Re: David Moyes' Claret and Blue Army!

My gut feeling is Sullivan planned to let his contract run down this season, then we had our best ever Premier League start and we're 6th at Christmas. But Sullivan had made up his mind, so he pulled the rug out in January and here we are. I still believe we had a terrible Jan window because of coc...

Re: The Summer Transfer Thread 2024

Possibly - Palmeiras play a unique brand of football, very tight interplay with players effectively following the ball creating overloads. The ultimate Carlos Kickball. Sully would be moist. I still don't know how to post video's but I just have that Harry Enfield 1920's v modern day footballers im...

Which has no bearing on his statement that you are trying to parse to fit your view. We need to play how we are told is what he said. Not were told or sometimes are told. We were 3-1 up and stopped doing what we had been told. You've somehow got that to we are designed to play how we played once we...

Re: David Moyes' Claret and Blue Army!

I'm struggling to understand the thought process behind the Board deliberately sabotaging/withholding funds from the current manager, who has delivered Europe on 3 consecutive seasons and was on pace for a fourth.. to then give those funds to a new manager when we may not be in Europe. That's not a...

Re: Postecoglou: are the cracks beginning to show? [non WHU]

I like Ange as a bloke & like his straight talking manner, his Celtic team were a good watch but those players were much better than 95% of the opposition they faced. Always got found out in Europe though. Spurs first 10 games under him they looked sensational, but teams soon got wise to it, yes...

I don't.
They'd only give the trophies to Liverpool, Arsenal & Man Utd & that would be worse.

Re: ✍️ Welcome Lucas Paquetá - Our Brazilian Magnifico

I wouldn’t worry too much about him pulling up any trees if he is really off. He won’t want to risk getting injured. I disagree IB. Contrary to popular belief I believe he does enjoy playing for us, enjoys being the flashy fish in a sometimes dour pond. He enjoys the combative nature of our play, i...

I think he would, Diogenes always comes across as rather erudite.

That's by the by, I just want us to beat Fulham, I don't care how we do it, just want us to win.

Re: David Moyes' Claret and Blue Army!

Have we ever actually managed to keep a clean sheet in the last few years by parking the bus at the height of our goal line? Arsenal 0-2 West Ham. Just before New Year springs to mind. 25% possession defensive masterclass. If Kudus had taken that gilt edged opportunity after Mic's cutback on 15 min...

Re: David Moyes' Claret and Blue Army!

I’d hold off on booking your flights mate. Ultimately sitting there for 90 minutes will lead to us conceding, it has done all season, why would it be any different now? That’s what 60 goals+ conceded this season now, it isn’t working, yet the manager persists. Because he’s right? Or because he does...

We’ve been giving away 70% of the ball all season long to some well **** teams. Don’t get me wrong Sullivan is the proximate cause, but fk me some of you love a bit of Moyesball… Moyesball has got us European football 3 years running & we've reached the minimum of 3 European Qtr finals, reached...

Re: David Moyes' Claret and Blue Army!

You’re quite right DD those players were warriors tonight, they have 150% and I can’t fault them for their efforts at all. The pathetic game plan, the spinelessness in our tactics “going forward” if you can call it that were a joke. How anyone can honestly watch that and want more of it is now just...
