  1. Maybe Reed is Romeu's replacement
  2. Well MT did play for us over 20 games the season after that loan spell at the top level. Both similar players, both look better going forward but KWP has that extra pace.
  3. Hoedt, Forster, Carillo & Lemina's wages are probably about that ๐Ÿ˜‚ But yes, getting them here would be the issue!
  4. Will be good to see how the new kit looks in the flesh.
  5. Thought it was pretty obvious, but anyway here is a wiki explanation for you : https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Marquee_player I realise its not our business plan to buy them, but would be nice to have a top class player in our 11, even if slightly on the decline. Worked well for us in 83/84..good combination of youth and experience. Anyway, back to reality Rashica who was linked with us before is now lined up as Sancho replacement at Dortmund : https://www.telegraph.co.uk/football/2020/07/22/manchester-uniteds-hopes-signing-jadon-sancho-boosted-dortmund/
  6. Has he gone yet?
  7. Still would be nice for Saints to get a marquee signing.....Silva out of contract! give him a bumper one year deal! not sure he is suited to our pressing game though ๐Ÿ˜†
  8. Not sure about that - he has a massive bonus to be paid to him if Watford survive, which is now looking unlikely ๐Ÿ˜†

  10. 1) Player of the season (include honourable mentions) - Ings 2) Young player of the season - Not many to chose from, would say Obafemi. 3) Breakthrough of the season - Smallbone 4) Improvement of the season - Stephens 5) Signing of the season - Ings 6) Worst performance by a player of the season - Valery 7) Best performance by a player of the season - Stephens 8 ) Best result of the season - Beating Pompey 4-0 9) Worst result of the season - Easy to guess which one 10) Surprise result of the season - Beating Chelsea 2-0 away
  11. Like any of us would do that! - He is probably on the best wages of his career and knows after this is a large fall into a crap league/wages and then retirement. Unfortunately I think he will be off out on loan again for a season with us paying the majority of the wages. You never know some team in Argentina might take him off our hands for free.
  12. That's great negotiating by the recruitment team if so, and not much out the weekly wage budget!
  13. Bertrand has taken one for us and looked confident and scored. Give him a go!
  14. Yes he was looking promising but I think had a serious knee injury that put him out for about a year.
  15. Danso? Or wasn't he available either. Not sure.
  16. You would say around 45m-50m given his age. His penalty was wank though, just hit it hard......although should have been retaken as a Bournemouth player had clearly encroached before it was kicked.
  17. all GK's will make a mistake throughout the season....more than 3 or 4 is a reason to get worried..

    20/21 Kit

    I like some of the black training wear but 45 quid a t-shirt and 65 quid for a top....bit much. Basically paying 23 pound for an iron on badge :
  19. Good solid pro, can see him moving on at the end of this contract as done us great service since arriving, he is a bit noticeably slower this season but still has enough pace on him not to hinder.
  20. Seems to be in a bit of a funk, similarities with Joe Hart a few years back ...top keeper but now seems pretty average on form with regular big mistakes, will be interesting to see if mentality he can come back to his previous levels. Plus Utds pen...if you did a little skip like that down the local pitches you would be ridiculed for a long time ๐Ÿ˜‚
  21. I thought he looked pretty solid in goal and seems he loves the club so understandable would get over excited by the 'equaliser'. Looked dejected at the end, good to see Kelvin wait for him to come off and give him so words of encouragement (i hope).
  22. Wait up....Think Citeh have first dibs on Gunn ๐Ÿ˜‚
