Yeah two very solid signings for sure. Squad would immediately go up a notch.

When does his contract run out? They may decide to cut their losses in Jan if it means getting more money now.

Trossard out of favour at Brighton, I wonder if we’ll test the water there this month?

If we play as well as we can with the crowd up for it then I think we’ll win. Wilson will be gradually getting back to his old self after illness as he’s lacked a bit of of an edge recently even if his hold up play has been great. With more training Isak will be chomping at the bit whether he starts or comes on (probably the latter) and ASM is due a performance too. I hope Howe doesn’t start Murphy but for some reason I feel he may play it safe 1st half with Joelinton probably on the bench. Our defence has what’s needed to take care of Mitro I think especially Botman. That said they’re a good side and crucially they’re playing with bags of confidence. There’ll be a few fans who might mistakenly think this will be an easy walkover. Have a feeling Isak may announce his return this weekend.

Agreed. We have our list of players we want and if one of them is attainable for the right price then we’ll probably sign one of them later in the window.

It’s very hard to say isn’t it. I think they might have a bit of a go if we draw them out but they’ll be aware of teams having success playing a low block. I think ASM/Isak might be important in this one to open them up at some point. I wonder if he decided to start one of them and replace with the other after 60-65 mins.

Yeah I’ll do 1 pint max but that’s usually if I’m in a pub in the lakes after a long walk and I’m not going to be driving straight away and I’ll usually have a soft drink too. Never more though and almost always never anything.

Surely dropped for Sunday and fined

Idiot

Sorry yes I edited meaning the weeks beginning the 23rd and 30th, so it’ll be the Tuesday or wed of those weeks

Weeks beginning 23rd and 30th I think I saw

You need genuine attacking quality to beat top teams too whether that’s from the start or from the bench.

Isak smashing one in at the Gallowgate for you!!!

Fair enough, good points ? Be interesting to see who we goer.

He needs to get stronger too which he will. They’ll have him on a strength and conditioning programme and he’ll learn from Wilson and others and from game experience itself.

I think so yes, gets wiped after 1st half of season

Yeah think his name is Glen, my pal knows him

It’ll be interesting to see what Howe does with the lineup in the coming fixtures in terms of getting Isak and or Saint involved more to carve teams open. Huge opportunity with other teams around us inevitably dropping points as they play each other.

I guess the point I’m making is brining another quality midfielder in would take us up another level. Someone with Tielemans ability even if he hasn’t been bang on recently. I think Bruno, Joelinton, Willock in midfield with ASM or Isak left wing forward is our best line up fwiw. That was basically our lineup v City.

Same team again I’d imagine with Saint and Isak to change things up. Don’t see Howe changing it unless there’s a niggle here or there or he feels he can attack Fulham better with either Isak or Saint left wing forward. Rare excursion up into the gods for this looking forward to it.

A player like Tielemans would slot in perfectly into our midfield. Would take us up another level.

His attacking heading is atrocious ? Thankfully he’s quality in most other areas.

Looks like he’s lacking some zip still after recent illness bur hold up play at times awesome.

Righto mate ? Move on ffs, enjoy the fact we’ve won tonight eh son, semi final and all that ?

His movement and passing is outrageous like, just amazing to watch at times.
