  1. It's a tune that's been used for chants loads of times by loads of different teams about loads of different players. The fact that his name fitted in well with the song and somebody picked up on it and started it has nothing to do with race. Don't remember anyone at the time making it an issue? Don't remember wanyama ever coming out saying he was offended. It was a fucking football chant bigging up a player that was highly regarded. Not racist in the slightest
  2. The tune that the song is from is not relevant at all. How is a tune racist? If it referenced wanyama and a jungle in the words then a different matter. In fact, it's more racist saying that chant was racist because I'd never even thought about where the tune came from it was just a chant about our player at the time. You're actually highlighting a link between jungle and African that wasn't even there
  3. What was racist about being a mighty Kenyan? He was from Kenya and he was mighty
  4. I mean most people can see it's a black and white situation. It's a clear penalty but the big team gets a free kick and it's not even looked at. If that's the other way round Liverpool get a pen 10 times out of 10. It happens every single week in this league
  5. It's corrupt as fuck. How was that a free kick to Liverpool. Armstrong fouled by keeper and defender and not even looked at by var. Fucking joke
  6. We should have brought on tp immediately after getting that goal early second half. Give them something different to think about but instead back to the same old shit. Would have been better getting hammered by 5 or 6 and giving owners no choice but to sack Martin. He's fucking useless
  7. And if we had somebody playing central up front in the Newcastle game we may have done even better and not lost. But to line up at home against a team that's going to be in and around the bottom and play that way not acceptable. And to score 5 midweek, appreciating it's cardiffs reserves and Russ to say we played too safe at times is laughable. Can't remember the last time the entire midfield were looking to attack instead of the easy ball
  8. Maybe, but even if that's the case, aribo, smallbone or downes as a false 9 is just as ridiculous. Downes has his role and he does it well. Smallbone did ok last year but he is nowhere near good enough to start in prem. If tomorrow's out field line up is same as last week there is no point even turning up, ramsdale or not
  9. There's having balls to try something and there's just stupidity. I bet forest defenders last week had the easiest game of their careers at any level they've ever played. It was ridiculous how we were set up. I know it was Cardiff and not even their first side midweek but the youngsters played with intent to create something and then heard Russ saying he wasn't happy because we played too safe at times😂 I'm not a hater of Russell Martin (yet) but if he keeps playing smallbone and aribo and leaving dibling out it will soon change. Archer showed he's a good finisher but without anyone feeding him and playing through balls he will be useless
  10. Weird thing to say. We set up with 3 at the back and wing backs. Never in my life have I seen wing backs with the 2 forwards also playing wide. It was a ridiculous tactic which resulted in what it should have. Fuck all chance of scoring a goal. It wasn't 5-3-2 it was 5-5-0 or maybe 5-1-4. Either way it was bizarre and there's a reason no manager has ever set a team up like that
  11. That's a lie because I was there when he was conceived naturally. His dad wearing just a pair of socks round his ankles beautifully delivered the assist straight up the middle and I knew from that moment a special talent was going to be born
  12. He should have been a regular last season. Not sure about the tiss comparisons because he will never be surpassed but be happy with a happy medium not at Matt's level but above grealish eventually. He's a class player already

    Stu Armstrong

    I think he's the best youngster since Shaw. But Shaw got games. He should have got plenty of minutes last season. I think he's going to be a class player

    Stu Armstrong

    We have the perfect replacement and upgrade for stu already in our squad. Dibling
  15. Ah ok. I didn't see the first game. I took my 9 year old daughter to the replay as her first ever game, mainly because it was cheap and expected her to want to leave but she loved it and and even she made comments about how good he was. Meghoma as well was brilliant that game. We have some decent youngsters if we don't play them then we lose our reputation as giving a pathway to players like these. Amo-ameyaw is another I'd hate to lose. Was in and about team last year at the start and had one bad game which he started and that was it. How can youngsters perform knowing that one bad game could be the last?
  16. Really? The cup game at home? I thought he was brilliant. Never looked like losing the ball, ran at players and for a player without stand out pace just glided past people
  17. We should be all over ramsdale. Don't know if he would come but if we can get him on loan then pay his wages, be worth every penny. 20 odd million on o'riley and a striker who can finish ( hard one I know but other clubs find them) and that's all we can ask for. Most promoted teams that do well keep main parts of the squad because you're on an up. Mood is better,everyone positive, just needs a couple of touches in key positions and we will be ok. Dibling looks class. Don't know why he didn't get a look in last season because the couple of cup games he played he stood out. Think he could be a suprise this season. He's got everything
  18. What's worrying me is playing half decent and should be ahead. Reminds me of a lot of times we should have won and been knocked out. Weirdly would would feel more confident being gash and go through undeservingly
  19. How is it not? Defender misses ball completely and takes out kane. Pen all day and night long
  20. I really hope to fuck we don't spunk this tournament. Southgate needs to fuck off now. It's horrible watching this shit
  21. This tournament has been dire. England getting shit and rightly so but it has been the same boring shite from nearly every team barring Spain. Credit to Austria and Georgia as well but on the whole a horrible tournament so far and the least interested I've ever been. Roll on the new league season
  22. We will probably scrape past Switzerland then beat a bang average Holland on pens and get smashed by Spain in the final. Southgate will be lauded by the media as usual for getting to another final and and anyone that questions him wil be told about his record of semi finals/ finals even though anybody could blindly pick 11 players from this squad and have no tactics or team talk and perform better. He's had the luckiest path to the latter stages in every tournament he's been in charge and done fuck all with it
  23. Yeah fair play I get that. But he deserves to be well known. This tournament will do that I guess but he's way above what we are looking at. We need to hope to get someone like him when Napoli signed him for peanuts
  24. 🤣 He's been one of the best players in serie a for the last 2/3 years. Probably an 80m player before the euros so you can add on another 20/30% now. Of course you would have him in saints squad but it's the equivalent of saying you'd have Phil foden in a heartbeat
  25. Those squads undoubtedly better on paper but too many big names that couldn't be left out meant square pegs in round holes. That, and the other big nations being really strong meant it was so much harder to win a major tournament. In recent times, we have had 2 semi finals and a final with a fraud of a manager because we have had a very strong squad and everyone else being at their weakest ever. We went 1-0 up at wembley against a shite Italy and sat back for 88 minutes when they were there for the taking. Anyone that defends Southgate because of recent placings are missing the point. We got that far despite him. If we had even a half competent manager we would have won at least 1 of the last 3 tournaments. I'd cry if saints appointed him he is utter gash
