    Premier League 2022/23: Man Utd vs Brighton - Sun 7th Aug 14:00 KO

    I know there is still some pre-season games to come but the real thing starts next weekend, so we can get some discussion in nice and early! I would probably have a guess that only Martinez out of the three signings may start this one. I think Malacia and Eriksen may well start on the bench. I...

    Everton Discussion 2022/23

    Yeah their squad isn’t in a good state. Some decent enough players and in Gordon and Gray, they have a little bit of young talent. Overall though, you would put them up with one of the worst squads in the league. If Lampard can lead them to a good season, then he has done a hell of a job.

    For someone that has confessed he doesn’t really watch football anymore, you have some strong opinions on players?

    Everton Discussion 2022/23

    Yeah never really seen the excitement about McNeil - looks a tidy enough player with a decent left foot. Beyond that though, he’s never really impressed me. Tarkowski will be a good signing for them but think overall it will be a season of struggle and Lampard may not last the season.
  14. SuperRash

    Antony

    I’m not against a move for Savic as he’s a brilliant player and would add some much needed quality and height in the middle of the park. However, he isn’t a like for like for de Jong so doesn’t solve our major pressing issue.
  15. SuperRash

    Antony

    Think we can stick a fork in this one to be honest - I doubt we will want to pay what Ajax want. Ajax have lost a few players this summer, so don’t want to be decimated anymore. This move is more likely to happen next summer I would say.

    I mean give the guy a chance to fail before saying he’s not good enough and is disappointing! He is small yes but that’s not the be all and end all of being a good defender.

    Barca keep attracting these players, even though they cannot even play for the club yet!

    Of course he is. He may have agreed to the deferral but he is still owed the money that was deferred whether that was built into the contract or not. He can’t legally take an action because it’s a contract he signed but technically he is still owed that money. Also, he is owed bonuses. He...

    The Departure Lounge Summer 2022

    If we can get a good fee then we should be moving Bailly on. He’s a great defender on his day or an absolute car crash - there isn’t much in between. That kind of sums him as a defender, as well as the injury problems.
  27. SuperRash

    Frenkie de Jong

    To be honest, I think they are that despicable that they may take that route. It seems to be very much of the story that either he moves on to us or anyone, or take a pay cut. If I was him I would very much say no to all their demands. But if they did start to get funny and ruin his potential...

    Frenkie de Jong

    Well said Gary. By all accounts though, FDJ looks like he may have bought into staying at Barca and accepting a pay cut - which essentially means he’s forfeited his deferred wages. Surely someone doesn’t love a club enough to be railroaded like this? A joke of a club and I’m surprised anyone...

    Left in the code just in case anyone has any issues. So, I’ve put Lingard into my team, felt very dirty doing it. But just have a feeling he may be quite effective for Forest. I may see sense though and take him out before the season starts.!

    Frenkie de Jong

    There is a difference between starting out there as a youngster and being shunted back there, especially when you have been at the top of your game in CM for a few years. Just smells of another disgraceful tactic by Barca to force him out.
  35. SuperRash

    Apparently playing FDJ as centre back in their pre-season games. Are they just trolling him at this point? Trying to make things as uncomfortable for him as possible so he will leave?

    The absolute state of Barcelona as a football club - would be real karma if they did go out of business at some point.

    While I don’t believe Morgan for one minute, I can believe that is maybe where Ronaldo’s head is at. He came here and probably thought he could turn us around but it didn’t work out that way. I don’t begrudge him wanting to leave and it is probably best if he does. We have looked fluid in...

    Martial, Rashford and Bruno as the front three seems to be gelling quite nicely! If Martial hadn’t flattered to deceive in the past, I would say I would be quite excited about his form. It is only pre-season but the signs are very promising.
  48. SuperRash

    I think Toney can really move onto the next level so would be very well up for a move. However, like JC said I think the absolute minimum they would accept right now is £50m.

    Frenkie de Jong

    A very poor take on the situation. He wants his money and is not willing to compromise which is absolutely fair enough. If you were owed millions in unpaid wages then you would be the same. I don’t read anything to him going on their tour either. This move isn’t 100% going to happen so he still...

    Glad we got this over line, will add some creativity and guile to our midfield which is a little short on options. Think he will have a good stint with us.

    I wouldn’t rule out ETH seeing him as an option as a deep lying midfielder. He has great ability on the ball and he’s not exactly slow.

    Decent little run out today. It’s obviously only pre-season but I thought he was pretty impressive. Still a little raw but has good technique and confidence on the ball. Could definitely grow into a first team role as looks like ETH rates him highly.

    Ten Hag confirms Harry Maguire to continue as captain

    There are usually two/three central defenders in a team right? Hypothetically speaking, he would100% start for both Liverpool and City and I think he would make a very good partner for either Dias or Van Dijk.

    Bergwijn from what I have seen is a winger who can play on right or left? So it could be a direct replacement for Antony. Spurs have done a great job selling him for that money - the only thing I can remember him doing is scoring against City on his debut.

    I don’t think being smaller means he will be terribly exposed. However, I would be worried at the lack of height overall in the team. We’ve lost Matic and Pogba’s height who both used to be decent at defending our box.
  117. SuperRash

    Ronaldo Has Left - He's gone and it's the past.

    I don’t think they would sell and his price has dropped dramatically after a difficult season last year. Would probably take Isak as a replacement actually after thinking about some options. Failing that, we’ve got Rashford and Martial. :)
  118. SuperRash

    Ronaldo Has Left - He's gone and it's the past.

    If he wants to go then that’s fine - for our progression it may not be the worst thing in the world. Not entirely sure where he would go though. Could do a farewell at Sporting I guess but have a feeling he’ll probably want one final crack at the CL with a club who is in the mix.
