Hoping im wrong, mind; but he looks a bit of a broken man to me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rosco 1127 Posted November 26 Share Posted November 26 If Pope starts at weekend it’s 50/50 good/bad game and if starting he better pray he doesn’t drop one, cos you can guarantee Everton will try put him under pressure…..Let’s not take that risk DROP HIM NOW Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Alright, Roy Keane... 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He must have dug himself a canny deep hole after fruitlessly screaming at Aubameyang. Howe's withholding his ladder privileges until he says he's sorry.

I think this is possibly the best outcome really. Howe doesn't have to make a decision. Both players unaffected in that regard. Ramsdale knows he has 6 + games to show his worth, so he's not getting bounced out after 1 or 2 errors. If Ramsdale is shit then Pope comes back in and won't probably be here after his loan spell. If not, then Pope is probably gone at the end of the year anyway and we have a decision on Ramadale or Trafford perhaps, where I think the former goes if we go for the latter again. Ramsdale isn't playing second fiddle for years at this stage of his career. The only bad outcome for us is if he has an absolute stinker ans costs us in numerous games but to be honest, Pope had got that way the last 6 weeks. Edit. Or if Ramsdale gets injured too......

OTF 10528 Posted December 3 Share Posted December 3 I can't see Ramsdale being the long term option if we wish to proceed. He could be a long term backup option though if he's happy to have a Harperesque career here. Otherwise it looks likely that he'll continue to be a journeyman keeper. At this stage I reckon we could push to get Trafford in in January if Man City are ok with Ortega as their backup. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hopefully Ramsdale changes that view over the next few games. We clearly want Trafford and he rightly appears to be unsettled as a no 2 & we've be known to target the same players over multiple windows. I'm not 100% convinced by Trafford but the club appear to favour that direction. He's not joining in a world cup year to be second choice though. He should have several though and won't displace small arms this summer anyway. If he is available in January, we will find out how ruthless we are going to be as we grow. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Quite possibly, but if they want Tino it’s highly unlikely we can do much about him going anyway. We can probably put them off until the summer (at best). 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It'll be impossible to blame Tino if he does go as well. He's fucking brilliant, and that lot promise trophies and a huge bump in wages. Just need to make sure we extract maximum value in any fee. And I don't even want to hear from anyone who think they would stay with us if it was them. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Craig 12326 Posted December 3 Share Posted December 3 We have, IMO the best full back pairing in the league. And whilst the media wax lyrical about Timber & Califiori, I'm happy for our pairing to remain mainly under the radar. Hall's deliveries have been nothing short of world class. Best LB I've seen during my time. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Best LB I've seen during my time. I'm not sure how under the radar they're going to be tbh, both should be going into the World Cup squad quite easily. I'm expecting Tino to be the subject of pretty endless speculation for a Man City move as well. if Reece James stays fit (which is a bigger if than either of our lads) then I'd expect Tino and Hall to be Englands left back options.

He hasn’t got Tino’s pace to get up and down but he’s quick enough, his delivery is first class and I love how he has a trick to buy a yard and progress the ball out of tight area Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
