2-1...but poor from Pope that. Committed way too early
Ah right, yeah. I thought he was signed to replace Chilwell and he is. Just is comfortable either side. Justin is a RB though? Why not play Chestnuts LB and Justin RB?Timmy Chestnuts is a RB, but can also play at LB.
When Ricardo is fit again, I think he'll get moved to left-back, and Justin will go to the bench.
He seems better than Chilwell so far
I think VVD was in the context of the Dutch national team, for and before the Brasil world cup.I'm sure I remember LVG turning-down VVD as well. And of course Sir Alex with Henderson was in his book.
Castagne is a great buy.
Certainly did and they didn't apologise until ages after. I am really offended.Did anyone hear the loud "YOU FECKING PUSSY!" From (I think) Dyche?
Was Dunne on our books at some point? Name seems to ring a bell.
We can't get rid because DDG is on a 5 keeper salary.Have you been watching Kepa ? There is a reason why Chelsea wants to get rid of him even though they paid 70+ M for him.
There's an obligation towards the League and the standard of play. They're not tiny clubs anymore when they reach that level. We've been brainwashed. They make more money than 95% of all European clubs and we're fed this idea that they have a tiny budget, they're some sort of blue-collar, everyman's club and that the style of play which is basically kick and hope, not even kick and rush is somewhat good at this level.I would disagree that that's a bad thing. There are plenty of ways to play football, there's no such thing as the "right" way... Even if it is more entertaining.
Not saying I'd want United to play that way... But what's more important to Burnley? Staying in the league on a tiny budget or playing nice football?
OK that makes sense, I had a memory of that but couldn’t remember the details as clearly as I usually do with United-related cock-upsI think VVD was in the context of the Dutch national team, for and before the Brasil world cup.
Ours seem to have a good eye too. I mean to pick out Jason Sancho for our right wing position and him alone was top class scout work. Harry Maguire and Aaron Wan-Bissaka for £130m last season was also great value. No way we would have found two players as accomplished and talented as them for that limited budget we had.Early days but he does look pretty nifty... For the less then £20m too.
If only we had scouts aye.
Kinda. Obviously players are good/great at this level but suddenly people chat someone up, someone else chats them up and the hype train is real. Obviously a talented player but have a feeling teams will be caught out buying players they think will be massive difference makers when in fact they're just good players.A luxury player maybe? Someone who has flashes of brilliance but can be a passenger.
John Egan sent off for Sheffield United v. Villa. Second yellow.
That's makes things a bit awkward, but ten men can still cause problems.
