    James Maddison

    A pipe dream but one I fully support! We will probably see him at Real or Bayern in a few years.

    Brennan Johnson

    I was watching that; Sonny pushed him towards the fans and Brennan wasn't having it. I do feel bad for him and you're right, some of the fans treated Royale really badly. I know I'm adding some qualifiers, but a real fan with any modicum of decency might be disappointed at worst with him, but...

    Brennan Johnson

    The finish was good. I hope he understands that no real fan is going to say anything bad about him as a person. Garbage spouted on the internet is barely worth the effort of even reading and doesn't reflect the actual opinions of fans as a whole. Since when did regular people's opinions matter...

    Brennan Johnson

    End product isn't there. Not sure if it's his decision-making or maybe the instructions he's getting are poor, but either way, whatever he's doing as a player just isn't working. I really think Odobert needs to be starting ahead of him. Also, his defensive work needs to be better. I feel like...

    Dominic Solanke

    I like the way he presses. What I don't like is how most of the other players don't press properly; it's always so slow and lethargic and hardly ever in unison. The whole point is to close down as many passing lanes as possible, or be ready to intercept them. I expect much more from players like...

    James Maddison

    I was kind of worried that our performances from pre-season would carry on into the season, and it turns out that they were indeed quite indicative. The thing about Ange is that I like him a lot, but I really ponder his selection and substitutions sometimes. He is nowhere near as ruthless as he...

    Radu Drăgușin

    I really think Gray is best suited to DM. I know he needs time to get used to the PL so I'm ok with taking things slowly, but I do really think he could be great in that role.' edit: I'm ok with experimenting with Romero in DM too, I think he'd actually do fine with the extra freedom.

    Giovani Lo Celso

    The club's finances do affect us though. Obviously, I am not advocating for all fans needing to be completely fluent in all the machinations behind the scenes, but at the most basic level, what we get in is ultimately what we can lay out. In other words, I do care about our transfer budget as...

    Brennan Johnson

    I feel like I wonder this quite often, but do our club employ some kind of sports psychologist, or have someone in the role of advising players on their mentality (besides Ange, obviously)? It seems to help most athletes who have utilized the services of a mental health professional (to use a...

    Son Heung-Min

    Each stat has to be looked at within the context that it's brought up. So maybe after half a season, if Son still has a goal-per-game, that would mean something. But yeah right now, it's pretty meaningless, especially considering the two teams we've played.

    Manor Solomon

    He should get some game time I'd imagine. Hopefully he can get through a tough season without getting injured.

    Wilson Odobert

    I'm glad Ange trusted him with a start. He seemed like a massive nuisance to Everton in that first half, so I'm pretty sure Ange felt vindicated in selecting him. I'm actually hoping he starts against Saudi Sportswashing Machine, too.

    Guglielmo Vicario

    I think someone else said the same in the Bergvall thread. Largely agree with that sentiment as new, young players should be eased into the team. I imagine Vicario probably told Bergvall it was something in the heat of the moment. Either way, I do think it's best for Vicario to try and be calm...

    Vicario let him have it lol. That is a true baptism.

    Putin & Russia

    There's liveuamap as well which is decent, but I find it's sometimes too cluttered and was also very slow-loading (seems rectified now). The guy running the google map I linked is some kind of academic or research fellow-type, not just an armchair redditor.

    Oliver Skipp

    Of course I'm wishing him all the best. I wanted him to be good for us but I get that injuries etc. might have derailed that. Deserves to play at the highest level even if it's not at the very peak.

    Wilson Odobert

    I think our new approach has way more value. Actually getting in young players with potential vs. literal bench fodder is something I've been wanting to see for a while now. I think the last time I got excited about a "big" signing was Rafa VdV from Real. I think one-offs like that can still...

    Putin & Russia

    In case anyone needs one, this is an excellent map that's updated regularly of the conflict: https://www.google.com/maps/d/embed?mid=1lscRK6ehG0l2V-XvJ16nsyblMsQ&ll=51.30863164145994%2C34.99051123417736&z=10

    Jamie Donley

    I was responding to a comment about playing in the Championship vs. L1, so it's about the level he's playing at as well. Otherwise... yeah, stating the obvious.

    Jamie Donley

    I guess the positive is that theoretically, he'll be playing a lot of minutes there. I'm thinking he will definitely make them better.
