Great insight. Thanks. Good to see you starting the day in the same positive fashion as every other day. #dtgroundhogday

You really need to find another team to 'support'.

Even if the replacements were better?

Aribo played up top against Monaco. I wonder if the plan is to give him time in that spot. We've got options in midfield. Not so much up front.

But, specifically, what about Broja?

Didn't think Lynaco was 'terrible' last night, although on two occasions his efforts to get back into position after losing possession in the middle of the park were pretty underwhelming. As for Stephens and Valery, they looked like they both spent the summer at Maccy D's drive through.

He looked somewhat ‘unfit’ and overweight too. As did Stephen’s, but then he’s always appeared to be carrying a bit of timber.

The difference was he bought Aribo and several of the 1st 11 on! I spent some time with Bazunu and the other new ‘Keeper prior to the game. Both seemed decent guys. Gavin was not as big (build) as I’d expected. Tall but slim. Valery looked overweight as did Stephens. Romeu was one of the few positives in the first half, along with Diallo. Lyanco did OK too but doesn’t seem overly keen on getting back after losing position in the middle of the park which he did twice. Big change in the 2nd half with the addition of guys who’ll probably start at Spurs. Good high intensity workout and quite impressive (2nd half). Aribo was super impressive. Seemed to be playing up top pretty much. I’d assumed he was more a midfielder?

I reckon you've put yourself on ignore. You must have, otherwise you'd realise you've said the same thing a thousand times.

Bale has already gone to the MLS, right?

Are you referring to Ings and his CL R/U medal? Or Carillo and his 5Metre swimming badge?

Saint Garrett, who appears to have some level of ITK, says that's cobblers.

He didn't say he was wrong. He asked a simple question. Calm down fella.

Deal vs price.

https://apple.news/Ab5fP2zdUQzagP7_gTwG77w West Ham interest in JWP. Apols if old news.

Watched him in the pre-season game at Eastleigh. He was literally the worst player on the pitch. The obsessive pursuit of him by Strachan was reflective of how WGS was losing it at that point.

Just reading on The DE site that Forest have enquired about Smallbone. Probably old news but hadn't seen it posted when I flicked through here.

Enjoyed last night, but got to say, not a patch on when I saw them in Birmingham in 2017. Better set list and better audio. I was spoilt by that high bar.

I can see it now. Charlie Austin, JanV, Ox, Walcott, Berty. The boys are back in town.

You realise he got his team relegated, right? You know, what Ralph hasn't done.

And that’s the crux of it. As an SFC supporter, with our relative financial clout, or lack of, what is the realistic expectation? Probably about 15th, maybe a few spots higher and with a decent cup run thrown in. Whilst we have some horror runs we also, over the course of the season, ended up relatively comfortable. That’s probably the Boards objective at the start of each season.

I can't wait for our new manager. Challenging for the title and Champions League trips to the Bernabeu and the Nou Camp. What's not to like?

You know they sacked their manager in February when they were 2 points off the relegation zone, right?
