The doom and gloomers on here will say Twitter assumptions

I like to think I'm no doom and gloomer but I'm sure you don't need me to tell you that Twitter is that last place to go to for believable ITK news.

Depends on the source

How many times have we even gone in at half time this season having scored a goal?! Twice? Three times? in 18 games. I don’t expect anything different tonight and I don’t think the players will “throw him under the bus” or anything like that.

We have thought he has lost the dressing room in the past then they came out all guns blazing getting stuck in against Liverpool for example. I reckon it will be same old and a narrow battling defeat 1 or 2 nil.

God forbid we might even take a lead for once before they come back to beat us.

He's lost his head completely but he'll be allowed to keep going a for a long while yet. I'm not actually sure even getting us relegated would get him sacked.

This, Ashley will see him as a good championship manager. The only hope is if Ashley does stand to lose millions if the takeover depends on us staying in this league

Surely with all that’s went on in past few years , they can’t let Mahomes play next week? He was seeing stars.

I'm sure concussion usually means still playing next week and he doesn't really have a history with head injuries.

For his own safety, he shouldn’t. But like you say, he more then likely will.

Not necessarily. Not sure how it works during the week in their facility. But isn’t it an independent assessor on game day? Got to pass them first and he looked like a baby giraffe getting up. Not sure on the stats. But it seems plenty of players miss the next game with concussion. You have to be cleared to play. So it’s not like he’s going to be allowed to just risk playing through.

He’s going to be banged up and not close to 100%, either way.

I don't know if anyone has read "The Poppy War" by R.F. Kuang? I would really recommend it. It's incredibly brutal but very well written. I think the remaining two parts of the trilogy are out now but I need a bit of a break after the first book, it was pretty harrowing at points. The story is based on a fantasy version of China and the events that took play during the Japanese invasion of Manchuria (so you know it's going to be sunshine and happiness).

So were the Pats more Brady than Belichick?
