Probably up until some point around 2021. Don't mistake the tens for this shitstorm.

This points to a Hermansen sale because we've miscalculated again.

I'm very disappointed here I thought that was deliberate

Just the usual ineptness. It's impossible to have even a slight bit of enthusiasm if you have any sort of analytical ability. Sick to death of these idiots we're run by and sick of people pretending they aren't idiots.

They were on 0 points for a start.

We need to just grow up and buy Adebayo. Fed up of watching games of ours where the striker is totally bypassed (I forgive 37 year old Vardy, Daka less so). Very strong presence, good finisher, decent all round game. He's what people think Cannon is. The sort who'd give me a bit of optimism which I'm severely struggling with.

It categorically is not.

One signing in a month and it was an obligation signing (Fatawu). This is completely unacceptable - yet again.

The signing that encapsulates this regime. - Poor tactical fit, isn't really a natural ball-playing defender even though he's not horrendous at it - Has been overlooked by basically three managers out of three in the space of 18 months - Was bought for the first one, took out a loan to facilitate this that has later knocked us on the cusp of a points deduction. Said manager should obviously already been sacked by this point - Big, long contract - Pretty big transfer fee And yet I'd wish him good luck. None of this is his fault. But a complete joke of a signing.

Assuming that's the soonest that they can be announced. Fat chance of that though, they often miss their own deadlines.

Just remember where we were three years ago and this is what we are now. How do people defend this?

We all know how they'll play this. They're very predictable.

Chelsea are firmly in the United camp now of won't threaten for anything serious for a long time. Their ownership are beyond clueless.

It's got all the hallmarks of yet another crap summer. But why would anyone expect anything else. Same regime that have a track record of lack of self reflection and absolutely minimal pressure from the fans to change it.

It's genuinely a shame. Somebody on here pointed out about him and I can never unsee it. He has become a genuinely boring player. Like almost drained of confidence but I feel like it's a way he's been coached to play. 2019-2021 he was a flawed, but exciting player. Bloody hell he got an England cap. A Hungarian equivalent wouldn't be called up by them now.

It's absolutely criminal. For every criticism of the state of the squad, if I knew this was the idea for Ndidi (destroyer or nothing!!!!) and we'd do it at the expense of giving players like Alves a go in games like this then I'm out. What the **** is the point? I'd completely forgotten Alves was out of contract in a year. You're right. Very much a risk he goes for nothing on this evidence. If he can't get a proper go in a game like this what hope has he got for the real thing? Your only chance of keeping him beyond this year is a loan out where he can forget about us for a bit. I'm seriously unimpressed with just about every facet of this club. More red flags than at a Morocco game.

I'll never try and quash someone's optimism going into a new season as ultimately what good is football without a bit of it. But **** me Leicester will try their best to. Shit performances, squad is in a state.

His regression from a genuinely fun player to about the dullest nonentity on the pitch every time he plays is quite sad. It's beyond injuries.

I don't think we'll quite be as bad as them but very much Sheffield United vibes. Like an almost pointless promotion.

At least under Maresca you did see some sort of direction even if by the end he looked very one dimensional. This is basically none dimensional. Relying on a moment of magic. The squad's in a bad state (the subs will really hammer this home) but **** me it isn't good.

On what planet is that a free kick to them

I could about tolerate this if it was six weeks until the first game but it's two weeks away.

Ipswich are a problem as well. We've seen how much they can punch above their weight. I don't think they'll be anywhere near as bad as last years three. I think Southampton will drop. Forest aren't very good. Do think Brentford might be in the mix again. Very hard to not see us dropping. I think I'd back us to go down even without a deduction let alone with.

I'd be genuinely very surprised if we stayed up. Shite.

That is just sickening. Gutted.
