    Horrible performance and horrible result. Gareth has enough credit in the bank at present so that the people above don’t need discuss his successor yet. However, I do think he’ll need a decent World Cup showing because if we have an early exit, then a decision needs to be made. I don’t personally like him but he has done a lot of good and his results by and large during his tenure have been very good. Let’s see what happens from September onwards.

    I suppose his place in the World Cup squad is already guaranteed and that’s why he’s with them right now. There’s probably only four or five places up for grabs and that’s why he’s looking at Bowen this evening. Personally, I’d have Foden on the pitch.
  3. ferguson1
    Don’t think Foden has played any minutes at all, so perhaps not fit? I guess he needed to take a look at Bowen after the season he’s had but he doesn’t look good enough for a World Cup squad.
  4. ferguson1
    I wouldn’t disagree, as I would rather see Foden and/or Grealish on the pitch ahead of him. Even Saka on the right if need be and Grealish left.

    It’s sad but you’re not wrong unfortunately.

    It’s not been a great start for Bowen has it? He’s had an amazing season but nothing going right so far.

    Booing has started. Booing aside, Mings should have been in this squad.
  8. ferguson1
    Really pleased for you

    You may think a lot of our fans and fans of other clubs are “clueless” when it comes to judging midfielders but that doesn’t mean that your right. It’s your opinion and that’s fine but perhaps don’t be so patronising of others.

    Total, total nonsense post. His performance was below par for the standards that he has set already. Absolutely plain to see. I also didn’t say that he had a bad game nor was I criticising him. He looked tired! I think quite a few of us can have an opinion that is valid without it being constantly questioned or at times posters attempting to ridicule. Your final paragraph isn’t worth answering. I’ll leave it there.

    It was clearly evident last night that Ramsey was tired and he did nothing of note whilst on the pitch. It’s not about who was better or who stood out more, his performance alone was below par. He’s just had a brilliant season but clearly needs to recharge his batteries for a couple of weeks before preseason.
  12. ferguson1
    I actually thought Ramsey looked really tired last night before he came off. Wasn’t closing the opposition down or making any trademark runs in advance of our forward. Probably fatigue after a long season. A good couple of weeks rest now will do him the world of good. I also don’t agree that he should be part of the senior England squad right now. Maybe next season if his form continues to grow but we’ll see.

    I hear ya. My worry is by the time he lifts the World Cup in December, we’ll be seeing these images of him bringing it back……

    Have suggested Jesus a few times but surely he’s more likely to join Arsenal. Would love it if he came to us though.

    Finley Thorndike being released is a slight surprise. Didn’t we chase him and he only joined us in September last year? Perhaps he hasn’t shown enough?
  16. ferguson1
    As you say, we were left with hardly anything. At least we’re bringing in money for our squad players now, rather than releasing ageing players on a free.
  17. ferguson1
    When we came up we needed to pad out the squad and some were a gamble obviously. I think we signed ten players that summer? Trez was ok in parts, scored a couple of good goals but clearly wasn’t the standard required to be a regular starter. Cost approx £8m and we’ll make a small loss no doubt. If we can get £3/4m back, I think that’s ok.
  18. ferguson1
    If we sell Davis (which is likely), how would people feel about starting the season with just Watkins, Ings and Archer (if he doesn’t go out again on loan) as our striker options? Personally, I think we need another one. Who that is I don’t know but plenty to choose from I imagine, ie Richarlison, Jesus, Isak, David, Depay, Kean, Barbosa, Jovic, Bellotti etc. Most have been discussed on here already but are there any others that may interest us?

    I picked up a bargain last week. Someone local was selling some Nike Blazer Jumbo for £30 (new & boxed), as didn’t like them. Their JD Sport receipt was still in the box and they had paid £100 with a gift card at the start of the year. Didn’t even seem to have been tried on because the laces hadn’t been done up? Really comfy and quite light. I’m chuffed with them.

    He was always going to go with Phillips and Rice together again.
  21. ferguson1
    Totally agree. Another 2 or 3 of real quality at the most now I reckon.
  22. ferguson1
    Frightening. So hard to compete with the big six.
  23. ferguson1
    I agree on this.
  24. ferguson1
    I honestly can’t see Davis playing for PSG or Juventus anytime soon, so the upgrade is clear to see.
  25. ferguson1
    Nope! But would be a useful option off the bench and cover for injuries etc.
