Kid Icarus

Yeah, it gets a lot harder if it's Hodgson. Let's hope our signings override it.

Don't underestimate Hodgson in the short term, he's a good manager who's well versed in these situations. He was my pick for us as a short term choice.

Salisu in Shearer's TOTW again.

I feel like Fonseca has finally found the ideal club willing to take him.

NUFC: Will you take €55m? Sevilla: We will accept £38m

Ah shit yeah, good point.

I was thinking about the best way to do this last night and thought the best way to do it would be to sign him for a fee on a 2 year contract, which satisfies Man United, but put a release clause in that's activated in the summer for around the same amount, so he can go somewhere else if he wants while we also get some money back. That way everyone gets what they want. If it really is £10m for a loan til the end of the season for a player that's not too enthusiastic about coming, that's getting a bit QPR tbh.

Spam posting about having a girlfriend probably

It's £46m so not that insane or anything. Based on not much at all, I wouldn't go beyond £50m

Honestly chose this at the time because it had by far and away the best design and UI and it seemed the most active. All I remember of TT was some of them on there being snooty about SackPardew and AshleyOut, I'm sure most are sound though.

Reads the game and makes interceptions, but also has that brick wall element to him where he cuts out everything. Plays it nicely once he has it as well. I've watched Southampton maybe 3 or 4 times this season, against Villa, Brighton, Man City, and another I don't remember. I noticed him vs Villa because he played two short passes, blindly, back to his 'keeper. So I noticed him for doing that, but then after that he was fantastic, either cutting out, blocking, or tackling everything. He was in Shearer's TOTW for that match I remember. The other night against Man City it was a similar again where I noticed him cutting things out and making tackles.

Only just mentioned him yesterday. Every time I've seen him he's looked absolute quality for Southampton. Not sure I'd choose him over an established CL defender like, but I've only seen good things from him.

I would totally agree with everything said about patience being needed etc if Staveley hadn't said that the target is to win the PL in 5-10 years. If that's the target, then I think it's very hard to argue that appointments like this align with such a lofty target.

Eh, they've rejected the second loan offer?

Anyone know much about Bakker? @ponsaeliusmaybe? He looks really impressive just based on his YouTube highlights

Craig fucking Pawson was on VAR for that Jota pen. They couldn't make it any more obvious if they tried.

Is this PSG match a league match? There's like 800 people there

Wonder why Lloris doesn't bother trying to save that shot. He winds up then just watches it go in.

* watches Get Back once *

He did it like 4 or 5 times though, often just because he'd lost the ball. I don't mind a couple of times when it's shit decisions like the penalty, but it felt like he was doing it all the time yesterday, a couple of times while Leeds had the ball and were quickly going on the counter.

Blows my mind that no matter the season, the players, or the manager, Arsenal continue to be the same club that drops points at home to seemingly every bottom quarter team except Newcastle. It's remarkable

Arsenal are going to do an Arsenal aren't they

Canny funny tbh. Scoring a goal and the first thing you do is call the people who love you and want to do well the most specky.
