    [Help] Post length

    It depends how nuanced your post is intended to be. When discussing big topics, a few words doesn't get the job done. How can you make a balanced argument about Gareth Southgate's England tenure without taking a moment to acknowledge the results are amazing, the performances are pathetic and the...

    [Albion] Julio Enciso - Paraguay’s new wonder kid (Signed 17/06/2022)

    Hopefully it will motivate him to prove to Tony that he can play the Olympics and then be a match winner for us. If his performance level is right then Bloom will quickly overlook any frustration he might have (although I find it hard to believe that he would have wanted to stop Enciso playing...

    [Albion] Julio Enciso - Paraguay’s new wonder kid (Signed 17/06/2022)

    I think he will prove to be our best player this season. I'm glad he's going to the Olympics, he hasn't played too much in the last year so the gametime will do him no harm at all and we'll use him wisely over the course of the season.

    [Albion] Emile Smith-Rowe

    I didn't ask you to do anything. You did it yourself and then were only able to provide evidence he was a good for about 3 months, 3 years ago. I don't know what point you're trying to make to be honest, but the chip on your shoulder is showing. That's exactly what it is. He wears number 10 for...

    [Albion] Emile Smith-Rowe

    I do agree that he had a spell of great form between September and December 2021. That's a fact. Outside of that 3 month spell he's been in and out of the team, injury prone and unproductive. Even during his run of form you demonstrated, he helped himself to 2 assists. I don't think that's very...

    [Football] The ticking Profit and Sustainability (FFP) timebomb...

    To be fair to Chelsea and also to City before them, the loop holes they've identified are pretty impressive. I'm against it because I believe in integrity and a level playing field, but with the rules as they currently are it has forced clubs to consider how to get around them. Chelsea are very...

    [Albion] Emile Smith-Rowe

    Unnecessary rudeness aside, this is very useful! Unimpressive lack of assists but a good run of form in front of goal. Someone will get value from him, but it won't be us for the type of money being quoted.

    [Albion] Emile Smith-Rowe

    I'd be interested to see how many minutes those appearances totalled - but I don't dispute he had a spell where he was heavily involved. It's how he got their number 10 shirt. But as I said, they've since changed their style and there's no room for him. Partly because of his injury record but...

    [Football] Enzo Fernandez involved in racist chant

    He'll either have been loaned out to Atletico Madrid before having to face his team mates, or he'll get an absolute clackering at training.

    [Albion] Emile Smith-Rowe

    Good luck to him, he's had a terrible time with injuries in the last couple of years and it must have been really hard for him. He's not been able to get back into a fantastic Arsenal team and they've changed their style so no longer play with a number 10. They tried to get him into the team...

    [Albion] Emile Smith-Rowe

    This has to be a joke? I can't believe anyone who has seen him play would think he'd be a "brilliant" signing. Have you ever seen him play? He's never produced a run of form in his career and seems only suited to playing as a number 10, which very few teams really do.

    [Politics] Trump under fire.

    Trump has said a lot worse in the last 8 years. But Biden's reaction to this situation underlines the difference in class between the men. Biden has spoken brilliantly in response to this madness and shown a level of maturity and respect that Trump has spent his time in politics trying to...

    [Football] To all the Southgate haters / wrong again and again and again **SOUTHGATE NOW RESIGNED**

    This is fantastic news. The team has been absolute rubbish under Southgate, miserable to watch and getting progressively worse because the quality of players has increased dramatically throughout his tenure. He doesn't have a tactical brain at all, is purely interested in defending at all times...

    [Politics] The 2024 US Election - Trump v Harris

    Young Joe probably does need to step aside in good time to allow for proper campaigns. Surely he could just publically call on the Delegates to release their votes for him and allow a contested convention so that the various candidates capable of running a campaign in the timeframe can get...

    [Albion] Bart Verbruggen SINGS a 5-year deal

    I think he's badly vulnerable at set pieces, I was surprised that Türkiye didn't make more of it. England should be pumping the set pieces into the box and getting lads around Bart, he's not imposing enough and it's definitely a route to goal. Shot-stopping wise he's magnificent, his reactions...

    [Albion] Which players won't be going to Japan?

    All very funny, but that's not correct in the slightest. We have a huge number of players in the squad!

    [Albion] Mason Greenwood, would you want him at the Albion?

    Unfortunately, I think he might have ended up failing the famous test to weed out tosseurs.

    Is that just the men's teams or does that include the women as well?
