    Nothing about the boo boys…. It’s average players which don’t really perform. Garner is one of these…. Ok player, but you will get 1 out of 5 good games from him if / when he is fit.

    I think he actually gets remarkably little stick considering the levels he’s reached since being here. People always seem to say airy fairy stuff like ‘you notice more when he’s not playing’ about him to excuse the fact that he very rarely...

    Not arsed in the slightest. Players come and go, always have, always will. He stays I support him, as I do for all our players. He goes, I won't lose any sleep. Meh

    Nah, like I said I think the period of change thing is just him saying there’s been a lot of change around the club in general and I want Coleman to stay for continuity and setting standards. The unprecedented thing is likely just hyperbole to...

    How do we know what offers the club did or didn't receive? Don't get me wrong I'm not sad to see him go and I think we can do better but the suggestion that he wasn't worthy of a transfer fee throughout his tenure can neither be proved or not (...

    Yes, in the same way that I’m not aware of anybody ever bidding for Pickford but I wouldn’t be overly keen on us releasing him tomorrow. I wasn’t saying he was a £100m player, just that he’s clearly good enough to play PL football and has been an...

    But that’s irrelevant to the point I was making isn’t it, so no matter how slowly I read it, it still won’t be a good point.

    It's mostly about profile. As in our midfield lack creativity and give away the ball too often, so we need a tall striker for Pickford to aim at. That is a midfield problem and should be addressed as such. More money should be spent on players...

    So are you suggesting they at no point in his career has his value been higher than zero? Even for you that’s a bit stupid Mike.
  • Lanolin
    I think losing him on a free is a real shame, whatever your stance on him it’s hard to argue that he isn’t a player who would have commanded a pretty decent fee and so getting nothing isn’t great. He’s at the very least a competent centre...

    I think the unprecedented thing is just standard framing to dampen expectation. Pretty much all managers do it, Moyes more than most. Keep telling people that is a massive rebuilding job and unlike anything ever done before and you have a ready...

    I do too but also the dispersal rates and making sure the average attendance over the last century reflects the capacity.

    God you’re absolutely insufferable. I don’t even mute Dave but you’re too much, bye.

    Just out on a run in Marbella and there he was sitting with the family in a restaurant by the beach. I felt like a proper divvy for interrupting but I had to tell him how much I appreciate what he's done for the club. You hear about what a nice...

    Don't forget that Ayoze Perez, previously of Newcastle and Leicester, scored 19 for Villareal playing with Barry.
