Problem is, Stoke are pretty w*** now. Their team just isn't that good. Allen, Fletcher, Adam in midfield either past it or just always meh in Allen's case. Berahino's gone off a cliff, Crouch is nearly 37. One fan I spoke to after our game with them said Shaqiri's been phoning it in ever since Switzerland qualified for the WC to not get injured, as he knows he'll always get in the squad. Its painted as massively underachieving but I don't think they're up to much.

 

Tipped them for relegation. Got absolutely no goals in the team although ive been surprised how s*** at the back they've been.

 

When we played them earlier in the season I was impressed with the defensive line up and thought we'd get nowt. Butland is a great keeper, Zouma had always looked brilliant, Wimmer did well at spurs. In actual fact all of them have been dogshit, very curious.

I think they’ll make a play for Eddie Howe. Just a hunch. Can’t imagine he’d go but if they throw enough money at him...

Would be swapping his current position for a worse one. He’s legend at the club he’s at now, and I think he has the squad behind him, they just don’t have enough quality. Would be a crap move for him in my opinion.

Butland, Zouma and Shaqiri are good players too.

We should be trying our best to bring Butland in.

 

:lol::lol:

You not think he’s any good?

 

Very much the opposite but Pickford went to Everton for £30m. Butland is equal to or better than Pickford. Let's just say I can't see it happening.

Pickford fee was massively inflated to hype and Everton going money mad. I can’t see any clubs bigger than us going in for him, and if Stoke go down then they will probably need to sell.

He may still be expensive for us without a takeover, but if we get taken over then we should certainly have him on our watch list.

Dunno mind, and I admire your optimitism but, both Arsenal and Liverpool both need better goalkeepers. He'll be on the radar for each of them IMO.

Doubt it, both of them will likely go after bigger names, like Oblak.

Liverpool will just throw loads of money at Southampton for Forster.

Wonder how much Oblak would go for in this market like. Unless his release clause is lower, he's surely worth well over £50m.

Winner cost them 18m, Spurs always mug people off. They'd probably manage to sell Sissoko for 50m if they tried.

 

Can’t believe we got all that for Wimmer. Poch didn’t even hide that he didn’t rate him in the end. We paid 4.5M and he barely played :lol:.

He's a fucking divvy that guy, like. I'm sure he'll be in and around football for a good while, like, because the media related to this particular sport absolutely loves a know-nowt gobshite... but, for years to come, we'll all look back on Sherwood's managerial stints with a perplexed 'just how did that happen' humour. A bit like other greats such as Egil Olsen, Joe Kinnear and John Carver. He's in that league.

It's perhaps a bit worrying that what he said made total sense to me, like. The man's a proper cretin though obviously.

Mark Hughes can't win (in the eyes of everyone) no matter what he does, the only way for him to win (in the eyes of everyone) is to win (the football match)

 

Nee idea if everyone already knows that and you're all just still laughing, like. Apologies for being patronising if that's the case. [emoji38]

We get, we just get how much of a contradiction it is and how much it doesn’t make any sense.
