Doesn’t need to be turned into another transfer discussion anyways. I was reacting to news of a Thiago missing most the games of a very important month for us.

Precisely who we should be looking at. Would blow most of our summer budget, unless we convince them to take Keita as part of the deal. @LFCMike I didn’t necessarily mean boot him out the club, but we are going to need somebody more reliable as a mainstay to the midfield. I just don’t trust Chamberlain at all, Jones still has a lot to prove, Keita blows hot and cold and Milner is at the end.

As much as I like him, and think he’s great….is there not a time where we have to replace him? He’s just injured so much. We need another midfielder in the summer anyways, hopefully whoever it is can step into the first 11 like Jota and Diaz have done.

Nobody here is eating this up like entertainment though, all of us would rather go back to our normal lives, discussing how fucking useless Harry Maguire is as a footballer. But it’s a major situation unravelling closer to our homes and something that could directly affect the majority of people on this board if it spills over into a NATO country. Which isn’t exactly outside the realms of possibility when you have a mad cunt like Putin as the aggressor. I feel heartbroken for all those poor fuckers in Ukraine having to fight for their land, and it’s not because they aren’t brown.

Devil Dick Willie Is really living up to his middle name here. Get off the high horse that you’ve built yourself.

I don’t think it’s too hard to understand why European’s would give more attention to an invasion happening in Europe. Especially when the aggressor is one who has made threats by way of nuclear warheads being used.

Russia can fuck off with these threats they are throwing out left, right and centre. The whole worlds army’s should just go to Russia and batter them all.

Putin proper needs given a good hiding doesn’t he.

Yeah, I agree Mike….but fucking Burnley!!!

Losing the title to City despite our gargantuan points tally & losing the CL final to Madrid are the two most hurtful things in recent memory. BUT, fuck me, that 6-1 loss to Stoke and Burnley ending our unbeaten record at Anfield last season both hurt pretty fucking bad in their own right. I remember feeling shame that those scruffy bunch of trotters were the ones to end the run last year, made me physically sick.

Indeed, that one. Near perfection.

@MUFC is the teacher. Arrival - 9.5/10 Amazing film.

It was only a couple of months back I was saying that Poch would be dying to get the Utd job, because there are plenty of very talented players in that squad. And I still think that they are very talented, but you can’t ignore the fact that there is something massively wrong going on in that dressing room. Talk all you want about the problems from top to bottom at the club, but when we get to the squad, we see players like Sancho, Ronaldo, Rashford, Fernandes, Pogba, Shaw, Varane, De Gea etc. Those players are good enough to be thrashing Middlesbrough, yet they end up dumped out of the FA cup last night. I’m not sure I would want this job if I’m Poch. It just seems like a poisoned chalice, completely toxic in that dressing room. Unless he is given full reign to bin off the problems and bring in his own signing and given a long contract then I would say to him don’t bother if you’re wanting to build a team. If you want a good payday, take the contract but a long term project it isn’t.

Dembele just scored a class goal to complete a comeback win for Lyon. Excellent

Thought this myself. They were released for a reason, and it’s like everybody else who ever had an unsuccessful work trial or apprenticeship. It’s not like it’s the end of the road for them either, if they were good enough to be in the Palace academy, there’s a high likelihood that they will be able to get a spot in the lower leagues. Say they end up playing League 1 football to start with, it’s still a much better lifestyle than most “normal” people have.

Lampard would be an absolute terrible appointment. I hope it happens.

Do you believe you’ll have strengthened the squad significantly come Monday night? Enough to appease Conte?

If I’m Conte, I’d walk if we end up signing Luiz over you’s. That’ll be two public humiliations with Traore as well, where other sides have swooped in under your noses and signed the players you were wanting. At some point something has to give and the top and bottom of it is that it’s 3 days until the end of the window and Conte hasn’t been backed whatsoever by bringing in players when he made it clear it was needed. Just scream of Levy being a snake again.

There’s no chance in hell that we win the Quadruple this season

Halloween Kills - 5/10 Most of that score is because of how well done the flashback scenes were. I HATED the whole lynch mob plot though. Can’t say I’m at all interested in seeing the third. Face/Off - 2/10 I switched it off about and hour or so in. I know it’s mean to be over the top , but I couldn’t stand how over acted it was by both men. The pacing was terrible, the script was a joke and the action was forgettable. I really don’t understand the love this film gets from a lot of people. Fucking rubbish.

Pretty blatant looking.

Not expecting it to be done in a day or two but it’s been months now hasn’t it? Bit concerning it’s taking this long to find common ground.

I don’t get why there is such a delay in it. Salah has talked about it publicly twice now, putting a little bit of pressure on the club. FSG surely expect that he is going to be asking for a large pay packet, he’s arguably the best player in the world on current form and has been absolutely vital to us since the moment he stepped foot into the club. Clearly we are being cheap cunts and it’s ridiculous, pay the man and let’s have it done.

If Levy end up being responsible for Conte leaving by not backing him, then he should be hounded out of that club.

I have to say, I’m getting a bit fed up of Thiago being injured. Where did this injury come from this time? Wasn’t he meant to be back a couple weeks ago….but has now ended up needing rehabilitation on his hip.
