  1. I was sat in the north stand and people weren't booing. They were shouting 'Beast'. Boo-east? Definitely sounded like boos, sorry. http://www.mirror.co.uk/sport/football/news/manchester-city-striker-alvaro-negredo-3197152 Learn something new every day! I made the same mistake at a Springsteen concert.

    De Roon

    I've been really unimpressed with him to be honest. To me his reading of the game is quite poor and at times it means he plays like a schoolboy. Whether it's the pace of the game here or just his ability I'm unsure but he needs to stop just chasing the ball around like a dog. I've not wrote him off yet as he could step up and improve but I honestly think there were better options available in the summer. More worrying to me is it casts a shadow on our scouting and recruitment who seen intent on signing gambles.
  3. "free swing" and "mini league" are two phrases I would quite happily never hear again in the context of football. There are no free swings we all play 38 games and the mini league idea is the biggest pile of bs I coming out in a long time.
  4. Same, think we will see the return of both Downing and Stuani this weekend. I think it'll be a while before AK believes that Adama is a competent backwards passing full back.
  5. That's wishful thinking. In all seriousness though I think we need Clayton in to match up against Arter. I'm still unconvinced on De Room.
  6. Really see this one as a must win game. We've had a quarter of the season and quite a soft start in terms of fixtures and still find ourselves outside the bottom three on goal difference. Last week was better and we need to carry some of that momentum into this week. I honestly think it will be the same old same old from us so I expect Bournemouth to get all three points.
  7. It's a shame the Sheff We'd fans didn't turn up for the play off final. ?
  8. Bet Hull weren't far off our spend. Actually thought West Brom might have been in the bottom 3.
  9. Don't know fully but we'd spent £17m-£20m before the signings of Chambers and Traore. We've then shipped out Reach and Adomah and a few loans. I've not seen what figures have been banded about. I'd imagine we were just about the smallest spenders in the league.
  10. Still think we will be 17th or 18th. Just don't see where the goals will come from.
  11. Can't believe the fees being banded about recently. I thought we'd have been lucky to get 2 mil for reach. That Weir cost Hull £5m, madness
  12. Kike Sola. Think he's off to Getafe.
  13. Which striker do you think we'd replace Rhodes with (assuming he leaves)?
  14. Problem with stats like used by FM is that they are subjective and based on one person's interpretation. They also exclusively focus on what a player does rather that what he should do or doesn't do. If a player fails to see a forward pass but passes it three yards backwards to his full back that's a positive attribute. It's the same with creating a chance we've seen on here that people disagree with what constitutes a chance. So one person could be counting events whilst someone else isn't counting the same type of event
  15. Nothing happening with the Norwich player (with us anyway) Not heard any further on winger or AM. Think Clough or Zidane will be late on if they happen as imagine its not a priority.
  16. @premierleague reports from Leicester suggest that they have been interested for some while now. The same team who have Christian Fuchs and Ben Chilwell. I find that rumour very hard to believe. Liverpool would have made more sense but they've said no more ins.
  17. I made a similar comment yesterday but in actuality KM has been right before; he was bang on with the Victor Moses stuff previously. Was the Victor Moses tripe ever verified by anyone? VB did. Who's he? The bloke who said McCormack was signing? VB mentioned McContract when he was at Leeds. I believe it was someone else in Dec/ Jan just gone.
  18. Weren't our scouts reported to be in Portugal over the weekend? We had scouts at the vitoria de guimaraes match. Yeah won't give name but unsurprisingly it's an AM/ winger OB is outside Broadcast and Pretty sure it's under 21's that don't get included. If they are 21 but born before 1st Jan this year then they still need to be included in the 25. I think De saart has to be included by virtue of a fee days.
  19. If dire reading is a reason for deleting posts we are all in trouble : )
  20. Your post earlier TB, are you confident that it'll happen? Did that come from a contact or was it a guess of what tomorrow will bring? I've heard that from two different people so fairly confident. Chambers done and looks like Adama Traore is already at Rockcliffe. Should be an exciting day. My advice keep close to SSN.
  21. Happy Jim White Day Hope you've been good and get exactly what you want.
  22. Attendance have been really poor tonight across the board. Who would have though fans don't want to watch their team play another teams reserves.
  23. That's commitment to the cause who did you think we were signing from the Canadian Soccer League
