It might brighten the place up a bit

I realise no one's going to have much good to say about us recently but there's a really strange theme on Foxestalk of people bigging up every other club to the point of lunacy and belittling Leicester at every chance they get. Southampton have underperformed massively at times this season. Before we played them (and beat them 4-1) they were being talked up on here like they were prime Brazil.

You could always just watch the highlights when they go up straight after the game 😂

It'll play out exactly the same as having the 3 at the moment with inverted full back. Only difference is a libero like Stones goes into the midfield instead of Ricardo. The teams we've played done have to worry about a Justin or Ricardo overlapping our wingers so they just have Mavididi or Fatawu running out of ideas constantly. Id love to talk to Enzo directly and make him explain why he thinks this system makes us better off. I should have paid £300 for that shit meal with Gulliem. If I knew I wouldn't punch anyone I might have done.

I see Rodri has come out criticising Real Madrid for playing a different style and beating them. I remember similar when we beat them 5-2. There seems to be a very arrogant attitude from any lovers of this philosophy that it's the only true way to play football, and anyone who questions it or plays a different way somehow doesn't deserve to win.

You just know he's sat there wearing his Garmin watch as they read the evidence.

Anyone know when there's a verdict? Haven't been this on edge since OJ Simpson's trial.

I think people get annoyed he's paid so much by the BBC so effectively want to call him a BBC employee. The truth is he's the best football presenter and he could get even more elsewhere.

And that's the important bit in court. I don't dispute anything you say and it is a case of who you are and not what you've done in this world. The BBC sack a local radio show host every day of the week for what Lineker did. But we are talking black and white, in court and this guy did this as a freelance is not a defense in any way shape or form.

No one was sad to see Chilwell go and certainly wasn't sad when Schlupp went.

Enzo on The Chase -

Sounds like that might be the case, but he given them enough rope to hang him with by being so stupid didn't he? Plus it's impossible to prove that's why he went after him. The other matter was dealt with. It's really clutching at straws by Stringer.

No chance. It's quite clear he wasn't allowed to do what he did and the examples he's used in defence are poor. Lineker isn't a BBC employee, he's freelance. Advertising walkers as freelance and accepting free gifts for runs are worlds apart. It sounds like him and this fella have had it in for each other and he's bit off more than he can chew by trying to get him sacked first. He might very well be right that all this only come to light because he's grassed him up about COVID, but he can't prove that.

Remember when some lad told him to stay off the Buckfast and he threatened to sue him? You don't get radio like that anymore 😂

Please god no

Very Grealish like. Refs have clearly been told to look out for him doing it as well.

I don't think the role he's asked to play benefits the stats they look at for shit like this. If he's playing a traditional wing back position he probably has 10-15 assists.

It's a dog eat dog world

That doesn't matter if we do our job

Thank you for mentioning Guillem. He's proper pissed me off.

I think it's pretty obvious Vestegaard plays what role Coady would have. Faes isn't going to be dropped.

If you can keep the ball in between Faes and Vestegaard but make allowances for L1 jeering you

Even on Football Manager you have a couple of different tactics trained. It's bog standard shit.

I was laughing at Cov too until I realised we need them to still be in with a shout of the play offs when they play Ipswich...

You're right, especially last night we were unlucky to lose. But we should be creating many many more chances than we do against these standards of teams. It's a disgrace that we aren't.
