Eh. We’ve got pretty good value from Tav and Goldson, while Lundstram, Roofe and Kent have been big players for us at times. Lawrence looked great and Davies is solid. The scum have got Hart, Carter-Vickers, Mooy, and O’Reilly as pretty key contributors. It can be an expensive market but there are clearly good players available.

Fair enough. I misinterpreted you. Completely agree that we need more goals from our front three (and those behind them in midfield tbh)

Cantwell has only played about an hour for us. Can’t be writing him off just yet!

People thought he was a future England keeper when he was at Newcastle. Doesn’t look to have really kicked on but he’s a good age

Can’t remember the last good take he had

He was their best player to begin the season. Shame he’s injured again. It was great business from us, though

On paper it was worth a go. Low risk for a young international who was in the MLS team of the year I think. Just didn’t work out. (Agreed that Wilson needs to go though)

The fact that Morelos still doesn’t look fit is alarming considering it’s March. Preseason is important but professionalism is just as important. If he wanted to be fit then he would be

We’ve built a team that can win at their best but don’t get it done too often when they’re not. Not enough warriors in there

Think it was telling that Gerrard seemed to have no interest

The expectation at this stage is that both run out their contracts and leave at the end of the season and I would say the majority of comments about both this season have been negative. That said, the sentiment towards Goldson last season wasn’t great when he was in the situation then once he signed an extension most were pretty pleased. Do Kent and Morelos fall into the same categories? If they both said they love the club and wanted to stay, would you want to keep them or is it that both sides need a fresh start?

Think I’m higher on Lawrence than pretty much everyone in the world. Think that we’ve desperately missed him.

Keeper is priority one. We need to be a lot more solid and less mistake prone. We’ll also need a mobile striker. Keeper Tav Goldson Davies Yilmaz Lundstram Rankin Sakala Tillman Lawrence Striker And then Souttar, Hagi, Cantwell competing for starting spots. Think that’s a good team

He does seem to get caught out a fair bit at the back post by just not anticipating it at all. Did make a great tackle on the edge of their box, though

Said it to my dad yesterday. Mental how reliant we are on a 31 year old right back to produce something

Gerrard wanted to sell our backups but nobody who was a starter. But naturally nobody wanted our backups

Runs sideways and then shoots from 30 yards despite being unable to score from 6

What’s up with Roofe now ffs

Pretty embarrassing to be showing up to cause trouble and then shit yourself as soon as it kicks off

Just seen I can pay £15 and then cancel at the end of the month. Still a stupid channel to have it on

Forgot it’s on that awful channel. Can’t believe I’m having to find a dodgy stream for a cup final

Genuinely don’t remember him. Did we let him go or did he want to leave?

Waiting is killing me

Start him tomorrow

Some points in there are fair but mental to say things like “we’ll just come straight back up”
