You mean the Chicken Chokers will be getting £27m to £32m for him. We won’t see a penny of it.

The guy in my paper today has it right about Foden - “ lacks conviction in an England shirt “.

It doesn’t matter where he plays, he’s very rarely above average for England.

I don’t understand the fuss about Foden. He very rarely influences a game. All he ever did last night was trap it and pass it back into midfield. He didn’t even try to beat the full back once. Rashford wasn’t much better.

It was just more of the same. Passing for passings sake.

According to the BBC both Utd and City are preparing to battle it out for Wharton’s signature this Summer. Somebody please tell me again that £ 18 million was a really good deal for us.

In spite of not having much of the ball in our half they cut through us a few times in midfield much too easily.

Too static. Player A passes the ball to player B who’s stood still. He bounces it off to player C who is also stood still. Play on repeat.

The Young Rascals - You Better Run

I see that Hirst lad who we had on loan has elected to join Scotland.

Every new season you replace your two weakest players. Irrespective of what you did the season before. We needed a new centre half ( Pearce ) and a new left winger (Wilcox ).

I could see what Eustace was trying to do even in the early days. Stop the leaking of goals. In the end he was successful. I’m prepared to give Ismael more time but at the moment I can’t see what his plan is. We are back to leaking goals again without being more expansive in attack and in front of goal. When he gets some important bodies back after the international break will be the time to judge. On another point I’m extremely concerned about the amount of soft tissue injuries we are seeing. In my experience it’s unprecedented in these numbers. What is going on behind the scenes ?

It won’t be long before you can “ safe stand “ anywhere in the ground. When gates are down to about 5,000.

That’s the only conclusion anyone can come to.

There’s no real accountability at any level at the club. From top to bottom. Nobody came in on Monday morning fearing the sack. It’s as simple as that.

I don’t remember that game at all. We defended like the current team going off the highlights.

Yeah , “ you never really beat Wales, you just score more points then them “.

When I first saw the “ Players Not Being Paid “ headline I thought “ That’s a good idea “.

They’re certainly playing like it.

Callum Davidson has just become available.

It had outstanding reviews in your favourite newspaper the other day.

Keeping Markanday would have been a better bet and I don’t think he’s up to that much.

We Five - You Were On My Mind

Doesn’t know what system to play. Doesn’t know his best eleven. I feel sorry for him slightly because we seem to lose a player to injury in every game we play. What are we doing in training ? The sooner we get Baath and Beck back the better.

That makes us looks a bit thin in midfield then.
