Patson Daka has stumbled into the chat…

Love those questions to managers. No serious manager throws their players under the bus. “Are you happy with your options up top in Daka and Ayew?” ”No, they are ******* sh*te, but what you do gonna do?”

Unless one (or more) of Wink, Soumare and Ndidi leave, I think we should tough it out, as it would be an older player, or a prospect. The older player would be expensive, the prospect risks blocking Will’s progress. Just opinions though.

Why isn’t the attacking mid Alves?

See Soumare wants to come off

Daka's touch is a thing alright

That's Vesty Luke's positioning seems better

Luke doing ok, occasional lapse, but ok

Loves to be megged does Vesty

Too good

Abdul is going make some people cry this season

Yes, it was always unlikely that the team we would like to be available for the first game, was available and we would hope we would be further along, but we aren't for whatever reason. (The usual) Lets just hope Marti is still learning and more movement occurs the coming weeks.

Scientific method in action.

Based on?

Selling 3 players would still leave us with a big squad, so we could have Nelson come in if fitter, Winks coming in, Monga starting, maybe Jakub, there are plenty of options in house. The midfield is stinking the place out though.

People struggled to accept it last time, doubt it would be any different this time. He is not getting any quicker though

Because we have a large squad? Because Coady showed tomorrow is a different day? Was not commenting on arrivals, more about others already here.

Don`t agree with Tags, as I doubt this XI has much bearing on next weeks XI

No the buyer recognises the ‘fee’ over the period of the contract, the seller gets the full fee at the time of contract exchange.

£25m plus add ons they reckon on Kumb.

But isn’t this exactly why we have so many players? We have a price, we don’t budge, they don’t move.

The football equivalent of passing a large log after some days of constipation

Sad but true. Without the ability for intra-generational self-reflection we will always have a scary lead time in our meaningful societal shifts. Think you are being very kind with a single generation, because as much as it gets watered down between generations, it does not disappear due to the wisdom of ‘say what you see’.

Fantastic

But the Spanish have a referee, so it seems fair.
