Holden McGroin

That’s exactly how I imagine Wyki looks like

What quality is that?

You got a direct line to Romano?

It’s called a realist. Or pessimist. Somewhere in between, maybe.

I’d be tempted to play Joelinton on left, Gordon or Miggy on right and Longstaff in middle. id also start Wilson. Might need a goal poached.

This has got defeat written all over it lads.

Cucurella deal fell through so now they’re going for Reguilon on loan. Gravenberch off to Liverpool. Hopefully Salah replacement

He tends to play from the left so Trippier and schar will be his direct opponents. Lascelles might have to come in for this one. 🫢

Man City group is piss easy.

Aye, for both player and club.

Man City won’t fancy coming here tbh. Interesting to see team selections by both teams.

Don’t worry. Any misfiring players will be shipped off to Saudi for handsome fees next summer.

Good luck getting a job.

This still stings so im refusing to discuss it any further. Onto the next game lads.

I was just choosing a random good midfielder. I almost went Toni Kroos.

Aye, you can only work under a budget with no vision to sell. He was on par with what we were as a club then. And thats probably being a bit unfair on him.

Rafa: "Can you buy me Luka Modric?" Mike: "How about Isaac Hayden?"

Lenglet signing on loan for Villa. I hope we can pinch someone decent on loan but I reckon our business is done.

Cucurella off to Man Utd on loan. £2m seems like decent deal if they can get him playing well. Chelsea on the other hand….must be desperate to trim wage bill.

Burn will be fine to cover. Nunez is lightening quick and was left one on one with him. He’d beat most CBs in league in a foot race. I’m more worried about schar getting injured.

Say he is on £40k a week. Thats £4m in wages. Say we offered 2m in settlement. Depending on his injury (and I’m just guessing he failed a medical) he might not get another team so he’d be throwing away £2m of personal wealth. If he is fit enough then we might as well just keep him in hope someone takes him in loan for next 2 seasons until his contract expires.

You know some Mackem lurker is going to read and believe this?

Does ANYTHING not wind you up? There must be something.

Sounds like he failed a medical which sounds pretty bad for a season long loan. Hope it’s not too bad for the lad.

I shall be in attendance for this one. It will be a tough game and we’ll likely have much less of the ball so will need to be lethal on the break. I should have also started the the thread to continue my unbeaten run.
