Reading this case worries me. I've been sent some extremely unwelcome content on Whatsapp and my usual reaction is to roll my eyes and give negative feedback. But it doesn't stop the flow of hugely controversial content coming in. I'm going to either have to drop out of many groups, block some...
No idea why people are including Solly when talking about Dunk and Gross. Nobody comes close to those two. It is a sad day to see Pascal leave, but he has earned the move and been one of our best ever players. He will be sadly missed and I look forward to watching Dortmund this season.
You have the polar opposite opinion to me on this guy. I look forward to seeing which one of us is closer to being proven right come the end of the season. I would predict fewer than 5 goals and 5 assists all season. He might do well to get 5 goal involvements in total.
If he can stay fit and...
I think loaning out Facu Goodnight would be reasonable for a season, but probably better to loan him to La Liga. We definitely shouldn't be looking to sell him.
I agree with you - it feels fairly obvious to me that the coaching staff should be monitoring the fitness work being done by the players and it should be mandated that the players are at a certain level. I don't want to misquote Mourinho, but he said something to the effect of the players have...
Or maybe RDZ is of the opinion, as Mourinho is, that the players are responsible for their own conditioning. The players who want to do the work will do it, the players who don't won't and will get left behind. There's probably a better balance to be struck than we achieved last season!
West Ham love spending big money on a player who has shown a brief flash of ability, and throw big contracts. Hopefully we get the sale, to whoever, on our terms for the fee we want plus a Premium if selling to a Premier League side.
Rip their eyes out, TB!
This conversation seems to come back to an argument I had with an American regarding 9/11. My point was that if you KNEW the hijackers were going to take the planes, should you stop them? My argument was yes - of course you should, if you can prove they were going to hijack and crash the planes...
By this logic, I voted Emma Raducanu. She won 10 matches to win a tournament which usually requires only 7. She didn't lose a set and she beat a couple of players seriously in form at that time (including the Olympic Gold Medallist from a month or so before). It was remarkable what she managed...
No, he has personal responsibility. I have no doubt the club tried to keep him grounded and look after him, but ultimately it's up to the boy himself and he blew it. For whatever reasons, he went his own way. He alone is responsible for how his career is going and he alone will be responsible...
Personally, I think that Connolly only has himself to blame for what has happened to his career. He had all sorts of opportunities here, but he didn't take them. You can lead a horse to water, but you can not make them drink. Unfortunately, Connolly led himself to drink.
This is one hell of an opportunity for Carl Rushworth now. He can establish himself as number 1 in pre-season, no chance Fabian looks at Steele and sees a goalkeeper. Rushworth is now favourite to start the season for us and potentially he can take that chance and be our number 1 for the season...
Looks like the club have finally been able to break free from the rigid website format they had been held to previously. I remember Barber mentioning the website restrictions a long time ago - maybe someone remembers in better detail.
Probably more a case that a permanent move allows him to really start his career. Constant loans to various countries don't suit every player and I'm stunned how often we take player from country A and move them to country B and in some cases, a country C after that.
I think our transfer model...
