You're right, I missed that bit. Apparently his release clause is €30M so still a good option if we could convince him.

Transfermarkt says he is. Diallo isn't as good as Mbeumo, but given our budget he's a good option. Considering we also need a 10 and a 6.

There are better options than Mbuemo with our limited budget. Diallo at Man Utd and Conceicao at Porto are both out of contract at the end of the season.

I think that's on Howe and he's pushed us in that direction when it comes to recruitment.

Better than any RW we currently have.

Nearly every team plays with either 1 or 2 sitting midfielders, it's bizarre we don't. It's the main reason I'm leaning towards wanting Howe out. I'd reset at the end of the season.

It's going to be a long season.

It's the only way their model works. You can't have young players leave for free. Selling a large number of them is how they beat ffp.

Gittens is quality. He'll be starting for England on the left if Gordon doesn't find form.

I wouldn't mind if Palace were relegated this season.

He's started this game really brightly.

Conflicted with that one. Silva doesn't impact his view of the ball coming from Stones' head, but he bumps him beforehand.

TAA is such a liability.

Probably because they have loads of decent coaches, we don't.

I'll take this result as long as it means we don't have Carsley permanently.

Why is Trent in the centre of the pitch when he's a right back?

We're somehow worse than under Southgate.

The FA are going to be cheap and appoint Carsley aren't they. Even the USA are more ambitious than us and got Poch. We should at least see if Tuchel or someone of the calibre is interested.

It's weird that as a country we just don't have any decent left backs.

Cracking ball from Gordon

Going to be more teams in the mix for the European spots than ever before. If we get Europa League we'll have had a good season.

Yeah, because our rw options are v poor.

He's not a rw
