Yeah sure, that's a yellow but Estupian's was not...

We've certainly created more chances but have failed to get a shot on target.

Had to vlbe a yellow that from estupian.

He really does look shakey with just about everything he does.

Do my eyes deceive me or did Miggy just cross with his right foot!?

Man, we could be 2 up here...

Not going to bother with VPN, Paramount Plis has the rights in the US.

20 years since we qualified for the champion's league and I'm overseas for our first game. Paramount Plus streaming here I come!

That's a fucking great price for current Salah. I suppose for them only if they have someone else lind up.

Happy 50th mate.

Was just thinking "suck it" to Castore given they've still got the remainder of the season to run on their contract with all this Adidas fanfare going on as though we've just won the lottery whilst living in poverty. Then I realised I'm sat here in the Castore Limited edition Classic shirt and a Castore team jacket. In my defense I don't often wear gear but it was some sort of national jersey day today so I wore it when collecting my kids from school.

Up front? Bold, I like it.

It's this. He's working towards a system that is not overly reliant on any one player. I don't think that works against the tougher teams as you need to give your best players the chance to be at their creative best.

You'd not give Hall a run out at LB, don't think Livramento has played much on the left so it would be switching Trips to the left. I wouldn't mind seeing Livramento in midfield on the right, I think it would work well with his size and skill but I can see Howe persisting with Miggy and Murphy doesn't deserve to lose his substitute position.

We bottled it after a freakish bit of bad luck (though you could say don't turn your back on the ball). It was compounded because once they got that goal we no longer had our strongest team out there and being obligated to push for the winner another error resulted in them having a load of space.

I have no doubt you'll be thor when they're finished with you.

*muffled sound from within coffin* it's ok, I was just pwayng dead

Ciao bellissima!

We didn't qualify for the Champions League in order to play games against Europa League opposition. Great baptism of fire coming up, plenty to prove and little to lose.

Isn't he still accusing us of cheating there by saying we are immune from the plight other teams are facing of having their players bought by the Saudi Pro League (for 'mega-money')?

That's Rubbish. In his early years for us he was notably better than a load of midfielders who have played for us over the last 20 years. You must be forgetting some of the shit we've had; Geremi, Alan Smith, Butt, Guthrie, Gonzales, Gosling, Amalfitano, Colback, Saivet, Marveaux, Bigirimana etc.

They must have only wanted to pay a paltry part of his wages you'd have to assume for it to not have been agreed. A bit disappointing what has happened with Hayden, he was really a promising talent with an attacking threat and excellent at breaking up play, played well with both feet and never got stuck with his head down. Only 28 so hopefully he gets over his injury issues and finds a team to leave a mark on so he can piss off and we can put his wages to better use.

He's not played CB in a good while and was moved there after 70 minutes as a fullback where you have to cover a lot more ground. I'm more critical of Howe for that than I am of Burn.
