Does that then free up Maatsen as CM cover as well? Isn’t that where he plays for Netherlands u21?

I think this is the crux of it. Played really well for the most part (positionally quite poor in first 30) but that was a relatively easy game to plod through. I’d still have reservations over him playing against someone like Swansea or Stoke.

3 strikers on the bench just about sums up this season.

I think you entered exactly the same word as me. Slight fluke but I’ll take getting one in 2 goes!

If there’s any truth in this then I wonder if we may be considering moving to a back 4 again?

To be fair, they hadn’t really moved. I called offside immediately. I have also had a discussion with someone who thought he was played onside by Rudiger. Didn’t realise that it was 2 defensive players to be onside.

And just to confirm, you are a fully grown adult?

Good.

Depends what we could offer vs the others in respect of playing time. I’d be surprised if he got in at Burnley ahead of Charlie Taylor, and whilst Tarkowski is possibly off at the end of the season there’s still Nathan Collins in reserve there. Forest, maybe a bit more tricky.

That good, you keep having to replace them!

It’s a really strange situation with so many there. No real pathway to first team football but many still happy to sign new contracts with them semi-regularly. Expect it forms part of their ‘loan farm’ model.

Really interested to see how Lewis Baker does. Felt like he was one we could have potentially brought in in the summer. Ah well, back to Poundland.

Osti has already gone to Genoa.

And Reid?

Why do we need to keep Reid as cover? He’s never going to get on the pitch, and was only on the bench because there were 9 spots.

Reminds me of one of my favourite football trivia questions: If Sunderland won the cup in 1979 and Villa won the cup in 1981, who won it in 1980?

Today’s 2pm televised game is West Ham v Leeds. That’s really dull. Surely Liverpool v Shrewsbury or Tottenham v Morecambe are more worthy?

They were chanting “Chelsea rent boy” at Conor Gallagher. Same thing that Leeds fans got lambasted for a week or two back. Bizarre chant.

Agree with all of this, I was just explaining to Harry how they could still be generating debt to themselves and earning from the club without having to actually dip further into their pocket. Also worth pointing out that at the time of the last accounts, £1.1m of that EFL loan has been held in...
