  1. Because as far as I can see the argument that we should have a bigger stadium so that more people can afford to come isn't based on anything other than hope. There's no evidence to back it up, if anything only the opposite.
  2. Unsurprising. Hopefully that puts a pin in that 'we should move to a bigger stadium so more people can afford it' argument.
  3. Their hit rate on home kits is 2 out of 3 imo. Probably 3/3 without Fun88 ruining the first one. Puma's was 2 or 3 out of 11 and adidas 2 or 3 out of 8 so they're doing alright.
  4. Like I say, it could be a big difference between the fan one and the pro one, but the fan embroidered one is excellent quality
  5. I got the embroidered castore one so maybe there's a big difference between the two and the quality varies, but can only comment on the one I got and it wipes the floor with adidas, nike, puma tbh. It almost harks back to the 95/96 adidas kit, but not quite.
  6. Nah not at all, I got a proper one a few weeks ago and the quality of the material is excellent. DHGate is completely incomparable tbh.
  7. Yeah, I've said it before but if they lost the wings logo it would look so much better. The quality of their tops is great, but that'll only last until they're an established brand.
  8. Basically a modern day 84-85 kit innit? Definitely the best in years because the sponsor looks much better, but that aside I think it still might actually be better than 17-18.
  9. I've wanted a kit like that that shows off my youthful and svelte newage look with a vintage feel for years. Of course it finally happens when I'm a middle aged fat cunt.
  10. The only hope I have now is that we still have the red names and numbers and that the fan version has an embroidered badge
  11. They look like FIFA players tbf, but there's no way it's fake imo.
  12. Weirdly I think I'd have preferred the sponsor in a box, but as far as aesthetics vs meeting readability standards go that's a good looking compromise
  13. He's been injured most of the season, but when he did play a lot of his 'per 90' stats, most notably assists, are up there with the best in the league, so in short he did it a lot. His Man City performance was a 10, but how often do you get 10/10 performances in a season? I only gave them out 20 times across 38 games last season and 14 of them went to 5 players. The most anyone got was 4, Pope and Wilson. Trippier, Miggy, and Joelinton got 2 each and all of the others got one across the season, which includes ASM, Isak, Bruno, Schar, Burn, Longstaff. Expecting that level of performance consistently is just unrealistic imo, particularly for a player who only had 12 starts due to his injury problems this season. He had some dud performances, but he also had some very good ones: Forest, Man City, Southampton x2, Fulham, Man United x2, West Ham, Chelsea were all very good games or cameos.
  14. Unless the club know he's crocked, £30m is absolutely not fair value for Maxi like, nowhere near.

    Souness

    Howeh, don't do that shat myself there. He's not dead everyone
  16. Only just noticed my cousin in the background of Willock's Chelsea goal
  17. Again, they were just the few famous examples off the top of my head. Google it and there are tons of late bloomers in football, that's not even contentious. Posting about it fairly regularly and calling his lack of game time a 'genuine concern' is what makes me think you're maybe worrying over nothing in the context of it being a 5 month old signing that only cost £3m. Even if you're right it's still no big deal imo.
  18. I'm not saying that to say don't talk about it though I'm just saying he's been here 5 minutes and cost barely anything. I don't get how any of it fits into the category of being a genuine concern, even if you're right and it turns out to be a failure. It's essentially a no-risk signing AFAIC, if it doesn't work out we haven't painted ourselves into a corner and can look elsewhere.
  19. Just the three most obvious examples that were off the top of my head, there are tons more. Why not just wait and see? He's been here just over 4 months and cost £3m
  20. The Twitter embeds work on other forums, just FYI
