Whitey Grandad

Thanks for these. I thought that you had missed out Osvaldo but I found out that he ws bought in 2013 😨 Who remembers Florín Gardos for £6.12m? And Juanmi was £6.3m. Let's not also forget the wages bill that these players have soaked up. Also there are the payoffs to sacked managers. I wouldn't expect every one to be a success but there has been a lot of money flushed down the toilet.

That sounds familiar.

With Mourinho coming here?

It’s difficult to complain about lack of funding when you consider how much money we’ve frittered away in the last few seasons. If somebody feels up to making a list it would make for sorrowful reading.

The Premier League could never be a fair competition if these six clubs are going to get a huge wad of extra cash every year. It’s uneven enough already and no competition organisers could ever agree to such a gross imbalance.

Now we know how Man City feel.

Bednarek got sucked in again.

Oops Che on for Redmond now please.

It’s Sunday:)

There’s only one agenda here and you own it.

Presumably that’s 3 wins in 16. Why did you choose only 15?

Let’s hope so.

And Harry in his Nazi one

Two examples tell you nothing. Someone very kindly posted the figures for McCarthy and Forster and FF came out well ahead.

It’s an offence to interfere with another player. The fact that he’s there and that close might be considered enough. As the old quote goes, if he ain’t interfering what’s he doing on the pitch? If it was so clear why did the assistant raise his flag? You take technology as absolute but we can’t determine exactly when the ball was kicked. So the assistant and the VAR team didn’t overrule it and you think they should have asked you first? Perhaps they are all biased or deliberately obtuse or just clueless.

But another player was in an offside position on the six yard line and in front of the goalmouth.

By whose reckoning? Instances of it being blatantly wrong are few and far between.

No, of course they can’t. It doesn’t adapt well to a technological solution and the Law was never designed or intended for it. I say bin VAR and leave it up to the assistant on the line. If he looks offside put your flag up and get on with the game.

No Please no

So presumably that’s 3 league wins in 16? Why did you stop at 15? Why not go back to the first game of the season? If you want to be selective and only include the losses then he’s had a terrible season. If you only include the wins he’s done a lot better. Judge him ay the end of the complete season.

Whatifery Then we’d have beaten WBA because the players would have been trying harder. Possibly

Otherwise why vaccinate?

Do we ever score headed goals, not from a corner I mean?

I’d take that

Nothing to take from this game at all. No positives. Nothing.
