Keep raging against the machine, Dave.

We just need to put pictures of Chelsea's bench up at Finch Farm. Young talents will soon come around to the idea that if they sign for them, they won't be starting anytime soon. :dodgy: The problem arises when they get told about Strasbourg...

Possibly, mate. He’s just about 33 now and he was playing in a deeper role than the previous seasons, so he didn’t look as prominent on the pitch. His positional play was excellent and he still dictated from deep. Definitely at the stage where...

He'll be known as the Scouse Hakimi in next to no time ;)

Probably just me, then. Like you've said, he was important during the invincible season. Maybe it's just my brain telling me that he had a drop off because Leverkusen weren't as good in general?

I thought he still looked good. He was an important player for them in the invincible season and only missed one game. He’s probably been brought in as back-up from what I’ve seen of our midfield so far in pre-season. Personally think it’s a...

I had to change my email, so I will definitely need it again. Thanks, mate.

Granit Xhaka to Sunderland. Actually think that's a poor signing compared to the rest they've made because it looked like he'd run out of energy the last time I saw him 🤷‍♂️

Got the code to the Lid league, fella? @Neiler So many exciting options at the 4.5m mark in defence, even if they rarely score over 100pts in a season. Rotating them through periods seems the way to go.

Not sure what shops sell cufflinks these days.

Decent business by Brighton. Estupiñan had a period of good form a couple of seasons ago but has been quiet since. Probably right to get an upgrade.

Pervis Estupiñan to AC Milan. Such an upgrade for Brighton replacing him with De Cuyper.

He's correct although Fellows got his form back after Mowbray was sacked for the last few games under Jimmy Morrison. Moyles reminds me more of a Mowbray type of manager than Corberan though

@Littlesue looks like we've got another Baggies expert. Any enlightenment?

Nunez scored an 8 minute hat-trick in a pre-season friendly yesterday. Even the RS I know aren't getting carried away. This thread because of pre-season results is asinine and it goes someway in highlighting our inferiority complex as a fanbase :(
