Is this just someone’s Christmas wishlist, or are there potential links? There’s noise in the press today about Mainoo wanting a loan since he’s not getting game time under Amorim. He’s linked with Napoli not us in the press but you’d think we’d be interested if it was possible and it’s probably a ...

Ultimately he’s no worse than Beto and he has the bonus of potentially getting better so he should get majority of minutes until we decide to cut our losses and sell him back to spain

He needs a start and the chance to grow into a game - it’s hard coming on with ten minutes to show what you can do

Both of those Forest “goals” were [emoji6[emoji640][emoji637]][emoji[emoji6[emoji640][emoji638]][emoji640][emoji6[emoji640][emoji638]]]/[emoji6[emoji640][emoji637]][emoji[emoji6[emoji640][emoji638]][emoji640][emoji6[emoji640][emoji638]]] so in a weird way I guess it’s fair to disallow one

He’s our best sitting midfielder, even if he does have faults. He’s sadly probably also our best RB. He’s also very rarely injured and can do ninety minutes week in week out - very good buy for what he cost. All the issues people have with Garner are because they want him to be something that he isn...

It's the total of xG of the opponents in the matches that you've had so far - so calculated the same way as xG

I think this is the first Madrid game I've watched since they got Alonso, are they always so massively open at the back?

Did we ever get our option to buy fee confirmed?

I noticed the option is only thirty million when playing the new Football Manager and they’re usually pretty accurate - I had it in my head the news at the time said fifty million

We need to find a way to get him and Grealish playing closer to each other, they’re levels above everyone else in the side.

Either Grealish CAM to be closer to a wide Ndiaye or even Ndiaye as a ST given our other options seem poor and we have a shiny new RW on the bench

Sure but pacey wingers wouldn't mean either would suddenly have adequate hold up play. A lack of pace is an issue too, but it doesn't excuse either's lack of skill in that department. Hold up play is a lot easier when you’re under less pressure is my point. The pass quality and opposition defence p...

The Wayne Rooney version!

I feel like having two strikers who are incapable of basic hold up play is gaslighting us in to thinking playing direct balls is some archaic unworkable style of football. You look at Palace and they're the most direct team in the league by a mile, the number of passes they take per chance creation...

Gana needs dropping before Garner, at this point he’s basically a pressing CAM and we can’t afford to just have one midfielder in there

Think mykolenko is an even bigger problem on the left myself. He’s terrible, and with Grealish hugging the touchline it means he’s coming infield with the ball and it’s horrible to watch. Don’t even think he’s good at defending anymore. Would much rather see Brathwaite in getting the ball in that p...
