    Scott McTominay

    Mediocre prospect. Could see him filling a role at Leicester, Villa or Everton as the body in the middle. He's not shite, he's a PL midfielder, but for a middle to lower half team, where graft begins to substitute the technical and strategic ability they can't afford in the transfer market. Which why it doesn't make sense - £50 Mill for a player with no real attributes outside of his physical characteristics and perhaps a strong mentality - For that money we should be looking at a technically proficient or promising player with decent experience in a top league. I think Eddie has it in mind to try to buy some young, British prospects with a bit of 'tude, faces like smacked arses, who won't take any shit, to act as the grit / steel at the core of the squad - Which is fine and everything, but that can't be their primary asset surely? You'd want a players technical ability to come close to matching or eclipsing their mental fortitude for that outlay - And I really don't see that with McTominay - He's a defensive / ball winning mid who's not great at defending or ball winning, nor the creativity or technical ability to supplement that role with being someone who can provide opportunities or assists. Somebody on here, youtube or wherever said just a little while ago that Eddie needs to stop thinking he has to turn lead into gold, he's not at Bournemouth anymore, he has the money to buy quality, ready made players - And whilst I appreciate that those sentiments don't take into account the financial implications of tightening FFP - They're not far off the mark - There is money to spend, there are key positions to fill - And McTominay is hardly best in class - Eddie should raise his transfer expectations a bit, go for a higher calibre player and let Ashworth & The Owners sort out the financials - Of course, that presumes that they haven't already and given Eddie the sort of leeway that results at him looking at 1/2 McFred in the first place - Doubt it though.
  2. Aww fkn boohoo for him, fkn here - tp for his bunghole. I hear the brentford hamlet 5-a-side community centre pitch was funded by them anyway.
  3. Thicker than Gabby Agbonlahor's first shit of the day. Urine empty and the ascot chalet athletic team have allowed 5 wins against relegation contenders (2 of which went down to 10 after reds), a draw away against the indomitable west 'am and a win against a chelsea side that couldn't score if they were the owner of a cheesy chip & blue drink outlet situated beside a nymphomaniac treatment centre in pennywell.....tells me they've somewhat lost their perspective in all the giddy excitement that follows beating a small series of sky bet hopefuls. Not to worry, ultimately these dweebs will be reminded their place in the food chain as a light luncheon for their Michelin star gourmet visitors. 1-3 Toon.
  4. What the fuck was that by Burn?! Did he just run the ball out of play to stop an invisible man taking it?! wtf?!
  5. Gordon on the left. Chiesa on the right.
  6. UP THE TOON! Let's send these chimney sweeps and barrow boys back to east london with fuck ahl.

  8. Thank fuck. Right. Can someone tell me if Bruno's red carries through? Can he play in the final?
  9. Francis Benali on Southampton "They have to go for it, they've got nothing to lose" Y'know, apart from the game n that.
  10. She's very tidy yes, way, way out of all of our leagues, sure, but 'insanely beautiful', no. Would not be out of place in Bijoux on a Saturday with a gaggle of uglier friends, getting chatted up by sunbed, skin-fade, roided Ryan. Insanely beautiful is Catherine Zeta Jones circa 1998. 'Tis a rare bloom, and vanishes as quickly as it arrives. Hate to quibble, but it's the difference between say, James Maddison, who is very good, and prime Zidane, who was an elegant, unquestionable genius. You'd be made up to get Maddison, but you'd murder, dice and hide the body for Zidane. Incidentally, you know Michael Douglas got some sort of oral cancer from eating her snatch too much? Who knew
