Will be starting Leeds away for sure. It is a Farke team and they'll be desperate to get off to a good start at home so expect they'll play a high line and he'll get opportunities on the break. Think Barry will be eased in and we'll see him more in the home games in the opening weeks.

I see Holgate a bit like Godfrey. Was decent enough player for first few years and seemingly lost all that ability overnight in second part of 2021. Keane, Holgate and Godfrey all as regular starters for months on end in that period. It genuinely is a minor miracle the club stayed in the prem...

Would be the Doucs replacement for sure with his physical presence. Could see him chipping in 5-6 goals in the prem no problem from set pieces.

Hutchinson going from Ipswich to Brentford for 35m +, Mbuemo replacement. Would've liked him here as he has talent as shown in England under 21s. Still need to properly sort out that right hand side before everyone can get properly excited for the season as that is one area of the pitch that...

Pretty much. Anyone expecting him to be miles above Beto is a little too optimistic but double figures in La Liga for CL team also can't just be dismissed. Would be happy with him coming in as DCL replacement.

Same. Interested who the alternative target is. Coufal has a similar profile albeit a bit older. Think a call will be going into his agent soon enough.

The most West Ham signing ever.

I was just going to post that. Longstaff would be the Garner replacement but is he really that much better on what he's produced for Newcastle down the years? Mangala could've been, will never know due to the injury.

The better performances and results tend to happen with him in the team. He's no world beater like Dwight but the stats are usually positive from their involvement in the games they play during a season. He was injured for Dyche's last month or so. Can remember him starting the Spurs game and...

Myko is an awful crosser of the ball generally. From what I've seen Tete provides better for likes of Jimenez/Muniz.

Quite happy with that. Tete had a good season for Fulham a year or two back. Was injured a bit last season and Castagne is a decent enough RB himself. Strength is getting forward on the overlap and getting crosses in.

It won't be Monday night as league cup is the following week. The extra TV games is more showing all the Sunday 2pms live and there will be plenty this season with pretty much half the league in europe.

Brighton last few years have taken the mick coming up to Goodison so hopefully they're not as comfortable at BMD. I can see draws and wins. Wolves had a really poor start last season and are selling key players again so that is a winnable game. Far more confident in starting a season under...

Is Coufal OOC? I would be o.k with him coming in for a season or two if Moyes is looking for experienced head for a season or two while sorting out other positions. He's not amazing but knows Moyes's methods and can overlap and get crosses in competently. Can see logic to testing the water on...

Think this would be a massive error. He looked totally done for Man. City last season. Just last week he was incredibly slow to react to one of the Senegal goals. Would be a very expensive backup so I think he'd be playing most weeks. RB has been a comical position in last five years. Even...
