Tiresias

Not every team will push high against us but by god if they do this guy looks lethal

Statement win. Look lethal going forward. Bring on Man City. (I still expect us to lose that mind lol) Ratings Pope - 7 (only low cos one shakey corner clearance) Trippier - 7 His deliveries seemed off today Schar - 9 Imperious I thought Botman 8 Nearly let a goal in falling on his arse, but assist! Burn - 6 Diaby had his number i thought Tonali - 9 Thought he may take time to settle, he looks absolutely class. Bruno - 5 Poor game by his standards Joelinton - 9 Doing the 'i am everywhere doing everything' and even had some nice short technicall passing thing Gordon - 9 Looked great, lovely assist, caused them problems Isak - 9 He's a proper finisher, so calm, should have had a hat trick Almiron - 8 Every blade of grass as ever. Bad cross notwithstanding Subs Wilson - 8 Unfortunate to be second choice Barnes - 9 looked very very dangerous Others not on long enough to earn score

(I kid)

I Hope Brummie's ok

BARNES GET IN

Friendship ended with Bruno, tonali new best friend

Sub Wilson off for that lol

Get longstaff on for bruno soon imo

so lucky not to concede there...

He was nowhere near goal with defenders coming back don't think it was a red myself tbh

ffs

Lol

As i understand it basically the Reubens are in charge of that side of it with Saudi backing

have to say i like that city away strip...

It's that time of the year again

the VAR hub Webb is showing off looks like full on bond villain lair

Think he's entitled lol

Chelsea's squad imo now trimmed looks like there is a reasonable team there that if say Brighton turned up at the start of the season with you'd think could have a shot at top 4 but they have spent psg level money to get there which just feels incongruous.

What's the pin for this? I will enter i always quickly forget about fpl tbh though Ignore me in

I think being in a premier League scouting department must be funny at times. I read they man u are super proud of their database with thousands of players, yeah but you don't fucking use it do you? Have hundreds of apparently obscure players and they sign their managers old players for bonkers money instead. I assume it is similar elsewhere, teams and teams of dedicated scouts chasing round talented youngsters in leagues around the world and then totally ignored for some expensive overhyped guy who plays in the same league

To be realistic speaking of trouble with ffp will mean sales, but starting next season i expect us to start some reasonable sales too bring in better. With market as it is miggy, willock even murphy could raise reasonable amounts. Equally if we don't make champions League (and I am on the doubt we will side) we will still have hopefully made steps up in commercial income from other avenues.

Boggles my mind how we got Bruno that cheap... The caicedo fee stinks of trying to one up opposition clubs with a fee. Just scout better. Brighton will bring in another lad they signed for £2m a year ago without anyone noticing.

Sad to see Japan go out they do play some of the nicest football

We should have some pull with champions league, I think some on here forget that. Spurs probably have more wages and the whole 'london effect'. I'm relaxed sure there are others. In many ways spurs being linked with a centre back is a warning sign...

I mean we benefit from it lol but the fit and proper ownership test is a joke. What isn't talked about anywhere near enough is it's failings further down the pyramid where dodgy owners running clubs into the ground is depressingly common
