    He's at a similar level (probably slightly below the likes of Foden) and at a less fashionable club that isn't quite up there in terms of dominating games. Would I drop the current attacking players for him? No. But I'd put him in the back-ups with the likes of Saka, Mount, Smith-Rowe and...

    I think it's more political acumen than not giving a shit. He seems scared to say anything for fear of alienating anyone. Whether that's due to advisors or his own nature I'm not sure - probably a bit of both.

    Oh, and Rishi Sunak: https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-politics-60941902 I can understand your fury about you being questioned about some investments your wife owns (voluntarily) that go against your own governments position could be comparable to someone making fun of a medical condition that...

    I did consider saying that their other option is to massively hike up Council Tax, but then that's going to be spun negatively for local government as well. It's not exactly a generous thing to offer is it: "Hey, we're cutting the amount of money we give you and making you pay for more stuff...

    Not entirely, but it's a significant part of it. Are you saying that there's no correlation in the funding available from Central Goverment along with services being transferred from Central Government control to Local Government and a council's ability to function? Given more stuff to pay for...

    I'd be looking to bring someone else in first and this would be the fallback option if nothing can to fruition. No idea who that 'someone else' might be though.

    Do you want to discuss boring politics?

    Agreed. The council have failures to address, and IMO far too many of the councillors are in it for self-promotion and career prospects. But do I see that changing if we vote this lot out and bring in people from other parties, be they Tory, Lib Dem, Green or even this Coventry Citizen's Party...

    I agree. I think Bellingham can do more further forward but with that level of attacking flair available for those positions I don't want to have to take someone out to put Bellingham in. So I'd rather take out Phillips.

    Blackburn not on ifollow

    I think the idea that you buy credits to use up as and when you want and so you don't lose out when a game isn't available is an option worth considering. You could charge the same price per game as now but negate the perceived poor service availability and increase income if fewer games are...

    For me, Mount is more that reliable midfielder who you can rely on to have a steady game, but I'd prefer him to be a squad player rather than first choice. Even then I'd probably pick Ward-Prowse ahead of him. If you want someone who can hold we've got Rice and Bellingham. Attacking wise...

    International break including WC playoffs

    It used to be a time when England created fantastic defensive players but lacked creativity. Now we've got loads of creative, technical midfielders but poor defenders. Even the likes of Stones has a lapse of concentration in him and isn't really what we'd traditionally call a defender but can...
