wilsoncgp 9,230 Posted August 7, 2021 Share Posted August 7, 2021 (edited) Good lord, getting Jokanovic to do those walk-ups on camera must have been terrifying. Link to post Share on other sites
Old Codger 3,039 Posted August 7, 2021 Share Posted August 7, 2021 He might find it more difficult than he was anticipating, I would be surprised if he gets into the top two and unless his defensive strategies have improved vastly, I think they might not even make the play-offs. They can't rely on Billy Sharp to score consistently any more and if I had to choose which one of the three relegated clubs was likeliest to not bounce back straight away, It would be Sheff Utd Link to post Share on other sites
wilsoncgp 9,230 Posted August 7, 2021 Share Posted August 7, 2021 He went full Steve McClaren tonight putting all 4 of their very talented strikers on the pitch by the end. Think those guys alone make me think once they get going they'll be banging in the goals. Though they surely can't survive a season with Ben Osborn as a left back. Wonder where Enda Stevens was tonight. It'll be interesting to see how Fulham do tomorrow night though. Their squad on paper looks the best all round. West Brom looked very impressive in their opener too. Link to post Share on other sites

West Brom looked very impressive in their opener too. They have the talent, but his main thing is going to be rebuilding their confidence. The number of times they let people carry the ball right down the pitch last year was their downfall and it will be interesting to see how he tries to change that, I appreciate that the quality of players they will be facing is a lot lower but I thought that they would begin to start scoring last season and it didn't happen. Would rather see them do well than Fulham or WBA but they might surprise me and turn things around. He needs to make them be up for a scrap and if he can do that then he is halfway there 1 Link to post Share on other sites

AnglianRed 6,229 Posted August 8, 2021 Share Posted August 8, 2021 (edited) Anyone see that Ipswich have signed Ed Sheeran? 😁 https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-england-suffolk-58121177 In other news it looks like Lionel Messi has decided to forgo a salary cut at Barca and is in talks to join the frugal, low-spending Paris St-Germain... https://www.bbc.co.uk/sport/football/58128763 Elsewhere on the continent the Mourinho circus continues, with the Special One managing to get sent off as his team lost a friendly match. https://www.bbc.co.uk/sport/football/58135543 Edited August 8, 2021 by AnglianRed Link to post Share on other sites

Apparently over a handballed goal? Insane. Preseason friendly, who gives that much of a crap during a game like that? He's probably only riled his players up even more by getting himself involved too. 1 Link to post Share on other sites

Do the club end up doing a switcheroo to accommodate him or does he wear the number 25 or 37 something like that? Can you do us all a shirt number XI and then we can try and decide 🙃 Link to post Share on other sites
Changing Times 12,218 Posted August 8, 2021 Share Posted August 8, 2021 Just now, newyddion said: Do you not think that it could be a big deal? I would say it's Afghanistan first, and then Messi's shirt number second probably, in terms of global importance. It does pip Covid, the Arab/Israeli conflict, Greek wildfires etc though 😉 I don't even care what shirt numbers our players wear to be honest so it's not really something I'd consider to be important. It seems more important to me that he's jacking it in with Barca now that they can't pay him what he wants. If he was that bothered about his time there then he'd be playing for them again this season. Must have earned over a billion quid now in his career. Sad that it's still about the money really. 3 Link to post Share on other sites
