Agree, he gave out more watches than assists. Showman, is skillful as hell but honesty did very little the last two seasons. It all makes sense. I'd rather have both, but I'd choose Barnes overall if I had to.

Totally agree with you. 1 every 10 years right.

Barnes over Madison for me. I think Bruno can be our Madison if allowed.

Maxi barely played last year and we did ok. Good signing, and has goals and assists to add to the team that got us 4th. Excited to see him grow with EH and the team.

Throw in Christian Bassedas and the league would be ours!

Most kits with a pattern will. It's cut from a roll of Printed Fabric. If not, the waste is ridiculous and that's bad for the planet. You can place a design on the front of a shirt, but for random Patterns it makes sense to have differing placements but a generally similar visual overall. That's from the horse's mouth.

Big Phillipe Albert and the chip-over Rudolph for the 5th. I was in the Leazes right behind it as it left his foot. It floated in slow motion as I left my seat to stand, then hit the net and we all went crackers... Best days of my life that season.

I reckon Eddie is standing by Maxi and the he wants to keep him 'line' in Public. So if he's sold it points towards the club, rather than Eddie. If Neves was 50 and Marhrez 30 then Maxi is worth 50-60m. That would give us potentially 60-100m to Spend. So 2-3 new signings. Barnes 35, Livramento 20(ish), and then 45-50 on another I'd imagine - fuck knows who...Chiesa, Diaby? Those 3 with Tonali massively improved our squad and started 11. ASM rarely played last year. Probably, completely wrong

Because they have the above players?

Personally, I feel Eddie sees Gordon as a utility player to play in numerous positions, in different games, or changeable during a game - flexibility is key to wor Eddie! Big Joe, Willock, Bruno, Tonali, Gordon, and Barnes are all fluid players.... who can evolve during a game or be picked for various opposition.

I'm bored of the ASM stuff. He's had his chance and he's not done enough. 6/10. Goals win games and the stats don't lie - Maxi's stats don't quite hit the ballon d'or hype he suggests. Do you want to watch random pointless stepovers or win games? Jokes aside, I'd keep Maxi, but if Howe switches him out for Barnes and uses the cash to buy a Chiesa or Diaby I'm down. Barnes has levels to go, and ASM is one of the very few players to not improve under Howe. I'm sure Howe is somewhat fed up with the bandages, moaning, and cryptic media messaging too - let's see how it pans out, but fans need to trust the bloke that just got us to 4th with Dan Burn and Longstaff.

Great old Stadium. Iconic and somewhat brutal.

Squad game, innit! We're gonna need rotation this year, once the champions league music is blaring out.

Great video and insight. Wait til he gets in with the lads and they integrate him into the group. It's clear this is the best group of lads we've had and I think he'll love it here. Everybody seems to say we have the best dressing room they've seen. Excited as fuck watching that. What a club man!

He's a class act that lad. Lucky to have him here.

This would be a statement signing. Kinda reminds me a little of Des Hamilton but with Parmesan on top. Fingers crossed we get him.

Class video that. He's too good! Excited to see him fully fit with Sandro!

Which wealthy young women would prefer Northumberland Street over wandering by the Duomo? it's common sense... As long as he's enjoying his footy I'm fine.

At this point is there any fucker Chelsea are not buying! Someone needs to put a cap on the number of transfers per season.

Ill try to post in the right thread... lol

Love this. Everything about us right now is professional and considered.

He looks great - never heard of him. Kinda shows that there is so much talent out there... and with Howes coaching, we could pick up some great talent rather than throw it all on one. Still excited to see where we go. I'm pretty sure we will still have at least another 3 come in after Sandro!

Flog ASM and get to business!

haha Hope so.

Loving all these 'new' formations teams are all adopting. Inverted full-backs, the new false 9?
