    The Athletic

    Has anyone seen the thread on The Athletic website taking a massive load of the leading UK footie writers and they’ll stick them behind a paywall? They’ve got David Ornstein, Daniel Taylor, Oliver Kay, and loads of others. Gonna be quite the shake up of football reporting. I’ll be...

    Champions League Final - The Big Cup Build-Up Thread

    Thought it would be good to start a thread for all the build-up to the final which will be coming in the next few weeks. Here's some already. We've been selected as the "home" team for the final, but bizarrely Liverpool get the home dressing room. Also, Liverpool are going to Spain for a...

    Unpicking The Lock: How To Conquer Teams That Sit Deep at Home?

    This has been a never ending problem for us. So thought I'd start a little brainstorming session - maybe we can send the results to Poch? (Lol) Seems to me the main problem is when a team sits deep against us - we're not as able to win the ball high up the pitch and score with quick...

    Doesn't Danny Rose Teach Us Anything About Ryan Mason?

    I'm sick to death with the bashing of Mason after a few poor games. "He's not good enough", "We'll never be a top 4 side with him in midfield", "He's a Championship player" are the usual junk spouted. Yet on the left hand side we have Danny Rose, now getting universally praised as the best...

    Keeping An Unhappy Player

    Quite simply the line we were sold about it not being possible to keep Bale as his head had been turned was bollox. Look at Suarez now, and how well Rogers and the Liverpool management have played it.

    What Is Our Best Team?

    Simple question, but what is our strongest starting XI? AVB doesn't seem to know. Personally I would like to see the following given a go: Lloris Walker Vertonghen Chiriches Rose Dembele Capoue Lennon Lamela Townsend Adebayor Lennon and Townsend taking on their fullbacks, getting crosses in...

    Corners...

    Just looking at the current issue of 442 magazine, and they have a feature on corners, and the OPTA stats from last season don't make good reading. We conceded from 5.1% of the corners we faced last season, the worst in the league, the best was Norwich with just under 2%. As for scoring, we...

    Keep Bale - 35 goals plus next year...

    Passers and Runners

    Watching Basel last night got me thinking about our squad and the balance in attacking areas. They had such a nice balance in their line-up, and it helped them out-play us in both legs. It's such a simple blend too, have some players who can get on the ball and have some vision to pass it, and...
