  1. Great pundit, commentator and seems like a great bloke. Think he gets nervous watching us and can’t get into his rhythm as a commentator so don’t enjoy him doing that. Appreciate his attempts with us and never doubted that he wanted what was best for us but he’s back where he should be.
  2. Actually thought Beale said there were no offers on the table at the moment for any of the out of contract players. I’m sure there have been conversations with Kent, though, and wouldn’t have thought we’d have let it get to the final 3 months if he was willing
  3. Stop playing him if he doesn’t want to stay
  4. Aribo wasn’t a Wilson signing, was he? Thought he arrived before. And I thought Bassey was recommended by Gerrard? Do agree that we got good value for the latter but the fact that the wins are all about selling players says it all
  5. I’d agree with that. There can’t be a clear distinction with us as the second best team. If the league comes down to a game and we lose it then I’ll be devastated but these things happen sometimes. We’ve benefited from it and we’ve lost out because of it. Everyone knowing we’re done in November isn’t acceptable, though. And we really need to start winning some of these cups.
  6. I’ll be interested to see if our style changes at all with the personnel. Not expecting anything radical but know he’s spoken before about two strikers, etc
  7. Don’t think he was good enough for us but glad to see him doing well
  8. McGregor is so far off the standard we need. Becomes more obvious with every game
  9. Mark Goldbridge spending 15 minutes talking about goals Greenwood has scored before shaking his hand and saying it’s good to have him back
  10. Think the issue is that we know McGregor is poor from crosses so if he isn’t a good shot stopper when what are we getting? Still great at time wasting tbf but think we might need more than that
  11. A few could do us a favour by retiring tbh. Take the decision out of Beale and Wilson’s hands
  12. We’ll be losing Davis and likely Jack and Kamara in the summer so need somebody who can play that role
  13. There are definitely more effective ways but nowadays social media does have an impact. Becomes more difficult for them to bury their heads in the sand. Does it make us look bad as a fanbase? Maybe. But people will start noticing.
  14. Doubt it will do much but they’ll definitely be aware of it
  15. Might mean promoting from the squad to the first team (Devine, Lowry)
  16. He’s his mate and probably one of the few inside the building who Ferguson still gets info from
  17. Butland always has a mistake in him. That’s what worries me. Don’t think Dubravka would be the end of the world.
  18. Honestly dreading to think who might be extended
  19. The fact that he is less composed than Sakala and Morelos is honestly impressive
  20. Think he must just be a bit simple. Blasts it as hard as he can every time. Doesn’t seem to learn
  21. Yeah. And that’s what we were hoping to get from Gio and Dutch players but it didn’t happen. It’s easier to get scouts to England than Japan but they have the knowledge of the market. Sometimes it works (as it has for them) but sometimes it doesn’t (Pedro, PLG)
