    2025/26 Thierno Barry

    My biggest issue with him is his positioning. He constantly takes himself out of scoring opportunities. He always runs behind the defender to the back, away from the ball. This puts a defender now between him and any potential goal, and means it has to get through EVERYBODY before he can get...

    Match Thread Chelsea 2-0 Everton. Sat Dec 13th. 3pm

    Well, played with them for almost all of it, missed some opportunities, and then showed once again our lack of fullbacks. A couple missed opportunities because JOB cant cross, and a goal given up because Myko is too slow. We are two fullbacks away from being able to beat teams like this...

    Match Thread Chelsea 2-0 Everton. Sat Dec 13th. 3pm

    Well, I have questions, but I'm willing to see how that works out. The only thing I really hope is that the confidence Barry got from that goal changes everything for him

    Yeah, I think thats going to be very interesting to see. I think he puts Gana back in even just to rest someones legs, considering he wont be able to for the next month. I wonder if he gives Garner a game off as hes played literally every minute so far.

    2025/26 Dwight McNeil

    I think either McNeil will do well in Ndiaye's absence, or he wont. Controversial I know. But I actually think theres a decent chance our preferred system attacking on Grealish's side suits him. Then he can collapse in and striker crosses with his left foot on the backside of the defence...

    Today’s Football 25/26 Season

    lol and some people say football isnt corrupt. But it helps a PL team get another spot, and helps them lose more league games.

    2025/26 James Garner

    While it used to be more prevalent, in the last week alone weve seen "Would hope we move on" and "let him go and get the most you can for him". Getting pennies for him is the same to me, until we have better players its suicidal to move out your performers because someone is enamored with...

    2025/26 James Garner

    Im not sure how anyone thinks we shouldnt extend him, but then again Ive heard that kind of stuff every year. When he was here we remember what was said about Lukaku by a minority, but disappointing large minority, of fans.

    2025/26 Kiernan Dewsbury-Hall

    Well, he said he was an 8 and he certainly staked his claim today. I think most people try and shoe horn him into a 10 because of his pace, and his small size. But they forget that playing as a CM isnt about size, its about mentality. If you have the aggression and strength for it, even as a...

    Match Thread Everton 3-0 Notts Forest. Sat 6th December

    Great performance today, exactly the big win I was thinking we needed to ease some tensions. This squad, despite the struggles at full back and striker, is legitimately a european side. Im not suggesting thats hard these days, but we have been conditioned for years to think the premier league...

    2025/26 Charly Alcaraz

    He is such a force when hes in the match, I think hes really well suited to the physicality of the premier league. He has such a high motor, and puts such pressure on that you know opposing midfielders hate going against him. To me he has shown his ceiling is really high, he just needs to...

    Relegation Thread 25-26

    Is there any other club in the top half with an open relegation thread on their forum? Or are we trend setting again?

    Really glad he got one, and hope this is an opening of the floodgates. Hopefully it completely changes his confidence and touch. For the record the finish was really nice hitting a real tight window perfectly.
