Highly rated here before he moved. Big strong lad. Great debut. Think Eddie Howe is going to have some decisions to make with the youngsters.. they look ready like..

Decent game.. great prep for coming season so far.

Great name

He’s fine

Is Longstaff injured?

Shit! Sell him ☺️

Tonali doesn’t seem to know what he’s supposed to be doing in the side.. looking really anonymous.. hasn’t been involved in any set piece, hasn’t played a long ball once. Again, is this by design? It’s like when F1 teams do testing in Barcelona.. none willing to show what they really have.

Eddie clearly likes Poch.. not seen him as warm with any other manager.

It’s nout to do with the age not showing. You have to link or unlink the order from a membership number.

Sorted

It’s saying it doesn’t know my age when it’s clearly saved on the profile. How to get around this?

If you’ve been on the Harvey Barnes thread you’d have gotten it.

If Villa hadn’t scored 2 goals we’d be winning 2-0 right now

Get in

I wouldn’t have figured someone with Tourette’s would make for a decent co-commentator.. but aside from the Unai stuff he’s been pretty decent.

Not really sure what the midfield instructions are? Bruno and Tonali not really clicking.. but with the back line that started am also fairly sure were sandbagging

I think Howe had to come out and give some praise as Lascelles has pretty much been emasculated over the last season in keeping the token role of club captain when we all know Tripps is that person. Like the player must know he’s on the absolute fringes in terms of team selection. Don’t get me wrong, he did well last season when he came on those few times but overall he’s playing a totally different sport to what the newcomers are playing. He’s a top pro though and nobody can ever question his commitment to the club.. I just feel it’s all a bit sentimental when we could be getting 8-10 million for the lad.

Poch has a massive job to get that team defending. Brighton would probably have won that if were not for the dumb red card.

I read once that she had a nipple tweaker in her employ when they were making “Friends”

I suspect the fee will be higher. They’ll announce it as an undisclosed sum along with a few other departures and this will muddy the waters in terms of FFP.

I think there’s a place to love the player but also acknowledge that he could be frustrating for the majority of the time. The frustration is because we know what he could do and we have a high expectation of him.. well more wanting him to have that for himself. Ultimately I think he’s a very good footballer trapped in the body of a rugby league player. The work rate expected of him is going to continually lead to injuries, for that reason he’s not reliable.. an average season for him is 25 games. In terms of end product we have most definitely upgraded but I’m still sad to see him go.

30m is not great business for someone of his talent. But I don’t think the club are being straight up about FFP.. I just don’t think Howe rates him for the style he wants us to play and can use it as an excuse to flog. So Maxi for Barnes is a straight swap pretty much. Not too happy about this one.. love Maxi

deranged behaviour.

Not a place for those of thin skin ?
