    He does have some very similar attributes to Ramsey in terms of carrying the ball forwards. 

    Yeah he does. Rogers is just a bit more skilful.

    No but is a few posters who it seems hate a few players as never provide any constructive criticism and when play well might put in a reluctant one line message

    If you provide constructive criticism you arent a hater 😉

    Fair points and I agree

    Why is it alway HATERS when people say a player isn't doing the business. Has anyone been calling for his extermination? For his family to be persecuted and locked up? 

    It's perfectly possible to not rate a player, to say what you see without being a bloody HATER. The **** polarisation of the Internet boils my piss. 

    Really is cringe when someone comes into a thread to call out the 'haters'. I'm sure the 'haters' probably commented in here anyway, the thread was several pages more after yesterday's game.

    Hojberg has a year left in the summer 15m would get him, would be good back up/competition for Kamara.

    He's not happy with reduced playing time apparently, and Kamara's simply better than him, so he'd be unhappy here as well.

  5. Which season will that have been?

    Quote

    Aston Villa fans joke that Youri Tielemans 'can't buy a start' for the club, but was scoring for free with Belgium, netting twice in the first-half against England

    So not only do the DM pay people to lazily share tweets from random people, they also pay people to share tweets from random people that are complete nonsense.

    'Can't buy a start' wtf...

    9 cup finals. Here we go. Anyone else buzzing?

    Better weather and lighter nights on the horizon, huge league run-in and a Conference League quarter-final, damn right I'm buzzing.

    Was also told a story about how he approached one of our current players to have a chat who told him in no uncertain terms to f*** off. The player probably didn't realise who he was being approached by but that individual could never hold a torch to the bloke he dismissed. Sid hadn't forgotten that moment so it obviously still bothered him.

    Can you share who that was? Maybe best for PM!

    Yeah its just scare tactics in end but if Palace can get 45 million five years ago for a very limited Wan Bissaka then we should easily get similar for Cash

    Some fans think we are punching above our weight and happy accept minimal bids for players

    We won't get near 45m for Cash. Wan-Bissaka had a very good reputation when United bought him.

    Maguire shouldn't even be on the plane, the 4 centre backs should be Konsa, Stones, Branthwaite, Colwill

    And bang there goes Snoozegate's go to attacking tactic - Maguire shoulder riding on set pieces.

    I don’t think Trez had the attributes to make it to a higher level with us - but when we needed him, his goals helped keep us in the league.

    Take your point but I also wonder how many points his abysmal decision making in the final third cost us. Don't mind AEG - timid player but he had some ability.

    Re Bellingham, not sure what to make of the arrogance reports but more generally I think it’s his mentality that makes him such an elite player. He’s got good footwork and is a great athlete but I don’t think his skill is necessarily ballon d’or level. I’d even argue that foden has got more natural skill. But the difference is that Bellingham has elite mentality in games to grab it by the scruff of the neck and make things happen. He craves the big stage and always steps up for England despite being only 20 years old which is pretty incredible while foden and others underperform. See this article as an insight into how he prepares mentally for each game: https://madridistanews.com/en/news/detail/jude-bellingham-reveals-his-ritual-before-each-game

    Maybe arrogance is a consequence of that. It need not be but if it is I’m happy to take the rough with the smooth given his performance level 

    Yeah, Foden has hardly any impact on games. I'm convinced Palmer would be a better option for the RW. But when Saka's back, he'll play there anyway.

    It's Paqueta. To be fair he does make up for it by scoring a last minute penalty!

    I rate Paqueta but he has to shoot with his right there after the miscontrol! Maybe the miscontrol ruined his confidence on that foot though 😂

    Is that Antony making a complete mess of that? Trying to finish with his left? 🤦‍♂️

    Edit: can't be but it's still awful whoever it is.

    That's what the 2nd striker role is going to be for England, come on with 10 mins left and chase things down

    It won't be though, Kane will play every minute
