Nolan

Its a bit late for him to detour from his Burnley medical, now.

Hojbjerg is first choice. Cedric wasn't first choice Gabbi wasn't first choice Hoedt wasn't first choice Davis wasn't first choice. Austin isn't first choice.

Rumours sound that Cedric had fallen out with the rest of the team. When he wasn't playing, he was blanked by the rest of the team outside the matchday squad when they were in the players ' box on matchdays.

In the replay against Derby we started with a back 3 and only reverted to a back 4 after Tyreke Johnsons first half yellow meant he had to be replaced by Tedmond at half time.

Hes currently 21. Would only count in a 25 man squad next year.

He was injured over Christmas, but let's not stop the facts getting in the way. Hes been on the team sheet 22 times this season.

Absolutely zero to do with the fact that Poch and Gazaniga are from the same town and that Poch knew Gazaniga's family...

Lookman had 5 goals and 4 assists In 11 games under Hasenhuttl at RB Leipzig.... no wonder he likes him. But it would probably be one hell of an outlay for a Home grown player at this time of year.

what's the money on Puel saying "told you he could be Southamptons Thierry Henry" about Redmond's current form?

Not really comparable to the current EU. Don't see any stories of USEAN trying to impose and Collect taxes from member countries. https://www.irishtimes.com/business/economy/eu-commission-pushes-ahead-with-plan-to-end-unanimity-on-tax-1.3746080?mode=amp

He said the same thing in multiple ways over the last 18 months. There will be no hard border.

The hard border that Leo Varadker has said that Ireland will never ever put up. How on earth could we possibly avoid something that someone has said they will never erect? It's quite a conundrum.

The better bit comes from being out side the EU not beholden to their ludicrous rules. Other than that we negotiate for mutually beneficial deals on a case by case nature. If its not mutually beneficial, you don't bother with the deals.

The way to have left would have been to competely disconnect and negotiate back into things both parties wanted us involved in. By trying to faff around with the wires still connected is how There's May has let Olly Robbins get us into this mess. And still it is those who still want to remain under any circumstances use the strongest language they can. Its obviously because their arguments, on normal terms using standard language, would be competely ineffectual.

No. There is leaving and there is mucking about doing everything they can to not leave.

"crash" You've even gone for the dodgy terminology. Constructed because "leaving" didn't sound bad enough. We simply leave and start trading on different terms.

You vote to remain in a Union that wants to bring in Article 13. Its that kind of protectionist rubbish, proposed by an unelected commission, that will make your children worse off.

Just saw how Omar Elabdellaoui did when he was on loan at Hull for the second half of the 2016/17 season. Silva dropped him after 7 games and he wasn't in the squad again until the last match of the season. That being said. He has been ever present in Olympiakos' season and has played in the RW position too. So he may be able to be utilised easily as a rwb.

As long as hes not just coming in to support Elyanoussi as we did when we got Chala to keep Delgado company...

Romeu on 4 yellows. Hojbjerg suspended for three. Time to exercise the recall in Reeds loan?

What was your pre match prediction Saint Larf?

Its a school of pochetino / cortese formation surely? 4 2 3 1 Hojbjerg and Romeu as DMs. Lemina, mo and JWP in front of them with Charlie up front.

Echo reported on 15th December that he "should be back in just under a fortnite". So we should see training pics imminently.

Splitting hairs, but we're playing with wing backs. They're positional meant to be nearer the mids.
