  1. 15 minutes onwards is absolute gold! "I'VE GIVEN UP £30 AN HOUR OVERTIME TODAY!"
  2. For all the knackers like Exile and so on I can't help but like this bloke Wincey and Raymondo's Grill
  3. Agree regarding Schar. On the point of pace, you're absolutely right that we lack pace at the back. I do think its a two part issue though and we defintely need to address that in the summer. However, losing Pope has ruined our press IMO. His sweeping really helped the back 4s lack of pace. We're dropping slightly deeper yet still trying to press and its exposing the lack of pace in midfield. On the game itself though, a few things I noticed That felt a bit like Forest away last season. Sets us up nicely for a good run to end the season#. Longstaff needs hooked. His confidence looks utterly shocked. Takes too long releasing the ball. Murphy is really poor, but his directness is effective. Comfortably Isak's best game for us. Him dropping deep and linking up play was brilliant. Barnes out to inward runs should be a dream for Bruno if we can move him up the pitch Dubravka's starting position is a major issue. He's way too deep. Chuffed for Eddie Howe, that felt like a big game for him.
  4. Really happy for Howe yesterday. After the 3rd I was beginning to question him & whether it was beginning to go West. Subs forced his hands to an extent, but everyone of them is playing for him. Reassuring to see him take ownership of the Kratth substitution as well.
  5. He was a class above everyone today. Coming deep and laying out wide.
  6. VAR and the officiating is absolutely ruining the game for me now like. Just totally shite.
  7. Good grief, he's shite. Can we play rush goalie?
  8. A bit of a rogue shout (Feel free to shoot me down). If we're stilll needing to box-clever this summer would Rodrigo Muniz at Fulham be a shoult? 7 in 17 in the PL this season, 22yo and a different type of player to Isak. I don't he's started a bucket load neither as Jiminez was the starter.
  9. It all feels very amateurish. The public courting of Ashworth, asking for public money for the stadium and comments regarding Greenwood. The self-entitlement that people should just roll over for this 'institution'. Do your business behind closed doors. Put up or shut up.
  10. I don't know if anyone else noticed a slight tweek last night. Bruno seemed to sit a tad deeper and didn't press whilst our CBs pushed up really aggressively. Felt like it really cut the distanced between our usual flat midfield set up and defence.
  11. It wouldn't though? We don't have a no6 and he would do a solid job for half a season.
  12. Does it though? We're run the right way nowadays and if they get an offer they can't refuse then we'll sell. But if selling one player opens the door to a couple more players then it does make sense. FFP is rubbish however.
  13. He's 29 with 2.5 years left on his deal. Might be the last time we get the opportunity to get a decent fee considering his age. With him almost being here 5 years would any sale really open the books in terms of ability to spend? Love the lad, but could fetch a reasonable fee.
  14. After days of stressing about the game it turned out to be a waste of time. They're nothing. For all the "We'd give PSG a game" & "Hume will smash Gordon".... They're feeble. The gap was enormous. It'll only get bigger. We'll get bigger. They'll languish and pretend they're footballs good guys. Honestly, that was as routine as it gets. It's a shame it wasn't 10. They'll spend tonight under a weird comfort blanket and its quite frankly fantastic. I hope the future haunts them. They're a fart in the wind.
  15. ESL is much worse. It's nothing more than a way to bypass FFP and generate unlimited cash. Footballs morals went a long time ago but this is a load of rubbish. Real Madrid claiming "The good of football" is absolute tosh. If anything, this put's pressure on scrapping of FFP. Reality is the "Super League" already exists in the form of the Premier League.
  16. If we ever entertained the idea of any other competition other than the PL and that's me firmly checked out.
  17. Caught up with Dan Burn Fozcast episode yesterday and he touched out how Sandro can speak really good English these days. Hopefully this will help him settled into the area during his ban and immerse himself in the team / understand our tactical approach.
  18. Completely mixed emotions after that. I love this team and manager so much it's hard to have anything other than pride. The injuries is the sickner for me. We've been completely hamstrung for large parts of the season and shafted with draws in domestic & European competitions. We've still performed admirably and took it to the last game. The players, Eddie and the Club will have learned a load through this.
  19. Pretty relaxed despite the result last night. Four points off fourth and players hopefully returning in the next few weeks. Spurs will either be a masterclass or an utter car crash with their high line.
  20. Honestly struggling to be angry despite VAR last night. On the cusp of December, half a squad missing and still in all competitions. We're absolutely smashing it! We're within reach in the league and we can still guarantee some form of Europe. The sheer depths this team keeps going too will never not amaze me. We're over performing & consistently sticking two fingers up to every one who writes us off. We won't have a harder season than this (FFP), we will only improve and we'll be hated even more. Give me a team and manager that plays the way we do week in and week out... I'd die a happy man!
  21. Really pleased to see warmth from the crowd towards him. Imagine he'd have been incredibly anxious around the reception he'd get.
  22. This is it! Champions League at SJP playing the best of the best. Excitement doesn't even cover it today. Overriding emotion is pure pride! I've got absolutely no doubt they'll go out and leave everything on the pitch. Our time to showcase who we are. HWTL!
  23. Pleased for him today. Won the ball high up the pitch which led to the penalty (I think)?. Slowed the game down with Bruno really well at 2-0.
  24. 7 points and 1 win from our first 6 games last season. Sunday isn't a must win, but we should be getting 3 points regardless.

    Nick Pope

    His pen save was fantastic by the way. Dips right ever so slightly then dives left. Sold Toney down the river.
