Fair enough, I was only going off the top of my head and completely forgot Marseille

He definitively hasn't been "poor" this season. Obviously, its far from a perfect system, but Dunk has a rating of 6.75 on WhoScored. That's vs. Stones (6.55), Konsa (6.65), Guehi (6.53). He's not been at his usual high standards and certainly had a few poor games, but to say he's been poor...

Timing is a bit of a thing too. His star really started to rise during and after the 2022 World Cup. Although he didn't start any of the matches (subbed on at ~60mins in 3, HT v Spain) he had a big influence during his appearances and ended up being a huge player for us in the 6 months after...

Just to comment on the Greenwood case, whether it's proven or not, whether he's innocent or not, he comes with several suitcases worth of baggage that will only prove to be a distraction. You only have to look at the volume of discourse and disagreement on this thread to know that it's asking...

Eurgh... Author of the Express articles: "Lefties aren't defending migrants they're defending a multi billion pound criminal empire" and "600 feared dead - how many bodies does Left need to finally help stop people trafficking?" She'll fit right in, I'm sure

After the absolute pasting we got from other fans, media and "football people" after Hughton got the sack, I'm never quick to judge what look like weird signings too harshly. I think Hull could have reasonably expected to make the playoffs given their January signings, overall budget and league...

As far as I'm aware, we didn't bring in Undav as a striker and play him as a defensive winger in Hughton's 9-0-0-0-0-0-0-1 formation

"Absolutely. Sick of all these experts out there, spouting facts and statistics that prove me wrong. I don't want to BE correct, I want to THINK I'm correct."

To be fair, he did get off to a good start. He scored 5 and assisted 4 in his first 10 games (W5, D2, L3). It just tailed off somewhat after... I have to admit, I thought he'd gone all David Icke post retirement. Maybe he's taken off the tinfoil hat

Wouldn't miss it

What makes you so sure we'd be competing for a title? 19 out of the 24 Championship teams are relegated PL teams that didn't get promoted. This season, only mega-budget, PSR-busting Leicester are nailed on to be promoted.

Absolutely not

They aren't all gone, they're on the Tory Meltdown thread. I suspect most Brexiters see it as "done", and all the problems we're seeing in this country are unrelated to Brexit and down to wokeness, migrants and Sadiq Khan.

That's the bit I found utterly hilarious. It's just tosh they've been spoon fed

"Do you think Roberto going "full Poyet" has enhanced or diminished our chances to finish the season strongly?"

Having been in the Alfriston doctor's surgery on Monday, it's clear that there are swathes of people entirely taken in by Tory war-mongering. "I moved down here in the 70s because London has become like a third world country. I haven't been back in years because it's even worse now" was pretty...

You're right, of course, but outside the Premier League sustainability is a massive issue and once you get relegated, the sudden drop in finances can smash a club sideways. I think Paul Barber said it best (paraphrased): "Only in football would people argue about being able to be allowed to lose...

Sorry, just a minor correction. You can't have an injury that doesn't rule you out "for the rest of the season"

Looking at Brighton Bubble, originally they started it doing it so it was easier for Brighton fans to see rumours. I think you're way overcomplicating how much effort they put into this. It may not interest you (or me for that matter), but loads of fans do want a simple place to easily get...

That may be the case, but when you break it down he was at Sassuolo for 3 years, a decent stint, only left Shakhtar because of the war, left Palermo (14 managers in 8 years) because their owner sacks everyone and Benevento go through on average a manager a year too. On paper, 7 clubs in 10...
