Know very little about this but if there are as predicted up to/over 1 million illegal immigrants in the UK, how do we find out who they are?

I get this wont stop the boats or them coming but what about the ones that are already here illegally that remain undetected?

Hoping it works out for him but cant help but feel like that money could have been used better elsewhere!

He is having a rough start. 

Newcastle away next aswell.

Potter could be in there before the end of the month!

I wouldn't say Nuno is an idiot at all. Would just go back to what I said originally that I think there has been a fallout somewhere down the line.

He's absolutely pony, and what exactly is it you've seen from him that offers more than the equally shit Rodriguez?

I'm surprised JWP was left out of the squad completely. Wonder if more to it than meets the eye and has been a fallout there.

JWP has drawn alot of criticism but he offers more than Rodriguez who was in the squad.  

What an engine this bloke has!

The way he ran round two Everton players and managed to still put in a great delivery was impressive.

Cant believe he is still only 20. 

We need to build a team around players like him if we want to progress.

 Very shaky start but was impressed how he turned his performance around into a solid appearance for the club.

Some very intelligent play rather than the usual sideways passing we see.

Also thought Potts came on and done well!

Good to see. 

He was one of the best players on the pitch. 

As bonkers as it is Potter playing 4 cms and no ST.

remember Bilic being insistent on Antonio being a RB. 

I think Potters idea of 4 cms on the pitch makes him even worse.

No Jose Mourinho is the far best option

Saw that from 2000-2016 we conceded 5 goals just once. That included some poor seasons.

since the LS move we have conceded 5+ 8 times.

sums the stadium up. Players can hide and opposition feels no pressure.

biggest mistake we ever made as a club. 

Get him in now. 

Line up with 4 cms and no ST you are asking to lose before a ball is kicked.

weak mentality. 

We could have got Ramsdale on loan and spunked 20mill on this bloke.

 

Madueke starts again. Don’t rate him. Certainly not on Bowen’s level.  wonder if he’d be starting if he played for us. Doubt he’d even be in the squad. no player has more goal contributions in the premier league than Bowen since about April time. When was the last time England had a manager who pick...

This is fucking bonkers

Why the Brentford game? Seems picked because of the day and time.

Spurs would be a much stronger message.

Football is performance based. If our form improves and we get say 7 points out of the next 4 games I don't see it gathering the momentum it needs.

 

Average age of the squad was 28 last year. Oldest in the league! Now down to 26.08 which was middle of the range last year in comparison with other teams. Dont know if this improves us going forward but should give us more legs which is needed more than ever in the Prem these days. The youngest squa...

One of the positives is getting the average age of the squad down. Fabianski 40, Coufal 33, Cresswell 34, Antonio 34, Ings 33, Zouma 30, Emerson 31, Aguerd 30 etc. Most done a good service for the club but their time had come.  Fernandes, Magassa, Diouf all being around 21 is a big plus. Hermansen 2...

Surely the Aguerd deal went through? Been sitting outside the Marseille training ground since we signed him. 

Waster. 

Apparently so. Can’t be both him and the Brighton bloke?

Maybe Potter going for 4 cbs and 4 cms.

SSN now saying Diasi on loan.

Clint went missing as soon as everything started happening that he 'told' us would not.
