He'd probably argue that his 17 PL goals in 20/21 was quite impressive though.

If we get them for a couple of years, and make a tidy profit, I'll take that.

Yes. Reported. But, it's the circumstances that a photo doesn't show, particularly whether he knew that the club feels that he did not have permission to be there. Let's await some facts. Regardless, he was always likely to go, so I suspect that if he was there without permission, that it's made no real difference.

Quite. And why he was there if he was. I have to say, if be very surprised if he did something classless. He's played when others perhaps wouldn't, and that doesn't reek of someone who'd rock up somewhere to force a move.

This is an accumulation here, there are not any signs of improvement. He will love bomb the fans and say he feels the pain just as much as the fans do. If he thinks it'll work, only improvements and victories will win over the fans and the vast majority are gone. I don't think there is anything he can say that will make things even the tiniest bit better.

Not if they're framed right.

Yep. And don't get me started on Sweet Caroline. Horrendous. And about an 11 year old kid.

Yep. Ditto Fraser.

Do you really measure a keeper (or any players) ability by stats? They're largely nonsense. Take Downs. No assists yesterday. That's because someone else didn't finish a gift. Fwiw, I'm not a Baz fan. I see someone not save shots that he should. I don't need a stat for that. However, our owners don't see what I see, ditto others, hence my acceptance that he's staying and won't be upgraded. And yep, Leeds got promoted in spite of their keeper because they were strong elsewhere. All of the above highlights that the focus on Baz futile - he's our boy, and if we're better elsewhere, we'll do ok regardless.

He's right though, and has called out exactly what you're doing.

You're confusing what we needed with what you wanted. We have 2 senior keepers. We had a kid as 3rd pick so needed a grown up. That's what we got. Anyways, it seems that people now think McCarthy is ok.

He'd be ideal, and give us just what we need. That said, he's made the bench in Fulham's games so I can't see them letting him go, or him dropping down. Shame, he needs to play, and he's the kind of player we need.

The point still stands that on Monday people were calling for him to either be our number 3 or have his contract paid up. A day later, and it's give him the gloves.

I'd live with that, but my expectations are even lower.

Yep. And "he's excited to stay, and it's like having a new signing". Let's see, but my cynicism is kicking in the closer that window is to being slammed shut.

Yep. Someone who didn't produce in a decent Sheffield United team doesn't excite me, and doesn't feel to be an upgrade on Edozie. He seems to be an older version of Sam Amo-Ameyaw. Let's see how the window plays out, but if we don't get a decent winger, I'd expect Edozie to be back in the fold.

There's that, but they may be hedging their bets. A dangerous game to play, but if the choice is Edozie or nobody new who's an upgrade, I'd take Edozie.

Or we get neither, and our "new" winger is Edozie and our "new" midfield dynamos are Aribo and Smallbone...I'd hate to think that we're clinging on to players as we're having difficulties getting new players in.

Meslier is a good shout. Steele is BHA number 2 so unlikely, Woodman has just joined Liverpool, and Bettinelli hasn't played in 4 years. Ortega ambitious as you say, but he'll want a move you'd imagine.

I think he means when Johansson became available, and then in anticipation of getting relegated, not actually signing Ramsdale. Or something.

Indeed. It comes to something when. killing journalists is deemed to be better for your international reputation than allowing those journalists to report what you're about to do.

Yep. Leave France, bob about a bit, let off a flare, get picked up by a British sea ferry.

That'll come on juandy.

Was it one of them shady £40m transfer fees?

I'm not sure there's an easier job in professional sport. Perhaps 3rd pick kicker in American Football. Keep fit, travel a bit, play plenty of cards, "work" til you're about 45, never get injured, retire as fresh as a daisy. If I wasn't a dwarf, I'd have been all over that.
