  1. He's likely to be the starting striker for a side wanting promotion. He'll be given more than £20k a week. I know there's some trepidation about offering large wages but we can afford something in the region of £30k-£35k and be fine.
  2. I watched the culmintion of the men's game last night and they must have spent 20 minutes talking to Keaton Jennings while the game was going on. Granted it was a blowout and the Invincibles won by a mile but still. They were just having a casual conversation with him while the game was going on. I'd imagine that new viewers wouldn't know who the **** Keaton Jennings was and would rather have been told about the game.
  3. The captain should be the one that leads by example as opposed to the one that wins the popularity contest. Whoever is the best in training, understands the City, has a positive attitude and isn't afraid to point out shit behaviour. I think club captain has to be Ricardo. I would give the vice captaincy to Ben Nelson.
  4. Shame he's going for about £20m. I think he's got every attribute needed to be worth a lot more than that.
  5. Wrexham have signed yet another Championship journeyman in Kieffer Moore.
  6. Mads.... it might be you.
  7. Do you think it is though? I got into cricket as a 12/13 year old watching the 2005 Ashes. There's no way I'd have even known it was a thing if it was on Sky. Completely agree with regards to showing day 5s. Should be free tickets and free to view.
  8. Why couldn't they just do this for everyone?
  9. I'd also say the better comparison is Savage/Ndidi, Lennon/Tielemans and Muzzy/Maddison.
  10. Frustrating that we've had 25 days of superb cricket locked behind a very high paywall and we're now going to show a mickey mouse competition on freeview. The ECB and Sky have got to find ways to make test cricket more accessible. Kids are going to grow up thinking the only good thing about cricket is 6s.
  11. Duckett Rahul Gill Root Brook Pant (wk) Stokes (c) Jadeja Bumrah Tongue Siraj Would be a pretty good side. I'd say that other than Tongue it would be the on-paper 11 too. You'd probably want Archer in there. Surprised to learn of Tongue's stats though. 19 wickets in 3 matches and the lowest strike rate of the series. He and Krishna have that same ability to bowl crap but have a magic delivery up their sleeve.
  12. A standard day for Anthony;
  13. Maddison was the match winner in the team. Fans look to him as the one to keep us up. I agree that it's unfair but it's just the way it goes. Same thing happens in every sport. Sachin Tendulkar, Michael Jordan, Tom Brady etc. They all cop a larger amount of stick than the rest when they're not able to pull their team through.
  14. Do we think Rudkin was bright enough to put in a sell-on clause considering he was clearly never going to last at Chelsea?
  15. You're right and we don't know. But we can probably take a good guess considering he was 1st on the team sheet up until he refused to fall in line with the rest of the squad. But Soumare probably deserves a go at this level too.
  16. There's plenty of KPFC fans that adore that Fearless Foxes guff.
  17. Plenty of good ones.... if you ignore the absolutely shit ones I take your point
  18. It's all on Winks IMO. I've seen enough from the opening few weeks to trust Cifuentes' judgement of a character. If he doesn't think Winks is all in then I don't think he should be playing. What I would say is that it's been clear throughout his time at Leicester that Soumare is a bit of a world beater in training. Maybe Cifuentes just needs a few games to realise that he's bone idle. Can't imagine he'll have too many starts left in him when Barry Bannan sprints past him next week.
  19. It is incredible how some people view the game. There's a bloke near me who thinks the only important thing for a striker is pace. Loves Daka. Thought Musa was treated unfairly. Thinks Ulloa is a carthorse etc etc. Ayew has plenty of genuinely good attributes needed to be a moderately successful striker at this level. But he's slow, doesn't press, lacks a goalscoring instinct and isn't a great dribbler. He'll be absolutely perfect to bring off the bench. Someone that can look after the ball, draw fouls, bring our talented wingers into play etc.
  20. £28m is a mental amount of money to spend for him IMO. Hope we have a sell on clause. Attacking midfielder with 3 goals in over 4.5k minutes in the Prem.
  21. Rudkin has £50k a week for the next 4 years with McBurnie's name on it.
  22. Has there ever been a more pointless footballer? What does he do?
  23. Jaiswal would be right up there with him but absolutely one of the best.
  24. Duckett averages 47 under Ben Stokes with an SR of 87. He's been a fantastic addition to the team and is one of the first on the plane for me.
