A massive own goal if we go down the own brand inhouse route. Especially with the younger fan base its all about names and labels, times have changed since we have gone here before and society is driven by having the latest technology, fashion, big names and brands.
To be fair you don't need to look far for someone to be telling you Kane and Haaland aren't very good as all they do is score goals (40/50 a season but they don't do anything else). If it wasn't for the Asia cup mid season there is a good chance he goes past Rauls best season in the prem for us.
If they stuck all 22,000 up £100 it would make them £2m (a place in the league table). In the grand scheme of things and the numbers brought in elsewhere it will mean very little to the club, but has the potential to make or break whether its financially viable for a fan to continue in the...
Quality footballer, but he's a creator. His form tailed off with nobody to actually create for. With Hwang, Cunha and Neto running around off him he looked a different player, now he just looks absolutely knackered.
grimmest 45 mins of the season, the squad is either half fit or absolutely knackered. If it wasn't for Sa they'd have been 4 or 5 up and out of sight by half time. Between that and VAR I'm over this season, lets see what they hit us with on the season tickets because it wont take much to pack...
The transparency in Rugby helps, you can openly hear the conversation between the referee and video match official. You may not agree with the decision but you know how it was reached, they communicate throughout the game and its worked perfectly fine for a number of years. VAR seems to have...
Its nice to have a young manager that has a reputation, where he's being linked with other roles. Rather than us wanting him to get another job. Same with the playing group, it means we are actually doing something right. I don't see him going anywhere just yet, hadn't done a full season at...
I think Pep will be all over him this summer, seems the ideal left back for them. Walker tucking in to make it a three at the back and RAN having free reign to create chaos with very little defensive responsibility. He has excellent feet, he can beat a man, links up well and defensively sound.
Of all our players its RAN I don't see here next season, he's had a real break out season and there is too much noise around interest in him. I think Neto's injuries potentially put off his suiters for the fee we'd want and they will want to see him stay fit, though feel we'll get bids but will...
I don't think its corruption, if you look across the league every team has suffered at the hands of these morons to some degree. With so many decisions being subjective (this being the whole issue with VAR) its easy to have an unconscious bias towards the big clubs in these moments when the...
Always disappointed to lose whoever we play, I think the performance with the players missing and the ones not fully fit shows we have a good base to build from in the summer. We spent last summer getting our house in order, we have a manger who wants to be in position and are making the right...
Some of the great FA cup memories are of them replays under the lights. Typical elitist decision, just another nail in the coffin of the pyramid. 700+ teams enter the competition, yet a small minority were allowed to make the decision without consultation. The same super rich teams that pushed...
Not too concerned by paper talk, just means we have a good crop of players attracting interest. Fortunately for us we got our house in order last summer and said players are all tied down to lengthy deals, would be more of a worry if we had no players attracting interest. Id imagine we'll see...
I'd say its more he's earned the right to be less careful. The beginning of the season he'd been sacked by Bournemouth, our fan base weren't keen and he was seen as a cheap and easy appointment. Fast forward 7 or 8 months he's had us in a European scrap and his star is on the rise and other...
VAR isn't the issue as the technology does exactly what is it asked to do. The way its used and the morons using it are the issue, they are trying to micro manage and make every decision black and white when it isn't. In black and white Saturday was technically offside, in reality everyone knows...
That's the spirit, lets pack up and go home.
Saturday was a shocker, miles below the standards we have been setting (shocking timing). I don't see this group of players doing anything other than digging deeper and fighting harder after the disappointment of the weekend.
People have written them...
I think a lot of the hype on here and the excited posts come more from him being a local academy kid and people viewing him through gold tinted specs. If we'd signed him from Lisbon or Milan he'd be written off, I haven't seen anything in him that's overly special or exciting about, half the...
Frustrating but if done right can be to the benefit of the club. There are very few clubs that aren't selling clubs, every player has a price and even the big 6 here have struggled over the years when Madrid/Barcelona have come knocking. As long as you are signing talents with attitudes like...
