Potentially just cost them £160m... -

I've no love for Fulham, but I hate the Brentford model so I'm rooting against them. Raya's a better keeper than Walton, but he always has a mistake in him. Even before that howler he nearly gave up a goal with his shite header when he was 30 yards out of his goal. He also should have given up a penalty in the first semi-final (but the ref took pity on him as he'd sent off Henry). -

Imagine getting beaten from 40 yards to lose the £160m game. Calamity Raya strikes again. -

This Hector bloke is an utter donkey. -

Two over-hyped average teams from a cloggers league bottling it. -

Both Reed and Cairney lucky to still be on the field imo. Ref has been very lenient. -

They were both due to come on - suspect Mitrovic felt his hamstring again. -

Bloody hell, what game are people watching? Brentford just had 5 minutes of unbroken possession where Fulham couldn't get near them. -

Brentford more likely to score. -
Must be nice to sit at home for three months then go on holiday for two weeks.

Golden boy Reed has had an absolute mare tonight. Should have been sent off and continues to dive into tackles. His range of passing is poor too. -

It's the one position you shouldn't be cheap at. Hey, maybe they've found the next Guardiola. I just doubt it. -
Expectations for next season

Similar to when Newcastle came calling for Souness, I'd struggle to keep a straight face. -
It's different strokes. Mainly based on talent, I think. You have a lad like Mbappe who was playing at an insanely high level at 18. Then you have lads who don't get a proper chance with a first team until they're 21+.

Travis is the only one I care about. The other three are basically irrelevant.

There's so many massive clubs in this division and we're little ol' Blackburn Rovers. We'll do well to finish midtable. -
Our midfield is poor, especially if we want to play any sort of possession game: - Evans only plays well when it's contract renewal time. - Johnson is here for the pay day and is a 1 in 10 player (was also desperately trying to get a suspension post lockdown!) - Davenport never plays. - Bennett isn't a Championship calibre player. I appreciate that CB, LB and GK are priorities, but just because we have bodies in midfield doesn't mean that it's not a huge problem area for us.
-
We'd be raving about him if he was breaking through now. How times have changed.
-
He really is a fantastic man manager, isn't he? "We really want you - just not as much as a GK and a LB, so hang fire." Definitely a bloke I'd want to play for.
-
Bet he thinks he's getting Tosin back on loan.
-
Pretty much - I don't respect the football acumen of a manager and scouting team that spent £12m on Brereton and Gallagher and thinks Bennett should be anywhere near a Championship squad.
-
Defend from the front.
-
I wouldn't be surprised. The PL money has exploded in recent years. Remember when Rooney getting paid £300k a week was an outrage. Now it's the norm.
-
Joking aside, I'm sure our scouts know about these 16+ y.o. players who've been trained at elite Academies since they were 6. It's convincing Liverpool, Chelsea et al to loan them to you for a year. Our best Academy players are rejects from their Academies. The stranglehold they have on the game is insane.
