  1. Right, that's promotion not happening. Lovely jubbly.
  2. Noticed the other day how many good PL players have come up from the Championship - Watkins, Bowen, Toney, Grealish, Stones, Mbeumo, Eze, Olise, Maddison. That Alex Scott at Bournemouth looks really promising too. Who are the best players down there right now*? * except Jewde Bellend
  3. RW, CF, DM, CB, CB/LB where hopefully we're keeping track of the free transfer market (Tosin, Kelly, Hermoso etc) Sell for money: Almiron, Wilson, Fraser, Lewis, Hayden, Targett Release: Hendrick, Ritchie, Dummett, Gillespie Seems a bit too straightforward and I'm sure a couple of those sales will be a struggle.
  4. Neto or Raphinha would be the dream. Not sure how realistic the Arsenal links are, considering that's Saka's position.

    I do agree that from a tactical perspective, if Howe insists on a four-man defence it needs an attacking full-back (Trippier) plus a defensive one - something which Livramento is not. Injuries and the bizarre Hall situation mean there's nobody else. But, knowing this, why don't we try other ideas? Whether it's Trippier/Livramento as wing-backs that also allows some CM rotation, or even trying Botman as the LB/CB hybrid and bringing Lascelles in. I dunno. Something else that isn't the obvious weekly scenario where the opposition puts a fast winger on Burn and we get destroyed. If the whole fanbase has figured it out then top-class Premier League managers absolutely have. Nervous about what Saka will do, to put it lightly!
  6. Yeah. Even though it feels like they're writing off the last few months of a season where they could genuinely make the play-offs, I'm sure they'll get the summer appointment right. Annoyingly. Whether it's Will Still, Steve Cooper (shame that Palace looked elsewhere), Jesse Marsch etc, there'll be good names available.
  7. Not saying they should sack him, just that I hope they're not blindly loyal to him (like he is to Burn) and are at least open to other ideas.
  8. The goodwill has almost gone. Honestly, the guy is going off the rails with his decisions and loyalties. I know the injuries are a factor but only up to a point. I'd be very disappointed if the higher-ups aren't at looking keeping a pulse on the managerial market. Because I'm not sure we get far beyond the summer with Howe.
  9. Would adore the signing of Neto. And of the top clubs, Man Utd want Olise instead, Arsenal have Saka, Chelsea have Palmer. Main threat might be Liverpool if Salah leaves.
  10. Not been overly impressed with Ashworth's five minutes here, so let's take the money, make him wait + ultimately replace him with someone better. Easy peasy.
  11. Spurs, Villa, Wham, Fulham, Brentford and Burnley are guaranteed for GW29, with either Luton v Forest or Man Utd v Sheff Utd likely joining them.
  12. Tosin, absolutely Considering our financial position, we should be all over the better free transfers in order to bolster squad depth.

    Hopefully Howe's eyes have been opened, here.
