  1. Hopefully Jakes Evans in too.
  2. May I point out that Jake Evans is a star in the making as a winger. We've played him up front as a striker just because we can but I'd be very surprised if he makes it to the top level as a centre forward over being a winger or a 10.
  3. Hopefully now in the squad for the remaining 7 games. Looked confident, is evidently strong and hist first touch is not a a danger to society nor does he nutmeg himself so he's a major upgrade.
  4. Don't agree with this logic at all.
  5. Should already be on 50-100 games for us. Was clear as day in pre-season as a 16-17 year old that he was a clas act in the making.
  6. These are exactly the sort of side who could genuinely hammer us. They way they set up and their physicality and speed, I'd be amazed if we muster an xG more than 0.02 again. It's a shame the U21s won't be streamed tonight as I'm away in London so will just follow the updates for that and leave the first team slobs well alone.
  7. Had a good week, got my IBD under control and managed just shy of 50km. Did a running workshop yesterday which was very interesting, mainly stuff I'd heard before but it really emphasised the discipline needed to build fatigue resistance with a lot of zone 2 slow running. Often seems counter intuitive but I get it, whether I do it is another matter. Went out for 2 hours today and was a battle, boring as sin.
  8. Love that shout, same agent as Okoli.
  9. Only we could smoke another team 12-3 across 3 games, dismantling them ruthlessly and still be all misty eyed over their manager. We deserve immediate liquidation and no phoenix from the flames. End us.
  10. It's the most obvious eventuality I've ever seen. Of course it's going to happen if we don't see a major shake up in our ownership/director and board level. Just chalk it up on the board and then wait to tick it off, the end of this ownership is coming one day.
  11. Kamikaze football please. I want to see aggression and recklessness. Our season is in terms of any meaning so there's absolutely no reason to continue to pick this mob of underperforming riff raff who hopefully will all be bounced out the club come the end of May. Inject some fresh impetus in to this sorry season and unleash some of the academy players.
  12. From an accounting perspective this doesn't make that much difference. It's a cash flow thing, which is an issue and we've got massively out of kilter with it for a good 3-4 years.
  13. He was excellent in 2023/24 and was used extremely well. His wages has nothing to do with whether he was going to be any good or not, not does it this season either.
  14. Dowman is absolutely outrageous. Interesting to see Page and King drop back down to the U18s. I wonder if they'll give Opoku a game for the U21s on Monday for fitness.
  15. To be fair you're not the rational one to listen to on Vardy, if you'd had your own way he'd have been gone under Puel. But we can't afford to carry a main player who cannot press. At Championship level he'd still be a dangerous impact player and was used very well last season to maximise this. But this season I just cannot get my head around overplaying him, especially since the turn of the year.
  16. Got absolutely no problem with Vardy staying on on £30-40k a week and being used like he was in 2023/24 (or even less) but if he's leading our attack as first choice when he simply cannot press then I'm afraid it's time we draw the curtain on the greatest footballing relationship the modern era will ever see.
  17. It's just a refreshing watch as well, to see positivity, bravery and we tend to score the occasional goal as well 😂
  18. At what point will this club start to have some pride about it and get some principles that they discover whether any potential new manager is aligned with? Both Cooper and Ruud have been appallingly off kilter in this regard. End the season NOW
  19. Put don't know to everything
  20. Having seen the Wolves result tonight, if the club have an ounce of credibility left they'd notify Ayew, Reid, Faes, Vestergaard, Coady, Winks, Soumare and Daka that their services are no longer required this season/ever again and to make their own way back from Manchester. Get Aluko, Amartey, Cartwright, Braybrooke, Page, Evans, Monga and Joseph up to Manchester early tomorrow.
  21. Happens to me almost every time I step up the mileage significantly and/or push the pace over decent distance. Who said running is good for you again?
  22. Mads Justin Faes Okoli Aluko Ndidi Winks Thomas Evans Vardy Monga
  23. In our case it's a blessing in disguise. Dread to think how much additional money we'd have wasted. I think PSR should be tighter if anything for us. We should be allowed a net spend of 80 pence.
  24. Vestergaard has no book value left and his wages in the Championship ought to see a European club after him for a nominal fee, the issue is whether he'd be willing to move.
