Think it will be a similar budget to last year but I think the remit might be British players under 25 as our primary targets - probably 3-5 players. Still think we might look at Abraham and James would be excellent business if Chelsea would be prepared to sell.
Ryan - 8 save after save
Bruno - 7 just love him, has so much class
Dunk and Duffy - 9 make no mistake we are still in the PL because of these 2, if I were a top 6 manager I would happily spend a combined 100 million on these 2
Bernardo - 8.5 brilliant performance, strong in the tackle and...
A thoroughly professional performance from PalaceI hope we take take the lessons from this season and take the fortunate opportunity we have been given, I dislike Warnock immensely but he deserves some praise too as he hasn’t embarrassed himself in PL. I hope we play with passion aggression and...
I know, I know, we have been beyond atrocious. After 5 years of feast the last 4 months have been demoralizing but let me at lest dream of getting something at Arsenal.
I.Know.But.They.Have.Been.On.Awful.Form.
I was talking more about the manner of our performance not necessarily the result although a point would be delightful and a win like asking for the world.
Cardiff play first so we will know exactly what we need to do next weekend, It would be lovely to finish on a high note if Cardiff lose or draw. Club need to give fans hope for next season.
I am definitely Team Raheem, wonderful player and comes across as a thoroughly decent human being but docking points is not the answer. The full power of the law coming down on racist abusers is the answer and a permanent ban from any ground and naming and shaming. Clubs can only come encourage...
Ryan 8
Montoya 7
Dunk 9
Duffy 8
Bernardo 8
Stephens 7
Bissouma 8
Andone 7

Gross 6
You can’t fault any of the players at the end of the day. It took a late strike from a world class player to win the game. Bernardo and Bissouma are players I love watching. Dunk gave a...
I quite like the idea of Bernardo playing further forward with Bong behind.
I would also go with Andone and save Murray for Newcastle as realistically it offers more chance of a point/s although the Geordies are on a rich vein of form.
He has been badly out of form and deserves to be dropped and I mean that as a favour to him not a punishment. Last nights performance was his very worst and sad to see.Time to recover, rest up and recharge his batteries, he is not the only boy one. Murray has been non descriptive since the turn...
Normally after a defeat I give NSC a wide berth as it full of over reaction and it’s frankly quite depressing but yesterday I was fuming and wanted to vent my anger. Today I draw a line under that performance. Every player is so much better than that abysmal showing and now all the focus is on...
Ryan - 5 OK first half but absolutely no command of the goal area
Montoya - 4 slow and ineffective
Duffy - 4 an awful day in an outstanding season
Dunk - 5 struggled today and threw himself around hopelessly, tried a couple of defense splitting passes which didn’t quite come off
Bernardo...
First time ever, I’m tempted to say out. The warning is that Norwich sacked him at a very similar point in the season and went down. The gulf today in class was simply frightening and we have never defended so badly. A simply pathetic performance. We have been sussed out. We want to much time on...
