  1. Bednarek for 9m?! Who to? Oh god, it’s us isn’t it…
  2. He has very soft hands. @The_77 will confirm
  3. is worth a read. Didn’t hold back on board (good) and I think it does paint a picture of a really fractured dressing room where player power was taking us down a bad path too with resistance to some of the training, not just physically having to be local to the club Link in case people don’t have telegraph access. https://archive.ph/pzSuo
  4. The plan B all the Luddites have been crying out for when they demand for the team to “put it in the mixer!!!!!!”

    I think it depends on who our manager is and how they play to be honest. I’d love to see him succeed but I just wonder if his confidence is shot with us now. Be interesting to see if he starts on Sunday
  6. Rob Tanner?
  7. I’m not sure Southampton were that hopeful to be honest. They had their team somewhat decimated, had a load of young unproven players and were just down in the dumps. I think Leeds were way more fancied than them that season. I’m no Martin fan, in fact totally agree with you on Rohl and what he did but just don’t want to overstate how much Saints were seen as super strong, just because they came down with us
  8. Depends how much you like darts I suppose. I bet Madders would have finished on 501…
  9. Fairly decent performance. Liverpool could have had tons though but we defended so much better. bit disappointed we didn’t really attack TAA when he came on (everything seems to go down right once buona came on) as he has been their defensive frailty and was on a yellow too after the goal, and Stephy had a really good game as well and did well against Bradley. last few after we were down a goal though was annoying. No real urgency to even just say eff it and go for it and give the crowd something to get behind. well we are down. It’s deserved. Just see what happens now and hope we are more focused on proper prep for next season. This one is / was moribund
  10. Here you (and others) go https://archive.ph/orDxA
  11. The old Faes jump out the way move
  12. Can’t wait to sing some pearl jam when he comes on against Chelsea Jeremy Monga, made his debut todayyyyyyy
  13. Way more likely to play as a youth for Man City than with us! Embarrassing that we have this relative wealth of riches and are doing so poorly but they still don’t get a look in. Hearing Ruud going on so much about Monga and other youth training and being on the bench is like teenage me hearing about Halle Berry in Swordfish. A lot of build up for not much…
  14. Isn’t part of the reason we got Seagrave because it was to boost our attractiveness as an academy to get top talent to then…. I forget the rest…
  15. Totally agree. Nearly every point we got under Cooper felt like a robbery. Last min equalisers or winners, Mads consistently having worldies. Massively over achieved points vs expected points. But not in a way that was sustainable I think it stings more that we had such a great start under Ruud with the West Ham game and Brighton games and then the wheels came off spectacularly against Newcastle. Let’s not talk about that Wolves game ever again. Liverpool and Man City gave us false hope, Villa we should have got more. QPR again was perhaps.. especially with the run of beatable opposition that followed. Pathetic against Palace (maybe I am being harsh but that was winnable!) and Fulham, with that Spurs match again false optimism. Everton game? 🤮 Sorry for walk down memory lane. TLDR? Ruud > Cooper
  16. Is this based on like for like opponents?
  17. I wouldn’t come to Leicester and I support the bloody club!
  18. Just a thought… as a lot of people saying we should “snap their hand off” It’s a loan with obligation to buy. Maybe they wanted to pay us in Jul and new financial year so we said no. Loan doesn’t help that much, doubt he’s on mega wages.
  19. This time next year we’ll be Wimmillionaires…
  20. NBC were all about Spurs and we didn’t get a mention. You’d think based on the coverage here that Spurs lost a fight with themselves in phone box
  21. Mate, I think you are getting a little too wrapped up in taking the article literally. It didn’t say Facundo was the only one on the end of it. If it came from the players then they’ll want to spread the narrative he picked on a single player but I don’t imagine for a second he did. These leaks have been going on a while so it makes me think it’s a tenured player. I’m not saying it is him (I’m not saying it’s not) but Vardy or whoever is hardly gonna say “oh he picked on me for missing sitters”. As many have said, this whole team as been poor for ages and the problems we have created for ourselves are not due to coaching problems but individual mistakes. It’s a fact Facundo has been directly responsible for us conceding and if he’s been instructed explicitly to not fart about on the edge of our box or play Hollywood stuff then good on the manager (any manager) to rollock him or any other player that doesn’t stick to the plan). RVN clearly made a tactical adjustment last couple of matches (while we were level and not chasing) to keep JJ more at home and stay compact, and then we concede by letting teams waltz through the middle untracked. I’d be fuming at that. Bottom line, I don’t think he bullied one player but I do think he lost his nut at them
