Is this part of 10 year Solak plan? Joking aside we will have more freedom to spend and hopefully some pretty clear lessons learned, should we be fortunate enough to bounce back at the first time of asking, again.

No wonder we aren’t competitive, we have spent well below the amount required to improve the team to be remotely competitive. Fulham seems quite impressive but they had spent a lot on their previous visit.

Wasn’t he the guy that destroyed Bordeaux? They are now in the French 4th tier. It really could have been much worse than having SR as owners, we could have our club leveraged with debt and never far from financial oblivion. SR aren’t the most competitive owners but we can thank Semmens for not selling to Da Grosa. Not sure he would have even passed the fit and proper test in reality.

We trounced them on successful passes and possession.

I read we want €13m but would accept €10m. Might as well keep him until the summer at £2.5m!

Wonder if we offered him a pro deal or not? Scored a few goals in our academy.

Just feel Lallana and Smallbone is a strange combination.

Why hasn’t Downes come on?

How many times have we had PGMOL quote high bar and screw us. Where was that high bar for the pen? You can even see Isak move his foot a quick step to the side before diving over. They watched it so many times that it can’t be a clear and obvious error. Had to stick with on field decision. Unsurprisingly heads drop and it’s a 2nd goal in quick succession. Mentality is so fragile. Made me think of the semedo one at wolves where our attacking player was deemed to foul semedo. Both ridiculous decisions and there is just no consistency, barring one, the decisions going against us!

Desperate to score against his boyhood club.

McCarthy looks quite nervous. Wonder if he will assist another goal for them today.

Tranmere’s 4th goal sticks in my mind as a kid. 3-0 up at HT, the magic of the FA Cup! Tom Davies at Everton did feel like relegation and Zlatan in the final hit so hard, we deserved more. We do have a knack of conceding late painful goals from a position of hope. The Southampton way.

Debatable. Relegation all but mathematically confirmed but I would like to see us at least keep having a go in the remaining games. Les gives us a better chance of being competitive with Juric’s style.

Maresca seems to be happy to go with what they have, hopefully he doesn’t change his mind before the window shuts.

Poor source admittedly… but we don’t have many incoming links, so there!

We’ve also seen interest from Newcastle and United too. Absolutely zero chance of him being here next season, such a shame that our academy talent is only going to play one season for us. The number of teams interested should at least command a decent fee.

Daily Mail suggesting that Tyler would be open to a move abroad.
