Oooooo burn. Jesus Christ. Imagine having a pop and laughing at someone for chatting about their team on a sports forum and then calling them names repeatedly, calling them vindictive and saying they should have a look at themselves.

You’ve probably convinced yourself that’s reasonable too.
----------------------------------------------------------------------
There goes that self awareness thing again. I’m not laughing at you for talking about football, it’s the rest of the shiite you come out with. I’ll laugh at anyone who styles themselves on Brent. All day long.
----------------------------------------------------------------------
I don’t think you can criticise anybody for not being self aware, while at the same time criticising people with this:

“You’re insulting/attacking everyone who doesn’t bow to you on here. Grow up or feck off yourself.“

Yep, you can keep saying it. It’s baseless.

Tbh, and I’m just going by the replies you tend to get, I’m not sure anyone cares what some bitter rat with little man syndrome thinks, so I’m just going to have to live with it I guess. Have a nice day.

What the fvck have I got to do with it?!

Someone mentioned earlier it’s looking like only possible VVD may sign.

Unfortunately I’m starting to think similar (hope I’m wrong)

I’ve believed for a while Trent is gone but losing Mo as well will make the summer business a lot more difficult

Still could be worse. Top of league and CL I mean we could be united.

I was just thinking earlier that if Trent is definitely going then there would at least be talk of him signing a pre-contract agreement but there has been nothing. Makes me think he hasn't decided yet.

Yeah it was me that said that Irish.

It’s just so weird to be this far into Jan, with all three being fair game for other clubs.

They’ll all get top offers too, just not from us by the looks of things and it gets harder each day to think otherwise.

We're going to have a memorable season this year but next year is attack rebuild time I think and fear. It would truly be nuts to let Van Dijk go though, he's the ONLY consistent player in our back five

Games like Forest probably don't help Salah's case for a new contract - he's becoming a moment's player so as he gets older but if he doesn't have that moment, Edwards/Hughes are probably saying 'fewer sprints, less tracking back, worse passing' etc

I don't believe that at all. You do know what the point is because you're not an idiot. You're just not prepared to accept it.

I like this board. At it's best it can be balanced, funny and interesting. So I won't fvck off. But I will leave you to your doom-mongering for a while I think. I've clearly not read the room.

----------------------------------------------------------------------

Don't take it personally! Good contributor, don't worry about the room

Anyway back to bumming. Never causes arguments

I don't really understand the preoccupation with Richard Hughes.

My organisation has a Chief Transformation Officer, I don't really understand what he's does but I don't necessarily think he should lose his job because I don't know his role or objectives.

The majority of my team probably don't know what I do. Doesn't mean I should be sacked. Given the amount of time I spend on this thread, arguably I should be but that's coincidence.

----------------------------------------------------------------------
When Hughes turns it around and signs our future stars, these same guys will be praising him and denying that they ever mocked him.

Lack of football knowledge, lack of patience and foresight will be exposed.

Hughes? I’d say so yeah.

Just out of interest Mamba, what’s the highest level of FA registered football you’ve played and what coaching badges do you hold? I’m genuinely interested.

We’re the 4th richest club on the planet. We rank 13th in wage bill rankings.

----------------------------------------------------------------------

Depends how you define richest I guess. The Deloitte report is generally considered to be reliable and for 2023 they have us as 7th highest revenue.

They also show a wages/revenue of 63%; in terms of value that ties in with 90 min report saying we have the 5th highest wage bill in european football.

https://www.deloitte.com/uk/en/services/financial-advisory/analysis/deloitte-football-money-league.html
https://www.90min.com/posts/the-clubs-biggest-wage-bills-in-europe-ranked

So not 4th and 13th, but 7th and 5th. Paints a different picture.
----------------------------------------------------------------------
I looked at UEFA’s report for 2024

Sorry meant financials for 2023

The new accounts will be out soon but you can reasonably predict CL income.

Chodu got dropped and I wasn’t present

We will have to spend huge in the summer and risk stepping backwards whilst our rivals will be looking to strengthen.

Starting slow for me is just a lack of focus and effort
----------------------------------------------------------------------
for me its like for forests goal, salah pulling out of a 50/50 just that attitude, trent, jones all big culprits of it too. Talk about setting the tone.

vvd dropping 50 yards deeper than his entire def vs chris facking wood?

He didn't drop deeper. He was in the correct position as everybody risked bombing forward thinking a counter was on only for Salah to lose the ball. One pass took out the whole midfield and defence apart from VVD who was left scrambling to get to Wood who had pulled out to our vacant right side.
