In the recruitment team at Liverpool they talk about “unicorn” footballers - those who are worth paying above your spending brackets as they drastically improve your team - e.g. Alisson & van Dijk We clearly see Hughes in a similar mould & probably agree with Hull that he’ll likely be worth...

According to this Darren Moore is the Sheff W manager 😂

Boro, Norwich, WBA, and Millwall all losing a key player to a parachute team - good for play-off hopes but bad for already slim autos hopes

Apparently they played well defensively against Birmingham (compared to their previous 2 games) but made the game a turgid affair and couldn't get back into it once behind We should win but can see a 1-0 loss from a set-piece goal

Miss the days when we had Lawrence - never felt the opposition were going to score a corner Last night I turned to my mate and said "they'll score here" just before the second. Was predictable after we'd had sustained pressure The good news is that it is an area that you can sort out fairly...

I don't know how but they definitely need to sort it out. Know a few London-based fans who wanted to go but couldn't get one Another problem is that because people were going at people for selling tickets, some probably didn't even bother to shift theirs

Yep Rudoni consistently gave him a short pass option so he could move the ball on, which is what he needs. Beforehand he had nobody to pass to and kept losing it

- KKH was bad but also was given a tough job. BTA comes inside and Andrews didn't get over to support him going forward so he was isolated. Got better once Rudoni was supporting him. Also thought their LW was good (tho final ball was rubbish) but he did get done more than you'd want - 2 goals...

Sorry just edited it to clarify - meant by next summer it will be 3 years since Gyok/Hamer went

If we're going to attract top talent to come to us - we need examples of developing and moving players to a top division If we don't do it this summer by next summer it'll be 3 years of nobody moving on. Prospective agents/players will think they could get stuck in the Championship I love MvE...

Warming to BTA at RW. He played there quite a bit for Salford so knows the role well He’s so good when a game is open/chaotic - not the type of player when we’re up against a deep block though

Highest quantity but lowest in quality, hence Lampard looking at Chilwell

Why? We got 3 performances out of him and gave KKH longer to learn the ropes in training

Seems a crazy link and would require basically anyone who could offer a better financial package to not be interested (which they may not be tbf considering how the last 2 years have gone for him)

First half we couldn't get going down our right-side, BTA had one opening where he needed to square it but went the wrong way. Felt like we were really missing Saka Credit where it is due though he got better as the game progressed, scored and kept the ball alive for the 5th. Would still want a...

JDS going forward was great & is developing a good partnership with EMC He actually seemed alright defensively too (particularly as they targeted him a bit). It was his poor clearance that led to their penalty though

I’d be surprised if this wasn’t the team

Yeah find it hard to believe we would have leaked anything. Doug will be unhappy that other clubs now know we’ve got that kind of money to throw around The comments from the Hull manager are just strange

When people talk about standing still I think it is more about how you get worked out tactically and the environment gets stale Top level examples but Pep & Fergie have both said even when you’ve reached the top you need to refresh the squad We haven’t even reached the top yet so ideally the...
