I think there's a decent chance we end up with him back on loan in January or maybe in 25/26

29th of May 2025. Somebody has to want him. It's not football manager you know you can't just sell players like that, he's on a long contract and clubs in these other leagues can't afford the wages. We have to spend the money to compete, would you rather we just got relegated and cheaped out? And besides how was Rudkin supposed to know he'd do his ACL again? You don't know that we've refused offers anyway, the Hellas Verona deal could have been structured terribly for all we know. No one knows the isn ands outs so blindly blaming Rudkin is really short sighted when lots of people are involved in deals like this. Why don't you give the recruitment team stick? They would have identified him Rudkin just negotiates the deals.

An instant body with a crap injury record and probably a 5 year deal? Also been banned from driving twice already. Even if it’s £30m and Moder it’s a crap deal because we can’t spend much of it.

"Some of the StatsBomb analysts have a bit of a man crush on Leicester’s Kiernan Dewsbury-Hall. No, it’s not because he sounds like a Bridgerton character, it’s because he’s really rather good at the football thing. Brighton are potentially also crushing (and maybe deservedly so), while Leicester allegedly have some financial constraints that might make a reasonable deal possible. One to watch."

Georgia have been immense

Liverpool

Shenanigans is a 10/10 Irish pub

F uck

No W ANKER

Mike is a willy puller

It's remarkable that we've been shit for so long and we still produce these magic moments. I was at a pub on Herm island, off Guernsey when Ackermann bowled the 7-18 and I was jumping on the tables screaming

Kimber wow

Nottingham's floor and ceiling are both lower and higher than Leicester's, if that makes sense.

Didn't think about the last one at all, good red herring. I knew it didn't look the country I picked either.

Never seen a bag of money score a goal. Whilst we can’t sell anybody that isn’t a first teamer because the hierarchy are useless - we’re in the the shit

Bad coaching, there is so little idea of how to move the ball up the pitch. Team selection is making it worse

Against Slovenia yeah but we'd be too open against a decent side playing that way.

It'd be so frustrating being Wharton and seeing TAA and Gallagher not doing the things you can from the bench

That's mostly down to their team's style of play. We've seen enough of Gallagher to know he's an industrious B2B type and not a calmer deep midfield player. This is what he's about https://x.com/PremLeaguePanel/status/1805208784400249158

It should be Wharton or, at worst, Mainoo in for TAA in midfield. Gallagher is a dog, good hassler but turns the ball over too often and he's not a good passer.

Patel called up for Birmingham in the hundred, Dan Weston is the analyst there and he used to work for us

Great read as always
