  1. Same. I’ve had to be carried off the pitch in agony with hamstrings. But playing again in 4-6 weeks. But Coutinho could really do without hamstring issues at this stage of his career. Good news if it’s not more serious though.
  2. This is a perfect time to test archer for half an hour.
  3. We are fine. Don’t need to change everything just to help McGinn. It’s his own responsibility to perform.
  4. The knee and achilles are completely different injuries though so not the best comparison. There have been some really good examples of fast recoveries from ACL knee injuries in recent years, ie. within six months.
  5. Under that scenario, Burnley would make a huge profit when we exercise the buy back clause. They wouldn’t suffer any loss or liability. Quite the opposite.
  6. But they had the option to buy him back for 25?
  7. I would choose champions league qualification all day long. I’ve always wanted to see us play in the champions league. I think I’d get more satisfaction from it than the shorter term euphoria of a cup win. And champions league football would really drive the club forward in so many ways.
  8. So many positives from that. I’m feeling good about my 210-1 bet for us to win the league.
  9. I don’t expect any decent club to be chasing Traore. But I could say the same about Bailey. I genuinely don’t think we could give him away at the moment with the wages he’s on. Anyway, I genuinely hope Bailey can turn things around. We need him to come good for us. But I’m not confident.
  10. Maybe but I don’t think the whole merits of someone’s opinion should be dismissed based on the Traore versus Bailey debate. It’s like arguing over Ant and Dec. They’ve both been poor. I’d argue Traore has done more in less appearances but that’s just my opinion. But I think some people are in denial at just how bad Bailey has been.
  11. I think that was a fair observation by Jimmy Greaves. I think Traore offers more. Playing with Bailey is like being down to 10 men 99% of the time.
  12. Yeah. If it was agreed on Thursday, I’d have thought there would be more concrete talk of a medical by now or him heading to America, etc.
  13. Any sign of this actually happening? It’s dragging out a bit now.
  14. I don’t think so. I think Watkins and Diaby are the only two players in the final third who match our quality in defence and midfield.
  15. They’re thanking us for facilitating his transfer. Seems unusual. We probably had to pay off some of his wages.
  16. Interesting that the back of his jersey says Pau rather than Torres. Does that pave the way for Ferran to join too?
  17. I think we would sell him if we got a reasonable price but I don’t see anyone willing to pay more than 10-15 million for him. Plus he’s probably on higher wages than he’s worth. So I think he will stay.
  18. Second. If we make some good signings and continue our good form into the new season, I think we have a great chance of rubbing shoulders with the top teams. I have a small flutter on us to win the league. I think we have a huge chance of top 4. My main concern is how playing on Thursdays will affect us in the league.
  19. I think 2027 is a bit long. He’s had a great second half to the season but he was very inconsistent before that and looked off the pace. Four more years is a big commitment by the club.
  20. I wonder if Nassif could deposit 100 million into Zed FC in Egypt to buy Wesley for an Egyptian record fee and give our transfer budget a boost.
