Sell a player who was the 3rd highest scorer last season?

We need payers like him in the team because if he's not playing he will up his game and if he does play he will increase the competition, if he signs a new contract it's a win/win.

He's only really useful if he's actually started in this midweek games we have coming up. His sub appearances are very benign at best (granted he's only returning from injury), so unless we see change or utility soon then I can see the logic in making way for youth or a different signing who can offer something different.

Looking at our team against the scum and city and the big difference between us and them is the creativity behind the lone striker

Our 3 are just not in the same league as theirs. Thats the problem we have

That's true, but they also have much more athleticism and movement. We have found well-creative players for our realistic pull, but we haven't adequately surrounded them with players who know how to open the channels for them.

Anyone in here, it's all too quiet for my liking.

Come on I know there's some of you who are yearning to get your shit off and moan about the club

Come on, someone?

The new stadium will be deathly quiet and will drain our resources before we get a chance to establish a place in the elite. It looks ugly and I'd rather not get a new one if it meant leaving WHL for a whole year

In the actual real spirit of the thread - I think Dier has been pretty poor the last few games.

Here's my unpopular opinion - we should seriously think about signing a midfielder in January.

We have played 20-some odd games and we still don't have a good answer for what to do when Dembele leaves the pitch. He is a powerful, calming presence that allows us to retain possession under pressure and establish attacks, and no one else has really been able to replicate his success at that yet. I would wager that almost all of our worst passages of play this season have come without him on the pitch, and almost all of our best have come with him there. Yes we have a lot of midfielders and pretty good ones too, Bentaleb Mason Carroll Alli Onomah Winks, but none of them have provided anything like what Dembele has - and additionally none of them are particularly able to do Dier's job if he had to be replaced for any extended length of time. Unless Poch thinks one of the above will be stepping up and learning to fill that role fast, we should look for a tough, experienced MF who can fill in either the ball-shuttler Dembele role or the defensive shield Dier role as needed.

Looking at the last few posts this thread has really lost its way now. One 'unpopular' opinion has 6 agrees, another isn't an opinion its a prediction and several are just, well, nothing but run of the mill onions. Some of you are just posting bollocks for the sake of it now.

I'm jangling the keys. Up your game or the thread dies. And you can assume that note came made up of letters cut from newspapers and magazines along with half an earhole :p

Danny Rose is fucking shit. We need a new left back pronto. Or play Davies.
