  1. The whole, “who is to say my alternative view is wrong” narrative is just so completely boring Anyone who genuinely thinks that world governments have managed to find a level of collusion never before seen, is frankly batshit… these are the guys that literally couldn’t even organise a piss up without dropping everyone in it I’m all for trying to understand narratives and look into things, but this whole ‘gotcha’ movement around vaccines just stinks of people that either cannot accept the banality of their own lives or are genuinely wired incorrectly. It won’t be long before we’re all called sheep for following the status quo.. its a very tired put down.. we’re all sheep, but my personal shepherds are founded in real science and Le Tissiers are fake Dr’s on youtube
  2. He’s an intelligent guy, but he is still down the rabit hole, he’s able to verbalise and explain his thought processes a lot better than a great many of the gullible that have been taken in by the conspirashit theories that sprung up all over the place but his arguments still fall apart when you look further behind the curtain
  3. I suppose it depends what you want sprinkled on your cornflakes in the morning but tbh I prefer my actual news channels to be news channels and not legislate themselves as ‘entertainment programmes’ so they don’t have to fact check the thinly veiled racism they serve
  4. I think we’ll keep 2/3 of them tbh
  5. He’ll play at Chelsea because they don’t have a true No.6 if/when Kante leaves and he’s good enough too The only two teams he doesn’t get into straight away in the prem is probably City (Rodri) or Utd (Casemiro) Im going to assume if they’re going for Lavia then Arsenal must have Rice tied up then and PSG Ugarte
  6. McCarthy is genuinely awful
  7. Agree… there was times I understood the Ely inclusions (understanding and agreement is different) but I never understood why we had that period where Edozie got nowhere near the side, apparently he didn’t work back hard enough but we were screaming out for a bit of ‘pressure release’ at times and his footwork is perfect for it
  8. Im not sure the prem resembles the bottom 2/3 leagues of Sunday league tbh
  9. We just need the Martin smokescreen to lift and reveal Nagglesmen… or Bruce.. Im not picky
  10. He’d be immobile next to Lavia anyway
  11. Which is all tactical….how many of our 11 do you want bombing forward ? McCarthy ? Lyanco ? Andrew Sparkes ? Lavia and JWP are a double pivot, much like Romeu (who you could genuinely say was at times immobile) before him, although JWP has licence to push forward to occupy the space just infront of the 18 yrd box if numbers allow Its the way we’ve played for effectively 3/4 years now, even before that Wanyama sat deep… what exactly do you want or expect ? And is this what you mean by immobile ? Fir reference, we use our fullbacks effectively as overlapping wing backs, allowing our 10s to push inside, we do overly rely on our FBs for natural width as they don’t tend to add much… this changes slightly if we utilise KWP on te left as he tends to play as an inverted Wingback, so at times this season its allowed Sulemana to play wide with KWP moving with the ball more centrally I do agree we’ve been overly reliant, we have no real pace outside of KWP or Tino… KWP has still been progressive, but we just havn’t had any effective movement in attacking areas so he has nowhere to go when he beats a man
  12. We tried to bag Potter… I would imagine the answer will be the same
  13. Tbf it could be one of those Sports Direct mugs
  14. Im struggling to understand how a player with some of the best running metrics in the prem (JWP) is considered immobile either tbh
  15. Funnily enough he has still managed to be one of the best FBs as far as carries is concerned in all the T5 leagues, it is actually a stat that surprised me a little when I read it.. because like many have said its felt like he’s had a poor year overall Ive never thought he was a brilliant defensive FB but then the game these days is effectively full of these types, adding attacking intent from FB and lacking strength defensively I just think teams found us out, forcing us inside when we attack and exploiting our weaker flanks when we defend, his constant stop start through injuries and flipping from RB to LB probably hasn’t helped either Either way he is still one of our best players, likely in the top 3 and will probably be well sought after for anyone around mid table in the prem
  16. Calling JWP and Lavia immobile is quite the take tbh but here we are
  17. For about the 9 millionth time, its all agreed If he decides to tear up his contract now then I wouldn’t want him here anyway
  18. All of this and a very bad ankle injury that was probably caused, in part, due to his lifestyle and he just had no real motivation to overcome it He’ll probably end up in Saudi where he can sack it off and still earn a fortune
  19. It would of been a fantastic plan if we hadn’t of spent 200m to try to stave off relegation and, in the case of relegation stand to lose a minimum of about £130m a year in revenue I think, despite the fact they accelerated the decent due to ineffective leadership and decisions, they knew we were in for a bottom half scrap this season, hence the rhetoric around similarities between Prem snd Champ
  20. Ugarte, Caicedo and an in form Enzo is a ridiculous midfield
  21. Well it is pride month tbf
  22. Couldn’t write it eh
  23. Its widely reported personals have been agreed and apparantly he’s been to Staplewood already Im sure he is in contact with the club about what he wants, the players are currently away on holiday, there really isn’t a rush if its only a few days to wait for a cheaper fee I do get the clamour from fans to get this over the line but in reality this is all just formalities that I doubt have any significance to either club
  24. I think we already tried and were rejected The Martin deal feels like its done anyway, we’re just waiting to sort the fee
  25. Id be amazed and genuinely angry if Potter pitches up at Leicester
