Yes. 👍🏻

Tough one. Yes, and no. Realistically, as it’s been exhaustively covered here, he needs a season in L1 or L2 to sharpen up and get some experience. Although, as he’s shown this season in glimpses, he’s already improved his overall game. Personally, I’d send him out on loan, get a back-up...

Walsh incoming.

If we’re using the two FA Cup ties against PL opposition as a yardstick, our whole team are worthy of a PL move. 🤷‍♂️ That was a Herculean effort, on both occasions, so much so that our play off push vanished because of it. Do you think he could maintain that level week in week out in the PL?

Seagulls shitting on my car. Just, needless splatters all over the bonnet, and we live a good 20 miles from the coast. Dirty bastards.

Sheaf to Man Utd?! I’ve heard it all now…sorry, he’s a smashing lad and a really good footballer, but I would be astonished if he didn’t struggle immensely with the PL. Especially at a club like Man Utd, with the climate, the expectation, the dross they have spent a fortune on. If it’s true...

How so? Most of Vik’s went on Wright, Simms, Tatsu, Thomas, Lati, Collins… Where did the money for EMC, Torp and now Stamenic come from?

I nominate @Saddlebrains 🤣

Done deal or not, I’m just thinking logically here: where would we be getting £5.5 mil from without at least expecting an incoming fee for a player we have? Think we have to be realistic, here. It could indicate that Sheaf is indeed on his way, and that’s it’s been done under the radar. I can...

Jaric, Baumann, Dodo, Giersen and Ordaz, later on. Also, I used to try and grab as many of the secret players in free agents as possible, from Pro Evo 6 onwards. Yamada, Chapi, Kaiser, Bos, Carter, Wilton etc. I think Master League is what made Pro Evo what it was, to be honest. Really was...

No way he’s worth £10 mil. Not a chance; can’t see anyone paying that, either.

Same here, mate.

This has been such a wholesome tangent, so far. Well worth going off-topic. There really should be a nostalgic Pro Evo thread.

He was an absolute swine to defend against: Valencia, Roma, Lyon.

Indeed, though I feel his shooting ability was unnecessarily low on Pro Evo. His stamina was also low, hence he’d last about an hour, and I’d get frustrated with that. lol

Nedved was the one I’d always pull out all the stops to sign on Pro Evo, what a beast he was. Stamina, passing, agility, shooting from distance - amazing. Wow that brings back some memories from the 00’s. 👏

I seem to recall his actual ‘jump’ stat to be relatively low? On Pro Evo he didn’t have to jump very far anyway, haha. In real life though, pretty pants unless it was ideal height for a headed flick on.

BREAKING NEWS: Coventry City sign Alain Braun from obscure French team La Orange, for a few sheep and a goat. In other news Callum O’Hare still hasn’t packed his bags and fucked off, because nobody wants him anymore. ANOTHER CET EXCLUSIVE. 📰 👏🤣

Yes, balance and mobility are key, as well. That’s why we see the gangly, overly tall players having worse balance, questionable mobility and therefore less jumping ability, than a short arse like Speedie or Flynn. Zola as well, who had a great leap on him.

In my time, I’ve never seen such a gulf between the left/right political paradigm. Total division. No ground in-between to work from, the sides have become irreconcilable to the point where nothing can be discussed without resorting to the absurd mud-flinging of ‘right wing extremist!’ or ‘you...
