Excellent scouting we meed a ball carrier in midfield. Give them hamza and mcateer and some cash in jan.

So Stolarczyk played last night? If Hermansen is out its a no brainer that a half match fit keeper is better than Ward right? p.s half match fit for keeper just assumes not as sharp in between the sticks but Ward is like having a prize winner from the audience on goal.

I really really want to believe we have got some signings lined up ready for transfer window opening, players got homes ready to move into etc but have we ever done things that proactively?

Well lets hope the rumours about Top not trusting rudkin on cooper and taking the initiative on himself to Sack him and appoint RVN are true and do the same in January and appoint someone else to sort the transfers or even just listen to RVN and do exactly what he wants not listen to Rudkins poisonous advice.

Yep best we can hope is that we just fix the defence with a CB and RB and attacking right winger and pray for winks/ndidi/soumare can keep us up with no more injuries or suspensions and pray we dont see hamza skipp partnership again.

“But Mcateer works so hard”

We need to take drastic defensive measures at the back as soon as the January window opens—no delays. Using RVN’s contacts, we should move quickly to get Lindelof on the cheap since his contract is almost up. Try Loan Maguire for a fee and send Edouard back and invest in a solid right-back. This way, we’d have a centre-back partnership that’s already played 70-80 games together, while also strengthening our defensive line with experienced players. It’s time to make serious changes. I dont think we can afford to chance a young centre back now and try get them to bond with an existing player, for every Fofana you get an Okoli.

Didn’t RVN say we have money to spend BUT we are not in a rush🤣🤣🤣

Absolutely 99% certain on this. We signed Ward for 10 Million as backup to Kasper and there was a clause to say we owe him a bonus every time hes not on named on the bench. Hence multiple times naming 2 keepers on bench. Club cant afford not to name him.

If hes as good as his youtube real we are nearly there for survival if we buy a couple defenders also

Pope is out for them with a twisted knee, hopefully a big loss in goal.

As you mentioned muscle loss is the big part of an ACL rehab however the reason that it takes so long because the new graft takes about 6-12 months to heal as the revascularization process for a ligament graft takes so long for it turn into a mature functional body part again. I think oxygen chambers shorten that compared to the average joe but its still 6 + months plus.

Absolutely - but that world would need to be a world where the other “top 6” and Villa do not exist anymore🤣

he came off against Brighton when we are 2-0 down so please don’t include that as a contribution 🤣 but i cant argue with the west ham game as we won. However Ayew has won us more points alone this season but no one is calling anyone embarrassing for not wanting him to start, there is some extremely blue tinted specs going on here.

Exactly this, Mcateer adds nothing other than “works hard” ”nice lad”. I genuinely genuinely cant see how people think he should be starting. Ayew and Mcateer out and Buonanotte and Mavididi in.

I have just found out he's only 25!?! I genuinely thought he was like 28/29 ish since he seems to have been around for ages!! lets pray to the french footballing gods once he peaks he will be a GOAT for us. Unfortunately i dont see it being here though as likely lets his contract run out and goes elsewhere.

Please do not manifest this yearly bull$hit we hear from the manager🤣

I really really hope you get your man Stengs

I think if i read the rules correctly we should be able to take additional international loans out? Can someone fact check this?

I agree, although we do need that many players still overall. But am of the idea of buy players that massively improve starting 11 and push the other players to the bench. Signing skipp and okoli for like £35 Million to sit on the bench makes no sense. I think we currently need minimum 3 quality premier league standard players in that starting 11 thats a CB RB and attacking Wide Man/forward

Harsh, very very harsh… but struggling to disagree on any point. Top lad though.

Harsh but true unfortunately, he comes across as a top top lad and it pains me to say it but nice guys are not keeping us in the league.

Poor lad was carrying 11 players creativity on his shoulders for majority of the game, deffo deserves some quality around him.

If Mcateer or Ayew start id genuinely be RVN out🤣🤣 they are that bad.

Wonder if RVN might change his mind on the urgency of January transfers.
