Fucking hate this attitude tbh. I want a cup. I want the players to fight for every game, that's how you get the right mentality. This ditch everything for the premier league, fuck that. It's never alright to lose to a league 1 side.

what we deserve

Our second string is what we have been familiar with pre howe really. It's why I still think we may not finish top 4, a few midfield injuries we get this. Murphy is so bad though, we need a wide attacker and a midfielder this window imo to fix this

We are poor

Goal of the season

They gave Cucurella those wages? Insane decision making all round.

I dunno I quite like imagining he's auditioning for the next dr who

Banner idea - mock up the iconic Hatem Ben Arfa Hope poster but with Pope and it just says Pope. Would be a very niche joke

Definitely need a midfielder, and I would prefer a defensively minded one who can pass very calmly and play keep ball. Our intensity is our strength and our pressing, but there will be some times we need to slow things down a bit and hold the ball. Also we are too reliant on Bruno I feel, not that that's bad, teh squad should be built round him but he gets injured and we dont have anyone any where near his quality near his position

Awful

In fairness I don't know the place well enough for names lol I remember the route i walked and the layout just about but starting to have doubts lol

Truly the most exciting news...

I once had a very disappointing meal at some trendyish restaurant not too far from there. Arrived about 2 hours late and was nothing special

Fuck that I want a cup. I'd be happy finishing 6th and winning the FA cup tbh. IF we get top 4 amazing, but also will be ahead of schedule and a nightmare with all the extra fixtures against really high quality opposition we have nowhere near the depth. Sensible rotation, not sacrificing it though.

that shirt pull, we did get lucky there lol

Shut up you! Ooops!

Don't worry it's never going to happen

Pope - 8 did was needed, maybe would have been higher if he had more to do but was well protected and had one poor clearance Trippier - 8 - My motm, the problems came down the other side largely Schar - 8 - A rock Botman - 9 - A hard place Burn - 6 - Maybe harsh as was better later but if we were going to concede today it was probably from him being rinsed by Saka Longstaff - 7 - Excellent shithousery but limited passer Bruno - 6 - Maybe harsh but one of his poorer performances was too keen to offload the ball with too much ambition and lost it a few times Willock - 7 - Just doesn't offer too much at this level but lots of hard running Joelinton - 8 - Should have scored, and was doing is here there and everywhere act Wilson - 6 - Not sure his fault, he was getting fouls blown for breathing on them Almiron - 8 - Almost entirely for his superb tracking back Wood - 4 - Was useless. Needs binning asap. Murphy - 4 - Gone backwards. ASM - On too late to do anything or get a score We desperately need another defensive mid in to shore things up and a winger. With Isak back hopefully Wood will be less of a thing but would be nice to see him replaced too

i'm really annoyed we've drawn 2 games and somehow man u have caught us despite spending a substantial part of teh season being total dogshit. We have not been dogshit all season and yet...too many draws i guess

I'll take that!

Too old for most Popes tbh

POPE GOD

still can't get over that murphy cross, how are you a winger and so completley out of control with your crossing, surely he practises those daily

ooooooh close

Just teh slightest contact and they fall over cos the ref is always going to give it
