"overrated".

Marginally.

Let's talk about 09/10 - when we played with a higher line under Ancelotti - was JT exposed then? No.

For me it's no question about who should get benched between Cahill and JT. Why it's seeming like its the latter... I will never understand. JT's leadership and organisational qualities alone should put him ahead of Cahill.

Stones is a completely different sort of CB compared to Zouma. Stones can also play RB very competently. In fact, we could easily play something like: Azpi - JT - Zouma - Stones. Or partner up Zouma and Stones in some games because they're both mature enough. They complement each other very well. For me, John Stones isn't a signing for just now. It's an astute signing for the future. The Zouma - Stones partnership could be amazing in the future.

Wow. Must be noted that this is for the reserve team however.

Alexis as well...

Isn't this equivalent to saying that Eden should leave as well because we don't fully utilise his talents either?

Isco was playing the Modric role at Real last season at times, he's much better than Mata defensively and has really good work rate.

PS - I play American Football at my university myself and also watch a lot of NBA over the year and it's impossible for anyone to tell what atmosphere is better by just watching it on TV.

Read again . It was an accident.

I'm not being bitter at all, just wondering how you're gauging these atmospheres pal. I'm asking in the most inquisitive ways. Why do you feel like the atmosphere is better? I've been to the US plenty of times and have been at a game at the Gillette Stadium (Patriots), but I've also been to plenty of PL games and from my very small sample (because I haven't been to every single American Football stadium or PL stadium) it's absolutely impossible to gauge from that which atmosphere is generally better.

We are buying. We've just brought in Baba and are linked with getting in Stones as well. It's different to what Klopp experienced at Dortmund because we aren't selling our best players every season. People are complaining about the fact that we aren't addressing weaknesses in our squad that has been apparent from last season even - the RW and CM areas in particularly. They aren't complaining about us not spending any money because we are. It's just sad to see that we aren't strengthening in the areas where we need to.

Not sure what happened to his set pieces. They used to be amazing.

One thing I do like about Baba is the fact that he seems quite ambidextrous.

What exactly did Falcao do when he came on?

Even if you rate Oscar higher, what you can't deny is that Isco would provide proper competition in the AM strata.

Man City are still looking for a no. 10, would be scary if they got Isco.

They are quoting the Daily Express who said that we might be interested, and have completely spun it into a sensationalised headline. I wouldn't get my hopes up tbph.

I really don't understand how everyone is dropping JT, and not Cahill, from their preferred line ups? Do you guys trust Cahill to lead the backline?

Would be too good to be true tbh.

Have you been to every PL stadium and to CenturyLink Field for you to say that or?

I actually hope you're wrong on this Tom.
