Mukasa's effort is disgusting. Why pick somebody who doesn't have any skin in the game

Vestergaard classic

James looks crocked

Fack off

Why are we making threads about Cov? Do you guys genuinely care that much, let alone at the moment?

Monga at 75 mins if we're very lucky

After claiming we don't have the type of player for the scrap (he's right). Look at Skipp's fight compared to everyone else. Embarrassing

Skipp throws his head into danger and his teammate bottles the follow up. Classic

Fatawu has fully lost it. Could have easily kept that in and run forward but played that bizarre pass back to Ricardo, all because he slowed right down

Back to the solid plan of everyone standing still whilst the 2 players with the leata quality (Daka and Skipp) do all the running

Rudkin's face on that replay

No, just that we've hurt his feelings

Was Top about to cry or laugh?

Hahahaha. In a season full of them, that's right up there. All came from Vestergaard turning back when he could have easily passed it forward to Skipp. Obvs still Begovic's fault

Yep. Won't give him slack in terms of output but at least he's one I'd never say there's a lack of effort

'The Leicester City story'

Are you joking? That was absolutely class

Good to see Daka being the only 1 who can be arsed as per

This is the weirdest game I've ever seen. More like a pre-season game or 2 teams that were relegated with a record low points tally

'Pay them off somewhat'. Not fully. So I'm talking about subsidising their wages as part of transfers to other clubs. And given almost all of them will only have a year left, mutually terminating the contract, which would mean paying less overall, will actually be a net benefit PSR wise (on its own) And the other aspect is they the financial rules are different in L1 so that's going to change how we operate. Plus, in the examples you've given, these were PL players who were not going to be able to match their wages or playing level ambitions at another club. We're now in the situation we're all of these players will think they're 2 levels better so will probably be happy to take a slight wage cut to get back to that level. None of them going to be happy rotting in L1. Most of those players have now had their PSR value written off or reduced to close to nothing so again, not the same consideration. Now this all ignores the fact that if we get rid of players, we'll have to replace them which costs money (and let's be honest, we won't have been scouting players for this level). And then of course, if we did go up, we're back under the same financial regulations so that needs to be keep in the background. Ultimately, I think we'll be lumped with many of them but not because the players don't want to go but because Top/Rudkin won't realise we need to get rid

Exactly. Some will surely go, especially given the difference PSR/FFP implications, but I just imagine the club won't see the urgency to pay them off somewhat in order to save more money.

But that should have also been the case this year. You'd think it will be a certainty this year but I worry that Top will still have his head in the clouds and not understand the gravity of the situation. Would surprise me to see many of the bigger names still here

Does Harry Winks' dad also prefer Oliver Skipp then? Would probably explain things... Think you might have misread that old chap

I never go on Facebook but randomly found myself on there and saw the post about end of season awards. Didn't see a single genuine/positive response which is totally unheard of. There's going to be some oddballs that defend KP whatever, but relegation to L1 will turn plenty

He's been frozen out for Winks really which is even more depressing
