    Guglielmo Vicario

    I think someone else said the same in the Bergvall thread. Largely agree with that sentiment as new, young players should be eased into the team. I imagine Vicario probably told Bergvall it was something in the heat of the moment. Either way, I do think it's best for Vicario to try and be calm...

    Vicario let him have it lol. That is a true baptism.

    Putin & Russia

    There's liveuamap as well which is decent, but I find it's sometimes too cluttered and was also very slow-loading (seems rectified now). The guy running the google map I linked is some kind of academic or research fellow-type, not just an armchair redditor.

    Oliver Skipp

    Of course I'm wishing him all the best. I wanted him to be good for us but I get that injuries etc. might have derailed that. Deserves to play at the highest level even if it's not at the very peak.

    Wilson Odobert

    I think our new approach has way more value. Actually getting in young players with potential vs. literal bench fodder is something I've been wanting to see for a while now. I think the last time I got excited about a "big" signing was Rafa VdV from Real. I think one-offs like that can still...

    Putin & Russia

    In case anyone needs one, this is an excellent map that's updated regularly of the conflict: https://www.google.com/maps/d/embed?mid=1lscRK6ehG0l2V-XvJ16nsyblMsQ&ll=51.30863164145994%2C34.99051123417736&z=10

    Jamie Donley

    I was responding to a comment about playing in the Championship vs. L1, so it's about the level he's playing at as well. Otherwise... yeah, stating the obvious.

    Jamie Donley

    I guess the positive is that theoretically, he'll be playing a lot of minutes there. I'm thinking he will definitely make them better.

    Yves Bissouma

    He definitely needs some perspective, ironically. I'm totally fine with Gray/Bergvall taking his spot, even Devine or another youth player would be good. If a player isn't hungry enough, it's their spot to lose and Ange needs to set the right example.

    Dominic Solanke

    It has :D It's a good watch for sure. I'm not someone who's followed Solanke too closely so it was a good crash course on what he could bring to the team. My only real question is how dependent Bournemouth were on Solanke. Obviously from all their send-offs and goodbye messages, it seems like...

    Pre Season 2024

    I am guessing Ange will probably not start too many youngsters again, despite them being more deserving IMO. Either way, this pre-season has been a testament to the youth team and their coaching staff. And I know Moore's birthday is on Sunday but that would be a real present to be given a start...

    Emerson Royal

    Had a few excellent games for us... almost became undroppable when Porro arrived but I think long-term, this is the best move for all involved. Wish him the best. Arrivederci Emerson.

    Lucas Bergvall

    Who do you think should be our starting midfield trio? You can watch the extended highlights to have some context of how the entire team is performing. Highlights are obviously hyper-focused, and I think if they show all of a player's touches, they can be useful for judging a performance...

    Pre Season 2024

    At the end of the day, the only person I can really blame is the manager as they're the one putting out the team. Just speaking for myself. Agreed regarding Maddison's early-season form, but I don't think he did himself any favors with the way he played when coming back from his injury. However...

    Lucas Bergvall

    He's even moving as he's passing, making himself immediately available for the return lay-off. This is what we need: thinking ahead a pass or two, and MOVEMENT.

    Jamie Donley

    This may be controversial, but IMO we've missed Modric more than Bale. I'm not trying to suggest that Donley can replace him, but I do feel like we need a player in midfield who can retain, dictate tempo, and pass (to start an attack, not sling it sideways). I've liked what I've seen of Donley...

    Archie Gray

    Hopping off one hype train (Moore) and onto another. I'm excited about this player, too. Definitely expect him to start matches early in the season. Yup, dooming him with expectation already but I don't care. Midfield is where you win or lose the game (drawing is the same as losing for me), so...

    Mikey Moore

    Very valid regarding how youth players should be rated. Anyway, I will say that he obviously needs to keep working hard, but I'm not worried about LW or maybe even AM? I mean, in reality he will be drifting throughout the entirety of the final third, whether crossing or making late runs to take...
