Optimistic Nut

11/12 was a freak season, but 13/14 he had the tools for a top 6 challenge and was absolutely dire.

Pardew dropped Ben Arfa for Sammy Ameobi and Gosling. He can get to ferk.

But he plays up to Man Utd, he'll get a job somehow.

Seems close with Howe in his Press Conferences too..

Would be magnificent if he & Salah declined massively at the same time this season.

Harry Kane to City.

He'll want to be available for the CL. Would be brilliant if Wissa comes in and hits the ground running so he's stuck on the bench a bit longer than he hoped though.

After the first international break before he's in the squad I reckon.

I'm.warming to him.

I just don't see them competing. They've had to spend £150m just to stop them from being a 10 point team. 25 points at a push.

Aye got João Pedro coming in if he's still a doubt by Thursday. Might do that change anyway.

Would only happen if Isak was sold. There must be someone out there you can get on loan for a season for a year? Think we could make the most of that market since our PSR position is strong like Villa did last year.

Stuart Findlay with 3 goals in his first 2 league games for Hearts.

So you can jump up with your arms in the air, be nowhere near heading the ball, but because the ball hits his hand on the way down it's ok? Still stopping the ball getting to the Palace player.

Christ, Shearer/Rennie and Dyer/Bowyer. Mad.

His zipped passes into Watkins on the half way line to play out to the wings absolute killed us last season.

Their locals are just as bad. "You lot voted for PSR" even though it was the Ashley Newcastle. "We're able to spend money because we've built ourselves up over 50.years", is another gem of theirs. Sorry this was about Liverpool fans but I imagine it's similar with Man Utd.

Think it'll be this but I'd get Ramsdale, Botman, Hall & Elanga for Pope, Burn, Trippier & Murphy.

Them still having Watkins and us having no proper striker will likely be the difference.

Lukas Eduardz the journalist by any chance?

Think we're close to the point now where we tell them it's too late in the window to get our replacement even if they do match our valuation. Think if he's not gone by this time next week, that's it.

Nice read.

Something to do with Suarez and agent thinking it was a release clause, but wording was just that it allowed the player to talk to other clubs, no mention of having to accept it? Schoolboy error but pretty scummy unless I've got that wrong. Still hate the twunts.
