka in it.

We got Bruno and Tonali for not much more than they paid for Rice Rice is obviously quality player, but they could have signed James Ward-Prowse and probably have picked up more points this season.

This might be the football vs business side Howe is talking about. The business side is to scream at Dubs and call him a paedophile because he's asked for a raise, the football side is to give him a few grand to keep him sweet and look amicable to the rest of the squad, then go on and win the league.

Probably not best pleased the FA forced him to swap him for Elliott Anderson

And it's not even close.

And isn't this, at it's core, what football is all about?

Forgit about that one, mental on his wrong foot, goes into the top with Martins'

Robert's were usually further out but hit with an arced trajectory, I may be forgetting a proper stinger from him though. I just love strikes where the ball seens to barely move in the air and arrows past the keeper, Isak's is probably the best example as you can see the ball barely turning on it's axis once it was hit.

It's on par with Isak (Liverpool) and Ben Arfa (Everton), only beaten by Martins (Spurs) imo, for strikes on the past 20 year that I can remember. Such a shame it was 'wasted' against Bromley, no keeper in the worpd saves it

Depends what he's getting offered elsewhere.

Fair few in the home end probably could sing it like

Sorry?

Murphy has been one of the best players in the league since Brentford like

He's got a good shot from outside the box. I think he's struggling atm as we're either shagged and hanging on, or are out of sight by the time he's on the pitch.

Eh? His best utility is when we need a goal, not to hang onto a draw.

I don't know why I need to find individual performances against Bromley encouraging from players who I've seen play better against PSG?

Not encouraging? We know his limitstions, we've seen him make over 100 Premier League apearances. He's thanfully out of the stadting XI now, he's a good professional, will keep himself in top shape and step back into being a reliable squad player. He'll be behind Miley soon.

Still baffled as to why people are desperate to get shot of him like. If we can can sign him on a contract (possibly on lower wages) then we're sorted for a backup keeper for next season.

Not watched that, but we've been shattered and defending well 2nd half in games but these "EDDIE HOW HAS BROKE THE LEAGUE WITH THIS NEW 5-5-0 FORMATION" videos are slightly OTT.

Aye I haven't seen much of Elliott so cannot say much how he would be on the wing, only 21 too.

I think our RW needs to be able to put up numbers, like 20 goal contributions a season, similar to Gordon.

I don't think it's short memories with Pope like, we're becoming a better side in possession and I think his kicking is becoming more noticeable. Teams know that if they can get a forward within a few yards of him he's going to kick it into touch. He's a much better keeper than Dubs, and much better off his line, he'll no doubt reclaim his place.

I don't get the issue with renewing his contract like, he's not a bad number 2 and would be an excellent 3rd choice.

It's just hard to quantify how much our recent form is down to being able to trust the keeper not to launch a backpass into the Milburn stand, it could just be a coincidence, just thing there's no need to test it out until Dubravka makes a clanger.
