Haha i've not even bothered with the highlights, I was at a festival so the whole thing passed me by thankfully

Haha imagine! It'd be the absolute clearest indicator that he wants to be sacked and is calling the board out to be fair. If he does play Ward I expect the team to down tools and us to get annihilated.

Nah Wolves are on a 6 game winning streak. Southampton are about as crap as us

Unfortunately not I fancied us to bag against Brighton after hearing about their defence crisis. Aside from that, this is the one game I've been banking on us looking like a respectable side going forwards

So he's been playing injured since the Newcastle game? Jesus christ, we hate our players All the best Mads. Likable player and hopefully continues to improve and becomes a real top drawer keeper.

I'd expect a few goals. Both teams should be playing with relative freedom which means they should both be trying to score goals. I'm gonna go for a 3-3

I'd be all over the opposite, but they clearly seem them as likely to happen as I do

Logically it makes sense to develop when demand is down, assuming they actually have designs on being top half premier league club, which to be fair we've not seen evidence of for about 4 years.

If we don't replace him with another beast, I'll definitely be popping back into this thread to see if people now see what he brought to the team. This is his stats this season against other top level cms. This is the stats from the 19/20 season. I think you can chalk the passing and lower interceptions down to the fact that we're more of a low block team and less of a pressing and ball dominating than we were back then. He was also asked to keep it simple whereas now there seems to be more expectation for him to be Pirlo rather than Savage.

Rodgers went from using him at what he was best at and decided to make him play in a way that didn't suit him. 4 1 4 1 he was beautiful. When it moved it a 4 2 3 1 and he was asked to play with the ball more, it was no surprise to see a man that struggles to play football have performance levels decline. Having him next to Soumare is tough on him as well. May as well be in there by himself.

It'd be so incredibly dumb to sell this lad. We're not gonna get anywhere near his peak value and we need a quality centre back. It'd genuinely be worse than giving Vesty another 3 years, which is single handedly the worst decision I've seen a football club make.

How was that not a pen, he clearly takes Merino's left left before winning the ball?

Didn't think that was a pen to be fair, way too soft. I agree with Clattenberg on that one, if your man's throwing his arms in the air he's faking it.

Clattenburg admitting he wouldn't give a deserved yellow because it's early. Horrible to hear officials admitting they don't apply the rules correctly and it just being accepted.
