Just send the kids and a couple of the old boys like Vardy and Albrighton. Keep the main squad closer to home and do some behind closed doors matches.

In fairness to Youri, he did spend the first half of the season at RB with Tim pushing into RW and Maddison coming central due to the tactical masterclass on display from Brendan. Second half of the season you could tell he was struggling for fitness following his injury, the desire was there, the body wasn't.

Castagne being players player couldn't be more of a joke. The player who is so dumb that he is always a yard behind the rest of the backline playing the strikers onside and to compound his mistake, attempts to make the recovery run whilst waving his arms around in the air akin to the wacky waving inflatable tube man to call for offside when the lino won't flag due to VAR.

Alot of the time people are under NDAs (non-disclosure agreements) and can't actively talk about these things in fine detail. There are several projects that I have been involved with that I am under NDAs on, including other clubs stadium plans... Patience is key, they will have sunk enough money into the project by now that they'll want to see it through - alot of the finer details take some working out and anything involving the council will take some time.

The problem is teams know we are going to play through Barnes because we don't have anyone in the right 3rd of the pitch apart from Timmy due to the stupid inverted winger thing, whether that be Maddison, Praet, Perez or Nacho. It makes it so easy for the opposition to handle, every time Barnes got one on one with Trent, Henderson came over to double up. We're too predictable and easy to counter.

So what you're saying is we're out of the FA cup live on national TV?

I'm going to interpret his head shaking and disappointment to be leveled towards Rodgers and that poor display rather than the fans expressing themselves at the final whistle. I'm going to remain optimistic that he does in fact still have the club in his best interests and Rodgers is simply still in the job because we are yet to find the right replacement. I see little value in sacking him and putting Davies and kolo in charge, they are clearly part of the problem. The only other option being Stowell, who may well motivate and get a response from the team, but a tactician he is not. As for the 'lack of money', not an issue, the amount of money they can invest is where the problem lies hence using FBS as the shirt sponsor etc. due to FFP applying to us as we are not Man city. Yes there is blame to be placed onto the board as a whole for the stupidity of the contracts we've been handing out to some (lanky **** and Bertrand are main examples) that have ultimately shot us in the foot in the last window. I'm still with Top, speculation about his priorities and abilities to run this club are harsh given the success we've had since Vichai and that we all ate up Rodgers excuses for missing out on champions League due to injuries rather than the man himself being a bottler.

I'm sure playing him higher up the pitch rather than CM will go along way to help with that

Yep

Ask and you shall receive - new loan manager - Robert Huth

Give him a shirt to sign that says "f*** the monarchy" on the back

Doesn't matter if he did, everyone knows you've not got a leg to stand on demanding a transfer when you've just signed a 5 year contract. What kind of pillock would try that?

Disagree. It's what he did at Salzburg, it's what he did for us in Europe. This coming deep for the ball feels like a Brendan thing...

The audacity to blame ndidi for his shocking touch before welbeck tackled him is baffling.

"grown as a player but also as a man" - Still got some way to go before I'd consider you mature enough to be a man. Just a petulant child.
