  1. Love eddie pointing out what he did with bournemouth, gets forgotten what he did there and should get more respect for that
  2. Rather dreading when we're so good this is every game like lol
  3. I agree League play may suffer and until we have proper strength in depth top 4 isn't going to be guaranteed but it's Europe let's have fun
  4. Really hard, went with Tripps just for leadership really
  5. It's cause Vini is right, Spain has severe racism problem evidence in institutional resistance to such criticism. I would say tell him to come to Newcastle where he'll be loved but Sterling etc do have to put up with a hell of a lot of shit too so glass houses and all (to clarify i mean nationwide, not singling us out lol)
  6. If City win champions league, which feels fairly likely I actually am not sure if Pep will last much longer, it's clearly his big goal with the club, as is owners. What is there to go for? Try for an unbeaten season? He got restless after getting Barca to their peak. Who knows. City will probably be dominant for the next few years. Can see Arsenal recementing themselves a top 4 team but doubt they will have another creditable title bid (could be wrong). Man U aren't any better than where they are that, if they get bought by Qatar as is rumoured they may but that will take a lot of time. Chelsea are going to be a clownshow for a while. Liverpool probably back a lot closer next season. We are still a few years out of a proper title bid. I wouldn't be shocked if we drop out of top 4 next year with european stresses (I am fairly relaxed about this, we are a work in progress and overachieved but i do fear there will be a bit of anger from some quarters). City will have to adequately replace Gundogan this summer, and De Bruyne soon. I imagine they will remain imperious next season and then it will be time to transition the team again. From how they are run unfortunately can just see them staying where they are. This is all if they don't get chucked out the league for cheating (lolol they will get a fine and move on)
  7. Kane would be daft to trust a competent manager appointment would guarantee much, probably still wouldn't last long
  8. Why would we sell Wilson man? He's a hares breath away from scoring 20 premier league goals, his value due to his age won't be astronomical and to sign a young forward with same output will be astronomical
  9. I know, I should just stop arguing a bad position really
  10. "Can I book Bruno's dad to give me a ride? No need to go anwyere we can just drive round Jesmond for an hour while I tell him how much I love his son that's all"
  11. Still can't believe this guy plays for us, somehow still completely mad. This is like if we hadn't missed out on Modric...
  12. And with our FFP issues we shouldn't allow ourselves to get fleeced.
  13. I suspect ASM will be sold this summer tbh, kinda hope i'm wrong but don't think he's really Howe's cup of tea. I am very sad about it. if were up to me though I would basically judge, does ASm want to be here and be in rotation but not guaranteed starting? Were I Howe i'd have a proper chat with him end of season on if he will be happy and committed as a squad player (with plenty of chances to play with europe) or do you want to be the star player at another squad? If the latter appeals to him more, sell him, no reason to keep hold of a player who is going to be unhappy. If he wants to fight for starting place and does (as I emphasize i think he has) buy into the squad ethic, then absolutely keep. No need to overcomplicate it.
  14. To clarify, I basically agree, it's more just on principle Champions League should be the champions, never going to happen, and probably a good thing. I do actually like seeing the Bruge of the world do a bit of giant killing now and then in it, but bit of me also thinks, knock out only, only a few, then there would be real bragging rights for winning it. It's definitely a nonsense mind.
  15. I am not sure about rumours of Tierney to us purely because I can't see Arsenal selling to direct rival for champions league spots
