I’d take the Aaron’s rumour with a pinch of salt, I think we have an excellent relationship with Norwich from the Godfrey sale.

I’ve been patient with Iwobi and stuck up for him a bit but it’s just not working - he has no eye for goal or desire really. I think we would do well in Italy actually. Shame because he has so much raw ability

Wish Iwobi had 15 goals and assists for a poor season though like Richarlison.

Will be hugely disappointed if we don’t have any form of Europe next year but looking at the season realistically - We’ve probably had our best season against the “bigger” teams. Away form has been excellent. Finally lost the liverpool hoodo Beat arsenal away So hopefully we back Carlo/Brands in the market and get those 3/4 players that will bring a higher level of consistency.

He has been over played for sure but he isn’t a bad option to have. I don’t think Holgates attitude would support the back up role whereas Coleman would be excellent

Shame we haven’t seen them together so much this year - win % stat would be interesting

Not to mention he is more capable it seems than holgate to come into the team and perform at decent level straight away. Solid, consistent pro - excellent back up imo

It depends on who we are recruiting so for me I’d like to see Holgate -> Max Aarons Mina -> Kouliabaly Gomes + Siggy -> Sabitzer or Rabiot Delph -> just gone (Gana) Iwobi + Bernard -> Coutinho Kean + King ( free) -> Donyell Malen

Exactly. Fantastic manager and grateful to have him but not above criticism

Loads of areas to upgrade before the 4th highest goal scorer in the league

My growing concern though is his apparent fondness of Delph. I don’t understand how he can rate him and I don’t want us to sign anymore players of similar level

Such an open game which theoretically should suit us better. Pickfords been top top class.

Get in!

I think he’s bulked up too much and lost a bit of that pace he had that made him clinical. Honestly, for what Dom lacks in finishing I still don’t think we can get any one better overall than him. Next season will be huge for him.

Wouldn’t mind him going if we got Donyell Malen in. At PSV and looks very good, rapid pace.

It really seems like the management team appreciate Tom and I really hope it’s what he needs to kick on and become a quality player.

Exactly, I feel PSG may be open to him leaving as his re sale after next season would be nominal but he could still offer a lot. We are so reliant on Allan to provide presence and energy. Both of them in a team could really allow the likes of James to really express themselves. Also a 3 with Doucoure would get through so much work and perfect to close out games.

First half was good. Was a bad tackle, he acknowledged straight away - we’ve all seen enough of him to know he isn’t a dirty player.

I dunno but Pickford Aarons Godfrey kouliabaly Digne Allan Doucoure Coutinho James Richarlison DCL looks pretty damn good to me

He might mean that at 28 he’s probably at his peak. I think there’s better, younger and cheaper available.

The premier league is so competitive though that no team can really guarantee champions league football every year. Over the next few years Man U, Chelsea, Spurs and maybe even liverpool might find themselves in this competition while an Everton, Leicester maybe West Ham take a Europa or champions league spot. Take what we get and get a squad capable of competing in all comps!

If we can’t compete in this European cup and the premier league then we aren’t remotely ready for champions league or Europa. Playing mid week in Europe is a vital step in progression.

Christ I thought he was on loan still!!!! Not 15 but id have thought he would be around 10. Had an absolute Barry here!

Scored a nice back post volley against QPR. Dowell seems to be getting a lot minutes for them - perhaps he can be part exchange. 15mil + Dowell would be good business.

If we win our next 2 games we will be in line for 4th spot, can’t see chelsea beating city and we need to beat west ham
