Doctor Zaius

Wonder if he'd fancy it. Having been at Bournemouth and then signed under Ashley, he's probably not made all that much money for an England international.

Fabinho and Casemiro have have both won leagues and CL's. Both with a way bigger reputation than Wilson. Which is essentially what matters most - their footballing abilities come second. The fee they paid for ASM, you could easily see another club paying. Nobody else is paying £20m for Wilson. They might pay it like, maybe having a recent England international is a coup worth the 20m. I don't actually think they will though and if they do, it's still mental.

20m for Wilson is mental like. 11 starts in all comps this season. 33 soon. Guess the Saudi league might get two years out of him.

What does 7th get?

He wouldn't give up the money he's owed on his contract. Has another few years.

Last 3 games we've won, we've played with 3 different formations and game plans. 5 at the back V Spurs, usual 433 at home v Sheff Utd and 442 today. Nailed it each time. Brilliant coach like, unreal how he can implement ideas so quickly.

Thought Hall, Burn and Murphy were really good today. Burns tackle in particular at 0-0 was massive. Once we went 1-0 up Longstaff and Bruno were in control. Actually think Krafth is a better centre half than full back. Though Livramento was a bit off it today, not as solid defensively and a lack of cutting edge going forward. Hey ho. Burnley are shite, and 4-4-2 was the right choice today by Howe, as they couldn't cope with us in the final third. Don't want to see us playing it against a better team though, Longstaff and Bruno don't have the legs for a two.

Class today

We've been class in the final third like

Burnley goal coming here

Two in midfield isn't working.

Fitting end to the season tbh

Following on from the manager 5 a side team yesterday, whats the best XI of footballers in their prime, ever to play for us at some point? Given Trippier Campbell Woodgate Pearce Beardsley Gascoigne Keegan Waddle Rush Shearer Quite attacking heavy. A couple in there who were possibly the best in the world at a point in time.

Did enjoy Stokes time in the PL with their unique style of hoofball

Nowhere to play in the mean time is the issue. Murrayfield possibly the closest, feasible option but that would be a nightmare.
