He's better than what we've got but do we really want to be adding another defender with the speed of a paraplegic to the squad?

I don't think that is a rumour. I just made it up as a hypothetical situation cos some people were saying Buo being out means he could be going back. Have you seen it elsewhere as a genuine rumour then?

He's a reserve keeper. Last season he was number 3. He might still be. What kind of threat is "If you don't fxxk off we're going to keep paying you but we won't play you... er, anymore than we did before we realised you were shit". It's the most empty threat going.

Yeah I'm not sure I buy this idea that Brighton want to recall him. Firstly, we have to agree to that, they can't just decide they want him. And if they did and we agreed to it then there's no reason for us to not try and get the absolute most out of him before he goes back. However. We have been credited with an interest in Ferguson. We can't sign him on loan because we Facundo. They don't want to sell Facundo, however they are open to selling Ferguson because he's basically said he wants out to kickstart his career. It may be that we have said we want him on a loan with obligation should we stay up. A move that would suit them, Ferguson and possibly us if he does indeed come and help us stay up. But this is adding 2 and 2 to get 37. But unless Ruud really doesn't rate him I don't know why he'd let him go back. The only other reason, and probably the most plausible thinking about it, is he knows we need a new defence and he's going to sacrifice Buo, to go along with Edouard giving us money to buy 2 defenders and spots to bring 2 in on loan. And so we can't risk him getting injured if Brighton have agreed to take him back.

He's probably telling him to join him at Brighton in January....

Facundo wasn't telling him to come here. That's the striker that Spurs have loaned out.

Yes.

Why would Chilwell "give a shit"?

Funny, cos I saw that about the recall earlier and thought "Shit, there goes any chance of that!". It's said that Emery wants to run the rule over him. Prem loan?

Tajon Buchanon RB 25 Pro's Versatile, rapid. Cons, not playing RB since Inter transfer, possibly loan only, previous injuries. Boselli CB 21 P: Quick, good on the ball, 1 year left on his deal in January. C: Gomez CB 21 P: As above, contract ends Dec 26, LEFT footed! C: Hato LB 18 P: Good at everything. Can play CB as well as LB to a high standard. C: Ajax player, will presumably cost a fxxking fortune! Flamingo CDM 21 P: Strong, comfortable on the ball, can play CB, an ever present in all clubs. Has played abroad already. C: Only in his first year at PSV, would cost. Sooooo probably just get someone 35 with 6 months on their contract for £10mill.

The only positive, and it's got fxxk all to do with us, is that results elsewhere mean we are no closer to the drop zone than we were prior to this week, points wise.

A (great) goal and a couple of assists. I expect MotM. Should have dabbled.

What the fxxk is this?

We need a whole new backline. The lot. I thought before it's too much but seriously they're muck. Vesty is the only one decent enough on the ball to warrant making a case for, but being slow as fxxk it mitigates his more favourable attributes. We can't afford to sit deep with these players, and it affects the whole setup. There's too much space between everyone, and that's because our entire defensive line is so slow, of mind as much of body, so we can't play higher up. We can get away with one CB without pace if the other 3 around them are rapid enough to cover. Right now we've got slow players in every position starting at the back. We sit deep. It renders Mads attributes as an outfield keeper redundant (though at present that's not a thing) so if you're going to sit in you need to be well drilled and solid, Dychelike. We're not. And we've not got the players to be. We need an entire overhaul of the defence. This backline isn't far off the one that took us down. We've got VK, Faes, JJ, Vestegaard who couldn't get into the side that went down and Coady a player who couldn't get into the side that finished one place above us that season. And presently Ward is the icing on that cake. A cake made of shit.

Maybe Jakub had an adverse reaction after his u21 game if he's not even made the squad.

Buonanotte will play the RW if Ruud wants one. Though getting another in wouldn't be a terrible idea.

Very slowly...

The sentiment on the Potters forum is generally not great. But then those threads generally aren't after a loss. Especially a loss to 10 men and missing a penalty. If they don't have a new manager in place soon it might be worth trying to get him in somewhere else.

Cover was taken off at half time, I'm guessing that was tactical cos another PV player came off at H/T as well rather than injury.

Saints look the only certainty. Ipswich could still jump above the pair of us, they're currently above Wolves.

1-2 Even more annoyed Cunha wasn't banned cos I was gonna put Jesus in my FPL instead of him! BUGGER!

Just play the audio to your mate... Commentary give it Ormondroyd.

We are, aren't we?
