And now, he is injured in their last match and won’t play ucl apparently. Should I still go for him or look for other options such as Meret, Pau Lopez, Strakosha, Audero, Musso, Larsonneur, Farinez?

Keep with Gollini, like what Rahul said he should feature and has enough time to recover. Second best option is Strakosha. 4 minutes ago, andy1305 said: been offered erikson and zinchenko for my arthur, whats the chances of arthur rising and should i accept the offer? Arthur, he won’t rise but Eriksen is on the way down at Inter and Zinchenko is just back up at City. If you need the depth then go for the duo Mike0007 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Probably the most courageous thing I have ever witnessed on a pitch ... Give him an extra +2 ! Probably not the smartest thing to do. Many years ago I went in for a harsh 2-footer on my best mate, I mistimed it badly and you heard an audible tear noise. I was saying ‘I’m so sorry, so sorry’ etc (I’m utterly crap outfield, my mate played for a Sunday league team at the time). It’s only when I went to get up that it became clear that the tearing noise was myself, I’d royally bollocksed my ankle ligaments for the first time in my life. Like a knob I decided to carry on playing as best as I could (which as already explained - wasn’t very good without injury), I then went Karting (won as always) and then out on the piss. I was constantly on my feet for about 10 hours. When I got home and sat on the end of my bed for 10 minutes I then couldn’t put any weight on that foot. For at least 10 years after I could tweak it with ease, even just crossing the road and a car comes a bit quicker than expected so you break in to a brief jog - tweak, ankle ligaments buggered again.

I remember Carlton Fairweather at Wimbledon playing on after coming off worse in a 50/50 tackle. He was normally a winger but as we had used the 3 subs he stayed on the park and hopped around the centre circle trying to get close enough to people. Turned out he had broken his leg so the 20 or so minutes he carried on for made him even more of a "leg end" ledged with the Dons faithful. Luckily no permanent damage and he recovered to come back to the first team. Sareum and Sir Rahul 1 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Now to the future! UTCIAD One has to give the guy HUGE credit, what he brought to that Town is beyond measurable. Is he a particularly great manager? Not for me, no. He was the right place at the right time, much as Joe Royal was for my beloved Oldham Athletic. So many similarities between the 2 - both took them from lower leagues (Howes achievements are greater, especially in this financial day and age) but both were pretty crap with signings when given money to spend. Yes, Howe made some good signings but many poor ones, I don’t think you could ever proclaim that he genuinely had a nose for a good buy at that level, not like he picked up any ‘bargains’. He seems a genuinely nice guy but nice guys don’t win anything.

Sareum 125 Posted August 2, 2020 Report Share Posted August 2, 2020 Here’s one for you all... Do you remember the Chapecoense crash? I had to take my car in for it’s first MOT that day (purely to keep the ‘stamps’ alive as I could do it myself - my side arm is building race engines). I was sat in Weaterspoons having a full breakfast and coffee when it broke. I literally myself as my old man was the senior manager for the 146 but had been retired for over 10 years at the time (no statute of limitation). I phoned him and he was a bit panicked. He’d already had a stroke by this point. I did some digging off flight records. It wasn’t a 146 as BBC initially reported, it was an RJ. It was me that informed the BBC of that (I’ll have to see if I still have the emails?) The problem with that is that I knew I built the nose on that plane. My arse was twitching for ages. Pilot error. Thank . Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Also, what’s their long term potential? Ps:- I’m offering Matuidi plus cash for either one. At a stretch. I say this because if Liverpool go ahead and play C. Jones, N. Keita, or even bring in another midfielder next season then the Ox 🐂 will probably get more time on the bench and possibly leave after the next season or two.
