  1. Not sure you can call a window in which we got Boubacar Kamara on a free “horrendous”. Can’t stand this “opportunity to press on” bollocks either. The players that fit the system and who are worth getting are either available or not. If they’re not, they ain’t coming and we wait until they are.
  2. You clearly haven't been watching them this season. They. do. not. concede. And they have the third highest team xG overall for the 20 games so far which suggests they have been very good offensively as well. They are not going anywhere, as much as it pains me to say.
  3. Newcastle are a top 6 side. It would take a catastrophic drop in form from them to finish outside it now. Botman, Schar and Pope have been utterly outstanding. I do take your point though, the players that got them there were signed when they were far outside the position they are now in.
  4. If the right players for Emery won't come/aren't available until the summer, don't pull trigger for the sake of it. That's how you get shit squad fillers. We waited for Kamara, and he's a Rolls Royce, don't buy a Dacia.
  5. Chelsea have outspent the rest of Europe on their own, twice over.
  6. Calm down people, Don Unai will burst in at the last minute bearing the sweet, sweet fruits of his behind the scenes labour in the transfer market. I still believe.
  7. If Chambers and Nakamba do go, how many senior players are we actually down to?
  8. We had a bid turned down for Merino mate, it was a dream that you thought we signed him. Moreno the fullback however, happy with the signing.
  9. The premier league is littered with £70-90m players who have been dreadful. Pepe, Pogba, Antony (early days I realise), Lukaku (twice), Sancho, Maguire. You take a gamble even at that price point.
  10. This is where I'm at. Chelsea need to just get stung now with their antics in the market.
  11. That is interesting. I am interested in this development.
  12. Get in the bin, Steero's here now (Was so close to tagging you.)
  13. Technically he's two posters. Both support Leeds. Or not... you decide
  14. The similarities between them right at this moment and us when we were doomed to go down are really really stark. Good manager leaves on eve of new season a few years back (MoN/Ancellotti) and never properly replaced. Only just avoid relegation the season before after consecutive years of decay. Sell star striker in run up to season. Sporadic and pattern less recruitment in the summer on a shoestring budget. Don't properly replace star striker who kept them up last season. Owner loses touch and alienates the fan base. Sack manager halfway through the season and will inevitably make a horrible decision on a replacement as there are no good managers who will touch with a bargepole. Losing mentality endemic within the team. They are down, make no bones about it.
  15. These are actual human footballers that the club have signed.
  16. Numerous rumours of signings and two actual signings over a period of 3 weeks - Messi11: "Are we broke? Not spending any money? Leeds and Bournemouth are spending more than us?!" Two rumours on a random Tuesday morning - Messi11: "Are we panic signing/Bidding????"
  17. Yeah but according to a tier 1 VT poster, we have no money.
  18. Thanks team, that clears that up. RIP flaps.
  19. Can someone update me on what actually happened to Piss Flaps?
  20. Just to complete the full nerd out, surely its Ashley Young who deserves the moniker "the Deathless".
  21. Taking longer to get big Jan moved to other football than the duration of his entire Villa career.
