That's annoyingly backward. Didn't they have it set out so the smaller teams always got the gate takings too? Would be a shame to lose that.

Milan vs Napoli at the San Siro last season on Piątek's debut 0-0 draw but it was a decent game. They played the exact same tie again 3 days later in the cup and Milan won 2-0 with Piątek getting both

Shite?

I feel, Hughesy, that your opinion might be a little biased can't believe someone has seen through my cunning disguise. Plot twist: He's actually Andy Griffin.

Say whatever you want about Chee Larnley, though.

Like trying to get blood out of a stone this.

He'd definitely be a taker. Even with a dog.

Aye, completely agree. His potential career trajectory under Bruce is far lower than under Rafa. We'll never get an offer bigger than that one.

100% will not happen and willing to bet you big. It would be just our fucking luck though wouldn't it? Every arsehole pundit from now till eternity trotting out "I don't know why the fans have a problem with Ashley/Bruce, he got them Xth place!" Completely ignoring everything that happened before that again.

I have a horrible feeling this season will end up like another "5th place under Pardew". Couple of our players will inexplicably turn into world beaters and drag us up the league (despite Bruce's best efforts to screw it up). Couple of the bigger teams will shit the bed so much that we finish above them, making our season look even better by comparison. Obviously there's nothing pointing towards this actually coming true but it's sods law. Maybe not as high as 5th again but I can definitely see us finishing higher than Rafa ever managed to get us just so it can be used as a stick to beat the fans for the next decade.

I'm of the opinion they should just scrap the windows all together and go back to the old system of buying people whenever. Stops all the panic buying and overspending. Fucking hell. Imagine constant, year round transfer speculation all over the media. Can't think of anything worse.

Missing out on the 25-man squad are Jack Colback, Achraf Lazaar, Rolando Aarons, Henri Saivet and Jamie Sterry, while Jacob Murphy and Freddie Woodman have joined Sheffield Wednesday and Swansea City respectively on loan.

How long we got left the shift this one out on loan again?

Could end up like Sissoko. Passes were technically completed but he was constantly passing behind runners or into areas that would require a miracle of a first touch to keep control.

Feels like he could get away with that... I can already hear the 40,000+ cries of "He'll not force me to stop giving him money!"

Same here. He always looked so composed on the ball from a young age.

Yup. Albeit not all out and out left wingers all of the below played there at some point. Ginola, Robert, N'Zgobia, Cabella, Thauvin, HBA, Gouffran, Obertan, Marveaux Sissoko spent most of his time here out on the wing. Fabrice Pancrate probably played on the wing that one time.

The likes of Almiron, Saint-Maximin and Joelinton are a big step up from the likes of Riviere and Gouffran. They are also more physically capable than the likes of Thauvin and Cabella. Unfortunately for a lot of people on here, the team is going to be an exciting one to watch, and are likely to do well this season. Best prepare yourselves. Hi guys, My names Kaka and I'm a fucking lunatic. Have a nice day. He's right though. Just to fuck us all off, the team will have a blinding season. It'll be another "5th place under Pardew" that the media will use as a stick to beat the fans for the next decade or so.

Spot on

Forgot the fact that he gives away a million fouls a game because he can't tackle properly. Can't wait to see him hanging off the back of players like a shit ginger cape, every fucking game this season.

They definitely should have used VantaBlack paint. Make the entire stadium look like a black hole.

The ones that haven't cancelled yet will be the same ones that think this is a good appointment.
