Yes probably but you would have thought we would have ironed this all out before we let Fonte go.

That flies in the face of what we know. If the situation wasn't that bad then why were we attempting to get a loan at the last minute for a Swansea reserve player? It's a f*ck up pure and simple and the fact that the club haven't even acknowledged it is even worse.

He was injured and seemingly we only discovered this at the last minute.

You loved Milan away? The actual game I mean? Must be a glutton for punishment.

Who let this idiot back on? What a shame.

Let's just hope by some miracle we can win the cup and then scrape enough points to stay up. Otherwise it could be an incredibly depressing end to the season.

I really really hope so.

I'm genuinely stunned. Is this really mlg criticising the club???

I doubt it. No one wants the club to fail or seriously wants our players to get injured.

Indeed. The warning signs were there for Newcastle and villa in recent seasons too and palace last year who may well go down. Once a malaise sets in it can be very hard to get out of it.

I almost (almost) want Yoshida to get injured now to highlight how ridiculous this situation is.

Selling our best players every season is tough to take but at least we have been making decent replacements. Now we have stopped doing even that with the summer and it appears in January. We've now lost 5 out of 6 in the league which is appaling. Heads should roll.

If we don't get a cb then the club is just trolling the fans.

Really pathetic. Horrendous league form and unfortunately this will continue as Les won't be getting rid of puel now.

I do wonder how long the club can take the fans for mugs before there is a reaction. Sfc are very lucky that they have managed to get to a final this year otherwise the knives would be out and for good reason. I expect that no matter what happens puel will now keep his job for next season and we can generate some good pr in lieu of actual signings.

I've already said I'll be holding out hope until 11. I wish we wouldn't leave it so late in the day though!

Either that or they haven't told reporters anything. I'll be holding out hope till 11.

To be fair you can hardly say it's unjustified. To not bring a centre back in would be madness, particularly because you want the strongest team possible for the final.

Hmm. Looks like we'll get a striker but no cb is a big worry. We were pretty weak there even before Fonte left and now with an injury to vvd we won't go the rest of the season without a cb will we?

I don't agree with the travel ban and I've said that three times now. However, Trump has been given a mandate by the people to do this sort of thing so he is perfectly within his rights to do it. It isn't me conflating very different things, it was Caroline lucas calling for Trump to be banned from the UK yesterday because he is a racist and sexist and because of his "Muslim ban" (which isn't a Muslim ban.) People are turning this into a massive thing because they despise Trump and because they can't stand that he won the election and is doing what he said he would do.

What would be better is to stop continuously calling people racist and sexist and all manner of other things because they voted for Trump over Clinton. If they worked on a more effective message and were maybe a bit more humble next time then maybe they would have a better chance in 4 years rather than protesting at the drop of a hat something that the American people voted for (and which the majority support) and which Trump has a mandate to implement. I don't agree with it in its current form by the way but he is perfectly entitled to implement the ban.

Indeed. It's incredibly sad and entitled.

The reaction to this extreme vetting is pathetic, as is liberals calling for him to be refused a state visit. He's the elected president of America and as such he should be allowed to come here and his policies are free to be debated while he does so. We've had all sorts of leaders here who I wouldn't agree with at all but they were allowed to come here all the same. I don't agree with this immigration policy in its current form but it isn't illegal and he is entirely free to implement what he said he was going to do and what the American people voted for. Some people would prefer that we cut off all ties during his presidency which would mean that the UK suffers but they can feel good about themselves.

Lol. I'd love if that were a requirement.
