I think the intention is to get Caulker on the ball on the right for his marauding runs

No sign of the situation changing anytime soon. Our financial health of late has been massively dependant upon profit from player sales. I think we've tried to be a bit too cheap and clever with a couple of our signings which is probably why Koeman seems a bit frustrated.

Of course he did.

Fonte talking about champions league before the game as well

Terrorist Attacks - WARNING: CONTAINS DISTRESSING IMAGES

Unfortunately the damage is already done as the headline will be stuck with the many of the millions who will have seen it. Job done, The Sun. -
I remember MP subbing him before half time on two occasions as well although I do think that he found a pretty effective role for him when he played him on the right hand side and he sat a little deeper, linking with and covering for Clyne who was providing the width at the time.

And he'll be nowhere near as good in all likelihood

It's a catch 22 as there are people being slaughtered on the scale of genocide in some of those countries so obviously they want to leave. -

Migrants from Syria in the volumes we're seeing now are an anomaly and a symptom of the presence of ISIS coupled with the brutality of the Assad regime. That needs to be looked at in isolation and better controlled. More broadly, our immigration policy can't be based on peoples religion. -

It's a question for you. How would you curb the flow of Muslim immigration into Europe through fear that a proportion would be extremist without effectively saying that Muslims are dangerous? -

I don't disagree with having a process to vet anyone moving across borders but much of ISIS make up consists of 2nd, 3rd generation etc migrants who are European citizens which has little to do with the migrant crisis caused by the ISIS presence in Syria and Iraq to begin with. -

He's suggesting that we stop the flow of muslim immigration into Europe. It you're going to achieve that, how would that be feasible without putting everyone under the same umbrella? -

So how would this restriction work in reality and how would it address the cesspits of poverty and segregation where large numbers of Muslims live in places like France and Belgium? They are the kind of conditions which promote fundamentalists. This seems like more of a problem than modern immigration and links to former colonial rule. It's a much more complex issue than any one thing in isolation. -

You're effectively tarnishing everyone with the same brush with your views on restricting immigration of Muslims though. -

I think his post linking this all to refugees and the EU trumps that TBH. -

You can't co-exist with extreme fundamentalists wherever they sporn from. -
It's not the same as form.

No, the L1/Championship years were though.

Depends if we are actually bothered by "peak value" or if an £8M investment in a striker who performs consistently well over 2-3 seasons is a good enough return. Obviously having the chance to double your money changes the situation. Our accounts tend to suggest that our finances are very much reliant on player sales in any case so we probably would look to sell if the opportunity arises.

What's that got to do with where Mane lives?

I'm sure there will be certain occasions where leaving early is a necessity. I've had to once during an evening game where I got a train and if I didn't make the last one out I wouldn't have got home as an example, but there are some who leave early every game regardless of what's going on which I find a bit bizarre to be honest.
