  1. I was thinking that myself along with if that guy actually does work for who he claims, he's on his last day there.
  2. I thought he did very well last night. He kept things ticking over very nicely, played a few very nice passes and thumped in a cracking goal. There is a caveat, of course. And that is who he was facing and how much time and space they gave him and other players. Can he play like that when he has much less time and space to move the ball to a player who will have less time and space to receive the ball? Maybe we should just play him against Wolves because they seem scared of him. They all just parted like the Red Sea when he waltzed through them.
  3. Whilst we are on the subject, I think we have seen illustrated a new concept in theoretical physics that is the same - and by it's nature totally different, as it has to be - as Schrodinger's Cat. We have Delphinho's Squib, which is a firecracker transfer that is simultaneously happening imminently but also a trombone waw-waw-waw about the same player we haven't even enquired about. Just joshing @Delphinho123
  4. TBH, though, history tells us that Tumbleweed Thursdays are more eventful than Delphinho Wilderness Wednesdays.
  5. Anyone else wondering if Kendra has a hanging cockscomb like Hope Solo? Come on. Don't lie, yes you are.
  6. No, just you. The internet sexism police are not **** about anymore.
  7. Just had a thought. If they are only showing it from this angle with one camera it's going to really suck.
  8. *Cough*VPNWithAUKServerWhichIsJustAboutAllDecentVPNs*Cough.
  9. Showing as starting @01:00 so hopefully we'll have no connection or streaming issues https://www.mnufc.com/post/2019/07/16/live-stream-mnufc-vs-aston-villa-international-friendly
  10. You couldn't write this stuff. Oh wait, you don't ever need to write these tired, sad, cringe-inducing Bruceism cliches because the absolute utter word removed will utter them at absolutely every opportunity.
  11. 56lbs? **** hell, that's the same as a farm sack of potatoes. He's gonna get mullered.
  12. I was thinking along those lines myself, the more cultured the defender the fewer "tackles" you see them making perhaps. By their measurement of "tackles", if we are reading it right, I'd imagine midfielders have far higher numbers. Maybe.
  13. I'd go in even harder. Show them the video then:
  14. Yeah, it's going to be positively...
  15. I'm looking forward to seeing another player in our colours who can mug players off. That was taking the piss, I loved it. An outrageous flick and the just shielded the guy out until he got him so frothy and petulant he threw him down.
  16. Your point is right but even more so than you're saying because AFAIK Tyrone is 6' 5". We'll know for sure soon enough but I'm pretty sure we'll see he's still the tallest guy in the team, even with the recent addition of a couple more big ****.
  17. I'm the same. I'm just not excited by this one at all. If he was costing **** all, I'd be thinking "What the hell. We can take plenty of £1m gambles on some squad players who may come good but for the money he seemingly is going to cost...I dunno. I guess the management know much better than I do and hopefully I'm wrong but he vibes flop to me.
  18. No, it's not surprising that we've committed to the level of spending shown so far. Anything less would likely mean our stay in the Prem would be just for a season - i.e. literally doing a Fulham by not doing a Fulham. And it's worth noting that the suggestion of "a total gross spend of near £150m", and it's a matter of opinion whether that is astonishing or not, isn't likely a gross net spend now. Rather, it's a commitment to spend that on a number of assets across a payment period negotiated for each one. Potentially, some assets will appreciate in value and may be sold at a profit before we've even fully paid for them which could mean they've effectively cost us nothing at all. For example, if we sell El Ghazi next year to, say, newly-promoted Brentford or Bristol City for £30m (), not only will we possibly not have even paid the final installment on him at that point and not only will he have cost us nothing, we'll actually make on the deal.
  19. Well, I have to say that even if his knee is baked meringue, he looks pretty damn fit there. What's even more impressive is how much Jack has grown in the last few weeks. By my reckoning going by that shot he must now be 6' 7" and over 15st because he's dwarfing Chester in the foreground.
  20. Fortunately, Great Barrdiola doesn't believe in defending leads. He believes in attacking leads.
  21. Not mad at all. We're now managed by The Great Barr Guardiola.
