I wouldn't be surprised if it was Rasmus himself. Seriously wouldn't put it past the bloke.

What a fucking mental thing to come out with. Your opinion, and therefore it's valid - but Jesus.

United's first goal was a brilliant save at full stretch, and the second time he palmed it out into a semi-dangerous area it was his touch which stopped three United players tapping it in. Bazunu had a tame effort straight at him and chose to palm it straight to a Palace attacker out of all the available options.

What did you make of Bazunu's efforts for the goal?

I think Onuachu will have some kind of resale value at least. He has shown he can score lots of goals on the continent. Meanwhile, Sulemana has shown he can... Run fast?

In a season of crazily bad signings, this guy may just be the worst in terms of value. Players like him are ten a penny in this league and yet SR saw fit to spunk 22m on someone with three career goals. It's just staggering how bad Rasmus has been at his job.

He is a shower of shite and anyone still claiming otherwise has completely fucking lost it. End of.

Hopefully that's ABK out for a very long time indeed. Now we just need the same to happen to the other 10.

See you all in August x

I don't think Howe will have had much of a say in their recent signings tbf, and his spending at Bompey was atrocious in the main

Depends if they want a bouncing, full stadium for the first few games - or 22k. I'm not getting a ST without a good faith gesture from the club. Had enough of paying through the nose for shite.

I'm perhaps speaking for a slightly younger generation but me and a lot of mates are bang into watching England. This squad, manager and the togetherness are certainly a marked improvement on anything we saw in the 2000's.

Gibbs-White is probably the closest comparison to make but Burnley aren't likely to splash anywhere near the cash that Forest did. I think it will all come down to whether Tella wants to follow Burnley up that badly, and whether we think he can actually make it in the Prem if/when we return.

How many of those clubs actually get that? Said Benrahma and Danjuma both left the Championship for about £20m - I think it's about right.

£20m would be fair enough, I think. It's peanuts, really.

I'm in the same boat 😅 Realistically, I don't think anything but three points is good enough. It's going to be nervy.

Didn't put a foot wrong today and we get our rewards. Well done.

You can use the original ticket IIRC

That's how football works Grandad, surely you know that - do you think Brighton or Brentford fans are complaining about how much they hate football?

I mean Leicester won the FA Cup only a few years ago... it's possible. We're just in a downward trajectory at the moment.

If you can't see that as true, then you need a thorough mental examination

It's not his fault but he has to be dropped. McCarthy is better, no question. There's not a gulf between them, but McCarthy is better. Bazunu should have never been dropped into this situation in the first place. As you mention, there's a reason why keeper don't tend to make the grade at a senior level until around 24. He could come good, but at the moment his glimpses of potential seem fleeting at best. We need someone who can be relied upon week on week, and Bazunu isn't that. Yet.

Not in the UK at least

One thing Selles has got to get a handle on (and fast) is the sub situation. He should've got Alcaraz off at HT as subbing him early in the second half left us with only 2 substitution windows. He also seems married to changing the strike force completely on 60 minutes of every game, which left the whole attack needing to get up to speed in a crucial part of the game against Leicester and Leeds.

It does look cool when you get it right though
