Also they better discuss our 5-1 drubbing and not this boring 1-1 crap.

Fucking hell it's even worse in motion. Wow that's shit. They're aware they've got real footage right?

Yeah this new "VR" view is shit. It's like we're back in the days of the original PlayStation. Carney if she's staying needs to grow into this quick. She sounds so stunted.

This new MNF studio is a bit naff.

Wow. Chance to to award a penalty to Livarpool not taken.

Bah. This'll be chalked off.

lols

Thought that looked on tbh.

Looked stonewall to me that. He's fluffed the shot because he has a keeper hurtling straight into him. Had he just tapped the ball forward a tad it would be given all day long.

Booooooo

11 minutes This is ridiculous.

Spurs be lucky to finish with 11 the way this is going.

What a shit goal

Also Froggy

It's possible to be on friendly terms with your players whilst also having authority as the boss. It's not easy to pull off but Howe seems to be very good at it. He's also very good at having a very softly spoken public persona whilst having a ruthless streak behind the scenes. Let's him quietly get on with the job without attracting attention.

Make each half 30 minutes and stop the clock when the ball is out of play if that's what you want. Not this silly new system.

Lock this sick filth.

I guess what I'm saying is if it's more like 8/9 great teams you mention at the bottom it potentially could be a more gradual increase to the top rather than being its own mini league. We'll see I guess

Does feel it's going to be more competitive in the top half this year. One thing that means though is it might require less points than usual to achieve certain spots. All the teams can't win all the games. If the league is stronger that could pull City into the fold a little too but I still expect it's their title to lose. Top 6 and a decent showing of ourselves in the CL I think should be the target. Would represent an excellent season with anything else on top being gravy. Top 8 I think would be accepted if there was a good CL run and we were in that spot because of luck, injuries, etc rather than poor performance. Squad is starting to improve but it's still in transition. We are adding quality to many areas of the pitch but still quite a bit of deadwood to shift and lack of quality backup. 4 competitions is not going to be easy for us.

Says who? His market value is what someone is willing to pay for him.

From who? It's pretty obvious we have been looking to move him on. It's not like we were drowning in offers for him.

I've got your number.

Oh dear, oh dear, oh dear. Champions league has clearly taken its toll. I didn't expect to see it all get derailed so soon. Get the relegationometer thread back up because I'm a 10.

As much as I love ASM I must admit I don't see his long term future being here. We're probably not yet at the position where we're looking to upgrade on him as our squad depth isn't there yet and we're going to have loads of games next season. But he won't be first choice, and there's too much of a player there not to be first choice for someone.
