Well, not long till we find out at least

Maybe just saying hello to old friends at Burnley? Wouldn't get too excited just yet.

Thought so. I focus on the posts, I'm not too interested in the posters.

How so?

I really don't think it's farfetched at all mate, it was well earned.

100%. @TRC was just commenting on some podcast implying today's referee somehow had it in for Bruno because he's booked him a lot*. Some referees have it in for players (Uriah Rennie vs. Shearer) but if anything, Bruno seems to get the rub of the green for most of his time with us. *Turns out that wasn't even true.

It's pretty obvious we should be winning this game if we are what we want to be. But I've largely given up trying to predict results now for this season. We're the definition of inconsistent. Only thing I'm pretty confident of is that we won't look like a great, well oiled team.

Basically up until he was on the verge of a two match suspension. I can't think of many unlucky yellows he's got, but I can think of a few times he was lucky not to get a red.

This is bang on. It makes our ability to assess any signing here very limited. The role of sports/football/technical director is too varied and under-defined to say with high confidence that someone will perform well, or badly, at two different clubs.

Big boost if so. Worried about him having a slow start next season and us all arguing whether it should be blamed on the disrupted pre season. Would let him feel properly a part of things if he can play.

Maybe Southampton weren't well defended contractually? I got the impression from the media they were caught with their pants down.

As @The College Dropout said, instinctively I wonder if Eddie is telling the truth about this. To try and dissuade Man United from rehearsing dealing with his distribution. Hopefully, anyway...

This is going to sound really churlish but if he was coming back, I would hope there's more to it than him just being homesick. He's got a massive opportunity at his feet at a huge, well resourced club that apparently thinks extremely highly of him. Throwing that away wouldn't say amazing things about his mentality. As I say, that's a very big "if" it was just about homesickness.
