Strangely, I think people on the whole have slowed down (and the speedsters stand out a lot more now), but that the standard of driving has become worse. I live in Haywards Heath and the level of driving there is atrocious. I regularly (and by regularly, I mean daily) see people do things that...

Whilst I agree with the principle of what you’re saying re Ferguson, that’s harsh on March. He was excellent at times as the alternative to Knockaert, then spent a lot of time on the left where he was more one dimensional, or at LWB, where he had to focus much more on the defensive side of...

We’ve won the league, we’ve won the league! 🥳

The guy has started two Prem games for us this season. These weren’t consecutive. Anyone that’s ever played football to any level knows you can’t get in a rhythm with that. But you keep digging. Although I’d much prefer he was scoring every week with the 20 minutes he gets, of course. As I’m...

You’ve written a lot of nonsense to explain why you’ve still not engaged in the topic.

He was only in one game because he wasn’t a real person. And he was worth about £7k right at the start, so unless you knew about him… But those who knew, knew.

So predictable. At least some people on here have tried to deal directly with and address my (mainly tactical) concerns. But you’re correct, I might turn out to be right or wrong. I hope I’m wrong as it means we’re successful.

I got none of these feelings. I guess we see what we want to see and create the narratives in our heads that we want to create. I certainly don’t imagine you would be writing your post if she wasn’t a black woman. I thought it was inevitable she’d die the moment she left her kid to go after...

To Madeira? To Madeira?

It’s the “play a back 4, but don’t ever sign full backs” process.

I tried watching the original last week. It’s a total snooze fest compared to this, I thought.

God, everyone always has an angle.

Can he play 6th choice right back though?

🤞

I’ll revise my use of the word inept to describe him, albeit I think he’s close to that. I’ll start going with “incredibly naive”. I just thought we’d be getting more from a manager if we’re to let him play with £200m of new toys.

Interest rates staying high can also be seen as a real negative, depending on your position.

Pretty much anyone that sparkled in Serie A when that used to be on channel 4. Cassano, Totti, Batistuta, Veron, all of the Parma team, Maldini, Cafu, Djorkaeff, Recoba, Leonardo (in fact, all of that Milan team), Zidane, Del Piero. The standard of football in that league, at that time, was by...

I respect your right to that opinion. It does go partly back to the summer spend though. In the “rate our summer” thread, I made the point that I couldn’t judge it until we saw it in action, because I didn’t think we’d dealt with the problem areas and I wasn’t sure we’d improved the team. Not...

And I totally respect your right to that opinion. I want to see the £200m flourish. Let’s be honest, that bit has to be given time as we can’t bin them all off. I just don’t think they will under this manager, based on what I’ve seen.

I didn’t watch the Everton game, so I can’t judge. He was totally lost against Man Utd. Didn’t know when to make runs, didn’t know when to press, struggled to shift ball through midfield. I’m pretty sure I said as much in the ratings thread. He did have one very good chance where he timed his...
