@Paully gets a few mentions in this thread particularly liked this one. Paully is not a good bloke at all. Absolute Pisshead who is far too inappropriate with barmaids especially

I might be In minority but got to say I’d be disappointed if we committed to a permanent deal for Phillips. He’s 28 barely played and if we we’re obligated to fork out 40 million of our budget on him I think it would look a short sighted deal in January, with many better options potentially out there next summer. If it’s a 3 million loan deal without an obligation it potentially makes sense, it would be a stop gap until Tonali returns, but big part of me hopes it’s a bull shit rumour and we have something a bit more exciting lined up.

If I was going for a domestic right sided player it would be Michael Olise bags of potential.

I think PIF would build anything but a flatpack, it would likely be something up with the very best. There’s no way the East Stand is getting renovated into anything befitting a top tier stadium unless they can do something with the terrace, which looks highly unlikely to me.

Watched a couple of videos of inside the new Anfield road end at Anfield, whilst it’s not finished you can already see the concourse isn’t a patch on the Spurs stadium. Looks very dated and certainly no wow factor. After seeing that it’s made my mind up a new stadium is 100% the way to go at Castle Leazes, or the arena site.

They’re off their tits it’s reached absolutely comical levels.

I can’t stand the phone culture but got mixed feelings on day trippers. If they’re genuine fans and not a fan of Chelsea on a stag do I don’t have a problem. In a way it’s great the club is growing and attracting fans from all over. The atmosphere must be protected though and the way we do that is with expanded safe standing badged clearly as singing enclosures.

I agree Gordon could do a job on right, however everything I’ve seen so far suggests Howe likes inverted wingers which makes me doubt this was his plan.

Someone in here compared to him Jenas when he first burst on the scene at Forrest, whatever we think of Jenas in his time here it’s not a bad comparison in terms of style. Think Miley has even more potential though just a shame we didn’t keep hold of Bobby Clark as well, Miley, Clark and Anderson could have been our midfield it was wasn’t for the fat cockney parasite.

Gyokores should have been a target in the summer makes the Barnes deal all the more baffling to me. Barnes isn’t known for pressing, or his all round play and we didn’t need a left winger as a priority. Gyokeres would have been a great buy at the price Sporting paid, I’m hoping this new Dutch super scout has real clout in targets going forward as the summer apart from Tino was poor to say the least.

This nonsense with the tickets is a bit like their pretend outrage about human rights, if boot was on other foot and we were kicking off about giving them 15%, they’d be bleating on about us breaking FA rules and how they should absolutely be allowed the full allocation. It really has to be one the biggest collective mental breakdowns in a fanbase in living memory, all that remains is for us to go there and fucking stuff the horrible cunts.

Tom Cowie called it years ago, nowts changed and never will.

I think our names on a cup this season we’ll have learned a lot from this CL experience.

Could be Sunderland then Boro in league cup SF that would be some week.

Should be all over Manu Kone for that role, he’d bring a completely different option to what we’ve currently got.

With the emergence of Miley I’d be happy to take a pass on Phillips on loan, especially if it meant having to purchase him permanently in the summer. If we’ve got any spare cash in January it’s a forward player we need and Viktor Gyokeres would be the perfect fit for us.

That’s horrific nee wonder fan culture in this country is at rock bottom,.

Pray that he’s ready and this isn’t some half based arse comeback which results in further breakdown. Might be an over exaggeration but think our success this season depends on Sven staying fit.

I don’t think any of the YouTubers are wired right to be fair, bunch of right sad cunts when you look at their match day experience. I can’t see what enjoyment the likes of that Lee from Newcastle Fans Tv gets from going to the match, his videos are boring as fuck.

Gordon showed enough at Everton to suggest he was a talent, I’m judging Barnes on what i’ve seen at Leicester. You either the like the look of a player or you don’t, never rated Barnes and found it a strange signing.

Season card holders marra

I think we’ve been pretty well drilled for the most part under Howe’s regime defensively, but agree we’ve looked ragged in recent weeks. The 2 homes against Dortmund and Milan we looked quite exposed at the back, not sure if it’s naivety or just a lack of quality to be honest, what’s stood out for me in 5 of the CL games is that we look short of real technical players, which in turn meant we starting forcing things and making errors.

Inevitable Milky Bar kid is still at large.

I think with the latest injury news Thursday, Sunday football is the last thing we needed this season. I’ve got no qualms about going for it and risking it all on last 16, the prize was sufficient to warrant going for broke.

I rated Gordon he’s got a bit X factor, never seen anything in Barnes that makes me think he’s an upgrade for the level we want to get to.
