Just black screen for me, think it is happening to a lot trying to watch!

Ive not done saintsplayer - think i might do it next season - has it usually been ok?

None of these streams working for me today 😶

Ah ok, didnt know that. My initial point was more about they still spent butt loads of money on the other players, so their average spend on them was higher than the theoretical £25m each.

Oh maybe not, was just pointing out that sometime stuff happens.

Maybe, hadn’t Poch just been sacked (or left) Espanoyl before we took a chance on him?

Agree with that, and also, Trippier didnt cost much as he was out of contract in 6 months, making most of the spend on 3 other players, unless i missed something with the finances.

I'm not sure there was this out brigade hing though. Maybe a couple of die hard ones who may not change opinion, but not sure even who they were. I'm sure people suggest Duckhunter is one of them, and I'm not sure he was, but likely people will think so.

Agree with a lot of this, I wasn't calling for his head but I was hugely concerned.

What a load of f**king horseshit you post sometimes. What humble pie? What boo boys - people who voiced an opinion that the manager for a massive run was beyond hopeless, weird tactics, refusal to change much at all and looking helpless on the touch line - at many points on that run Ralph was clueless and didnt appear to know what to do. Ralph could have easily been shown the door long ago when we went on that truly awful run. Very few people would have moaned had he been sacked had that happened. It has turned out well that he wasnt, but that isn’t humble pie. You mention Bertie & Vesty unlocking our attack - well this is the same Ralph that was trying to get them to sign a new contract 😂 Like I said, it has worked out well, but who knows, Mr Hindsight, maybe we would be playing much better had someone else came in. For all you know, that is a possibility. Apologies if you feel I’m singling you out, as you have suggested before - just you tend to go on about the people who moaned, rightly, about Ralph during the worlds worst run of results.

Yep agree with this, also add that Perraud has started to play better since getting used to the league, and it does take time to adjust to the pace and quality over the French league. He also seems to have found more confidence, he was really good v Spurs, just hope he plays today as think he could have a great game v Dalot.

I heard the cat was closely related to Jack the Hat.

Maybe Brendon changed his priorities along the way. They used to be a cup team, and they didnt have to let 3 goals in 9 minutes.

Agree with this Chez. Also I think we have been playing him since his better games out of position. I seem to recall when he signed there was stuff from Blackburn saying he was hopeless out wide and got far better/more goals played through the middle.

Yeah I completely agree. I mean, who the f**k scouted Salisu, then Tino, and Broja in the summer needs shooting.

Not sure Burn is any better than what they have. I dont know who plays LB for them, maybe Targett is better - jeez they must be pretty crap if he is better...

Yep agree and think we would sell summertime if we got that size offer. Be interested who we would go for as his replacement, unless they promote Diallo and recruit another one to develop.

I really hope we start to plunder the Liverpool youth set-up. How do you like them apples, we could say…

Not sure people wouldn’t up sticks and move. Money can be a real incentive and amazing how it can influence peoples views! I think there would be a number we would sell him for, something around £70m would be very tempting for us, literally every player has their price, and I trust us now to be far, far better with how we recruit replacements.

Yep, not sure about Newcastle, although if they gave him a huge £ rise, but I can see someone coming in for him. What money you think he would go for for us to be interested?

Yeah, i dont think he will go now, but maybe summer window. Im not sure what our consideration point would be, I put £70m as I think that would make us very interested.

Wonder what we would do if Newcastle came in with £70m+ for JWP…

Where are we in the table now?
