Keep playing him, when he does make a stupid tackle and gets sent off, that opens the door for Bruno to take his place. It's quite obvious you cannot drop either Joelinton or Willock from the starting 11

Listen, Father Ted is an Irish show that English funded. You can however lay full claim to Mrs Browns Boys -

The biggest mistake people are making is thinking Bruce gives a shit. He must have a very talented agent to keep getting him these massive pay days for doing absolutely fuck all. There was a point in his managerial career when he realised he’d never be cut out for the Man Utd job and since then he’s been out to get as many redundancy cheques as he can, in some cases he actually picks up a wage for several months between them. Rolls into the training ground at 11, if he does at all. And then inevitably when his team loses he’s got thick enough skin to stand in front of the media and blame everyone else but him. This notion that he’s a great bloke.. he’s actually a fucking parasite with socially manipulative skills but it says more about how thick the people running most clubs are that people like him get to carry on like this. -

Don't see the problem. ASM has been absolutely crocked for months. Gets to 60 minutes and he's standing around hand on hips, taking ages to get back up after getting the ball taken off him. That's not a criticism of him, the club have needed to take care of him for ages and due to our predicament, we haven't been able to do that. His fitness levels have improved recently but 100% believe his legs are probably covered in bruises from being hacked down. He also had a bad dose of Covid the previous year. Any lung damage will put limitations on the oxygen his body can absorb which would easily explain how he hits walls in games roughly around the same point. The other thing to note, he's not built like the average footballer, he's an absolute supercar if can use than analogy. You don't bring a Bugatti to a budget price mechanic if it needs a service.

I’m gonna put this out there, based on today. Joelinton is more effective at this moment in time than Kante at what Kante does so very well.
-
If we beat Brentford and possibly moving up to 14th that will psychologically give us an edge I think. We have momentum, as do Burnley now. The others around us are all in the horrors.. but that can change in an instant. If we keep current form levels, I can see us picking up another 24/25 points by end of season.. that would easily be enough.
-
Nothing would be announced yet but i'd wager that he's doing his planning behind the scenes so that he'll hit the ground running whenever that announcement date is.

I don't think Emery had any intention of leaving, he entertained some conversations and then leaked the info to make himself look loyal to his club. It was snidey, unprofessional and also assisted by senor Ballbag who seems to have an axe to grind as far as we're concerned. He's burnt his bridges there as far as we're concerned but I don't think he has any real intention of moving to the PL again. Arsenal wasn't a good experience for him.

Aye, and no wonder Alex is such a twat if that's how things went down. -
Aside from moving a little slower than they would have liked at some points, the new owners have barely put a foot wrong since they came in. We don't seem to be making any of the same mistakes other clubs with new money have made.

Watching his post match comments, i felt a wave of anxiety for what we could still be stuck with. Fuck every one of those cunts who gas-lit us for the time he was here. "He's a top manager" etc.. "They'll never accept him because he managed Sunderland..." No. We were never going to accept him because he's absolute dogshit. -
Not worried about this one at all. If we want him we’ll make sure we bid the most. If he wants to come here it will happen. We’ll have many options in the summer once we manage to stay up.
-
This happened the last time, had a run of a few decent games and was awarded with a new contract then before the ink was dry he was back to sub-standard performances. But that was Steve Bruce.
-
That's the way i'm seeing it, no doubt Burnley are a hard team to break down but Brighton were well below par on Saturday. Just wait until Dan Burn is missing for us at some point, it won't be pretty. Can only assume they are in the same boat. Looking at Burnley's fixtures, it's easy to imagine them getting 0 points from next 4 games, maybe a draw with Palace but that is no certainty.
-
Just can’t look past Burnley only winning 2 games all season so far.
-
You can’t drop Joelinton and you can’t drop Willock currently but Shelvey has had a couple of good games.. history suggests he’ll go off the boil again so why not freshen things up with Bruno in for him. We’re going to dominate the midfield here (feels weird even typing that) so perfect game to throw him in.
-
Far too easy to cut through both sides. I think we’d beat both currently. I wouldn’t like to see Leeds go down, they’re far too much fun.
-
Scoreline flatters Leeds as well.
-
The Arena site found hardly be called the outskirts ?
-
Oh Eddie definitely has a ruthless streak. And certainly isn’t a pushover either, not throwing Bruno in straight away is a perfect example.. spending 40 million on a player must be a huge pressure in terms of team selection.
-
I like the idea of the arena site and whether they have planning permission to do something, they haven’t started it and there’s probably loads of reasons why they haven’t. If PIF wanted to they could assist building of a new venue for them. Money talks at the end of the day. The point is, rebuilding all or even part of SJP is highly complicated. Why go through all that when there’s other better options.
-
Maybe he was a close contact with someone with Covid, Howe saying he had a knock was a way of protecting him? Anyones guess. He did need a rest either way.

Who are these people that join to post shit like that? So weird.
