I’m generally optimistic about our players but Murphy is someone I’d given up on until early 2023. Pleased for him and us, will be good back up

Agreed, either drop them divisions like in Italy or multiple season point drops

Can see that the charges were dropped, the whole thing has been very hush hush compared to some cases

What ended up happening with Player X, did he play elsewhere after being terminated? Or have criminal charges brought against him? I can see that there’s a player who now plays for Lyngby in Denmark which I’m sure is well below their level

Sure, but football might be hypocrisy’s safest space and I’m happy to accept that a lot of the time even though I don’t in other walks of life

Probably only need 32 points to stay up. Dyche and their home support will get them fired up as victims. Feels far too coincidental that this has broken in the season where they’ll stay up

Feel like this needs more work, is that the first verse or chorus?

Klopp, then Arteta, then Hag

There was a standing ovation after the line, led by Cole Palmer who did one of those slit-your-neck gestures while mouthing the word Gordon. Grealish then bounded in and went in two footed on a cardboard cut out of Gordon to rapturous applause

“I can say on the record, Anthony “street rat” Gordon will never be part of my plans”

Recipe for disaster that. That club is desperate to destroy itself

Does Village Idiot not post anymore because of the shambles that is Barcelona or because we shit on them nowadays?

It’s been nice to see Sterling play well this season. He looks like he’s still got a few more years in him at the top level. Shame he went to Chelsea

Probably a fuck you to Southgate

Would be their best player for the next decade if he did, fair play if he goes over

I’d personally keep him but under the understanding that he has no hope of playing more than one in three games or something or that he would only come on from 60 mins. However, I’d replace him in the sense of getting a second striker who is reliably fit even if they don’t have the same output as Callum just yet. I can’t see why he’d ever want to leave as his body won’t ever allow him to play more than games than he does for us

I love Willock, one of my favourite players but this is a time we really need him to show his best for us. Can’t afford him to drift out of games too much

We’re absolutely going to have to do loan signings in January. There’s no way around it sadly

Realistically we’re fucked in the run up to new year but Wilson’s body will keep breaking down periodically next year so I can see us doing unprecedented loan work in January

Aye, we’re fucked like. We’re going to need whoever is available to perform at a ridiculous level if we’re to get through to January with any hope of staying in top five contention

This is a fucking joke

Would be a great option as a back up striker but it’s not really working with Isak having injuries as well. We need another striker and realistically, Wilson’s race is almost run given his age and injuries so we’ll need two strikers in the next year Id say. One as a proper back up to Isak and another as a development project

Interesting that Newcastle are faced with a 10-month ban for Tonali due to his actions at Milan. There need to be punishments for Chelsea for any historical actions of corruption in the same way that Olympic athletes are stripped of their medals years down the line

Would buy myself enough bandages to go for full body coverage and honour the man by turning up as a mummy in his first game back in our colours

Completely agree, he doesn’t beat a man down the line with trickery but he beats his man by cutting inside with his pace and close control. He’s clearly never going to be an elite dribbler and the signs aren’t there that he’s going to beat his man down the line and fizz crosses in but I do think we’ll see a lot of him cutting inside and getting shots off or cutting it across the 20 yard box to a free man
