I remembered writing this back in December about a far less meaningful game against Man Utd. Didn't actually think we'd ever really do it properly...

Btw definitely sort Isak out now. 100%. Not arguing against that for a damn second.

Fair, but like... They need to replace TAA with someone quality. You'd think that's going to run them north of 60-70m. It's clear that they don't have anyone else who can create to a high standard. They have to replace Salah on right wing. I suppose they could spend on Isak and go weak on right instead but that doesn't "improve" them and their system is already set up around what they have. Isak doesn't replace Salah. So for me they need to spend big on RW, TAA replacement (somewhere in the field) and then to add Isak for 150m on top? Are they gonna be spending close to 300m this summer..?

Even more to the point then. How many years does Isak have left? If it's 2 then maybe it happens, but at 3 there's no chance.

They'll be getting buttons for Salah surely. And TAA is out of contract? How would they even finance Isak.

So is this still real then?

Tonali also superb mind. And looked properly into the celebrations too. Going into this summer with a trophy, and the spending money we have coming... if we can get CL on top then idk man, we could be about to see something special.

This is why we don't fuck with the one rule

It's not JUST winning a fucking trophy, it's turning over fucking Liverpool to do it. That is exactly what we needed to actually kick on a level and Howe and the lads fucking did it. I know I came out beforehand and said I thought we could win but honestly it was the most slender of hopes. Eddie Howe, for me, is now a club legend. Along with half that fucking team. Winning that might even keep the likes of Isak around in the summer, it proves we actually can succeed. FFS it's huge. So proud of the club. And as I've seen a few people on here say now - I love all of you. Wouldn't be the same to enjoy these moments without you all. Cheers lads, and congrats.

MY FUCKING GOD. I NEVER THOUGHT I'D SEE THE FUCKING DAY MAN...

Fuck me I could cry, need to hold it together ffs

My mental image also has him screaming intelligibly and frothing at the mouth.

Right, fuck it, if we don't go into this behind the team then what is the fucking point. We absolutely can win this. It'll be stressful beyond belief, we'll all lose years off the end of our lives, but in the end that's what this club is all about. Sending everyone who loves it to an early grave. Our midfield is better than theirs. Our forward is better at least in all around play. Our defense is capable of being really damn good. We can win this, and I choose to believe we will.

That used underwear reference remains the eternal warning in my head against saying anything flippant on the internet It can and will be used against you forever.

Is that true? I thought he'd gone to Villa and started setting the world alight based on the spin after that first game
