Blue ROI

Most attractive fanbase...You'll never sing that!

Fair play to the club for sticking to a high fee. If Mahrez goes to Man City I'd imagine it will be before the World Cup starts. One way or another hes going but would be good for us to get it wrapped up early and not be distracted heading into the pre-season and Summer transfer window.

Would be gutted but I wouldn't begrudge Vardy a move to Atletico. Champions League football, outside chance of a league title and one big money move he surely has in him. One Thing in our favour though is the Mahrez situation. Club wont want to lose 2 prize assets before the start of the season along with interest in Maguire and/or N'Didi. Despite our indifferent form we will have a battle to keep our star players. More so than last summer.

Magnificent score close to the end. Same fella did an advert with Mahrez for Eir Sport in 2016.

Great that we got Pereira but I'd be wary of all these links with OG Nice players. Like junior Lewis playing on Taylors teams all those years ago.

Would prefer the captain to be a defender. Vardy our most influential player but you'd need him to be focused on making the runs, tearing into defenders close to the touch line, creating chances, scoring. Being captain runs the risk of taking from what he does best. Besides imagine him trying to reason with someone like Moss after West Ham 2016. Maguire would be a far more stable player and much more adept at dealing with officials. Should he feature at the world cup and excel he would also be a great figure for senior and youth environments to aspire to. That's assuming he'll be with us next year!

Here's hoping he'll be alright. The extent of the injury has upset any follower of the game I'd say. Seems like a very decent man. One of the most consistent players of recent years too.

Last good one from start to finish for me was France 98. The last few have started off great but then the good games get few and far between from the quarter final stage onwards. The 2010 World Cup was appalling. Worst one I can ever remember.

@Mayofox any update on the Tom Parsons injury?

Fixed to include the great escape.

Mahrez heading back to the airport so from Friday?

I just completed this quiz. My Score 70/100 My Time 79 seconds

What a game. Proabaly the most enjoyable one of ours since 2014. For neutrals anyway. Strange to concede 5 goals and be content with the performance. A bit sidetracked today with the return of the GAA championships in Ireland and trying to watch both at the same time. Thought we played very well and were a bit unlucky not to get a draw at least.At long last we've started games more positively. Morgan and Simpson were the weak links and after today surely we wont have them starting regularly. Had we a stronger defence spurs wouldnt have played it around like they did from goals 2-4. A new RB/CB are paramount now. Though Fuchs has played well the last 2 games to be fair to him. On borrowed time yes but he still is effective. We were sensational at times from midfield up. Some of our play was very smart and created a lot of chances. The goals were magnificent. Gray, Mahrez and Nachoman have had their critics but today was collectively the best they have all played together. Vahrez/Mardy has been very kind to us and its a shame they wont play together for us again. It was good while it lasted. I was ready to kick claude out myself after the Palace disaster but the last 2 games has made me reconsider. Think its worth giving him the first 10 games next season to sort it out. We have enough about us not to be relegated at our best so its worth a gamble.
