    The England Thread

    Am I missing what this change is meant to represent? Doesn't really 'signal' anything to me beyond the designer thought that a red cross looked a bit boring.

    Do people really think RB are paying players 170k a week?

    Pedro Neto

    Agree, you only need to look at the impact Jota had a Liverpool playing with better players. He's better than Kulusevski or Werner so that's enough to make him an upgrade to the first 11 and mean he'd definitely be a good addition to the 15 key players you look to find your starting 11 from

    Perisic was the plan B, and it was a good plan B. I think he's the biggest loss playing against packed defences.

    And lost as they invited pressure. I actually agree with your overall point though, just don't think that's the best example

    New Stadium Details And Discussions

    New builds become old builds such is the arrow of time. For newer fans this will be the only home they've known. Hopefully soon with memories of triumphant league campaigns

    Mauricio Pochettino

    For instance McClaren was assistant at Derby from 95 to 99. Then directly hired as assistant at united. This is all pretty well documented rather than just some notions that a few of us have made up.

    Mauricio Pochettino

    They were hired at some point at some level and promoted because they had a perspective or tactical understanding that Ferguson wanted to utilise. The point is, he kept freshening up first team coaching staff and didn't take training himself for at least the latter half of his time there.

    The Naming Rights Thread

    Getting dull now. Yes there is a value to doing it. No one has come close to that value yet presumably. Or even, you know, maybe there are things that we don't know about in the pipeline that would mean it's better to wait and get a much much better deal. Ultimately we're football fans, not...

    The Naming Rights Thread

    Why say you won't do it. Whether it's worthwhile does have a price. I'm pretty sure we've named that price to us. If someone wants it, it is for sale. Until that price is met, we keep the name as it is. Rather than a fudge, this seems logical to me. How do you monetise our name? The same way...

    Let's All Laugh At... Let's all laugh at Chelsea thread

    Yeah I kind of agree, and see your rationale. But should Arsenal find the money it would be peak Arsenal to buy another player like Palmer when what they need is a striker

    Antonio Nusa

    To be fare to him, if I was Nusa, going to Brentford makes quite a lot of sense. As long as we keep trying to buy a player like this each window, the squad will remain fresh

    Antonio Nusa

    I've played against players like Doku though, and they take so long to get anywhere they beat you 1v1 2 twice in the same dribble, you tackle them on the 3rd go and you walk away with the ball and they walk away with a 66.6% take on statistic

    Antonio Nusa

    Article says that take on success is an area to work in. Success at 50% of take ons is really high, isn't it? Much higher than that and you've got someone who could dribble past all opponents most of the time
