Bakovnetski

The whole team was awful for that. This breaking up the transitional play to check back for a possession pass is killing any opportunities to confront defences on the run or back foot

This is true but none the more likely than our defence or midfield being caught in, and losing, possession from too short or slow interpassing, or sending the entire defence up for corners and leaving little coverage for a breakaway. Both of these happened repeatedly yesterday.

Top 3 at least

Behave...

I just have a suspicion that Dibling will get lost at Everton. Can't say what tangible evidence that's based on but, just a feeling.

There's probably a few come over by inflatables this summer

Russian club?

Fabrizio is the word!

There was some suggestion that it could transgress some UEFA rule so just asking if this is any different or not

As he's been sold by Lens to St Pauli and then been taken back under a buy-back clause already this summer will there not be a kerfluffle like when Villa bought Archer and then sold him to us?

Morecambe have been sold/saved. https://www.thenationalleague.org.uk/national-league-statement-morecambe-football-club-83916

Charles is looking boss-like. Bring his brother in as another goalie.

Because he's too f*cking short of course 🤣

Absoluute crap so far

If that means we sign athletes and units who can kick a ball accurately and quickly to teammates rather than short stops who fall over with the slightest push and can't beat a man then I'm all for it

Surely some wag can come up with a Will Still chant/song using the Thompson Twins...

Thwow him to the gwound!

He did get a push. Or maybe a mild slap.

Downs can't stay on his feet

Worse than Carillo even

McCarthey looked OK with saves early on but has blotted that with a couple of howlers and miss placed passes We need a new No 1 or 2

Haha, if JS continues in this goal scoring vein and actually cuts out the f*ck ups I'll have to eat some big slices of humble pie. If, mind you.

Wasn't Ramsdale very much seen as a coup?
