Yeah, forget the theworldwide health and economic crisis. He's a footballer and has the God given right to screw an industry out of every pound he can get from it. It just gives a bad impression of football and at a time when there are signs that people are losing interest in football and sports in general.

IHaaland and his agent might be in for a rude awakening when they sit down and ask for that astronomical salary. Such greed in times like this.😭

I'd rather we start thinking out our loan army of players who look well short of the level we need and make room for new players to come in. Connor really looked a very average player in a team that got relegated, so imho he's one of those we should be moving on. 15 mil is a decent price for him.

Palace want Connor Gallagher for 15 mil. Have to be honest and say I don't think Gallagher looks close to being good enough for our first team, so I don't see any point in keeping him here. A club the level of Palace would be a good move for him.

Can't challenge the facts so you once again come back with more insulting waffle that's all just inside your head. So there is no such thing as racism or discrimination towards White people then? Just a few examples for you. What would you call the Labour party having candidate selection policies on women and BAME's? Already the party has nearly 3 times the percentage of BAME people in the UK and Starmer promises to raise that percentage even more. The BBC have said they aim for at least twice the percentage. Once the BLM movement kicked off, the advertising industry decided to hire more black people to front adverts. I had no problem at all with that move because Black people were probably not fronting their fair share of adverts. However, it is very clear that the percentage is now hugely above 5 out of every hundred and that the industry is practising reverse discrimination. You're either against all discrimination, or you are not against it all. As for all lives matter. BLM very clearly do not think white lives matter as much as black lives. Only the other week they were on the march to a local police station after hearing about the death of a young lad shot by police. The march was instantly ended once they found out the lad was white.

These gongs are thrown around like confettti and become meaningless when given privileged people in sports and entertainment. I know a young lad who used to do his shift at work and then go straight to the FB warehouse to do his voluntary work for a 3 hours. It's people like him who should be getting some kind of recognition.

It was instant transformation under TT. From looking completely shot to playing better than ever. It shows just how important man management can be at the top level. Some players need a bollocking while others need an arm around the shoulder. Love to know what TT did to get Rudi playing so well so quickly?

Tammy is always going to look like Bambi on ice, but he still scores enough goals to be a decent enough 3rd choice forward for us. TT has treated him as badly as Lamps treated Rudi.

But he's more of a replacement for Jorgi and it's Kovacic who I want ousted from the side first. Jorgi has his flaws but I can at least see what he does for team. I am completely blind to what Kovacic is supposed to bring. The absolute definition of a nothing kind of footballer.

I must admit I've never seen Sancho play, so I can't even give an opinion on what I think he's worth. I will say though, I've seen and heard quite a number of people say he's hugely overrated and won't be all that in the Premier League.

Agree with that, but why is everyone ignoring the age old problem of Kova, Kante & Jorginho? Looks like we'll be going with a back five and any two from the above three. That leaves us with just three players to create and score the vast majority of our goals and that simply isn't enough!

Smacks of another panic buy. If we can't buy a striker of class, then save our money and spend it on a different position.

To be fair, they are making slow but steady progress under him.

Yes, first black manager in the top division and to this day, still the only black manager to win a major trophy. I have read that Ken Bates was actually a supporter of Enoch Powell, so credit to him for being prepared to put his personal politics aside and hire someone he thought was the best man for the job. However, he loses points for sacking Gulllit over a stupid contract dispute at a time when we were second in the league.☹️

I don't find it depressing because I accept where we stand in terms of how big a club we are. We're a big club, but we are not one of the real Euro superpowers in terms of history and massive support - Utd. Liverpool. Barca. R Madrid. Bayern and maybe Juve. We're in the group a level below those mega clubs.
