Saint Garrett

Need to get a positive result, even if its just for some confidence... I'd be tempted to give Salisu a start, if he's fit enough, Bednarek is having a bit of a mare atm, and Stephens is just an awful defender. Though might have to play him at RB if KEP isn't back. Is Armstrong back? Forster; KWP/Stephens Vestergaard Salisu Bertrand; JWP Romeu; Armstrong Ings Adams Djenepo

Sorry - I mean eventually inevitable, but not sure it will be this summer.

Think he'd get decent game time at City assuming they don't sign Haaland this summer, which I think is inevitable. Money isn't there like it was a few years ago, he's English, cheap, and they currently only have Jesus and Aguero, who is rarely fit....think he'd also be a great fit for how they play...one to watch I think.

Yup. And that wouldn’t be so bad. Remove him from CB where he’s been poor this season, and have a bit more experience at RB than Ramsay. Will help us massively having Romeu back too, as it should mean we’re playing much further up the pitch and have more of the ball, leaving Stephens less susceptible to 1v1s. Slowly starting to get a bit of confidence back with these players returning. I just hope it’s not too soon.

Don’t see us bouncing back here. So weak at the back / midfield. 3-0 Newcastle

Question for you... Would you rather have beaten Liverpool 1-0 and lost 9-0 to Man Utd, or lost both 1-0?

Think we’re passed that stage now? Normally I’d be hoping he is banned but with no one else he’ll have to play. No chance we’re getting a result there this weekend

No chance. We’re fucked

No he shouldn’t. We’re 3 points better off than if we’d have lost to Liverpool and Man Utd 1-0

Fingers crossed we have some players back for this, or I worry about Saturday. The kids are nowhere near good enough. Gut feeling is they have to rescind that Red card. Was a dive. Mccarthy; KWP Vestergaard Bednarek Bertrand; JWP Romeu; Armstrong Ings Adams Redmond What’s the chances they’ll be back?!

Always have a look at opps forums...they're not very confident...which surprises me given how depleted we are. I'm not sure they've realised we're missing KWP, Vestergaard, Diallo Romeu Walcott who would all probably play if fit... Gut feeling is that we'll have a go, but quality will tell and our defence will be a bit all over the place, especially with no Romeu / Diallo protecting the defence. https://www.redcafe.net/matches/manchester-united-vs-southampton.378/

Rashford will get a hat trick because I've removed him from my fantasy team.

Athletic reporting it could be “up to £500k”

Who said we’ve paid a couple of million to loan Minamino? Can’t see it personally. They only paid 6-7m for him didn’t they?!

We do. We have Diallo JWP Stephens Salisu and Ferry who can all do a job at full back. Depends on injuries. Valery and Vokins are no better than those at full back right now.

Yes.

He’s not reliable at all.

Think it’s dependant on who isn’t injured. Probably will be Prowsey if we have a CM, maybe Armstrong drops in there. Or maybe Moussa will play RB. Whatever the decision, it’s damaged limitations with this many players out.

Think he’ll do a good job there in midfield. I think he is ok, just not as a RB.

I mean he is shit. He needs games. And he’s a long way down the pecking order. Depending on the situation with KWP, Salisu, Vestergaard, Diallo and Romeu, it would make sense to loan him out to get games. I worry he’d struggle to get in the Birmingham team though.

Well if Walcott is out for 2 months, there’s one less competition. He can play all across the front 4 positions too.

Excited by this one. Hopefully includes an option to buy.

Yea, on a free and reasonable wages, 2 year deal. Can’t have a squad of all 18-24 year old, need a couple of older heads in there.

Guessing we can hand in a deal sheet and give us til tomorrow to sort or whatever the rules are

Worst owner in the league, was before Covid.
