  1. A Sunday league manager can put 11 players in his 6yd box, the Everton physio covered more ground than the combined team did.
  2. Would JJ pushed up to RW behind Woyo be an option? We need to plug holes and just swapping like for like at RB and leaving a guy that wants to come inside at RW will produce the same issues for Woyo. JJ has played the combined roles in every game, he gets in the box, shoots and provides crosses everything a winger will do. This then leaves Facundo to come off the bench but in a 10 role if Bilal has run himself into the ground. JJ does need a break mins as played virtually every minute of every game.
  3. So for footballing stories the Mail is spot on and for everything else it’s a joke rag, is that what I’m reading here?
  4. Report last week stated Monaco were 1 of only a few clubs who could afford Rashford’s wages when they were linked, so I don’t want any of this option to buy cr4p front up or push off.
  5. They have 1 up on us yes but that's only because they haven't had success yet, our model changed the moment we won the league it had to because of reward & expectation. They are just starting on this slippery slope, they haven't finished in the top 4 yet & could easily slip & finish out of the top 8 let alone top 4 with 16 games still to play. They are only 6pts ahead of Man C & Newcastle who at any time could go on a run & then only 8pts ahead of Villa in 8th so they are looking at twisting with big money signings to pull that gap further away, which is when that slope becomes steeper. As mentioned they are already rewarding current players with new improved terms, they are looking at breaking their transfer record which will probably come with breaking their wage record also, they could finish this window with possibly 6 players on over £100kpw when they started january they only had 1. Yes they have players that could be sold to offset but so did we, it quickly dries up because you start shopping in a different store so your incomings are getting more expensive, yes the odd 1 will still slip through, but within 2-3 seasons they will have a squad on wages similar to what we were & not being able to offload players that they no longer want & the flexibility goes & every signing has to be a success as just 1 or 2 duds can destroy clubs our size. I for 1 couldn't careless that its Forest doing it, any club socking it to the man gets my vote but sadly we know how it ends regardless of how many people say stick to the model that got you there because unfortunately you can't stick to it & compete.
  6. His 5x 1st team appearances = 1hr 2mins of football
  7. It's certainly not the competition that Real Madrid, Man C, Juv & PSG were expecting, i won't put Dortmund & BM in that bracket as they didn't want the super lge break away but the others must be livid with this format hitting their revenues. Seeing RM in 16th makes me smile especially when reading they are the 1st club to pass the €1bn revenue in a single season
  8. I think you’ll find that Forest will go the same way as we did, I’ve already posted on their current wage structure & how it’s about to be blown out the water just like ours did. So far they sit in the top 4 well done them but they have not yet finished in the top 4, & like us they are starting to offer new contracts to their existing players as a reward for getting this far and to ward off potential buyers. Now take Murillo arguably 1 of their most important players, he was sitting on Ā£30kpw but has now signed a new long term contract, his CB partner is on Ā£105kpw & he was being touted as a target for Liverpool..so with those 3 factors how much do you think Murillo is now on? They are also in negotiations with another 4 current players all of which are currently on around Ā£70kpw so going north of that. If they were to get Wissa &/or Cunha how much do you think for and how much Ā£kpw it would take, success comes at a price that 13/14 clubs in the league can’t afford.
  9. Oww so close but 1 needs binning asap
  10. Top signing and well played Tigers moving quickly to replace Watson
  11. + Philogene that’s some sized squad that McKenna has to juggle now. He certainly has options but now needs to keep them happy
  12. Ronald Koeman got Southampton to their highest ever finishes back to back 7th & then 6th in his 3yrs there before getting Everton into Europe before it went wrong there.
  13. The Last of Us S2 coming in April
  14. I think that's pretty much the process for all GP surgery's now, they only have a limited number of slots & you could be on the phone from 7:45 & still be 52nd in the Q meaning your probably going to miss out anyway...then if you did get through & received a slot its usually a phone back appointment by the GP to discuss your issue & then if they deem it urgent enough to warrant a face to face they will arrange. The infrastructure & facilities are not keeping pace with the number of new chimneys that are going up, huge 500-1000+ home estates going up & all then allocated to an already over crowded GP surgery.
  15. Wolves obviously have that link to Portuguese players and Silva would no doubt choose them over us, if he had a choice, because of it and I’ve said in the past couple of days how I don’t need to keep reading links but I’m surprised we haven’t had the links to Dutch and Nordic talent which is an area where Ruud’s influence might put us in pole position if it came down to a player choosing between 2 clubs. There must be some nuggets in our Ā£3-5m price bracket from the region.
  16. + we aren’t dropping Ā£25m+ on a single player unfortunately
  17. That report mentions loan with obligation to buy, Seems an odd 1 as he only signed for Rennes 7 mths ago and has a contract till jun 29 šŸ¤·ā€ā™‚ļø We are still in negotiations with Moder along with Everton and Feyenoord apparently

    For sure, it was 0:1 at the time potentially that gets us back in the game but just can’t understand why it wasn’t/ hasn’t been discussed therefore we won’t get to hear on ref watch why they didn’t give.

    Why was the challenge on Soumare not a penalty, they showed reply’s of it in game and highlights but no one mentioned anything. A shoulder to shoulder challenge is fair when both players are running along side each other and contesting the ball, a shoulder challenge when a player doesn’t look at the ball but just targets the player having to change direction in order to do so is taking a player out which is a foul and as it was in the box it’s a penalty no? but nothing šŸ¤·ā€ā™‚ļø
  20. @leicsmacsomething for you & like minded minds if you’ve missed it unless it’s already been mentioned on here. https://news.sky.com/story/the-wonder-material-which-could-hold-the-key-to-near-limitless-energy-13290834 https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/articles/c14n01d7d0po
  21. The likes of Man U & Spurs generate £100m match day revenue alone per season, we are at a push to get £12m, the whole development is needed to progress.
  22. Haven’t most of our best signings come out the blue, what is the constant need for rumours or links, all that happens anyway is we get 100 pages on how the mighty have fallen being linked to ā€˜x’ & we are joke, & that player is shite, & & & Ruud has said they are looking & I’m happy to take that at face value, if it turns out to be bullsh!t then he’ll get the backlash when the window shuts I’d imagine.
  23. Luckily my post works across multiple threads šŸ˜
