Disco Stu

10 years of Sport Republic sounds like purgatory.

No way!

For me, the bottom line is that you don't nerf your best player. Once it was clear KWP was staying, he should have been playing in his best position. If that means upsetting Sugawara, so be it. In regards to balance, we have an experienced defensive left back that we signed last summer. Why sign a full-back with 166 PL appearances to not play them? If we're not obligated to play Charlie Taylor, I'd be surprised if we're obligated to play Sugawara. As far as I'm concerned, they're both very average players, but one doesn't require KWP to move to the left. I imagine Taylor's experience would make him less inclined to silly errors as well.

Title gave me a panic attack thinking I had to endure another home game so soon. I checked and it's at the Amex thank god.

As a club with Championship status, we won't get as much as we probably should. Livromento went for about £32m. If there's a bidding war and we play clubs off each other like we did with Lavia, we could see as high as £50m.

I think Sugawara is capable of being decent for us but I do think the initial lauding for the guy was over the top. He's very average. I've always thought it was a joke that we moved our best player in KWP to accomodate him.

We might have been but Russell has already inflicted too much damage. We were good enough had we identified the problem early but we're not good enough to get 35/36 points in 26 games.

Getting pretty sick of losing in the 'right' way.

Not a chance.

5 losses on the trot since our game. Rather takes the shine off our glorious defeat to them.

It must go beyond an incapability to coach in that case. The players must be totally ignoring his instructions, given how much we ponderously pass the ball around our defense.

Lets be honest, with Russell Martin at the helm, it's not going to make the slightest difference to our results anyway.

Perfect summary of Russball.

So you would still support him if he had us finishing 21st in the Championship next season? Your standards are far too low.

Huge gamble for them. "If it ain't broke" and all that.

I could very well believe Jurgon Klopp is arrogant and, all in all, a very unpleasant person so I don't see the problem with that comment. The comment about Liverpool being shit is concerning though as they obviously aren't. It suggests a bias although likely influenced by previous abuse recieved from their staff. The biggest problem I see is that Coote needs to consider who his true friends are presuming this was never intended to do the rounds on social media. Particularly his 'friend' putting the words "we hate scousers" in his mouth.

No fence sitting this time from the "give it 10 games" brigade please.

Story I read on the BBC was both Ipswich and us agreed a £20m fee with Man City but Ipswich offered him a higher salary.

Stop projecting.

This is the kind of mentality he brought into the club...

It's the mistake we make year after year. Not willing to pay the money for a decent striker.

Ipswich winning away at Tottenham.

I think this was already Sport Republic's plan the moment the previous window shut.
