You normally see a greater sense of elation and sudden relaxation in such situations.

Where did Micah Richards get his hat?

That's what I'm talking about. The faster the run, the more the fun.

I'd have him back, but only if he is sporting a classic 1970s comb-over.

He's mustard.

Not seen any rumours about him being offered a new contract. Surely we will be?

Agreed. Only 8.5/10. 🤣

Based on his time with us before I think he'd excel in RussBall. His movement, touch, speed of thought and finishing would see to that. BUT.....how much of that does he retain now?

#southgateball ?

Where's the Russian Linesman when you need him?

Signing average prem players, for free, in our first season back is a pretty decent approach. I'd be VERY happy with us being an average prem team this season!

Lyanco?

Or head. Wolves game, relegation season. #shudder

Were there not many goals scored in the PL last season?!

Hopefully we bring in a 'starting' number 9. I assume we will. I'm not a fan of Che - his finishing is shit. Yes, hold up play and 'support striker' stuff is decent, but don't see that as enough to be a premier league starter. His primary job is to score. That said, it does make sense to keep him, on a sensible wage. Avoids the need for an additional signing. Guessing Mara will go (on loan at least); Stewart is something of an unknown entity; AA will presumably be on the right.

Tombola of turds?

Was there ever any comment from the England camp about the thinking behind this?

He did often slow things down, so I see what you mean. Very frustrating at times. However, in a RussBall team, playing in the Smallbone/Aribo role, he would offer more than under the latter stages of his time with us.

The crime is comical; your description is about the best thing I've read today. Someone needs to make a T-shirt.....

Agreed about the Valery stuff. Glad it went quiet and was, hopefully, completely groundless.

We're run like a cheap b&b.

Is there £60M total there?

Not sure where we recoup 50/60M. Who are we selling this time around? ABK. Perraud Sully. Mara? There's not a lot of family silver left to shift.

We pretty much always do, so no worries. Relaxed and confident. Ready to step in to CL places when one of the big 4 clubs mess up.

I don't know what I should make of this.
