    Transfer thread

    There is no such thing as a guarantee. And Hackney is far too talented for the Championship, just like Wharton was just like Bowen etc It's not a certainty we can attract the likes of Wharton in our current plight, and if that's the case then Hackney is absolutely fine....

    Transfer thread

    Was about to say the same, this isn't prime Barca with Messi et al up front. Raphina was decent but hardly a world beater and has been their main man there. Gordon is a very good player and 70m for him at 25 years of age and best years ahead is a decent deal....

    Marcos Senesi

    I know you and others are sceptical about what they say, and that's fair - you can only really judge on past behaviour. But I don't think these people are stupid, and for them to consistently make so much noise about them spending I do believe they are looking to do so. But whether you believe...

    Marcos Senesi

    Obviously the out of contract players who we had pre agreed deals with were going to be the first through the door. There will quite obviously be more to come, and those of genuine quality costing money are going to take longer to get through the door. We didn't even know what division we was...

    Thomas Frank - Former Head Coach

    It almost happened because we had unprecedented injuries that almost any PL club outside of City and the Goons would struggle to cope with (especially with CL football aswell), a lot of backup players that either aren't ready or not up to being at the desired level and a manager that wasn't...

    Vinai Venkatesham - CEO

    Yeah, I don't think Frank is a bad coach - I just don't think he's going to be at home at the bigger clubs. I just don't subscribe into the fact our football has to be what it was under Frank, he had players capable of producing better and there was no excuse for how bad some of our metrics...

    Vinai Venkatesham - CEO

    The Tottenham side he inherited could play better football than just rely on a set piece or hope Kudus comes up with something which was the crux of it under Frank. De Zerbi showed without any sort of pre season we could play better football (no one is saying that football has been...

    Andy Robertson

    So because we finished 17th, you have to say every player is great and performs to a really high level? Ok sure. I've no skin in the game with Robertson, but I have seen him plenty this season where I thought he looked well off the player he used to be and this was before I knew we was in for...

    That's fair Steff, not sure I'd say he was lying though? Jose has extreme self confidence as any manager of his stature would have, and I don't doubt for a second that he believed he could do better with that squad - he just couldn't deliver....

    Thomas Frank - Former Head Coach

    Problem with that stat is that most of his points came at the start, he was picking up next to no points for some time and was only taking us down.....

    Andy Robertson

    People always complain about the first signing unless it's 'the one' as if no deals happen afterwards. This was always going to be one of the first deals considering it was literally done in January. You think a club that just squeezed through relegation is going to sign top players at the...

    Andy Robertson

    I usually agree with you mate, but having seen a good few of his appearances this season he has dropped off massively. There could be reasons for that, not writing him off at all but based purely on last season there is no way I'd have him ahead of (a fit) Udogie and I say that as someone who...

    Andy Robertson

    Im not arguing with the theory of experience and like I say if RDZ wants him fine. My only concern is on the pitch - Udogie is injury prone, and I don't trust Robertson to be relied upon consistently and im assuming if he comes Souza would be loaned out. However with no Europe hopefully it...

    Andy Robertson

    Because they're talking about his quality over all the years he has been there, not where he is at now. Son is many people's favourite player here, that doesn't change the fact his levels had dropped a lot over the past couple of years - it's natural. If RDZ wants him for whatever reason...

    The Pitch and serious injuries

    That's not necessarily how it works. Our players played on that pitch well over 20 times last season. Opposition plays on it once a season - doesn't mean you get injured on it first game you step on the pitch, can be gradual over a number of games....

    Thomas Frank - Former Head Coach

    I think it's partly because 1) A lot of the media were wrong about Frank, and they are always more quiet about things they get wrong 2) Frank is just very non descript, nice guy but no great personality/doesn't sell stories 3) Frank was very media friendly, wouldn't upset anyone. Where as...

    Next seasons squad

    Yeah I was about to post the same - I understand the experience angle and it is of course important. I want more like Palhinha's experience and attitude in the team. But it's also important they are good on the pitch too. I've seen him a fair bit this season and he has been average to poor...
