  1. Maxi brilliant, i'd be happy if we hadnt conceded a stupid goal
  2. Harrison has been class for a while lol dunno why any weren't enthusiastic about signing him. If he can keep doing that should be in england squad. We can't afford him now though
  3. It's interesting, as was said she would step back a bit when Chief Exec was found, I guess to essentially having decision making power in line with her shareholding (which I think was mentioned at some point planned to be diminished with presumably pif buying her out and her making a tidy profit). She seems to love it so much not that surprised sticking around, the only concern would be confusing chains of command. Who gives final approval if a signing needs to be made? Is it Eales, Staverley or the PIF chairman who it was said was asked to be consulted on. Staverley has to be said seems very good at getting decisions out of a group of people considering stuff needs to go by reubans and saudi arabia...
  4. I knew the reporter Steve Crossman growing up a bit and still find it weird seeing him on bbc
  5. Make a lot of noise, see if he hands in a transfer request move on. Barring serious injury his value is not going down anytime soon so no sense to sell. I am sure we will for over £100m and we will sign 3 Brunos to replace him, but if we sell now would be a dreadful message but I doubt we would
  6. I've been on tour of the Riverside (I was taking a group of kids as part of job) and their away dressing room is in an awkward shape and with a completely structurally unnecessary pillar through it to make sightlines really awkward for a manager trying to talk to all the players
  7. It really baffles me that people think you support an owner when you support a club. Fans of this club should know Sir Bobby's definition of a club and that holds true still. I remain conflicted over where the money is coming from but that is true of a lot of things and I am living with it.
  8. She is famously a nightmare to deal with. She had a massive falling out with Mbappe's family after he missed a pen and she had a go at Mbappe's parents for it and thats why chucked out of PSG. She was apparently demanding huge wages above Fernandes for example and while he is clearly a talented footballer nor is he a once in a generation talent or somesuch, there are plenty of similarly skilled midfielders out there.
  9. We don't have the bulk of £60m up front to spend due to ffp that's why we are offering low starting bids and spreading costs
  10. In fact I suspect that Rodgers has been told he has to sell to buy, he also knows owner is losing patience with him and he is likely to get the sack regardless in next few months as senses the squad isn't improving and so thought best for his own reputation if he makes a deal in public over no signings, refuse to sell anyone, and then walk at end of transfer window. He looks like he's walked away from a club that failed to match his ambition rather than sacked for not living up to it.
  11. He has made a few veiled we need to sign someone public pleas and nothing but rumours of people going out. I would be worried were I a leceister fan if the money taps are being closed up. They invested so heavily in academy i can't see the owners buggering off but maybe they're planning to? On the other hand Rodgers may have been told need to sell to buy at start of season and then he has refused to sell anyone. Were I their owner I would be running out of patience with Rodgers regardless by now.
  12. Plenty decent short defenders and rubbish tall ones tbh. Thats just bad
  13. It's poor yes men internally and just bad signing after bad signing after bad signing. No coherence, muddled thinking nad the squad is getting worse year on year
  14. What is going on with that Man United kit is it meant to be high viz for safety reasons?
  15. I hope so too but that is oh if everything goes well and that is fine, I am more critical with someone getting furious at the board for one poor performance that resulted in a decent away point
  16. Seen someone on athletic full of rage saying club needs to spend to avoid midtable mediocrity as if just being safe midtable isn't the goal anyway lol. I agree we need a little more but raging as if the board are expecting us to be competing for top 4 already
