Cant see us replacing MvE next summer unless he’s sold.

It’s really hard to say before the season has been played really. I think maybe a GK but let’s see how Collins plays out, maybe an AM but let’s see how O’Hare comes back, maybe a LWB. Of course we could sell someone to fund purchases as well and need to replace.
I meant in addition to mve. A bidwell type on his side of the pitch. We have lots of cover bit 2 specialists would be better if the opportunity is,there

There are quite a few mysteries in life.

But the biggest mystery of all is why someone can't give the Fool asking the questions a few more questions (that are at least half way intelligent).

I admire Kitching's patience in basically answering the same inane question about a 100 times: 'happy to get the deal over the line?' 'looking forward to meeting the lads in training?' 'big advantage to know a couple of the lads?' 'looking forward to paying at the CBS in front of the Coventry faithful?'.

By the third or fourth totally inane question, in Kitching's shoes I would have walked out, smashed up the studio in complete frustration and demanded to be released of all in house media duties forever.

Fadz will every now and then have a game where he completely shits the bed, but every summer I think its time to replace him and he just keeps going and somehow seems to get better. I think it will be Kitching and Thomas either side of Fadz this season for the most part.

Apart from 1 fantastic block Fadz didn't cover himself in glory either
It was a collective shitshow at the back sometimes, out of character as far as the rest of the season has gone, hopefully just a glitch

I think they were up against quick, tricky, fluid front line to be fair. Would be tricky even for a familiar back line who know their roles. I thought Watford were very good at playing into grey areas and dragging us around a bit.

Yeah I was impressed with Watford in parts but their defence weren't up to much either

It grates on me every time.
He's no better and no worse than any other tv or radio commentator/pundit/continuity presenter, they all ask the same moronic questions over and over again.
I'd love it if a player or manager had the balls and came right out with 'why don't you try asking me a sensible question for once'

Dalglish and Strachan were both prone to giving sarcastic answers to inane questions, which were more often a statement of fact than an actual question.

Yeah for me they were literally a team of two. The team up top, quick, dangerous and looked like scoring every time….

at the back however they wouldn’t look out of place in Sunday league
Really? They’re number 4, before the calamitous OG stopped 2 guilt edge chances of ours. With Wright’s chance, the GK didn’t save it, it was a block from their number 4.

I found our final ball wasn’t great at times. We won the ball a fair few times in Front of their box through poor defending.

I’m not saying they didn’t have individual moments - just those moments came from them losing the ball in dangerous areas

They say they have been losing players for years in same with way as Kitching and are used to it.

yes they are disappointed but it was good money that they got! He is not so much a great player but a team player and unites people / groups we will quickly see this

fingers crossed. He rates him as a a manager spokesman and team leader

This is a good interview if you go into reader mode. He was in the Leeds academy with Latibeaudiere until U15s

It says his brother is a boxer who weighs 672 kilograms, so best not upset him. That's 105 stone.
