Stu Man Do

Apparently Man Utd are willing to let Henderson out on loan in January for 18 months. Would happily have him here but I imagine so would 15 other teams 😂

😂 didn’t the football hipsters trot out some stat about how he had the best goals to minutes ratio in the league or some such? Sadly he had few goals in not many minutes ! Biggest face palm signing ever!

When you think about it that’s actually an awful lot he needs to learn after being here nearly 3 years! His substitutions are poor and he rarely seems to change the style of play when we get under the cosh. If he weren’t such a nice guy he’d probably have been sacked already. The 4 year deal he signed will end up costing us 100 million if we go down on top of his pay off (still can’t get my head around paying a managers contract up when they fail to do the job well!)

Same old same old under Ralph. Good first half without really creating a lot. Second half bit clueless, other side get on top and very little changes seem to be made. I do worry that he is a bit of a 1 trick pony.

Think that’s the warm up shirt? Usually play in red and white at Everton don’t we?

Do you honestly think that’s a premier league standard CB partnership that won’t leave us scrabbling around at the bottom end? This squad and preparation aren’t looking great and probably are down on quality on an already low quality squad from last year.

Looks like Watford are out … https://www.lancashiretelegraph.co.uk/sport/19486480.premier-league-side-wont-pursue-interest-blackburn-rovers-striker/

Concerning that our striker search is limited by age rather than by ability. If Ings goes we will be up the creek next season. Sounds like Bertrand is off as well, think I’d rather keep him than give Theo a 2/3 year deal.

Slightly miffed by how Vesty seems to just stop once he’s had an attempt at a tackle. Never seems to be busting a gut to get back in position. overall not the worst result and hopefully paves the way for better ones in the next few weeks.

What about Blackburn or Man City? Reckon they’ve both been too and bottom at some point in the premier league years.

Aston Villa at 100/1 😂

Benrahama looks to be going to West Ham for north of 20 million. Not sure there is much value to be had in the championship anymore.

Are we seriously valued at 50-100 million less than Palace?! Mental.

Considering the sheer amount of time Mane was in possession someone was passing to him!

Sheffield United at home in the championship. Frozen ground, snowmen along the sides, bloody cold, awful game and we lost.

Ian Dowie vs Port Vale in the FA Cup somewhen in the 90s. Missed several sitters leading to us hearing Le Tissier shout “That’s f**king s**t!” As he missed another one late on.

Don’t be silly it was dealt with ... we won a throw in

Didn’t he also report that we’d be back in the summer for absolute definite for that Dutch guy Promes? Although i also remember that Adam Blackmore said the same.

Fair enough if you think we’d spend that with GAO in charge but I suppose we will see in the next month which one of us is right

Ollie Watkins from Brentford looks decent but probably out of our price range as they apparently want 25million!

I’d argue we need to ditch 5 at the back, win the midfield a bit more often and keep the ball further up the pitch. Can’t see any upturn in the Man City games regardless of what he does next week.

What sort of team are we expecting to play? Might take the midget

Has there ever been a case where dodgey agent shenanigans has led to a points penalty? Not sure I can see the premier league doing it

Awks ... he’s clearly on about Puel at Leicester.
