New 5 year contract, and a top level RW (imagine if we'd somehow gotten Palmer or Kudus) to compliment him.

Franchise player.

Hatem's the most talented player I've ever seen wear the b&w (the derogatory 'street ball' comment  ...)

Bruno's our best ever CM for me, not particularly close either

Thought Matt had another good game tonight, not sure he’s able to perform at less than a 7/10. Been a great signing 

That’s his strength and weakness, he’s a 7/10 player throughout and will consistently give you that week in week out.
 

Don’t think he has levels above that but nevertheless more than adecuate for what we need atm

Trippier was the catalyst to the turnaround but he’s probably been the next most important player during the run. Already justified his fee.

Down to a 4 as well, one or two injuries can put a spanner in but form is key and 3 wins in a row does a lot for a team. Bruno needs more minutes, his qualities are clear but while results are coming in guess it's not a critical issue

Howe’s still got the plain-as-fuck British names fetish he had at Bawnmuf, then.

He clearly has a type

Re Tarkowski, I’d hope we’d learnt not to fill the squad with too many players from relegated/relegation threatened teams

Meh signing but theoretically strengthens the squad

 Still meh

Graeme Potter would be my #1 choice to come here, only English manager worth their salt

Assigning morality within a capitalist endeavour is futile. You can't pick & choose where you comfort of 'bad' lays, because that would be myopic.

Either acknowledge the entire system for the destructive shit show that it is or naught

Bloody get him signed up. Pay the fucking fee over many years if needed, just get it done. He’s what we’ve been crying out for ages. We’ve not had any mobile CMs in our time. Sissoko, Wijnaldum, then like nobody for ages? 

He reminds me of Parker & Bowyer in their Charlton & Leeds days, raw goal scoring ACMs.
 

Hope we sign him & a new manager ()

More chance of him playing for Arsenal regularly next season. They’ll not spend any money and Arteta has already shown he’s willing to bed in younger players.

We probably could sign him though, but we’ll never place a bid close enough.

Doubt they keep him, doesn’t suit their ‘style’ , think they cash out on him. Hoping we can get him near the £20m mark

I feel for Fulham but 

Baby Barfa 

Recent seasons in the Championship were a lot of fun, silver linings 

Nobody has mentioned playing Cisse off the right, with Hatem on the bench, and getting Willo to loft it forward as aimlessly as he can?

 

 

 

We deserve a Klopp/Pep like era. Allardyce, JFK, Roeder, Pardew, Bruce etc, we're overdue 

The difference an ex assistant from Bournemouth has made to the team is an indictment to Bruce. Stuck with this clown tho 

Guys like ASM & Ben Arfa have made watching this club tolerable over the last decade.

Wish we had a decent manager to be excited about because there's a core here (Wilson, ASM, Almiron) that can built into a stable Top 10 side and then more.

The football's so dire, ASM & Callum might manage to keep our heads above water but it's hard to watch nevertheless

Hendrick is an average player, should have saved the wages on someone that can improve the XI. At best, he's another body I guess :/

 

He does improve the XI. He's better than Bentaleb and the Longstaffs.

Sean offers more, Matt's worth is still tbd. He's at best equal to Bentaleb.
