Yeah this is kind of it but I actually meant against every other manager in the 92 since he came in. Possibly Arteta or Slott maybe even Nathan Jones could be up there but FL must be up there as the best performing manager in the country since he arrived

I’m pleased Lampard is getting this press interest and praise. He’s taken so much of the reverse in his managerial career so far to the point he was a meme and regularly a joke’s butt. Fair play to Doug for picking him out of that field, he wouldn’t have been many of our picks. Certainly wasn’t...

Feels harsh that. He’s clearly not a well man and this is an outlet that clearly brings him joy. If you find him annoying (as I do) just scroll past and don’t engage (as I did) and the algorithm will just stop showing you him. I wonder how many of the petition signers cry all the cliches of...

To be fair, Josh started taking more of an interest just before we got really good but he is a ST holder now and absolutely loves it.

Well it also finished with a stroke tbf

I was going to start a similar thread but it’s about my wife’s sister

So pleased for him and understandable to look tired, would be interested to know the last time he played 90 minutes

I’d disagree almost as far as saying that his calmness and arrogance in possession rubs off on the others around him. You can see Grimes in particular loves coming over to JDS because he knows they can ping it around one touch. He’ll get done for pace and height occasionally over the season but...

The thing people underestimate most about EMC is his strength. He protects it so well. Him on the left and Saka on the right are definitely our most effective wingers IMO.

Probably to do with the 10 unbeaten, top of the league thing

He’s a strange one for me. He’s sort of always quietly effective without ever looking special and then pops up with a big moment out of nowhere. Has to be worth a lot in todays market now though.

Wouldn’t be that surprised if MR was tempted by Norwich. Depends whether he thinks he’s got Stoke over performing and it’s worth cashing in before they implode. Having said that he turned down a payrise from Sunderland to stay with us so maybe he’s learned from the Huddersfield situation.

Haha I hadn’t told my mates I’d done it either, just walked out the toilets like that 😆 mad to think that was a month further into the season than we are currently though and still didn’t even make play offs

Yep! Went top on 21st November… I remember because it was my birthday and I said if we went top I’d go to the colly in full kit (hidden under clothes then got changed in the toilet once in).

Same team, keep the truck rolling. No player will want to be rested or miss out at the moment and winning cures fatigue. Can’t wait for Tuesday already

The simplest retort yesterday would’ve been “where were you when you were good”. They had attendances of 16k the year they finished 6th in the premier league 🤯

Bump. Looking forward to Tuesday!

I sang Farage is a wanker at the same time and got death stares from them. I wouldn’t bring politics into football but if they do then the anti-opinion should also be fair under their beloved free speech. Anyway this is my first post I’ve seen tonight and I’ve just got home after an evening...

Am I missing something with Burge 😂 2 picks for him. Even now if we’re playing footy and a mate kicks it straight out of play someone will shout LEE BUUUURGE

Our next league game (first game at the Ricoh) was on 20/08/05 meaning we’ll beat Blackburn 2-0 before spanking Portsmouth 0-8 away.
