Shane that was dog shit fucked up a 2v1

We’d put just as many past if we had Ings/Armstrong/Walcott/Redmond/Adams (okay not just as many but be comfortable tonight) I feel like it is these sorts of games where Djenepo would shine

Yeah I’ve had a look This wasn’t one of the 8 ties officially selected for TV but the additional ones for the ‘digital’ platforms/red button. Not bad though we’ll get £37,500 for it

BT Sport tonight with no presenters and the half time analysis are the commentators going through the highlights again.

Yep echo sentiments above- Caleb has been decent- might even be a more viable sub option than Long if our injury woes remain

GET IN! Dan Nlundulu!!!

The referee looks like one of the younger players dad

I agree to an extent but it is very hard to get right- giving 4/5 year deals to Lemina, Elyounoussi, Boufal, Carrillo, Hoedt etc etc had completely shot us in the foot and hindered us so badly as it makes it so difficult to get rid of them. Personally, and perhaps we will from now, but the balance is to only accept players who will take on £30k to £40k (on a 4 year deal), and offer them £75k or more after showing a good performance after 2 years. If they don't sign- then we should try to sell them on a profit. If they end up terrible- we try and recoup and it is far easier to do so when they are on lower wages. The downside is a player might not want to sign for us on an initial £30k/£40k wage; but then I'd argue players lose their hunger or something. The only time it'd be fathomable to offer a player £75k instantly would be if we had an amazing pedigree in the top 4/5 European leagues and was worthy of that. However I will admit it is a very tough balancing act for the club.

I hope we have considered a replacement at the very least or have an idea of who we want to buy- I think the Blackbox used to do this. Leicester must be coming to a stage where they will try to replace Vardy - we should try and hack their scout/database and steal their transfer targets Although I suspect Leicester's replacement of Vardy will be in the £20m to £35m and we will be looking in the £8m to £15m market.

Yep exactly correct. It was the same for Liverpool a few months ago- they put out a strong team for their dead rubber game in the UCL because had they won that, it would have banked them €2.7m!!! (the same game Jota got injured) You might argue on the other hand, winning the FA Cup will open up a whole new load of revenue streams inc. European money for next year- but the chances of us winning it is very small sadly so the league will always take priority.

‘Very important for the nation we can continue football- january is tough for people’ say the multimillionaires

Fuck sake

I don’t think squad is bare it is about the right size we can get. Any team without their best CB, 2nd best CM, first choice wingers and best ST will struggle!

omg what an effort

Yep agreed- them winning the league has propelled them to such an extent that it just seems like they will be there or thereabouts from now

Bertrand out of next game is that next PL game or is it the FA Cup game on tuesday?

Gosh we are better off letting covid rip through the squad for a bit with all these injuries

Yep pure shithousery.

Omg again Theo should do better with that

I want to disagree- he had a few good flick-ons early in the half. However towards the end he was largely anonymous. I think the next stage in our development is finishing- we are now making chances and we can keep the ball decent but apart from Ings no one else shoots convincingly!

That is not a yellow

Ah Bertrand All our shots have been at Schmeichel

Fuck sake how is he scoring from there

Bloody hell good save Macca that could have been stupid

I could be wrong but I think he has scored 3 times in the PL for us, and in all we have lost by 3-2 after going 2 goals ahead!!!
