He wasn't that categoric a mere 12 hours ago... Hedging his bets perhaps...?

Who?

{MLG Mode} "pretty much" means 'very nearly', so he's leaving the door open for Fernandes staying. So, no, it's not a conclusive statement... {Exit MLG Mode} #itsonlybanter

Yeah, quite a few people on here stuck up for previous poor managers...

Can we re-sign Shane Long and Josh Sims for this one?

FFS

Grimsby at home please

Man Utd out on pens 🤣🤣

Good enough to be a 3rd choice keeper at Championship level...?

Yep... Would like to see him and Archer given a run in the side to see if they can forge a partnership together.

Harsh...🫢

Sacked before the Old Firm derby? (Which would be a shame as was looking forward to that 😁)

Good to hear 👍🏻

A thread that probably accounts for around 70% of my 56k posts... 😂

This signing reminds me of the days where we were buying 'best of breed' players in the lower leagues... The liked of Fonte, Lambert and Hammond. Exactly how it should be when we've got more financial muscle than most teams in the league 👍🏻

Good shout. I got Lallana vibes when watching the video above but Tadic fits as a comparison too

It sounds like his forte is putting the ball on a plate for strikers.... so I guess we'll soon discover if our strikers' profligatory has been down to poor service or their lack of clinicality....

A good watch / listen

Yep... he's a 9/10 signing for me (gut feel)

Seems a bit of a mixed bag... no extreme views one way or t'other but definitely more leaning towards the 'disappointed' end of the scale.

If he doesn't "hate Pompey" then I ain't interested mush

The first name that entered my head whilst watching that was "Lallana"....

Don't we need to separate 'loan + obligation to buy' scenarios and straight-forward loans without any committment? I can't think why we'd want / need to avoid the latter?
