RobsonsWonderland

Actually played in more games then I thought. 36 in total last season but I think he has been pushed down the pecking order. You never know it might be one of those things where a new club is needed and injuries disappear! (Still riles me that Steve Howey managed 4 or 5 games in a row for us and then went to Man City and played a 100 games in three years lol)

The long term Chelsea deals are not wrong ... If you buy the right players at the right price. What if the new Manager wants to change them? One, is there any money left to spend? Two, how much would they lose if they sold them at a discount (do they have to pay all the wages as well?) Might work if it was a long term manager in place but not at a club with a new manager every other year.

Did Isak and Bruno not have the fitness issue at the start... I think that's why Eddie beds them in slowly

So who is going to be our next Beardsley, Bellamy, Trippier team changing signing? That one player who will lift 3 or 4 players around him and see a huge change to the team dynamic. An easy one in my head would be Kane... But I know thats never going to happen!

All I would say is CL is now a minimum 6 games before the knockouts The mad year under Robson we had 14 games, started in August and still didn't make the knockouts! I can't wait for the headache of deciding which cup / league we should focus on come Jan Feb time!

Hopefully Eddie has provided a list of names he wants the two lads to tap up...

Oh and we have the joint lowest league defeats all year... And think we were robbed of a couple lol

What a bizzare season it is when we have people frustrated with a draw v Chelsea , finishing the game with a 17 year old on the pitch, no cm unit to control the game and resting our top scorer. I would have been slightly miffed if we had missed out on 3rd but as things panned out I can live with that. Just remember we don't want to the most 'entitled' fanbase some people seem to think we are.. let's just enjoy the ride, it's going to be a great summer

Eddie must be sending a message to the board lol ! Kids, two keepers and never has beens on the bench today

Finishing the season with one first team cm (technically maybe a half fit one) Thank God we beat Brighton the other week.

Damn forgot about Gordon... Lol

Who of the potential starters have not scored this season? Always like a random scorer on the last day of the season Botman and Anderson 2-0

I know it was 20 years ago but... We brought in Lee Bowyer (free transfer) the last year Robson qualified for the champions league and lost the play off game ?. Still not sure why... Was it money, loyalty to the players who finished third or a case we could not sell any of our squad players?? But it always reminded me of Liverpool in their prime when no matter what they had won they added two, three first team players to freshen things up and keep others on their toes. So I just hope when the season starts we have made forward steps as a team, be it youth, squad, first team or purples being replaced. The one positive I can see is that this is not a blip and good things will come!

Seriously he has to be high up on my list of commentator's I have turned matches off for.

Looks very Juve... Which is never a bad thing

Chris Rock once said in his stand-up act, "Men are only as faithful as their options." I know some will say otherwise but it must be hard when the options are higher then those offered to us! And before people say it.. I don't think this is just a man thing either.

I thought he might have been fighting on the night out

I will be gutted if I find out Trippiers been the one spreading rumours about Mctominay signing for us in the summer... Even worse if he has got his mates to put a bet on it !

So if not dropped are you suggesting he will not be physically fit... Like Steven Taylor/Andy Carroll situation

I can only speculate what's went on but as long as it's not illegal but just a bad life choice... why would any individual be expected to step down from work duties ?? Unless it's the bosses daughter I can't imagine I would get time off at work !

Not sure it's a droppable offence...

Bayern... They buy Salah we buy Mane !

Wonder if the Salah comments are the first hints of him edging his way out of the club...too be honest I think he has one big move left in him if PSG or one of the Spanish clubs want or can afford him

Why are we so convinced this guy is even coming?
