All these free transfers cost money... they'll be on bigger wages and signing on fees because there's no transfer fee attached. Lallana, McCarthy and Ghoddos - all three are pissing money down the drain and shouldn't play more than 10 games each. Taylor, is he even better than Manning? Hopefully we'll see some more ambition after the accounts roll over next week.

If we're signing Charlie Taylor as our first-choice left-back and McCarthy as our first-choice goalkeeper then we are skint, surely?

For what it's worth, it was given as offside on-field - so VAR then needed to look for a clear and obvious error to reverse that decision, rather than the other way around. I can see why it wasn't given tbh

Ghoddos is not a central midfielder

Who hired Danny Rohl for this gig ffs? Obviously a talented manager but terrible TV

We'll have the new semi-automated tech next season. PGMOL decided against using it in 23-24, for whatever reason

Leggy garbage from a majority of them tonight. Doesn't bode well at all TAA a midfielder? Give it a rest Foden deserves one more chance but if he plays like that again, then he could find himself out of the knockout side

Probably a lower weekly wage and a much higher loyalty bonus so we don't smash the structure up. £5m? Though if money talks, he'll go to Saudi.

Neither would be an upgrade. We'd be pissing money down the drain

100%. It's not like any fans who want tickets can't get them. It'll just be full of more away fans and knobheads who get down the stairs on 35 minutes for the overpriced slop in the concourse.

Top player, shite source. Would be surprised if we were shopping in that price bracket this summer

Yeah hopefully whoever's in charge of the transfers is better at keeping things out of the media than Wilcox/Shields etc. I'm not expecting us to make any signings until July anyway when the accounts roll over.

I'm yet to see an exciting link since promotion...

Not sure about dropping Maguire though, blimey. He's not put a foot wrong for England at a tournament. He's injured, nevermind.

Seems Southgate is damned if he does, damned if he doesn't. Those two have been shite for months, so he's going with players who are bang in form for the smaller sides (Eze/Gordon). Makes sense to me.

Time for the government regulator imo. It would put us behind some European countries, but surely even Arsenal/Man U/Tottenham would get behind it now. There's no way they can keep up if the state-owned clubs (Chelsea/Newcastle/City) are allowed to do what they want. I'm sure even Chelsea and Newcastle fans aren't fond of the way things are going. City, eh, they're too far gone.

Then we'll be going down. I love Che, but he's not a first-choice striker at this level and I'm putting even less faith in Mara and Stewart

He could score another five and I wouldn't give a fuck. His body language stinks, I don't want him near this group. He's a slightly better Sekou Mara

I'm just pointing out that his attitude hasn't changed one bit from when he was here. In my opinion, he's lazy and thinks he's hot shit. He's been unlucky with injury but that should've made him hungrier. Clearly it hasn't because his career is flatlining. No way we should be making him our marquee signing, he wouldn't fit in at all with what Russell is trying to do and I don't think he has the man management skills to sort him out. Let him go Monaco for mercenary money.

Clueless

And what a worldie it was against the European powerhouse of Liechtenstein.

So? He's still not broken into more than a jog, doesn't look interested when he doesn't have the ball, screaming at his teammates when they can't get it to him. Sounds familiar...

Got it on the dodgy stick

Watching Broja at the moment. The blokes attitude stinks, put him side to side with Che or AA and it's night and day.

Hard to tell if De Gea would be pie in the sky or not. Hope the club put a call in anyway
