It was never a penalty and was rightly not given how is the guys supposed to run with his hand behind his back? Just because a decision is not given our way doesn’t make it a bad decision. People moan against decisions because it doesn’t go in their team s favour. overall Var has been a blessing for teams like us. i cannot imagine even going back to having referees not realizing a player is miles offside or Gabiadini s disalowed goal at wembley

Shane Long is not capable of playing our possession based style of football. The guy should have been released this summer. He isn’t our future so I prefer giving a chance to one of the youngsters.

He will only have one year left next summer, so I doubt we ll get that. 20-30 mil tops

In that case I look forward to receiving the Money from Lemina s sale next summer.

I don’t think it is very severe otherwise we would have heard about it. As far as I am concerned no news is good news.

That s good news to be honest.

Long was supposed to be that back up

Maybe so but it has to be on our terms, as letting go a player just for the sake of him Wanting out shouldn t wave our hand as we need to reinvest on someone who comes here.

Think we need to keep our form going as Ings will see that we are on the up. Plus he is thriving under our style of play. Don t see how a move to Spurs, Man U or Arsenal helps his game. Man city on the other hand, i can see them wanting him. They need a striker. You could also have Klopp wanting him back as Firminho isn t scoring...

Don t agree on 2 things: - Subs : does he prefer tired players For 5-10 mins or to concede? Because not subbing earlier is costing us goals and points. We could even be higher in the table - Ward Prowse not wanting to take the penalty is a weak mentality. if he had a winning mentality, he would want to make amends for his earlier mistake.

With the future system, Bednarek, Djenepo and Salisu would have been a no go.

Nothing makes sense, rules in football should me the same accross the Europe so that everyone is on an even footing. Restricting the pool of players Available will just hinder our competitivety. I don t effing care if it Helps produce more homegrown players. If the talent isn’t there then it is pointless.

When Martin semmens spoke about it on the TSP podcast, i was left with the impression it would allow clubs to go in new markets outside of europe (Africa, South America) as the rules for Europe would align themselves with the rest of the world. Well it doesn’t appear like that. On the contrary it is must more restrictive and just means big clubs will poach our talents even more. brexit basically means restricting the available pool of talent Available to us and promoting the british ones whether they are good or not. this will impact long term the Competitiveness of the PL that is for sure.

Given how he has hardly played this season and the fact that he has been less than effective when he has played, should we have just let him go in the summer?

Don t think Armstrong needs a kick up the arse. wounder if Covid has had an effect on him. It is all very well having near to no symptoms but what if it takes an effect on you physically. He hasn t looked as fit as he was since he tested positive

Think he has lost weight and has gained some pace because of it. Last year before the pandemic he couldn’t keep up with the speed of the prem and we were often overrun in midfield when he played, now it seems the opposite so he has obviously shed some weight and completely improved his fitness to be able to do those high intensity runs.

Think Ings is a higher priority

How I laugh now, when I look at the first 2 pages Of this thread where all the regular posters were calling for him to be sacked after the Leicester game and how I along with 2-3 others posters were saying that you need to judge the manager over the whole Season and not based on form over the last 6 games. Same people now calling him one of our greatest managers, that he is a genious. Laughable 😂😂😂

He also aced it with Basel. Think he is suited to a more low paced game. Won’t succeed here. Sell while his value is high.

Not sure Gao will want to sell now that we are in the top places, or maybe he will demand a higher price.

Post trending on twitter. We have a brilliant media team. So many of my friends with no affiliation to us have been sending me this tweet haha. 150k likes and counting!

Vokins in the training pics, unless the gallery was taken just before ralph s press conference in which case he got injured during the session?

Wrong. VVD had swelling, you re talking rubbish. When there is swelling that means in most cases ligaments are damaged. The fact that he has no swelling and that he could walk out of the stadium with no crutches is good news. Hopefully it is just a knee strain in which case only a month out and back just after the international break.

The important bit is that he has no swelling.

Was seen outside the ground not on crutches!
