Thought they’d already spent c £8m on a Brazilian GK as well.

Opinions on Tadic changed not because he left but because in the last month or so of the season he stepped up when we were facing relegation and put some tremendous performances in, influencing games. He’d been anonymous for large spells of his time with us. As for Edozie, the willingness to run is there, but all too often a weak shot, or a nothing final ball is the outcome.

Unlikely to have a go at the team for this. Where do you think this comes from, isn’t it straight out of the RM mantra to recycle it around the CBs and GK ?

Has anyone mentioned Mara’s mum on this thread yet ?

Might as well throw Tall Paul into that elite band of shit (or in fairness to him just totally unsuited ). Possibly TP might have offered a bit more effort than Mara.

That seems to be the mark of the modern winger though, at our level, either lightning pace, or it’s all nifty footwork and shoe shuffle ( cough - Edozie - cough ) and trying to beat one too many. Either way, no end product.

Read that as (Cesar) Romero , best known for this character:

Sulemana does offer us some pace, if and when he can be bothered.

Useless cunt. Get rid. Trouble is on this form there will be no takers. Not sure SR will use Goztepe as a modern form of transportation for our crap players.

Think positively. Either he gets this out of his system pre-season, or better still it brings RM & the club out of their coma with regards to the GK position.

Sounds a smokescreen for an outgoing transfer to me. Reckon £40m to Chelsea.

Trouble is we can’t afford Bazunu coming back to be “ as good as he was before”. He has to come back much improved.

Well that’s a good start I suppose. But then again many people speculated that Fatima Whitbread had bollocks. You can’t be too careful at these Olympic events.

How do you know they were “women” ? or by whose definition are they “women”?

Current theme shouldn’t be with the soundtrack of classical opera but the traditional terrace song of “ is this a library ?”

Gold medal for fucking rubbish opening ceremonies

Madness if so.

Are you suggesting another Wilcox legacy ??

City though are dealing at a different end of the market and the calibre of player they start with are always more likely to be sold on at a profit. It appears the pool we draw from are journeymen types and unlikely to be highly sought after following a year in Turkey. lis left one Turkish club and is loaned to another. I don't think there are many clubs in the bigger European leagues looking to sign him. Of course we only need to make one real go of it to hail it a great plan

Don't see the merit in this, but they may prove me wrong and arrive here next season . Perhaps they’re bought with the Championship in mind ! But i don't understand the benefit of Saints signing them, unless the thought is that they'll come good in Turkey, and satisfy the work permit criteria. Alternatively why don't Goztepe sign them ?

That Bierhoff bloke would be a good option for CF as well.

Think it’s been said on here before but the signings we should make from Celtic are some of their scouting network.

Was a great player when he first arrived and didn’t look out of place among KK, Ball, and Channon. For a while he seemed destined for the top, but he never really regained his form after a back injury. Will remain a favourite player of mine for his part in the KK era, and early 80’s. Especially for his winner at Fratton Park, surely one of the most celebrated goals in my lifetime. Hope he makes a full recovery.

I remember the game on the Friday at Villa Park in Sept 2022. We were crap, and Villa under Gerrard marginally less crap. But in a few weeks they appointed Emery and we appointed Nathan Jones. No wonder our paths diverged from there.

Thought we were linked with a 6’4” South Korean striker rather than this bloke. What’s the South Korea - Japan relationship like these days ? Seems we’re recruiting from both places.
