Gotcha & agreed 👍🏻

Exactly, and most of them missing all at the same time too.

He can only be penalised offside from when the ball is played by a teammate. When the cross comes in from Telfer(?) he is miles onside & this is the last touch by a City player. There is no cause to rule the goal out either then or by today's laws.

Even by today's rules he isn't in an offside position, the goal would stand.

He was never in an offside position.

I'm interested to hear his take on that video & his release but I'm not sitting through 50mins. Any summary or time I can jump to?

Been linked with him in the past but think they're about to get Jayden Stockley, doubt they'd want both?

No surprise sacking Harris, just thought they'd want a more progressive manager. McCarthy did ok with Ipswich but was a disaster more recently at APOEL. Assume it's just until the end of the season & they'll use dinosaur tactics (which might suit their squad tbf) to ensure they stay up then...

Surprised by this, heck of a gamble.

Nor would many other teams. Problem is he's probably content sat on his £30k p/w. What would we pay him with? We can't have another loanee in the squad either. Plus would take a while to get fit as not played since October & not even training with the squad anymore.

Goalscoring is definitely his main weakness at the moment but plenty of time to improve that. I think you might be surprised if Lampard does get the sack that Mount will still be a key player. The high press is king for the top sides & there's none better at it than Mount. Don't forget Chelsea...

Quite a few & I have a Chelsea season ticket holding mate who loves him too. I know he's a player that divides opinion even among their own fanbase though. A lot of what he does are the unseen qualities (much like Ben Sheaf for us). His work off the ball is absolutely elite & he's a lot more...

Not at all & I'm not trying to shame anyone, I asked what you considered to be "carrying on like we are"? Some criticism is definitely deserved after the last performance (and 2 or 3 others) but generally it's nowhere near as bad as some like to make out. Unless people had crazy expectations...

How many of our players would get near Swansea's team?

Dion's goal, even now with the new ruling of being treated as on the line, would still count as he was never in an offside position when a teammate played the ball.

Sure: Also, given we usually play 1 up front he is the strike force 🤡

On other threads you've said he's "poor" & (your favourite saying) "not at the level" 🤣 I suppose you're covering all bases as usual.

Re: Kastaneer, Yes, of course he has, nobody will deny that. Personally I don't rate Biamou either & I think his contract probably had an auto extension in it but Robins knew that both of those 2 weren't up to it & has been trying for some time to shift them. I thought Baka might be worth...

Good to see you've written Gyökeres off already, no surprise there 🙄 Walker should hopefully be back soon too which improves us significantly. You seem to think everyone else is banging in loads of goals & have impenetrable defences. In reality there's other teams in the league that are...

They weren't signed with the Championship in mind though & we can't afford to overhaul the entire squad in one summer. Bakayoko is the only one given a new deal & we obviously felt that persuading somebody better to come in as a 3rd/4th choice on similar money to what we're paying Bakayoko...
