Think Myko trained so he may get some minutes too. Not sure if Aznou is fit and I might start Beto instead, Barry to start against Wolves on Saturday. I reckon Dibling may come off the bench but will hopefully get involved.

Here we are….

Can’t disagree with that, startling thing is the number of players though. We are so light as a squad.

I’d be careful of that, it’s indicative but some of the values are mental. Gueye who is one of our better players and would likely get games for all those teams is valued around 1.5m. Value sometimes doesn’t equate to quality. Armstrong is another, £800k?? I don’t think so…

Keane was nowhere near our worst player. Gueye was absolutely shocking, as were Beto, O’Brien, Alcaraz. The tactics and set up were a complete mystery to me - what were the players told to do this evening? That was an absolutely horrendous performance. Get a specialist RB, DM and RW, not that deep.

I am a bit surprised at it to say the least 🤦🏻‍♂️

Couldn’t say about anyone else with insider knowledge posting or not posting, not sure who else knows much. Put it this way, if I ever knew anything I’d never do it publicly because the grief you get for doing so just isn’t worth it.

I get it, you don’t like him. I think it’s good to hear things, we are all desperate for news. I think they get totally unnecessary grief which goes way too far. If people don’t like it, or monetising things, fine, move on. The stick they get is completely uncalled for in my opinion.

So if that happened I don’t agree with that. It’s certainly not a recent thing and the grief that they get currently isn’t fair on this issue.

Can’t ever recall that and it’s certainly not something that’s happened recently

Yup, players literally talk all the time, they all know each other anyway

This is absolutely spot on, it makes absolutely no difference to anyone

I just want to clarify that teams know before the press do who is lining up for whatever side. The press then get the team sheets; if someone gets that team sheet and shares it, there is no advantage to anyone as all the important people know what’s happening already.

It’s happening

Duke Street market is really nice, really wide range of food, just order food and drinks at your table.

Great article 👍🏻

Ta mate, worth a trip that

Is the bar open now Bobbler? Fancy a mooch around the club shop over the next few days with some liquid refreshment.

Thanks for replying mate 👍🏻

Anything on Dibling Paddy?

Roma ticket came about an hour ago, season ticket yesterday 👍🏻

Just looking at the new stadium on Google Maps. Are there any plans for the land on Charing Docks opposite Dublin Street and Dickson Street? Just seems like a bit of a wasteland at the moment?

As I don’t know everything about the finances involved, or what we may have lined up elsewhere, I’m sure there is a reason we didn’t go for those players. The fact so many out of contract players are still out of contract suggests that what they are demanding might be excessive.

I haven’t forgotten at all, I know how many we need to sign but I’m also aware that you can’t just make the market work, it depends on loads of other things happening unless you are one of the clubs seemingly immune from PSR. We need better players than we have and I’m sure we’ll get them.

Not at all, but it’s quite obvious that every team outside the top 6 is not really making signings, certainly not at the level they want/need. Hopefully the market starts to move more now and we get the players we want.

So they had a full squad and lost to Sutton Utd, we were missing three CBs and played a load of players out of position and lost to Bournemouth after we ran out of steam following a decent first half. Good you don’t give a fuck but having perspective is good too.

Wouldn’t worry about that, he’ll be with us next year now. We do need some players in though, quick

Keane struggling with a knock I think, Onyangi will be on 2nd half I think, bench is v light. Hopefully that changes soon

Looks 5-4-1, but midfield is a bit weird. May be Ndiaye and Alcaraz a bit wider behind Beto
