  1. It was Tielemens the first international break. Seems like it's Bailey's turn for the media to create an entire non story out of.
  2. Fair play to anyone who reads this thread daily. The emotional rollercoaster is far too much for me. The relegation threads had less histrionics.
  3. Better be £99.5 million so we can round up.
  4. It's true. Doesn't look for the foul just picks the ball up wide, beats at least two opposing players and scores. Up to 12 in all comps. Been an absolute joy to watch him all season.
  5. Averaging a goal every other full 90 played. If that's erratic then what does he look like as a finished article. I'll be livid if we let him leave for anything other a club record transfer. He has everything you want in a striker and is only 20.
  6. If that's true, no one is paying 100 million. Injuries like this require rest, which is hard to find when your club is probably going to break 60 games played. 2 months off in the summer and he will be back to his best.
  7. I said as much pages ago. Our setup had effectively sucked the life out of our team. John, as captain, took upon himself to reinject some fight into Villa. He was having a good go at it but messed up. It happens, people make mistakes. The way people dissect players actions on the pitch is laughable. This is a game played at speed, with no defined stoppages. Multiple decisions must be made every second by the player. John got this one wrong but his intent was to spark our play, so for me no harm done.
  8. Honestly not even mad. Our tactics were never going to work so our captain took it upon himself to try and fashion something. He doesn't make that tackle if we aren't in that inept back 5 setup. Crazy decision to set us up that way at home.
  9. Yeah but we were also toothless, which not surprisingly once Spurs scored we had no reply. I get trying to balance conference league and the PL but you can't play for a 0-0 at home.
  10. We look like a team who just played a game 4 days ago. Spurs were the liver side. Also, cash as your wide right attacker at home is too negative for me. Hopefully we don't see that again.
  11. Cash as the right sided midfielder has worked exactly one time vs Burnley. It's been an abject failure every other time we have tried it. Please no more.
  12. Brentford are pros at this. They just completely muck up the game.
  13. I'm not saying he's the finished article but currently, until his development is complete, he is squad filler. I would much rather have Tim performing that role at a very affordable wage versus a Dendoncker or Chambers.
  14. I think we need the converted Bailey haters to slide over here and start slandering Moussa. We get that negative energy flowing and by this time next year he will be world clas.
  15. You want to keep the wage bill manageable,you have to carry a Tim or 2 on the roster. Definitely struggled but he harassed Ajax and allowed McGinn to ride the bench for the majority of the match. Job done, averagely.
  16. You can't go on the road and force the home team to play football. Perfect result for playing against a negative side that never wanted to score.
  17. Not if the PL cap is the highest of the top 5 leagues in Europe. Which based on total revenue for each league it should be.
  18. In our present condition you aren't wrong. I see it this way. Without FFP our champions league team gets picked apart like Leicester City without anything we can do about it. Our owners eventually lose interest and down the league we go. With FFP it will take years of commitment by our owners but we can build our revenue base up to the point where we are essentially an equal to the PL top 4/5 in revenue. Spurs tripled their revenue in 9 years. I don't see why we can't do the same.
  19. Very alarming. Without Mings, Diego is the only CB that can bring a high level of physical play to our defense.
  20. Boggles the mind that some don't see it. We have our highest earners on £150k p/w. City, Newcastle, and United could double that. Grealish is getting £300k p/w and he's only the third highest earner for City. United has multiple players earning over 300k p/w. You abolish FFP and the vultures will descend and unless we have the revenue to afford higher wages there won't be a thing we can do about it.
  21. Can't see it happening. First, you need 14 clubs to pass that. Top 6 plus a few others doesn't get you close to 14. Secondly owners lover FFP. NSWE can't compete against a nation's investment fund. If FFP wasnt here half our team would have signed for Newcastle by now. Just like when City ran the Randy Lerner out of town. With FFP, as long we pay a competitive wage, clubs can't poach our talent and our owners losses have a hard limit year over year.
  22. We absolutely need the Ezri, Carlos, Pau partnership back ASAP. After getting clean sheets in consecutive games against City and Arsenal we have had 2 in the last 11 league games. No offense to Lenglet, he has deputiesd as well as can be expected but the sooner he is watching the game from the subs bench the better. Our defense has been a seive since we lost our preferred pairing in the back.
  23. We beat the same team 5-0. Arsenal scored in the 97th minute to beat luton 4-3. We played both teams exactly the same.
  24. As the revenue gaps grows between the championship and the PL this might become a much more regular occurrence.
  25. Oh no I feel bad just watching this.
