    I'm with you on that - most people want stability in their working life and football managers are no different with the obvious exception that sackings yield a pile of cash, which doesn't happen in civvie street. Worthy of comment also is that buying these sorts of players means a new manager...

    Sandro Tonali

    It's just a marketing person's latest idea. Don't over think it, by Christmas we will have moved on to something else.

    Cristian Romero

    There's some sense in this. There were moments last season where he got a booking or dismissal for something that another player without the reputational baggage would not have got. He's seen, rightly and wrongly as a thug, and that impacts his ability to play for us. I gather he wants to stay...

    Luka Vuskovic

    It appears that its a set of circumstances here. RdZ has established we need senior first choice players, and based on the second half of 2024, pretty much the whole of 2025 and then last season we need far more mental strength and grit. The easiest way to achieve that is with established...

    What's good is we are bringing players early so we can get them bedded in for pre season, but also not waiting to sell before we buy. It's vital now though that we shift on those we don't want. There is a big noise that Romero wants to be part of Zerbolution now, so as long as he isn't captain...

    Luka Vuskovic

    It's sad to see him go but it's also partially funding one of the most momentus weeks in our history - I mean - come on - Martin Dubravka!! 🤪 In all seriousness losing a guy who wants to go and who is unproven in the league for that amount of money is good business today. It might not be if he...

    I'm not saying everyone has done that mate. But what I will say is that if you ask anyone who plays the game who the next big things are they will say Tel, Estevao and Evan Ferguson. Why? Because the stats which form the basis of that game show those three with the highest of high ceilings.

    Johan Lange - Sporting Director

    You're entitled to your opinion, and I agree there were some dreadful tactics, but the team definitely stopped playing for Frank, and never really turned up for Tudor.

    Read the last line of what I wrote.

    Lucas Bergvall

    He's been a very popular player on football manager for about four iterations now. I think that has a lot to do with it. Seriously.

    Johan Lange - Sporting Director

    My issues with Lange sit more in his selecting Thomas Frank and then Tudor. The man he announced to replace the first manager to bring us a trophy in a generation turned out to be statistically worse than Christan Gross, who I think we pretty much all agree was the worst manager we had in the...

    Lucas Bergvall

    In amongst the deadwood departures this summer it feels like there's going to be some painful ones too. Bergvall is a great prospect but if we do sign tonali or Hernandes or both (which I think is unlikely) then he's unlikely to get a look in. I'd move mountains to keep both Bergvall and Gray...

    World Cup 2026: Mexico, USA and Canada

    Not sure if it's been mentioned but Corluka is on the coaching team tonight for Croatia. Vuskovic has looked a little out of his depth at points.

    I really hope there's a plan to clear the decks coming with this. We will have three seasoned pros in defence shortly that will swell the ranks in an area we are already well stocked in terms of numbers, if not necessarily quality. Phillips, Dorrington, Byfield, Vuskovic, Davies, Danso...
