  1. Southgate said some nice things about Jack today. How come nobody’s talking about?
  2. I was around 9 or 10 then and I remember in school we were having back and thought banter with Man U fans as they were the closest rivals then. They eventually resorted to a racist chant due to the number of black players in the team. Clearly they had learnt that chant from someone older. Little f**kers. Keeping on topic that was some team we had. So close to winning the league.
  3. 4 substitutions and he still played 90 minutes. Sounds like he has become a key player in the heart of midfield.
  4. It’s not racist, far from it. But I kind of get the OPs sentiment. One day in a ideal world we won’t need to celebrate history or people based on colour because such a time would have past where it wouldn’t be clouded by a recent history of oppression and discrimination. We’ll all be deemed equal and live that way. But that is way way in the future and we’ll all be long gone by the time that day comes.
  5. Nah. It’s more to protect the club init. He’s shit sell him, he’s decent extend the option and give him a year to impress or get a fee for him.
  6. I have my own theory so I’ll check it out. edit: can’t find the thread.
  7. I have a feeling we will beat Leicester but drop points against Leeds.
  8. The amount of money you’ve made in players in recent years you must be the richest club in the championship!
  9. If I recall correctly we couldn’t even afford a pot to piss in when we signed SJM.
  10. That’s true but one of the big differences are South Asians don’t make it as footballers otherwise our national team would be even more representative of past colonialism. Like the cricket team is. But that’s a different topic altogether.
  11. Great French teams too. To be fair the England teams is very multicultural as well. edit: took Germany a while but the team is a good representation of the country now.
  12. This is how I feel. Whilst we have players all over the pitch that are massively important to us i do think losing either Mings or Konsa would be the most costly. Injurys make or break season for clubs that are expected to be in a relegation battle. Look at Bournemouth, didn’t they have a ridiculous injury list in the middle of last season? Such small margins in this league.
  13. Can you imagine the reaction of fans if we signed a player for 2m?
  14. Spot on. It’s pretty much the sub that is made nearly every game for most teams. The wide players in a 433 are the game changers. You need 4 of them.
  15. I don’t think it will happen but if did maybe it’s because the club are thinking beyond this season and do not want him to end up at a Premier League rival. With the amount of attacking players West Ham have he probably has more chance of featuring for us than them.
  16. Any top attacking player should be able to really. Yes they will always have a preference but switching sides now and then shouldn’t be that much of a big deal.
  17. Have to admit I thought he looked fine in the short time he played so I was surprised by this post. If anything he seemed to be trying a little too hard and a bit selfish. So I had a quick read of other posts and seems like others thought he looked fine too. I think you’re on your own with this one mate.
  18. I don’t want him to start so he’s fresh for Saturday but I’d be happy to see him get a few minutes just so it means he is not carrying an injury!
  19. I don’t get why you’re so against King. Much better player than El Ghazi in my opinion.
  20. Currently the team picks it self. Only decision Smith has to make at the moment is Trez or Traoré. We need more quality in the squad but I agree with others that any big signings will be for next summer.
