I like Luiz. Think he is a good player with bags of potential. But how many teams would honestly pay 20m plus for him ? Would he improve any of the current premier league teams that much?

I disagree. Expect him to eventually be at a top 4 club.

They’ve got other more important areas to fill such as a new striker and a new centre half. I don’t think they will spend 30 million on Luiz just yet.

I’d say Benrahma is a good example too. Class act that is going to have a massive future. Brentford valuation didn’t get met so he didn’t go anywhere. Now they are looking very likely to be promoted and he has played a massive part in that.

I’m normally positive. But let’s be realistic. We know there ain’t a chance in hell we are staying up!

Sorry i thought we were talking about current top 6. Spurs we should have got something out of both games against them.

Liverpool aside which we got a lot of credit for. When did we play well and narrowly lose against a top 6 side? edit: I get where you are coming from though. I just think we’ve been comfortabley beaten in most games against top 6 teams this season. City away was a decent effort to be fair.

Still don’t think we’ll sell him. As I said doesn’t seem the kind of lad that will want to jump ship if we go down and can’t see a premier league club paying big money for him either. He’ll be with us next season.

Didn’t see Arsenal game but the stats look like it was a bit of a smash and grab. 32% possession, 2 shots on target, 2 goals. Liverpool 9 shots on target.

A hell of a lot of fans were very vocal about the loan market being used to develop other teams players. Whilst nobody wants to see us do that if it means the difference between relegation or staying up I think the idea should at least be considered. Purslow seems like the type of guy that ensures he always says what’s the fans want to hear. Wouldn’t suprise me if it was ultimately his decision that there would be no loan signings. He seems to make it quite clear we wouldn’t loan players anymore. Id be suprised if Smith supported it. As a coach you would want to coach the best players regardless of if are on loan or not. I bet he wouldn’t have been complaining about having Tammy and Axel in the team last season.

Maybe for his position. The player recognised as the best are normally the games changers like Benrahma and Pereira.

Because I know you have also lived here and it’s the only country I have ever lived in so it’s a comparison I could understand. Apart from the right wing government and the racists that put them in to power it does sound great to be fair. edit: btw not being sarcy. Genuinely sounds like a really nice place to live.

Genuinely interested to know what’s so ‘great’ about it compared to say the UK?

I’ve since found out his name is ‘Fred the Flour Grader‘

That’s the one! Him and Mr Benn! No wonder I was confused about why Uncle Ben was seen as racist.

I just googled Uncle Ben and all this time I was thinking of someone else. A cartoon character that is the brand for curry’s. Where’s a black hat. I can’t for the life of me remember his name though. Can someone help me?

Sorry didn’t meant to compare. I just wanted to tell my story

Shocking! At least in my story the teacher told me to get out and the guy who just got beat up by me got in to further trouble.

That’s the most shocking part. Maybe he’s just too stupid to understand how wrong he was! No where near as bad as what was sent to Zaha but I have a little story. I was around 15 and I was in an RE class. (The irony).There was a lad sat in front of me. He was a bit of a geek, kept himself to himself, never really bothered anyone. He turned around and looked at me with a big grin on his face and said ‘hello p**i’. Now bear in mind id known him for around 4 years and whilst not a mate I was in quite a few classes with him. It was completely out of character and out the blue. I was shocked! Anyway I started beating him up there and then and the teacher broke it up. He was in tears Point being he had no idea what he had done wrong. He honestly thought it was light hearted banter and was shocked by my reaction! I doubt he meant any malice at all. Some kids just haven’t got a clue.

Put it on plate for Trez and Davis. One wont ever get a better chance for a premier league hatrick and the other won’t get a better chance for a premier league goal.

Yeh he’s f**ked up but he’s just a kid. He’ll hopefully understand how bad his actions were and learn from it. It’s probably not going to be safe for him until things calm down though.

If Southamptons performance v City anything to go by they want to finish the season on a high. Plus Ings wants golden boot.

I said before I don’t think they are as bad as their position suggests. They’ve had horrendous injuries this season. Even worse than us. They will still believe they can stay up and rightly so.

Could we end up in a situation where by the time we play West Ham they are safe but if we beat them and Watford fail to beat Arsenal we stay up! This is what will happen.
