Luke 1977 clothes look like it should be sold in Matalan. Oh well, At least it's something a bit different.

It's got to be Simone hasn't it? 

He's great at organising defence.  They've already got good strikers.  I think he's taken Athletico as far as he can, he probably needs a new challenge - Arsenal have money and I'd trust him to spend it. 

I think he'd be a great fit for them but he's the complete antithesis of the approach Arsenal seem to take.

I'd imagine it's Tuchel, especially with the rumors of PSG and Bayern close to appointing him.

I was of the opinion that Bruce would be given the chance in the Premier League if we get there but now i'm not so sure.

I think our runs of poor form after making it to second have really damaged his credibility. He is great when defending a lead but when we need goals his tactics are bordering on the amateurish.

It might have been one team to get us up, one to stay up but I also think that extends to the manager.

Overreactions as far as the eye can see.......

eyes so blue you could swim in them, and that premier league standard hair cut 

Beauty is definitely in the eye of the beholder.....

Thought he did very well. a few iffy moments which is to be expected but all in all a good job.

An absolute country mile better than Neil Taylor against Norwich that's for sure.

Getting tired of this ‘all the strikers’  tactic. It’s yet to work and actually costs us points. Daft.

barkley is ten times better than the backs we have on our roster atm if that's what you mean. but then again, you can easily get by with serviceable running backs anyway.

Yeah, I don't know. I just think an RB makes more sense to me but as you said you can get by with serviceable backs.

yeah switching to a 3-4. it only saves about $2.5m this year but $19m next year and $17m the year after. Will really help in resigning both Collins and Beckham to new deals.

 

It's weird, because they were before this past college season. Suddenly their play drops off a bit and now people seem to be suggesting the class is overrated.

I think we'll take a QB this year, and I've got a sneaking suspicion it'll be Josh Allen. For him more than anyone it would benefit him to sit behind Eli for a year and I think Gettleman will see some similarities to Cam Newton in his game.

How do you think Barkley rates with what the Giants already have? 

Are the QBs in this draft as highly rated in their position as Barkley seems to be?

If I was the Giants GM (i'd be out of a job) i'd probably take Barkley and look to draft a QB next year.

So been back at the gym a few times since this post. Back has been absolutely fine. Not felt a thing.

But I'd still avoided Deadlifts totally. Done other back work, but not those.

Tried them yesterday for the first time. Stayed light, the most I lifted was 25kg short of what I'd been lifting before, and 50kg short of my old PB. But I could feel my back hurting. Didn't pull anything, but could just feel it. So I stopped immediately.
But today it's killing me again. Nothign like last time, but it's obviously not right.

 

So I think I'm going to have to knock deadlifts on the head for a while.

Anybody know of any decent alternatives that might not put as much strain on my lower back?

Does your gym have a hex bar? You could also potentially try sumo deadlifts?

They put less strain on the lower back than conventional I think.

Tyrann Mathieu released.

Very poor for all concerned last night.

Lethargic performance, poor tactics and substitutions.

I expect a reaction on Saturday.

Anyone know how he did?

Started off nervously, miss-placed his first couple of passes but then absolutely mullered someone. My mate thinks he's class.

Scotty Hogan, so bad they named him twice.

Starting today for Grimsby.

having a club and a super agent who represents them are completely different though.  

I said 'kind of'.

It is a similar model, but yes, Wolves are getting better players than Watford did.

Wolves are kind of following the Watford model.

Instead of having a top Italian club as a feeder team to get out of the Championship Wolves are using a top Portuguese agent to do so.

It is no secret we are one of the clubs, lets be honest 

He is talking specifically about Wolves. 

What we have done is nothing compared to how they are manipulating the market.

Can't even get the bloody thing to be stable since the latest update. Constant crashes.

I've never had issues with Football Manager like this before apart from the odd one here or there. This one just won't go more than few days in game without crashing.

Was funny towards the end where he lost his rag with the lady on the tannoy.

How has he been?

Hasn't played a game for them yet apparently. Went on loan to them injured....

Theft and I love it!
