I can’t see Lavia’s agent agreeing to a deal which effectively bans him from signing for anyone but City. It would put them in a much weaker position. None of us know the exact details of this clause but most of the rumours point to a pretty straight forward buy-back fee, starting in 2024.

Mids go from 161-4 to 171ao. Some collapse that.
-
No, Brighton absolutely sh*toting the bed against them in one of the most bizarre games of the season has kept them up. They’ll likely stay up on 36 points, which is absolutely crawling to safety really, and if it weren’t for Pickford, they’d have finished bottom. True RE Allardyce previously, I was just referring to Leeds.

Because they'll look like a bunch of wallies if it goes tits up and it'll put us in a much weaker negotiating position, whilst achieving absolutely naff all.
-
Middlesex not looking too clever with the bat tonight either, could do with putting them to the sword.
-
TBH I think it’d actually be funny if the stadium was just 32,000 Liverpool fans.

Which is ruch a roundabout way of saying he doesn't do half of his job and needs a better player along side to do it for him. He's a decent Championship striker and worth keeping but a poor one at PL level and very much part of the problem.

None of the other three above us are any better than the teams who've gone down in recent seasons. Everton will stay up on 36 points, have been crap all season and money has seemingly dried up. I don't see any real calibre to Leeds and Leicester. Both have looked rudderless all season and will need a serious rethink in summer, same as us. My main hope is that Everton have to sell Pickford to balance the books and next season they're as bad as we are now.

I once paid €50 for a suck session.

I think being banned from Eurovision two years running was just too much for some Russians.
-
But that’ll be because we have a proper manager who has the team better organised, not because we have inferior midfielders.
-
How on Earth is a worse player going to make them a better team? Fulham and Brentford are better because they have better teams and managers, not because they have bad midfielders.
-
There are a lot of options out there who I'm sure would do a decent job IF there's a solid plan in place for a way we're going to play and we adjust our squad accordingly. The reason Jones was such a disaster was because we simply looked at him as doing a decent jon at Luton but ignored the fact that he was a direct, long ball merchant whilst we had a squad full of slow, technical players.
-
It's not going to change the world but, whatever business you're in, customers walking out en masse is never a good thing. It may just hammer the point home that if things don't pick up next season, we wont be back buying more tickets. Then they will give a sh*t.

We know nothing of his mindset. Collectively this team is awful; the players are substandard and the tactics are hopeless. Passing it sideways and backwards is simply a sign of how poor all the options are around him and how ineffective we are at mounting an incisive attack.
-
We lost 9-0 to Man United with 25% possession. Just saying.
-
If you think we’re getting anyone in this summer who’s anywhere near as good as JWP, you’re in for a very nasty shock.
-
What?! Nothing gets me pumped up for another dreadful home defeat quite like hearing the same five bars of OWTS, played incessantly and far too loud, for a solid ten minutes.
-
Bye bye has-beens, but why are they still being selected?
Lighthouse replied to SaintJackoInHurworth's topic in The Saints
Because they’re our players and they’re the best we have available, so it’d be silly not to play them. Christ, if you think we’re bad now, I dread to think what we’d be like without JWP, KWP and Lavia in the side. There’s no point in playing players who WILL be here next season, we’ve just got to try and drag ourselves through as best we can and try not to be embarrassed. -
I won’t be going but to those who are, I would suggest a walk out on 70 mins. I think if anything is going to send a message to those running the club, it’s an empty stadium, rather than booing.

I think this season we’d have been better off sending George RR Martin, Russell Crowe, Martin Brundle, Martina Hingis, a tramp who sleeps rough in Russell Square, Andre Russell, the ghosts of Martin Peters, MLK and Dean Martin, Russell Brand, a Martin Baker ejector seat and a Russell Hobbs blender out onto the pitch.
