I do think Lampards system is set up to create goals for the 9 and 10 and not much else TBH. Maybe the odd winger sneaking in back post but mostly he wants them out wide.

Im writing him off because he’s crap at football and doesn’t look bothered. His xG could be 99 for all I care I can’t do another season watching him, I’ll go spare.

We don’t even own three wide players.

Yeah he is. He declined last season. Not the point though. We’re no better than last year overall and may still be weakened further. I’d hoped for more with the season starting soon. Never like doing business late August. Still hope we can do some business to improve the first team.

We’ve got decline too. Simms is worse than he was this time last year for a start. Think we’ll be very lucky to go up with this squad tbh.

Five bikes… I see than many outside any McDonald’s or KFC in the city at any one time.

Any independent shop will be around 20% cheaper than GW. Was talking to the guy who runs my local shop and he was explaining that GE won’t discount but don’t stop others. Most will order what you want in, that’s what I do. Order when I’m in one weekend and pick up the next. Lots of sprue only...

We’re about where we were last season at the moment. Seems the rumours about Doug’s money drying up were true. Doubt we’ll see anything without MvE or Wright leaving. And wouldn’t be surprised if either happens too late to do anything.

Missed it all. How did we play?

Two sides that need to be interested though. Also are options a guarantee or just an option? I’d have thought it’s less specific and binding than an obligation to buy.

The gap from 4th to 5th is probably the biggest in the division and definitely larger than 5th to 12th IMO. If you were clustering us we aren’t with the top four, we’re with those below us like Norwich Middlesbrough etc.

Don’t agree with everything in this but probably the best piece of writing on Labour left vs Labour right I’ve read. https://mainlymacro.blogspot.com/2025/07/delusions-on-left-and-labour-right.html?m=1

People are being murdered but not reporting it SBT!

Hey next you’ll be telling me the news that millionaires are leaving done by a tax planning company isn’t legit!

“No you see there’s a massive conspiracy that means you can’t trust data and have to trust my vibes” What a massive surprise that that’s your answer.

That’s one very optimistic way of phrasing it. We’ve finished fifth twice. The point is the jump to 4th and likely promotion is a big one and will require better than we’ve got.

We’re upper mid table in the crowd 5-12.

“these days” You don’t look anything like as old as you claim to be to remember the UK when it w as safer.

By this logic Joel Latibeaudiere is worth £15m

We’re in a group where two out of about 8-10 finish in the playoffs.
