I’m pretty sure his motivation is to draw false equivalence between the U.K. and the U.S. There’s a fair amount of civil war talk over there. He’s trying to say if you elect a left or left of centre government, look what happens.

Haha. First half defo was like watching England.

Bobby Clarke’s a good enough rumour but Bajcetic would be insane in the championship imo.

Would be happy with BNC. Looked very raw first few times I saw him. But by the time of play off semis, he looked totally at home.

Average squad and Bannan is old and doesn’t run. But they’re greater than the sum of their parts. Down to the manager mainly. They are in trouble if he gets poached.

Definitely agree with that. Basically a mug’s game doing these predictions. Another unknown, particularly at the bottom is the impact of new managers. Let’s face it, quite a few managers are going to get whacked part way through the season. Others will get poached and the successor could...

Yeah that’s pretty embarrassing. Lack of awareness about the current state of Hull and WBA. Also at the bottom end where Blackburn, just one example, have got more to worry about than Portsmouth. Typical of some big newspapers and the state of their coverage and knowledge of the EFL these days...

Kitching can cover LB. Not ideal but he’d be more solid than JDS

Ideally an RCB who could also play RB. But if pushed, I’d choose CB. If Thomas gets injured, we only have Lati and I’m not convinced at all by him playing CB in a back four. I think he’d get targeted. At RB it seems like we have more options, even if none perfect.

Bobby Clark is a brilliant prospect. I’d love him to play for us. No chance he’ll come permanently and tbf, despite how good he is, it’s pointless spunking serious money on a loan fee for him.

Fair enough. Let’s see what happens.

Agree that Burnley will prob be top 3 or 4. If Parker was better than 5-6/10, they’d walk the league.

He’s had some good squads but could have done much better with them, even if he did get them promoted. As an example, he took Bournemouth up in ‘22 but lost the plot and acted as though they were lambs to the slaughter. Gary O’Neil takes over and finishes lower/mid table PL.

Yeah but that’s like primary school negotiations

Also very odd if they’ve come out like this to say he’s not what they’re looking for. I mean, how long have they supposedly been tracking him but only now realise he’s not a good fit ? 👀

I read that too and was surprised. He certainly looked pretty quick when he broke through and scored against us last season even if he wasn’t exactly in a foot race with anyone.

He’s generally got them playing on the front foot. Sure there’s exceptions and times where he screwed up. When we played them at home last season, they created quite a lot tbf. 3-0 flattered us a bit.
