Cooper really is clueless. He'll probably be sacked before the end of the season but he is doing untold damage saddling us with ageing journeymen on big wages for years. We're going to end up being the new Stoke.

I would take Lo Celso in a heartbeat.

Assume his "thinking" is to have a double pivot of Winks and Skipp, with Ndidi in the 10.

Have you ever watched him play?!

Going to take a miracle to chase this down from here under scoreboard pressure. Just let them get too many in the second half of their innings.

Cooper is filling the squad with mediocre journeymen who we will be stuck with you for years. It's so depressing.

Yep, that seems about right. Then Cooper can field his dream front 6: Skipp, Winks, Ndidi Ayew Fofana Reid Lots of PL experience there!

To think when I heard on the radio that we had agreed a £20m fee for a Tottenham player, I was thinking it must be for Lo Celso. Tottenham have absolutely had our pants down again. The club are just trolling us now.

83 off the last 6.3 overs.

Looks like we are blowing pretty much our entire summer budget on a CB and a CDM, neither of whom are obviously better than what we have. Meantime, we're relying on a 19 year old loan signing to be our sole creative midfielder and we don't have a single striker under the age of 37 who looks PL ready.

20m for yet another midfielder who never scores or assists. Give me strength.

Why do Sporting even need him when they have Gyokeres? Or is Gyokeres leaving?

I know what you mean but it would be great if there was a proper fan zone next to the ground, with decent beer and good food stalls, together with massive screens showing live games. Sadly, that's still on the drawing board as part of the stalled stadium expansion.

Indeed, just look at Taunton.

I think the ground is an issue in terms of attracting more fans. The facilities are pretty rudimentary and the playing area is so vast that on the Milligan Road side of the ground the stands are so far from the pitch that nobody wants to sit there. If we could do the planned redevelopment with a smaller playing area, I think it would boost the club a lot.

The gap between the top teams and the rest is getting bigger every year, I'm afraid.

If we'd got Hlozek and Zaha, and someone like Hamer in CM, things would look a lot better, I agree.

It doesn't matter. Under Dyche they'll grind out enough wins, scoring 60% of their goals off set pieces.

Close this thread. If he has other options, which seems to be the case, there is no chance he'll choose to join us.

Will be fuming if Ricardo is left out by Cooper.

Luckily the stream returned for the last 4 balls!

The website went down later than that. The stream also froze at the same time.

Jeez, we made that tough in the end, but well done boys!

Oh really? Not heard of him previously, my bad!

This Turner bloke is killing us. Seems a recurring theme to be 3 down for nothing....
