EFC-Paul

I don't think he did to badly tbh a fair few wayward passes but he wasn't any worse than the majority out there today 
The one thing he doesn't suit is being in that midfield with Gomes he's needs to either sit deeper or be paired with Bernard with Gana behind them to see how he fairs

We have far bigger problems than a 20 year old who should really only be playing off the bench at this stage of his career. 

Good thing Gomes can’t shoot.

Gana
          Davies                    Bernard
Lookman                             Richarlison
                         Tosun
 
Bernard floating through the middle behind Tosun and Davies sitting deeper, did well enough last time to warrant another start plus Gomes and Sigurdsson haven't been upto scratch lately so a rest may be needed 
                 

Gana
          Davies                    Bernard
Lookman                             Richarlison

It's pretty clear mate, you can't draw comparisons to two proven players after one half decent game it's just silly 
I nearly fell over though when I saw two notifications from a post I mention Gana and it was you and Pete 😄

Just given you a reality check that were no better with Gana, based on your first post 💋

Maybe so, but I reckon I’ll keep putting my money in to supporting the club. 

Well I didn’t see today’s game. Hopefully I don’t have to wait another two years for a good performance. 

I can respect that if that’s what he’s done then the conversations can be had as what happened with Lookman, but I heard he did ask to leave got turned down so put a transfer request in. 

Would be an excellent replacement for Coleman but we’d then need to replace Gueye. I’d actually be happy with this - we’ve got as good as nothing to play for now so I wouldn’t even mind if Gueye wasn’t replaced until the summer because Meunier is top class.

Here’s a massive part of the problem...
 

We'll get nowhere near 7th if we keep things as they are. More like 12th.
It doesn't have to be a permanent signing or someone long-term. Just get someone who's whole purpose is to stick the ball in the back of the net.

It doesn't matter what term the cost comes under its still a cost to the club, fee's and wages go hand in hand and most certainly will be part of the reason why we won't be splashing money around  
If my missus said can we get a third car and I have the capital to buy it but she doesn't for the running costs it's illogical to go out and buy it and it's definitely something anyone with any common sense would take into account before doing so 

I would be happy with that line up. I think Bernard could be a real influence on the game from the middle.

Pickford
Coleman     Keane      Zouma     Digne
                            Gueye 
               Gomes            Bernard 
Lookman                                 Richarlison
                              DCL
I was tempted to go with Kenny but Coleman is quicker and more experienced and Redmond might have a field day with Kenny 
Give Sigurdsson a break although his stats haven't been bad he hasn't  looked as effective of late and Gomes Bernard both put the yards in and I'd like to see what Bernard can do drifting forward centrally
DCL deserves a start he's had a great week so his confidence should be sky high 

Redmond has his tail up aswell but the new manager run can’t last forever. I think we will win handily, I hope so just for the lads going away 

Pretty sure that's the case mate I've never ever seen players wages being shown post tax
He earns £3.6m per annum which roughly equates to £75k per week pre tax, no clue where Haiku is getting those figures from 
Matt the info is readily available as clubs send their financial reports to Company House who then publish them 

There's been plenty of talk that Brands wants it much lower, it's around 80% of our turnover which is huge 
Far from being the worst in the league though but it goes hand in hand with having surplus players so hopefully we ship most of them out in the summer 

I’m sure that’s not the rule on the continent is it?  I remember a lot of players coming here from Europe and being shocked at the tax they have to pay. 
And when wages are listed, they are always listed gross not net. So if a player is on 135k here, that’s before tax, if a player is on 75k in Europe, that’s before tax.
