Back on the grass as the kids like to say. Still expected to be back March/April.

Nearly half the price that Chelsea paid for his midfield partner in the World Cup Final. I know he went with the Chelsea tax but still. Alexis is more experienced and has scored more goals. It’s laughable the figures these journalists come up with. It’s not even an educated guess.

£27 million? That doesn't even get you the broken glass you'd have to crawl over to hear him fart down a walkie-talkie.

He's mentioned how grateful he is to the club a few times now. It stems back to releasing him to play in the Olympics last summer as we were apparently reluctant to let him go as the final was a week before the start of the season and it could have meant him missing all of our pre-season prep...

Mac Allister would have returned today win or lose. All players were given 2 weeks (or thereabouts) off. Those who didn’t go to the World Cup had theirs at the start of the break before the club went to Dubai. The players who did go to the World Cup had two weeks off once their sides had been...

He'd never get a PHD. RDZ was a crap choice cause he changed jobs so often according to Graeme Sourness. Even Simon Jordan pulled him up on that pointing out every change was because he made a move upwards, and Souness had just as many jobs over the same number of years when he was managing too.

Thanks for the link, the 12ft ladder wasn’t working for me. Great article well worth a read.

Carlos Mac Allister made 3 appearances for Argentina in the qualifiers for the 94 World Cup. He didn’t make the WC squad and Maradonna was sent home in disgrace after failing a drug test. So I’d say it’s nothing like what Alexis is doing now for Messi.

You can't say that with any certainty at all. Mac Allister was starting regularly for us in the second half of last season with Bissouma here. He was getting called up to the Argentina squad because of those performances and there is nothing to say that wouldn't have continued this season. In...

That’s because the options may not be exercised. Very very unlikely we won’t take up those options but at the moment the end dates for the contracts are accurate on the site.

Highly unlikely as Tony has mentioned before he isn’t a fan of them as they take away a lot of power from the club. If there is one I’d imagine it would be for a ridiculously high fee.

Plus a year option for the club so effectively 2026. Excellent news.

I'm not sure Lanzini is that high in the current Argentina squad pecking order. He's only played 5 times and is 29 now, he's not in the latest squad for the matches they have in the summer. Alexis has one less cap and is 6 years younger and has been called up. I think a place in the WC squad for...

He is so effortlessly good no matter where he plays, he’s never fazed by having to move to a more defensive role after starting the game in an attacking one. I’m not sure anyone else in the squad has it in their locker to do that switch as well as he does. He can be a proper shit house too...

His contact expires Jun 2023. He signed a 4.5 year deal when he joined in January 2019.

AJ never started more than 2 games in a row under Potter, his best run was 4 in a row twice under Hughton. Mac Allister's longest run of starts came last season when he started 6 in a row from the Newport FA Cup game to the Spurs game, he then missed the Liverpool game through a slight injury...

Of course he's getting very well paid, but as we've seen with what Knocky went through, money doesn't make you immune to the challenges of mental health issues. Lockdown will have been tough for lots of people, especially pro sports people who are out training and competing every day. It could...

He's showing glimpses of what he's about, but he couldn't have had a trickier introduction to English football and life. Joins up with squad in mid Feb after being away with the Argentina Olympic squad, couple of weeks to get used to everything and then makes a very promising cameo debut away...

Cracking performance today, excellent touch to help setup the winner. Then helping the defence with a good tackle to stop Arsenal in their tracks right on the final whistle.
