I think the issue has been on going since Koeman left to the point that we are having to make choices between reserve LB and a striker becuase we haven't recruited strikers properly since Pelle left. Personally I'd have liked to have got a good LB and dropped Bertrand to back up. But actually a lot of problems this season are steming from our need to shoehorn in a LB/LWB from other positions becuase of no cover. I think you could argue that we'd be doing a lot better with a proper LB option and no Adams in the squad right now. Sent from my moto g(6) using Tapatalk

True that. Also if the usual suspects are so sure there is mass voter fraud going on we should consider all votes the last few years suspect. As such that only strengthens the case for a second referendum on brexit this time to take place after everyone in the UK has received photo ID it's the only way to make sure democracy is really being observed surely.

Quite and Targett to. Our recruitment has been like that for a while though. We let players in a certain position go and then instead of replacing them with an equivalent type of player go and buy a player for a completely different position. I can't help feeling the squad would be better if we replaced like for like (maybe not the same quaility becuase let's face players like VVD are hard to replace with a player of the same ability) but if we get rid of say a LB get another LB if we get rid of experienced CB, like Fonte, replace him with another experienced CB its not rocket science.

Yeah I have no problem with it. All I'm saying is the government would have to provide a form of free ID. Passports cost stupid money and not everyone has a driving licence because many people have one, or both, they assume everyone does. Both sides could be right in this argument ID at elections makes sense if it's done properly and some people would be excluded if was made a requirement and left to people to sort out their own ID.

Problem is Hoj is ****ing useless as well and Romeu works hard but his lack of mobility gets us in trouble. All three of them of them aren't very good at winning the ball in the middle of the park and moving it on to the forward players (so our attacking players end up dropping deep to try and get the ball) and none of them are great at protecting the defence either. Our CBs are pretty poor but their weaknesses are left exposed by our poor quality central midfield constantly giving the ball away and then lacking the mobility or engine to get back. We need some Midfielders who can win the ball from the press and then play a quick, incisive, forward pass to get a counter going and midfielders with pace and energy to get up and down the pitch at the moment we have a bunch of semi immobile ball recyclers.

I think the big story here is Mourinho has named his back room staff and not appointed the greatest current living coach Danny Rhol

Guess it depends on what ID is required. I remember going for re-mortgage a few years ago and they needed ID. As a non-driver with only a provisional licence, without a current passport and not being a member of the armed forces I didn't have one form of ID that Barclays would except. Stupidly enough I ended up re-mortgaging with Halifax online and never had to show any ID.

I wouldn't call any of them a coaching issue more a tactics issue... I'm not saying he hasn't made mistakes but show me a manager that doesn't get it wrong at times. Ultimately we have had four managers in three and half season with little signs of improvement in the squad performances. My take on it is we can keep changing manager again and again but, in the end, until the dross in the squad is replaced and a better quality of player is brought in we are just going to see the last couple of seasons repeated over and over until we are relegated. This bunch of players are, bar one or two, in the main hopeless and a lost cause they are mentally weak, used to losing and lacking much in the way of talent.

No it's not a coaching issue it's a lack of proper depth in the squad issue. Do you really think Ralph would be trying to shoehorn players into the LB/LWB/RB/RWB position if he had some decent fullback options? We have one left back in the squad who has been injured/an arse wipe/ suspend for a big chunk of the season. On the other side we have a mediocre RB who has been trying to leave for about three seasons and a young RB who isn't the finished article yet despite a few good performances. It's not like Ralph is trying Ings at CB or Gunn as a striker. Sent from my moto g(6) using Tapatalk

Seems like none of the current leaders are very popular. You get the feeling the British public are basically fed up with politicians of all persuasions Apparently Corbyn is one of the most unpopular opposition leaders ever ( nice one labour) while Boris is one of the most unpopular new PMs ever ( good job Tories) meanwhile nobody likes Swinson ( except fans of tits in tight sweaters) The funniest bit of the article though Johnson, Corbyn and Swinson were all rated as less effective leaders than Vladimir Putin [emoji15] Johnson and Corbyn locked in unpopularity contest, polls suggest https://www.theguardian.com/politics/2019/nov/19/boris-johnson-jeremy-corbyn-unpopularity-contest-polls Sent from my moto g(6) using Tapatalk

This. When Ralph arrived we improved a bit but this easily explained because A) we couldn't have looked worse than we did under Hughes any improvement in work rate seemed like a big step up B) the players did what players do when a new manager arrives and upped their work rate and tried a bit harder to impress But as last season came to an end we were already regressing back to our normal level we didn't win any of our last five games and failed to win some very winnable games on paper. The squad is a massive problem. To many **** players, not enough depth in key areas and several years of being **** has erroded the mind set of the current squad so they are mentally weak.

So could Boris wasn't his majority in Uxbridge slashed in half at the 2017 election? It would be kind of funny if the Tories won the election and Boris lost his seat.

Historically Zionism was/is a movement to establish a new Jewish homeland in Palestine that started to become popular in the late 19th century. You could be Jewish and not a Zionist technically I guess you could be a Zionist and not Jewish if you felt really strongly about it.

So the police are investigating Farage's claims the Government offered peerages not to stand against the conservatives in some seats.

65,000 EU citizens. Since when have EU countries been third world? They haven't been cherry picked they chose to excise their right as EU citizens to work where they want for the best deal something you, as a professed capitalist, should be all for. You'll have to be careful lord D you are starting to sound like a big wet pinko with your faux concern for poor countries. Also thousands of UK doctors do train here and then move abroad to work and I think its great they have found a better paid job elsewhere they are happy with. https://www.theguardian.com/society/2015/aug/23/new-doctors-leave-nhs-for-better-life-abroad https://www.independent.co.uk/news/uk/politics/doctors-leave-country-work-abroad-leaving-nhs-jeremy-hunt-contract-1000-per-cent-a6878776.html https://www.telegraph.co.uk/news/health/news/11883559/A-third-of-AandE-doctors-leaving-NHS-to-work-abroad.html
