    Rafa Benítez

    The only worry people really should have is Ashley.
  2. http://www.dailymail.co.uk/sport/football/article-5728415/Southgate-no-fool-isnt-play-Pirlo-role-England.html Not tourist enough. What a car crash of an article.
  3. At least it'll be a good group of buddies on tour.
  4. It's a no brainer because he's been absolute class, more like.
  5. He's bigging them up because every penny matters for this stupidly rich mug, and he wants to get away with the crap squad we have. He's happy to ride his luck yet again, and I have no idea why people try to defend his daft points.
  6. Horrific, generic statement. It just sounds like he's planning to run the club in exactly the same manner as always. Absolute mug.
  7. So clear. Ayoze needed to make more of that though.
  8. Then there's no point, is there? Nice bit of sentiment from Rafa, he said in his presser he would try and keep them involved. Under 23s and Under 18s already on holiday - neither have had a game for weeks. Meh. Fair enough if we're talking players who's been here for a long time, but apart from that it really is just a waste.
  9. What a bench No idea why we're not seeing any youngster in place of some of those.

    Sunderland

    These new potential owners would not fill me with a lot of confidence if I was a Sunderland supporter.
  11. What makes you think he's a better defender than Dummett? Also, what makes you think anyone in the Scottish league could make it here? Don’t get me wrong, Dummett has surpassed my expectations of him this season, and done a lot better than I thought he was capable of, and I’d be happy to keep him as a squad player. However, I think he’s probably reached the peak of his talents and is unlikely to progress further than what we’ve seen. From what I’ve seen (admittedly only on the telly in Tierney’s case), Tierney has far better pace and ability to link both defensive and attacking duties. He could press higher up the pitch than Dummett is capable of, and deal more effectively with pacey/skilful opposition players when they are attacking. He’d also be much more able to overlap whoever we had playing LW and has a better final ball (imo). However, like others have since said, unfortunately I can see him leaving Scotland for a far better (or more progressive/forward thinking and owned) team than us.
  12. That's about the most grey wishlist I've ever seen.
