  1. and for a rest, at a guess its the full backs in our system that cover the most ground, sprint the most, tackle the most etc.
  2. i could easily see him rotated for Zaniolo if we want to setup a different way. Bailey certainly more useful if we want a goal.
  3. id say its probably safer to see Moreno play the last 30 minutes in both games. Rather than starting rusty. Other options are to use the centre backs in a back 3 of shift Torres left.
  4. would tweak a few, we need more than an 11 else the drop off is too big when players need to come in. Carlos, Tielemans, Bailey have to start. Would have loved some rest for the full backs but dont think its possible.
  5. Suspect it makes little difference. Banks will all report billions of profit this year. Those people were getting paid In dividends, share options, employed by international arms of the same companies. It's a bad look and I'm sure will get air time. Pointlessly
  6. My feeling as well. The reality is it's actually only a small amount of people that receive these obscene bonus' it's a policy that doesn't warrant the media attention it gets. More tax in the coffers is a good think and as other have said, transparency about what constitutes reward is more important. I very much doubt that any of these bankers are worse off as a result of this policy.
  7. I think it would be 2 of Buendia, Mcginn, Ramsey, Zaniola, Bailey, Tielemans. That for me is brilliant depth and really allows you to think about the way to setup against any team.
  8. Yep, always respect other people's opinions and I also think VP should be a place for everyone.
  9. Dont think I agree. Everyone shouting and screaming at a player doesn't make for a great atmosphere to play in. My favourite atmospheres have always been supportive not aggressive.
  10. yesterday was classic Ollie. Missed the easy chance that he created, scores a classic Ollie goal by showing pace, skill and a great finish on his wrong foot.
  11. the only thing that could change is if the club received a decent offer. Feels unlikely considering age and injury profile but a 10-15m may tempt the club.
  12. makes sense, for your mums situation we buy small compostable bin liners. If you shop at the co op, there bags are also compostable so make a good substitute. It is odd how different policies are applied in different parts of the country. Even within 10 miles of my house, areas how different collection schedules and different bins. Definitely get the challenge of the elderly. If you have enough waste for one small bin, it makes no sense.
  13. What do you do today with your food scraps and why dont they lead to mould, disease and stench? I dont see how a dedicated bin is not better, certainly is for us. You pop a compostable bin liner into the bin, you empty it into a larger bin outside, it gets picked up once a week.
  14. hes a goal threat certainly. sometimes the goals may not feel too important but his goal at Palace and his involvement yesterday really helped us kill the game off. I think being able to bring a player like him off your bench at home is a sign of a great squad. He also played both sides yesterday, something else thats not often given the credit it should get. Im very happy with him.
  15. wouldnt be surprised if this is something about nothing and he starts on Thursday. A knock after an international game and a social media clean up because hes changed agency or something like that. Sometime i think we want something to be bad because everything else is going well.
  16. Maybe, im not convinced ive seen Konsa play as well with Mings next to him. Konsa has commented similar that Mings being unavailable he led to him taking more responsibility. I just wish we had Mings and Pau available. Certainly we have games where it would have been great to pick, or play Pau at left back.
  17. my son had a similar move. He didnt really struggle with the language at first, it was more the anger. He not really seen a fully grown adult act like he wanted to kill someone over a mis placed pass or a ref giving a throw in the wrong way. I remember him feeling really threatened, that is the type of thing that needs to be somehow controlled for me. Its something probably unique to football, odd having to explain to a child that he doesnt really need to worry about the idiot contorted in rage spitting and screaming.
  18. i feel the same and i think its something club should enforce. If youve gone to the trouble of going into a family friendly stand, then language and anger needs to be moderated. If the club is serious about attracting a different fan base, this is important to fix. Else they will simply keep adjusting to price until theyve removed the groups that they want to.
  19. I think it's horses for courses. Zaniola was excellent first half and brought some much needed physicality. Bailey is great to bring on when the game is stretched and the defence tired. Wonder if we'll see Bailey vs Luton to play much wider.
  20. Confused by this, we've had food waste bins for years. As small one in the house and then a large one outside, comfortably enough for a week or twos waste. We just use the compostable bags, all works quite well and stops the big bin from stinking
  21. The things i would expect: 1. discredit labour policies 2. target Starmer as someone with no experience and an unproven leader 3. Attempt to highlight things they perceive to have gone well (vaccination support, some brexit deals, support for Israel/Ukraine 4. Promise some classic tory policies 5. Target some policies they believe latent labour supporters believe to be important (were not going to push Ulez down your throats, we'll debate the BBC license fee, etc).
  22. i think too much is made of the honeymoon thing, many players are called up and dont feature, im sure thats frustrating for the players but equally they will be well aware that this is highly possible but being around the squad allows them the chance to impress. Bouba could have said no, im sure it would have been understood. The other option was Deschamps calling up someone in his place and giving them that opportunity. Surely thats a harsher outcome for Kamara.
  23. That's the reality of the situation. Kane plays, we have one more slot for Toney, Wilson, Watkins, DCL dependant on form and fitness. It's tough on Watkins but England are very well stocked in the front line.
  24. He's 23 and has stats we love from our loan players. Wonder if he ever gets a chance.
  25. I saw. I'm an ST so would just be the top up. The photos looked quite busy though, hope the later kick off gets a few more in.
