    I'm not really a fan of the leaked design but I never really know what people expect with these things to be honest. It looks like a kit, same as they all do. It's not particularly out of keeping with what most clubs have as far as I can see.

    It’s not even just the recruitment. Lookman and Moise Kean are both good players but couldn’t perform here for some reason. Then there’s the injuries. There’s been far too many of that have robbed players of their careers here. No one is...

    Lanolin replied to the thread Confirmed Signing Jack Grealish.
    Are we still talking about Grealish here?! He plays in the same position as Ndiaye, so you can't just randomly have him replacing someone else in a different position and act like it makes no difference, and he's only ever scored 8 goals in a...

    Agreed. What we have been poor at recently is finding those hidden gems for <10m and making them into 50m players.

    We definitely took risks last summer. Both on Ndiaye and JOB. Same on players like Beto in the year before. We take risks.
  • Lanolin
    I'm not sure it's right that we don't take risks, it's more that too many of the risks we've taken haven't paid off. There's a bit of a boring, easily disproved, notion that we only sign players with PL experience but we've signed players from...

    Lanolin replied to the thread Confirmed Signing Jack Grealish.
    It's just opinion obviously, but for me no. I'd guess there'd be a sizeable loan fee, huge wages, and he plays the same position (in a similar way) to our best attacking outlet at the moment. All in all it's just not a particularly appealing move...

    Well, you just have.

    I don't think many people are saying he's literally not good enough to get a game for us are they? It's more that all things considered he wouldn't be a very good signing.

    Over time, I don't think this would be true though. The appeal of the PL as a global entertainment package is that many of the best players and biggest stars play here. I'm assuming part of the appeal from any given nation is the fact that some...

    I don't judge others, if he's contrite then he's contrite but I fail to see why he's getting so much aggro over a tasteless pun on words. We're not the thought police or moral police after all
  • Lanolin
    To be fair he’s really really sorry and wishes he hadn’t posted it, unless you suggest he shouldn’t have posted it, in which case he’s shocked. Standard.

    Well we live in a democracy so free speech and all that unless it's a hate crime which it wasn't in the slightest
