Think with Valery it was more than he was useless at RB so tried him in a different place, and I think he's not been bad at all when he's played right of a back 3 this season. He is however a very limited player. Djenepo has just been pretty terrible and never got any better. He was the wrong signing at the time.

McNeil is an old fashioned out and out winger. We don't play with wingers, and he'd cost a bomb, I can't see that one happening unless we sign a new manager and change system, which looks very unlikely.

Maybe we can buy them on the cheap, and loan them to Levski.

But he did exactly that, when we beat Arsenal. Unfortunately, we then tried to play the same way against Burnley and they just bullied us, so Ralph reverted to what he "knew". I don't disgree with your overall point, that we have long runs of terrible form, but I do believe the players deserve a lot of the blame for that. They're so mentally fragile, heads go down, and we stop playing as a team and believing in the system.

I’d take both.

How do you know that?

Not sure how many, but they definitely out some of our allocation on sale to home fans. I'd guess about 2,000.

So we let in 67 goals this season, without a 9-0. Take the "freak" 9-0 out and take the other 37 games last season, we conceded an avg of 1.6 goals per game After the first 11 games, we'd conceded a total of 12 goals, or an average of 1.09 per game. In the following 27 games, we've conceded a total of 55, or an average of 2.04 goals per game. You're never going to stand a chance of getting results if you're letting that many goals in. Not quite sure what changed really, after those first set of games. I'd say we've been worse this season defensively than last season, apart from that early run of games.

I miss Eric Black

We can see it…

A 1 year loan to Celtic or championship team, or get rid for £10m Hes dogshit, and completely lost in this league at the moment

Different players but. Best talent / most potential / ones I give a fuck about / want to be here…. 1. Salisu 2. Lyanco 3. Stephens 4. Bednarek We need a new number 1 centre back, a Jonny Evans type. Solid as fuck, to tech this lot that you need to defend as well as concede.

Villa

I hope McCarthy spends next season at Celtic,

Well, he’s not injured.

He's awful, mixed with a combination of losing his place in the team and never really regaining it. He's the most wasteful striker I've ever seen. Doesn't read the game very well, isn't a threat in the box which is why when he plays he's never in it. He's nowhere near good enough to play in this league and probably won't ever be. Wouldn't surprise me if we try and shift him this summer, and we should IMO.

Moron central there tonight. Full of little chavvy kids.

Having been there id question that, but still a decent crowd, I wonder if that was tickets sold rather than people through the gate tonight

Kovac going to Wolfsburg. So rule him out. If he was ever in

Not sure we could deal with losing him from the midfield for half the season though. nor would I want to rely on Valery for 6 months. I'd like to think that Small and Valery might be able to step in, but probably depends on how bad Perraud's injury is.

Difficult to give it much credit when they claim Redmond played up front against Liverpool….! But there is no doubt we’re keen on both. I wonder whether we might look to sign Bazanu as well as Dragowski.

West Ham when they sell Rice?

Yeah had Dibling and Ballard on the list, along with Edwards. Cheers

Yeah - I'm going to head down, be nice to go to St Marys and watch a team with some confidence... Excited to see our lot play, as you'd think a bunch of them are likely to play for the first team at some point. Also, from an England perspective, I'm fully expecting City kids to be at a very high level. Any specific players we should be looking out for?

Disgraceful. An ex player for them too. Hope he gets locked up, absolute scumbag,
