True, could be a back up incase it doesn't work out. Doubt we'd need both though.

Just checked and he is that berk. Also, can't imagine we need another CB with terry.

Is he the berk who deflected Gollini's clearance in to the goal at home to them for the 1-1 draw?

We do need to sort the GK position too, I know there's talk of Sam Johnstone coming back but either way it would be better to get it sorted for preseason.

Wow, that's awesome, I never even considered that could be why. thanks.

but... I always find it strange that this meme is the one often seen, but it's a mirrored version of the original when Grampa walks in from the right. "Is your name Bart?"

True, he's only 36 but they've worked him like a dog.

I know it's a bit ridiculous but Iker Casillas is out of contract from Porto at the end of June, he's 36... which isn't too old for a 'keeper really, and we could give him a decent offer since there's not transfer fee. I doubt it, but you never know. Valdez went to Boro, but that was after PL promotion.

Sounds like rubbish. I doubt we'll hear until the first as JT is still contracted to CFC until then.

No you shut up.

Yeah but now we've got John Terry (probably).

Hull h Cardiff a Reading a Norwich h Bristol a Brentford h Middlesbrough h Barnsley a Notts Forest h That's the first 9 fixtures, and it's a long old season, but that would represent just under 20% of our season. I think we should be able to get perhaps 6-7 wins out of that, all the home games, and one or two of the away, and then draw one or two, and perhaps lose one or two. So... that would be around 22 points, I think that's doable if we hit the ground running.

@sne @Grasshopper That's a good point you both make. I just feel like if we had Jedi in the team it would take the defensive responsibility from the more attacking players... but I see what you mean; if we play that way we have 6 defending and 4 attacking outfield players. I'm glad I'm not a manager.

As others have said regarding a 'back 3', I would work on a line up of; GK? Chester Terry Baker Bree Taylor Jedi Adomah Lansbury Hourihane Kodjia Use Bree and Taylor as wide full backs, when attacking, but have them fall back and support the back three when defending. Use Mile as a holding CM who support the back three by dropping back when defending. Which would allow the three midfielders to be more attacking and be supported by the wingbacks, and let Kodjia thrive.
