DownUnderToff got a reaction from StevO in Summer 2022 Transfer Window
Not being overwhelmed with our perm attacking links, in Kalajdzic and Guirassy. They don't seem to fit the "young and hungry" bill either.
Would rather we go early on the likes of Rutter at Hoffenheim or (somehow) Evanilson at Porto.

Stalin (Orthodox Church) and Hitler (Catholic Church) had a religious background; Pol Pot had a Buddhist / Catholic upbringing. Even if they all came to atheism, as you say, the atrocities they perpetrated were not committed in the name of atheism. Indeed, I don't know of any crime committed in the name of atheism. Quite the opposite is true of religion. There lies the difference, I think.

DownUnderToff got a reaction from AlbanyNYToffee in 2022-2023 season - Preparation
Can we just sign Colwill & Cornet on a perms, as well as Winks and Gilmour on loans already. Hopefully loan/buy Garner as well.
We just need some shit to solidify this year, before we can build again. I'd even take Ismaila Sarr on loan, just to get some right sided options.
Also, how we're not deep in to Belotti for a couple of years of wages is beyond me. He likes the ball in behind but is used to coming short (Torino). He's also not Rondon.
As much as I want a high quality 6/8, it seems we're truly skint. Let's suck it up for a year or so, and start risking it on players a year or 2 before we would have previously.

I really hope not. Will be another wasted wage packet. Still living off a few good games when he first played for united. Rather see an academy player of our own a chance.

This is what happens when you can spend money freely.
I miss those times and is why I never want to hear anyone say "it's not your money, so why are you bothered?" again when people are worried about us overspending on a player.

DownUnderToff reacted to Matt in Possible Takeover
I was very nervous about Moshiri coming in, this looks so much more unappealing.

DownUnderToff reacted to Gwlad in Richarlison
Just can't abide the thought of us being easy meat for Levy.

Rumoured interest from Bayern, which is a bit concerning as they never pay much.
Why are you ruling out Spain? Hopefully Ancelotti does us a favour and overpays.

Think Richy is gone. Wants to challenge for trophies and we're rebuilding again. Fair play to him, he dug deep for us and we wouldn't have survived without him.
Would probably keep DCL unless a stupid ($50m+) offer is forthcoming, rather than lose both he and Richy in the 1 year.
I'd also cash in on Pickford while his currency is as high as it is. Bring in a cheaper, gun, young keeper from a foreign league.
Hopefully we've given up on trying to buy our way up the table, can reset and build properly.

DownUnderToff got a reaction from Sibdane in Palace (Home) 19th May
Yeah, looked like the guy must have said something particularly offensive. Immediate thought went to it being something racist. If it was, hopefully they're caught and banned.
Good on the other supporters who seperated them and protected Viera away.

DownUnderToff got a reaction from Heath in Dele
Turned it for us today, well done to him.
Not a "hustle" sort of player, looks like he conserves himself energy wise at times, but went in when he thought he could impact and won important balls.
Clean feet and very creative. Will be nice if we can get him some players on his wavelength. Then hopefully we'll see players on the end of his passes, like the little chip pass into the box (that Coleman missed).

DownUnderToff reacted to Newty82 in Dominic Calvert-Lewin
I've swerved all convo around DCL. Seen snippets on here and online and agree with none of it.
Always been a fan. Couldn't give a fuck what he wears, how long his hair is or anything like that.
He's had an unfortunate season and - not surprisingly - has been getting better and better with game time. Then he puts the cherry on top.
Stronger with him than without.

DownUnderToff got a reaction from Btay in Palace (Home) 19th May
Buendia looked like he was trying to give the penalty away, 2 incidents in a row that could have been the cause.

Sorry mate, only saw it in the flesh. Not seen it played back anywhere.

DownUnderToff got a reaction from chicagoblue in Burnley ( Away ) Wednesday 6th April
Don't get this part.
He's offered very little for quite awhile now for mine and, other than fresh legs, didn't see him looking like changing the result today.

Gray just keeps giving it away

DownUnderToff got a reaction from Gwlad in Wolves (H) Sunday 13th March 2.00
Why the fuck don't we have a sports psychologist? The majority of our players are in dire need

Has Gray been near it this half?

Getting pretty sick of Gray trying to do it all himself

Friend of mine is a mad wolves fan. He says they've had no answer to teams pressing them aggressively, so I have some hope here.
We need to be on and at them early, hopefully (this time) with shots on target and get 1 in.

DownUnderToff got a reaction from Matt in Man of the Match v Leeds
Need "Team" as an option today.
Just a huge well done to all the Lads, great effort all around. 2am start for me but the team delivered.
No idea on MOTM but special call out for Iwobi. I've been very critical of him in the past, today he was sensational for both effort and touch.
