Not really our loss to be honest, £30m was way too much for him in my opinion. To be honest I’m just happy to learn we have that sort of money to spend on another player, then again we probably have Rudkin starting up the casino again to be forking out 30m for him.

Did we ever find out if we had a Hall of Fame? I think if we don’t it’s time we had one.

He needs something in the memorial garden. He was a key part of the revival of our club and helped take us right to the very top of the game.

Massive part of our history, will be remembered fondly. Rest in peace, Shakey.

Regarding Soumare I’d be fine with Cooper giving him a chance. Was quality in Ligue 1 and then joined us under a massively declining Rodgers and then was quite good in multiple games under a firefighter attempt from Dean Smith. If Cooper sees something in him I’m willing to give him a proper chance just as I said we should with Ndidi under Enzo. Soumare has been disappointing so far, but he joined a club in Freefall, everyone was declining in the 18+ months prior to relegation.

Steve Coopers tactics will be completely irrelevant if we go into this season with Danny Ward as our goalkeeper. If we do sell Mads and we don't sign a goalkeeper to replace him and we go into the first game of the season with Ward in goal, I'll very likely be Cooper out from match 1. I really hope Ward is getting game time purely because he needs the fitness to be available to loan or Sell, please Steve, my anxiety is hurting already.

Hargreaves and Savage 👍

Fantastic diplomat and he’s a great person, left us in a far better position than he inherited, Southgate is the sort of person you’d want representing your country, but ultimately I don’t think the team suited his style and he wasn’t able to adapt his style to play attacking, aggressive football that many of our players are used to. If it’s got to be English, then Howe is the only name we should be going for. Potter would be a sideways step to a manager who simply wouldn’t suit the players at his disposal. If they are open to foreign managers then throw the wallet at Klopp, and if he turns it down Poch would be the next logical step. Tuchel is still a top manager but again not sure he’s attacking enough for my liking on the international stage. I want to be excited by England again.

Have to say, FoxesTalk is easily the best structured and well run forum I’ve seen. I’ve not joined many forums before but I’ve visited hundreds in the past when looking for solutions to problems, pretty much every single forum I’ve been on looking for anything, I’ve always thought to myself I wish it was as well structured as FT is. It’s a great community.

In before there’s a relegation clause where we have to pay him £30m and he leaves on a free

Really hopeful we get a decent deal for Carvalho over the line. I can’t imagine slot is going to want to take any risks on players like Carvalho who are unproven at this level. There will be a few he might look at but I doubt he will be giving them all game time, he needs to hit the ground running after the Klopp era and I’d imagine there will be a few players up for grabs for a relatively cheap fee. Same with Chelsea.

GERRIT FORWARD

Edit - I'm stupid

Sorry Graham, the job is no longer available #5moreyears

@Tuna

I hope you've recorded it! What a match!!!

I know we laugh but i'm scared you're right. If you're an England manager and you somehow fluke a Euros, there's no way you don't try to win a WC surely? How could anyone walk away from a world cup

what a finish.

11 shots on target the entire tournament.

This was probably our best chance to win a major tournament for the next 10 years. All of our big rivals are going through a "transition" where many of the golden generation players have retired, and their younger replacements are not yet anywhere near the level those players reached. In 4-8 years time, France, Germany, Spain etc will all be far better than they are in this tournament, and we have turned up and delivered dogwater against very average teams.

I think he was trying to bring Phillips on

Give it Poch

Genuinely you could just tell these players forget about defending just attack, and we will break these down in 30 seconds. Wonder if Joachim Low fancies another run on the international stage?

Sad isn't it. Knowing the FA if we win this he gets a new contract.
