Solskjaer would be enough for me to bin it off. Don't want that horrible little twat anywhere near us.

Albrighton absolute hero, Kelechi cheers for the goals in the cup run.

3 years is ****ing insane.

Where's the Ancelotti report come from?

Bit of a victim of his price tag I'd argue, which definitely factored in potential as much as anything. We couldn't afford to splash that amount and not play him, regardless of whether or not he was ready at the time. I'd love to see him have another crack here after a really steady season in a good league.

This is a million times better than the actual strip.

I get its a bit of fun and the game needs shithouses, but Maddison can't win there. If he bites, he's biting at a bloke who has scored 1 goal in 30+ games for his current club, playing as a striker. It'll make him look so rattled.

That Newcastle kit is just... fine. The way that lot have been blabbing on I expected more. Actually think 22/23 and 23/24's Castore home shirts looked tidier and a bit less clunky.

Wouldn't be able to get excited about Cooper at all.

He's probably just the most high-profile of those being cut? I didn't expect Maddison to go, but it's more newsworthy than Quansah and Jones not being on the plane.

Would be overjoyed if we flogged him, I genuinely believe we could get decent money for him too, weirdly.

That gear looks so bootlegged

L'Equipe is a rag too but it just seems very plausible.

Yeah he's definitely not kicking up a fuss is he. Bit of a sad indictment of where we are when a manager not questioning the mess above them is one of the main reasons we'd get someone in!

Absolutely nothing on Garcia's CV indicates he'd be capable here.

Hmmm, be on decent cash, would cost a fair bit and coming off both an average, then a pretty crap season. I get that there's a player in there but it doesn't strike me as brilliant business, this one.

Is what Maddison said ironic in any way? He left when we were effectively a Championship side having just been relegated. Circumstances completely different.

Bootlicking from Palace.

Premier League ace Eberechi Eze flaunts wealth in 4x4 at kid's football day

I don’t think it is, certainly not as a blanket thing. I’m not Enzo Out, and I’d prefer Potter, but I can absolutely see why people would vote Moyes.

Is it a release clause or just the approx compo to buy out his contract? Genuine question because I've no idea.

I think it’s a bit of a shame. There was some stubbornness but he rightly called out the club’s hierarchy for the Sensi shitshow amongst other things. I quite liked the fact he wasn’t just a lapdog. We badly needed someone internally questioning how the club was and is being run. I don’t trust the board to adequately replace him whatsoever. Corberan is the only name linked I think would make a decent fist of next season because he can just about make silk purses from sow’s ears but I’m not sure he fits Top’s mythical ideology that we have to be Man City lite.

There's a couple of clubs had investment but there simply isn't the income (or fan interest from either in or outside Scotland) to keep them going beyond a certain ceiling, especially when the Old Firm swallow so much of the Scottish fanbase. Kelty, Gretna, maybe Cove(?) have all tried but ultimately levelled out, or fizzled out. I don't think you'll ever see an investor take a club from outside the professional pyramid and take them all the way to the top tier for generations, if ever.

The BBC (or whoever puts the broadcast together) really do muffle the crowd noise don’t they? It’s like you’re hearing it in the far distance. The atmosphere actually sounds okay at Wembley for once, too.

Weird little bugger.
