Is a wholesome, moral billionaire an extinct or never existed species?

This is par for the course with the Premier League and their Judas 6 teams. Everything shrouded in secrecy just like when the Judas 6 were negotiating to set up the European Super League

Remember that the one goal he scored was the winner against West Ham 1-0 at home and that effectively kept us up!

In all the circumstances it didn’t make sense to pay Rondon off if no-one was coming in? The whole organisation seems dysfunctional perhaps highlighted by contract Dave being poached by Man U?

This is exactly the problem. Everyone has an opinion on who they don’t want but there are few positive majorities for any particular candidate. When Howard Kendall (originally) and Joe Royle got the job each was the only real candidate and so everyone just got behind them?

Rooney and Big Dunc. The Dream Team!

Thought he was born in Stoke on Trent and one of his parents had a vague Chilean connection?

Marcus was very influential in getting us top 4 in 2005. Since he left we’ve not come close!

Is Da still playing - loves scoring at Anfield and Frank must know him well ?

I’d have far sooner kept Richarlison. Gordon has potential but he’s nowhere near the level of say Rooney at the same age. Anything around £40 million and I’d snap the buyers hand off?

Somehow I think this could be a good thing? If we could effect a swap of Gordon for Broja and Gallagher at neutral or little cost then that could be a game changer moving forwards?

There are some basic similarities with the initial signings of Peter Reid and Andy Gray in the 1980s and they both turned out ok.

He’s picked number 7. Same as Tricky Trev - another blue wing legend signed from Burnley by another young up and coming manager! The parallels are there.

Kone should have been 99 ?

Can’t see BK ever sanctioning the employment of a proper business football professional. The only time he ever did was Trevor Birch and that lasted just a few weeks
