Lo Celso is a superbly gifted player, technically exactly the type of player Emery seems to love. Im not really saying we should or shouldnt be in for him as a squad player, but he is technically superb and i have personally thought he has looked very good whenever i have seen him play for spurs. maybe he is inconsistent and not overly good at times, dunno, but when i have seen him, he is very easy on the eye.

so Leeds can only max out at 93 points now. Ipswich on 89 points, with 3 to play for them. Ipswich's to throw away i guess?

seems we are just after midgets this summer.

VAR isnt the problem, it works just fine in other sports and could work great in football. The problem is the astronomic levels of incompetence of the bodies and people implementing it. You can have the best system in the world, but if its implemented by incompetent idiots, its going to be terrible.

just wait for the VT'ers saying he is clearly good enough to challenge Watkins and should stay in the squad to be able to prove himself and be the main striker backup, cus "he's good enough".
-
no way. good player, but for 100m, nope. We need to be finding these players before they are a 100m player, we arent really in a position to be spunking 100m on players i dont think.

they didnt have Palmer versus Arsenal, i assume he will be back for us?
-
i would love Olise, he is quality, but i would guess he would spunk most of our budget, so probably not a good signing with that in mind. However, we need to be finding these players before they command 60m+, ie: like Palace did with Eze and Olise for a combined 20m ish, or Spam did with Bowen (18m ish), or Leicester did with Maddison, Mahrez, Kante etc etc. also ie:, hopefully like we have with Rogers. I can see us getting some leftfield signings this summer, mixed in with some "normal" ones.

thats a good point! it is a huge achievement in itself (Europa League), in a way its just that we have done so well in the last 18 months we are all hoping for CL, but if you step back, Europa league is a massive, massive achievement in of itself, its just our....expectations?.....have peaked a bit. to think where we were in Oct/Nov 2022 compared to now, its like an alternate universe.

tbf ye it would, so i guess that is pointless. i guess the only difference then would be more money for finishing 5th versus 6th.
-
Mathematically yes. but Manure would need to average 2.6 PPG just to match our current point total of 66 points. However, due to the GD, they would need 67 to overtake us, so thats actually 2.8 PPG to reach 67 points. i think its almost certain that Manure cant get 2.8 PPG for their final 5 games, thats 14 points, and would actually need 5 wins, as you cant not win them all and average 2.8ppg, and thats assuming we dont pick up even 1 more point before the end of the season. i would say 5th is the lowest we can finish. hopefully i havent set Manure up for a 5 game winning run and we collapse to 4 losses......as thats really the only way they can overtake us.
-
We didn't pay 15m though, we paid 8m with add ons up to 15m. I would guess we will end up paying most of those add ons though tbf.
-
While I agree in principle, even if we bought a RB, we would still only have that right back and cash. I guess it's all down to whether emery thinks hayden or kosta ned are ready to be backup and compete for the position with the new RB.
-
So this new contract wasnt really a new contract, it was the triggering of the 1 optional year that was part of the agreement when Emery joined. I would guess that they both have to agree to the extension, though, so all good i guess. Would be nice to see a new long term contract in the summer!

he's not asking for the lead actors in Last of the Summer Wine mate.
