Webster was in contention for Player of the Season before his injury but I cannot see any reason to rush him back. Veltman has been terrific at CB and Potter is never one to risk players to greater injuries

I'm not sure we will see a big outlay for a first team player for a while. We will spend on either a talented youngster for the future or grab an experienced player for free. We will probably only have 1 decent outlay per season all the time Potter is here as we continue to buy young and develop...

The stat is actually Man United, Liverpool, Everton, Arsenal, Tottenham, Chelsea & BHA have never been relegated from the premier league. Brighton are the only side who have been promoted to the premier league but not relegated

Gross is the sort of player that we would regularly have in the squad. He is technically very good and reliable, but he isn't likely to ever have any resale value to us so will forever be a player who is moved around and used to fill in gaps left by injuries. A fantastic squad player who has...

The light comes on with around 40 miles left and my journey to work is about 35 miles round trip. When the light comes on I fill up on my way home, always at the same petrol station. The only exception is when I've a long journey to do and I just fill it up

I much prefer last season's kit

Robertson & Tierney are good but I'm happier with Shaw & Chillwell

Same as vs Newcastle. Sanchez White, Dunk, Veltman Gross, Bissouma, Lallana, Moder Trossard Maupay, Welbeck

Another sign of how tactics and style can make some players look incredible and others woeful. Werner has lost confidence as the pressure builds but clearly he demonstrated it previously as he was hot property a few years ago

Ironically no side has drawn more games than us over the last 4 seasons since we have been in the premier league. If it were just 2 points for a win we would be higher in the table

14 points making our 2021 form 33 points from 22 games

Very excited, there were plenty of drivers working their way up the grid during last season. Max Verstapen will be a world champion sooner or later and a big rule change season is as good as any

Watford & Bournemouth may spend big to remain in the league so I'd rather both of those stayed in the Championship, happy with any of the others as I feel they would have very limited spending power

I appreciate that there are several players that many fans have never seen play for us live. Sanchez, Lamptey, Veltman, White, Karbownik, Lallana, Moder, MacAllister, Wellbeck, Tau & Zeqiri. Equally many players have improved hugely over the last 12 months. The squad are beginning to...

It has prompted almost a new system every match. Having played 20+ games as as a back 5 we transitioned to a back 4 and kept adjusting the shape of our midfielders and strikers. Then Vs Newcastle we only field 3 defenders and position two central midfielders in wider positions where they are...

There have been many occasions where we have been on top and not scored a second goal, several times we have been ahead and naive defending has cost us a win. I wrote at the start of the season that progress would look like more than 10 wins and less than 10 draws, until we reach that level of...

The table looks very comforting

It seemed to be a well drilled 3-5-2 with the two strikers moving wide to create space for any of the 5 to appear through the middle. What was most impressive was when Veltman or White joined in attacking due to the positioning of Bissouma & Lallana

I'm not so sure we need a striker. Similar to not needing another central midfielder but we then signed Moder & Caicedo, equally we were awash with CB's yet Veltman was available and could be our POTS. We may sign a promising youngster or an experienced pro for peanuts but I cannot see a £30m...

I expect a similar scenario to play out this summer. We identify a couple of young potential targets in the region of £15m-£20m and hope to bring one in sharing showreels of our fantastic build up play. They may choose to go elsewhere like Nunez did but no longer will we panic buy any random...
