Yes, but his defensive positioning was soooo naïve. It was often like he'd never experienced a flick on in his life before and had no idea how to defend it. He also kept screwing up the offside trap so was starting to look a bit of a liability there. All of this aside, it's been about as...

I don't think he's been crap and you're mad if you think an injured player "does nothing" for a year. They are at the club working on their recovery consistently - doing their job. I also can't find any quote of him bragging in the press that he is going to move to a big club. There is a quote...

100% this. He was a little wasteful when he came on (as was, to a larger extent, Gruda and occasionally Weiffer) but gave his usual intense effort which really helped our press. Seemed really happy (as did everyone) at full time. I'm not really sure why he's become such a scapegoat. He seems a...

Verbruggen Gross Dunk Duffy Estupinan Caicedo Bissouma March Mac Allister Mitoma Murray Bench: Ryan, Cucurella, Bruno, Webster, Baleba, Gilmour, Enciso, Trossard, Welbeck Been a bit cheeky and included Pascal at RB. Can't believe I've had to leave Veltman out but if it's a choice between him...

I can't believe this needs explaining... @Gwylan disagreed with the statement "I guess this would essentially be the same as asking Americans who Ben Stokes/Virat Kohli is..." @Garry Nelson's Left Foot was asking "do YOU know who he is?" (not "can we deem this man as world famous?"). Asking a...

Yes really. Do you think an American is remotely aware of Ben Stokes or Virat Kohli? Cricket is hugely popular in terms of numbers because it is the national sport of the most populous nation on earth. Do you really think that any of that matters to the average American? When Dale Steyn...

If you even have a passing interest he's by far the most famous baseball player in the world at the moment. If you don't have any interest in baseball then you'll have no chance of knowing who he is. I guess this would essentially be the same as asking Americans who Ben Stokes/Virat Kohli is...

Was originally organised for Bangladesh but with the ongoing protests, they moved it for safety concerns. A crying shame really as it would've been a fantastic host country.

Really like this highlighting of how we’re trying to catch teams before their defence is set. Something we’ve done well so far but not in the second half against Chelsea imo. Interesting that attacking before the defence is set was highlighted as a masterstroke by Emery last night v Bayern...

Don't know if it's been completely ruled out but it would almost certainly have to be rebuilt from the ground up for WSL requirements. The stadium must have a minimum capacity of 4,000 with plans to expand to 5,000 and the demands from broadcasters and media are not what they were when the...

That we now know he's been carrying an injury for a number of games he's played explains a lot. I've been quite shocked at how slow he has seemed at points this season, especially in the Forest game where it looked like he was running up a hill. Hopefully, it's a speedy recovery in all senses!

He missed an entire season with a serious meniscus tear in this period... the bastard. On a serious note, he's one of the most exciting prospects the Albion have ever had, who, unless I've missed something, has always performed at a high-level for us on the pitch. The Instagram stuff is a...

Lot of talk about re-writing history on here so... The below is the first seven games of that last 20... Rather than being solely facetious, I will say that something seemed to click after that (maybe something to do with giving Moises Caicedo his debut - an option he'd had available for the...

Very much this, but I'd also argue that whilst all the above is correct, I think the way he behaved at Chelsea about his time at Brighton ("could've stayed at Brighton and had an easy life"/"I did a good job and left Brighton in a good place" etc.) was as damaging as leaving. At the time, I...

I'm going to one of the Hammersmith gigs in a couple of weeks. Expect to be one of the oldest in the room at the ripe old age of 30. Utterly bizarre bit of security management going on in Lincoln.

At exactly the same time. How do you think the people of England would react if Jude Bellingham said "I've got a big season coming up for Real Madrid so I accept not being allowed to play for England at the Euros"? Think we need to get our heads out of our own arseholes here. He's a kid who is...

Apologies, I've just reread the article where it was stated and my stats don't line up with it. I've amended my original post now. I use this normally and his stats over the past 2 seasons align him with the best in this division at the least. Steele was one of the worst. He's a top quality...

What are you on about Dwayne? 😂 He's a 22 year old keeper who is the current number one for his national team and Premier League side. He is already being linked with a move to Real Madrid to be the long term replacement for Thibaut Courtois. We have clearly got a succession plan in place with...
