Fortunately he won’t have a massive workload here, I think Howe will know when and if to use him better than we will. The concern we all have are his hamstrings, the latest time being the by far the worst at 100 days of inactivity. Again though, as second or third choice and only used for selective games I feel that they think he can be managed. If they dont think they could get more out of him than they could Wilson then he won’t be signed.

As a Wilson replacement he’s absolutely more than fine, relatively cheap outlay and I think people generally under estimate him as a player. He also ticks all of the boxes that Howe likes to see ticked.

But not as good as Kellehers, in my opinion of course. Also, I find the Cunha deal a bit strange. Amorim has been quite ruthless in his approach of weeding out the bad attitudes and egos only to have replaced them with another..

That’s a great deal, I’d have been happy with him. Hes a big upgrade on Flekken for the feet ability alone.

With £1 burgers

The increase in depth and quality from just those 2 signings alone is absolutely massive. I do feel that we can gain the easiest and quickest % jump in terms of the overall output of the side by signing a keeper with feet, if we can get those 3 done and dusted early we’d be looking great.

He’s getting the ‘thankyou for your service’ Ritchie/Dummett type of offer because Howe clearly values him being around the squad. Howe will know far more than us on how much can be expected of Wilson for next season, and we know if he stays he won’t see many minutes outside of a crisis. I can’t see him signing that anyway, he’ll still get decent offers from abroad I’d imagine. He could have one nice contract left somewhere.

Hard to turn down that kind of money though

They flipped a coin in January and lost in the worst way, like others have said the fallout is going to go on for weeks/months

Just had a peep at their forum, its carnage on there Thank fuck it wasn’t us.

Thankyou

I told you lot you should have just chilled out

That Burn slip

It’s nothing new, 99.9% of teams are not. Everton are out to frustrate us and stop as scoring as a rule of thumb. There is easily still goals in this for us though.

Everyone in the thread needs to chill

Never bad having the derbys back, and they have a lot of work to do

Amazing

200k a week would tempt any player of that age mind Imagine losing a final to spurs holy shit

Would love either, but one is proven and settled in this league already

Annoyingly good early business from Liverpool

It’s nothing new, fans want to sell different players from week to week depending on results/performances. Wasn’t long ago that Trippier was deemed finished and should be offloaded, now people are clamouring for him to be back in the side.

He is a very driven character, but also one who mentally struggles badly when not on form imo.

Kissed the ball and handed it off, so yes he did

Not sure how you can hate that, entertaining game for a final to

City are getting hit on the counter at least once more
