  1. Its the expectation that the money he costs brings
  2. Career stats from Transfermarkt. Stats for us indicate a easy 20M+ striker - goal every other game - so can see why club is saying 40m (allegedly) Unfortunately his contract length is the counter balance - so i say 30mil and we move one either in the summer Or we put it in his release clause that its 20mil once he has done 1 full season on the next contract but if he score under 20 goals each season it goes up 10mil per year ;-) Bench him at 19 goals obvs
  3. Yeah this is crazy now. Fofana at Leicester started from day 1
  4. Yeah he was. 🙉
  5. Just checked and he has the 2nd best goals per game on our all time list behind Ron Davies and if he scores a few more goals will move up from 12 to 8th all time goal scorers
  6. True, but the money involved nowadays means no one is gonna say Danny Wallace to man u etc.
  7. Agree with MLG Ings is an important player because of a) his own abilities as a player and b)his importance to the teams success in our system. I would only put Virgil/Mane/Poch in the same category of "how we going to replace them" level as Ings.
  8. Play to the whistle, stephens turns like an oil tanker
  9. we never smash anyone, we cant score in a brothel and we have more kids than michael jackson
  10. Not really relevant but if anyone is interested it's the De Klassieker here tomorrow Ajax v Feynoord who are 1/2 in the league as well, should be a excellent derby. Going for Feynoord as been to a few games last year and their fans even when we played them in pre-season are excellent. Berghuis is their best player, Tadic should be on show for Ajax I think
  11. United will hardly play him but they dont want to help one of their champions league rivals............ Haters gonna hate
  12. Wonder if this will help reset the whole player salary expectations. We post we have "booked" losses of this size so how does Ings agent try and wring more money out of us above what we are offering and spin it positively? As other clubs release their accounts will those players coming off contract or up for renewal realise they can't demand what they thought due very very few clubs willing to spend it. Wonder how Everton and West Ham's accounts will look if Man U and Spurs post large losses as well.
  13. 5 goals - 6 assists - 4 Man of the matches and I've seen a couple of articles talking about him potentially an ajax future player.
  14. No idea about our interest anymore but I do look out for Veerman here as am in NL and he is defo a player, he's sort of a frenkie de jong type if that helps. Think Heerenveen need to sell in the summer so the figure I saw being aired was 12.5mil. Defo a player to keep an eye on.
  15. Let me be the first to say: I've never heard of him, never seen a match he has played but I for one say he is mustard and the transfer window will be a failure if we dont get him in early. Also swedish players never have ugly girlfriends.
  16. jesus this page is trash today
  17. Thanks dude, always love to understand our tactics and application so will add this website to my list.
  18. Agree with you on the taking a man on etc and dont mind him losing it but its where he loses it that is frustrating, the centre circle is never ideal but hey if this is all part of our learning then hopefully we move through this phase quickly
  19. Yeah had this for the last few days
  20. great article on our tactics - worth a read https://www.telegraph.co.uk/football/2021/01/05/tactical-secrets-behing-southamptons-stunning-league-campaign/

  22. yeah thought he had done it quite a few times but just seemed to be doing it more this season, its so bloodying annoying.
  23. Loved and hated that game for periods. Diallo covered everything like he was at a bukakke party and the thing he gives us v Romeu and what we have been lacking is forward passes as his default setting. Saw a stat that 22 out of 38 were forward passes and his clever close control in the midfield was awesome, JWP a good partner as well. Think defense as a bloc did very well and I think Stephens has been excellent since he has come in. Forster whilst it was nice to see him didn't inspire a lot of confidence in me. I saw a few times when stephens expected him to come and he was still inside his 6yr box and also his kicking has not improved. Armstrong has this annoying habit this season of dribbling into the centre circle trying to beat 3 players and losing it, not sure if Ralph has asked him to cut inside and try and open up his options but it is bloody annoying seeing him lose it and the oppo launch an attack. Walcott seemed to lose his close control and decision making last night, was Djenpo esq. Ings quality and well done to all the subs, nice to see ralph use young guys over long to give them a try, liked Nlundlu - he's actually a big striker with nimble feet. Enjoyed 22 pages of RAWK - in summary, there is a conspiracy by referee's, they hate carragher, they love ralph and everyone is out to get them.
  24. If walcott can stop hesitating when he gets the ball or getting in the way and if armstrong stops losing the ball in the centre circle after trying to dribble around 3 players we have a chance hahahahahahahahaha
