That's not really a big claim though is it. I'm struggling to think of a worse one-on-one finisher than DCL tbh. DCL puts himself about and wins plenty in the air, but put him through on goal one-on-one and he'll miss 99 times out of a hundred. DCL used to be ok at one on ones but now seems to have...

Yes I get it, hence me making a joke about you feeling remorse back.

I think I said Beto would be on for double figures this season during his scoring streak. I didn’t realise my words would come back to haunt me so much. Feel terrible here. As you've replied twice now to that then I can definitely see there's genuine remorse. Don't worry there's always next season ...

BTW my lawn is a patchy nightmare at the moment, thanks to that winning combination of loads of moss (which I've removed by scarifying) and loads of local wood pigeons (who are helpfully removing all the grass seed I sow). I re-seeded mine a few weeks ago... Bought scare tape and then strung a load...

Im not saying you are lying per se, just that you will fixate on something and flog it to death regardless of any contrary evidence. There's no contrary evidence... I've had the Beto argument numerous times so I remember what was said and what I argued against. You don't, but think you can say I'm ...

How would I do that? I don't keep a log of who said what FFS

Feel free to trawl the Beto thread if you want.

You are arguing (again) with brick walls.

Ok so you're calling me a liar? What have I got to gain by making that up?

I tell you what, just stop replying to anything I type and I'll do likewise.

Bull. Shit. Well no, just because you can't remember something doesn't make it bull shit. It's been said on more than one occasion by more than one person. You can dismiss it, doesn't make any difference to me, but you calling something you don't remember or didn't read doesn't make it bull shit.

Moyes is a cautious manager, he may well think it's better for JOBs development to not play CB alongside another young CB because it risks him having a poor game and affecting his confidence. I would fully expect if Branthwaite was out we'd see JOB alongside Tarks, but wouldn't be at all surprised t...

You can say that again.

Honestly don't get that....I've not seen anyone saying anything of the sort.

Don't know how you missed that, it's been said numerous times on here until he proved it to be completely untrue.

V important goals this year. Will go on to be fine somewhere. We just need a more complete striker. Yes no doubt those goals were massive, but it's a small number of games he's been of use, and really that's quite damning of a £25m signing. But I do appreciate those goals and his impact in them, he...

You can’t guarantee any player will perform though. Beto has a good record, is strong and quick so it’s easy to see why we thought he was worth taking the risk on. Sounds like gykorees and the lad at dortmund were our main targets but we didn’t have the resources. He hasn’t really been that bad. He...

I’m with Brap2 too (echo… echo) And with everyone else. Yes we love the Il-Man and he is exciting etc etc, but if we are discussing bad signings and Maupay it is worth looking at why he was signed in the first place. Also if we love Ndiaye and hate Maupay it is interesting to question the metrics w...

It wasn't a black mark though, at the time the decision was either a 1 in 3 Serie A striker, free in his first season, or literally not signing a striker. It was that desperate. Remember what it was like at the time, with DCL injured. Imagine had we signed no one, there would have been a revolt. We...
