    Thomas Frank - Head Coach

    Last season the masses were claiming 17th was nowhere near where we should be with this set of players and because of it Ange had to go - that 17th place finish sure seems to be doing a lot of heavy lifting now. Having acquired Kudus, Palhinha, Simons, Muani, at the expense of a declining Son...

    Thomas Frank - Head Coach

    There are plenty of ex footballers out there criticising Frank too? If with the squad we have we were playing better football and were sitting say 7th in the table, no one would be batting an eyelid and be saying 'Wow, Frank has us punching with the players he has at his disposal'. It would have...

    Radu Drăgușin

    Well Min-hyeok clearly had a good loan, featuring most weeks for Portsmouth and good enough for the Championship top team wanting him for the second half of the season....

    Radu Drăgușin

    Agree, I think Vuskovic will be better off with one more season on loan. He wanted to go out on loan this season because he wanted to play, and unless one of our big CBs are off this summer then I don't see him massively going up the pecking order. One more season in Germany or wherever and...

    Thomas Frank - Head Coach

    So then you could apply this theory to most of our coaches and none of them should have been sacked. Or Mourinho should have done a great job because of how predecessor Poch did here right? The fact is there is no magic formula for managers at our level. It is easier for as Brighton/Brentford...

    Thomas Frank - Head Coach

    Just one of the reasons I love my club - It's an absolute basket case of a club and has been all the years Ive known it and wouldn't want it any other way :)....

    Souza

    It's good to know that our first choice LB is someone who for half the season is injured, and a quarter of the time is playing himself into fitness and form - incase you hadn't noticed since his first few months at the club he has not been that great. This Souza I will assume judging by our...

    Randal Kolo Muani

    Yes, for the most part I've been very much with you in what you say about squad quality. I just believe there are levels and we aren't as bad as what we have been producing on the whole. Like you say, end of season is a better time to critique with a better picture of the positives and negatives....

    Souza

    Well he should be thinking that anyway....

    Randal Kolo Muani

    Simons is also a link player and has been very good at it in past seasons. Part of it is on Muani himself but the manager has to take part of the blame for not getting these players going. We have holes in the squad for sure where the quality needs to be measurably improved, but the idea it's...

    *** The official 2025/26 Premier League thread ***

    Not really. City have to be winning home games like last night, they have to gain a load of points on the Goons and so when the goons drop points they need to have taken advantage which they didn't....

    Micky van de Ven

    But he's an asset that we likely won't want to run down his contract and leave for free considering the fee we would likely get for him. So if he's not signing an extension with a couple of years left, conversations would likely start to be had if he's not happy....

    Transfer thread

    As much stick as our recruitment is getting on here by many right now, I still think in a couple of years we will be praising the signings of the likes of Vuskovic, Gray, Bergvall, Simons, Tel and Odobert after they've had a good amount of time and games of PL football. Of course needs to be...

    Frank Give him time or get rid?

    Yes I get it, but regardless I would take Frank over a guy who is 78 and last managed 9 years ago :)....

    Frank Give him time or get rid?

    Good old Harry - he kindly offered himself to West Ham the other week. I loved the team he created for us, but he's 78 years old and it's a firm no from me. If this is the level of manager around for the time being I'd rather wait until the summer....

    Frank Give him time or get rid?

    There are the same videos and podcasts for every manager and making their style of play sound great for the club. Not just ours but everywhere - I remember reading this article about Ralf Hasenhüttl when he was joining Southampton and it made him sound like a genius. Low and behold he was not...

    Transfer thread

    No. There are two issues: 1) Why would the player want to come when he will know his quality and that if he bides his time he can/will go to a genuine CL club? And that this season we are unlikely to qualify for European football, or at the very least it's unknown - what is his rush to come...

    Mathys Tel

    Always like his enthusiasm to play and try his best - looks like he wants to be on the pitch and play for the club which is more than I can say for some. He has talent and deserves a run of games to show it. A bright spot in a disappointing night....
