The point is not who exactly will replace Ralph, it is more that the club is always ready with an ideal successor. Semmens actually said in the interview they won't be able to get the guy who they had lined up anymore, so we won't be able to guess our next manager from his comments. One question missing from the interview imo is how do we compete with clubs like Brighton, Brentford, and maybe Wolves, who all seem well run and I would imagine make the same pitch as us while signing players. Going back to Koeman era you could say we were the only Premier League club happy to sell but I don't think that's true anymore.

sportsmania code also not working for me. Frustrating as last season I had a sub with them all season, but wasn't able to renew it at the start of this season. Best alternative to sportsmania?

Normal sportsmania subscriptions not available, anyone let me know which sites are working? I am willing to get a VPN too

I can accept the clubs policy, but only if they stick to it. Replacements before or just after a sale. Needs to be this window, otherwise they are giving up on the rest of this season.

Gardos had a good game (coming on as a sub possibly to replace an injury) away at utd as I recall

I would consider resting Bertrand for HBS

Need a win or 0 0 in last game. Just want to see a goal

If inter win as they are 2 0 up, then a draw doesn't do much for us, only a win puts us in a significantly stronger position. Much more offensive in 2nd half please

Romeu has been so good recently but hopefully we will be ok without him

From the Official Site, although Bertrand could be back for Chelsea (late assessment) we are still without Cédric, Matt Targett, Shane Long, Jay Rodriguez, Jake Hesketh and Alex McCarthy

Next change has to be Højbjerg. Hope Hesketh's confidence is ok, half full St. Mary's to the middle east desert is quite a step up.

There is more FFP if anything, you can only make a certain loss each season, but in the PL you cannot use the new TV money to increase wages more than £7M or so a season. To go over the £7M limit you can only use commercial and profit from selling players. Hence why we cannot compete on wages and keep all our best players. We can use the new TV income on transfer fees no problem, but our main constraint is wages I would guess.

Agreed. We look good, Zlatan scored against us but it's Zlatan...
