Schaer for me

That’s a brilliant result. Matched them at their place and were woodwork away from a win
-
I’ve gone for an Antony card. For reacting to the challenge
-
Im sure Burn will give Antony an early welcome

Shelvey on the bench

I’ve got Proton VPN (free) and it works well but I’ve no idea about IPTV. We need a tutorial

Yeah it’s cool man. It’s a good discussion

I heard he was once in the same room as Eddie..
-
Im not saying he doesn’t acknowledge them. Of course he will. I just don’t think he likes using them as an excuse though and hence he minimises them in press conferences.

I found this quote from a Telegraph article from when Howe was at Bournemouth quite interesting: ‘Howe has previously turned to the books of John Wooden, the legendary American basketball coach, during times of adversity in his management career and there is a consistent mantra: “Complaining, whining and making excuses just keep you out of the present. Focus entirely on the process.” ‘ I wonder if that go some way to explain why he plays down injuries
-
The thing with that is that we did try to bring players in. It wasn’t that we didn’t try. We have a blueprint for the players we want though and a price we’re willing to pay. If none of them match that then we won’t bring them in. It’s a long term project and they don’t want to make panic buys and also as Ashworth and Eales have said recently £200m a window is unsustainable under FFP.

I wonder whether Howe did the same at Bournemouth re: injuries Did he also play them down there with terms such as ‘just a knock’?
-
Well that’s fair enough. It just seemed you were just jumping straight to the training methods conclusion. Its likely a mixture of issues
-
I really think Eddie’s ‘just a knock’ stuff is because he doesn’t want the opposition to know the truth and prepare accordingly and also to keep a tight ship within the club. Its annoying for us because we don’t get the full truth either but I see why he’s doing it .
-
Yeah that might have been it. We really badly need new facilities
-
I’m trying to find some evidence of it but I also seem to remember a past manager or someone linked to the club saying the ground at our training ground is too firm or something and it was looked into as a cause of the injuries we kept getting. Anyone else remember this or have I just imagined it??
-
I seem to remember non contact muscle injuries have been a problem for us for around 20 years. But no, it must be Eddie’s methods

oooh you dirty dog

PIF are trying to buy a stake in BeIN sports, according to The Athletic. How the tables have turned.
