100% correct. Managers do small things that self-sabotage their tenures. If you do enough of them, you sink. Moyes has laid the early groundwork here and he's going to need a lot of luck not to see this Keane decision blow up in his face. One...

4th choice is a myth when there’s two CB positions. He’s one maybe two injuries suspensions away from playing in the first team. He’s effectively first or second reserve at best. That means he will be playing, and when Keane plays mistakes happen...

extending Branthwaite is great but serious questions needs to be asked around Keane extending.

Trying to bury the Keggers news there amongst all the positives. 😆

A goal scoring, creative, right side attacker would be the key. We need to spend big on this position to elevate us to a potential top half finish.

Got them all apart from Branth. There’s a mystery fifth man!

…I think the Tarkowski injury is of major concern, given it required an operation and his age. Moyes will have been delighted that O’Brien covered just as effectively at CB, not forgetting we didn’t concede at Newcastle with Keane alongside. I...

”Tried his best” is all anyone can ask of any player. To suggest otherwise makes no sense whatsoever. The reason we have been so bad for 35 years is people in charge of the club recruiting and paying players, whose best is miles from good...

Tuchels gone in a year hopefully

Regardless of whether he signs or leaves, you have to think that most strikers would have struggled in Dyches system over the year and a half while he was in charge. For me the injury frailty is the biggest concern

I feel sorry for him. He's a good lad and when fully fit he's a real handful I think of palace and the RS at home. But he's rarely fit and when he's just coming back from injury he's poor. Just can't rely on him

Respectfully, I’m sick of having a left winger shoved on that side to ‘do a job’ Can you name the last time we had a proper right winger? I genuinely can’t. It’s been the biggest area of negligence for years now. It’s outdated to have all of the...

doesn’t sound too dissimilar to Beto… I know I’m seriously in the minority here but I would go big with wingers/midfielders over a striker. Do we think Moyes wants to sell Beto?

tuchel is a complete fraud.

I don’t know where this ‘rarely played’ narrative has come from He’s been there four seasons and made 39, 50, 36 and 32 appearances in arguably the best team in the world over those four years. The majority of those are premier league games too...
