I had an Epiphany last night. I decided that all people are equal, life is wonderful. All people deserve respect regardless of who or where they are from. It was quite an experience. I saw doves, butterflies and all sorts of wonderful creatures. I saw people dancing around maypoles loving life. It w...

hope not as on the evidence so far, he's crap at it. Can't disagree so far, one game apart where he played well on the right. But then if you expected Brady to be anything but a player who would take time to adapt, then you're wrong. I am not convinced Brady can do right wing either, let's be strai...

Care to define 'proper club'? Quite surprised you ask that. I'd like to think a club that has a history and is refined about it (Huddersfield) has done well within their means (Burnley) sustained the turmoil (Everton), retains it's beliefs and works within it's means (ok not so much Everton on that...

he absolutely does not, ian. he's spent his career playing on the left and we will waste him if we try and put him on the right. I have heard similar to Ian. Brady likes playing on the right.

My fiancee has a painting by a painter. Two actually, but one is a small one. We have interest and posthumously his work has gone up considerably. He was a famous Dutch star in his earlier days.

I'm not too worried about Huddersfield this year. I think they will finish rock bottom. Them getting promoted is a great achievement for them, but just look at their record in doing so. They lost 15 matches last season and had a minus goal difference. Compare that to us 12 months ago; Champions by ...

For me Johann Berg Gudmonsson will be like a new signing. He was firing on all cylinders when he got injured. He can cross a ball. And he can hit it too! Really looking forward to him in the starting 11. I do like JBG but I think his most telling contribution to our season may be in persuading Gylf...

If it was massively dissimilar from last seasons I may contemplate it. It's a basic random template design with the odd difference. I live in Liverpool, they'd spot me a while away anyway, so my regular shirt serves it's purpose. Now! If it was like the Ribero design of the 90's. That was a good one...

Guessing this is Simunovic the original player in the thread. 6ft 3 and knows how to tsckle for sure. Plenty of vids of him going through players on youtube Ahh sorry, indeed!

It is a bit odd. I'd suggest Ince is more one dimensional than Hughes, but then Hughes seems lighteweight, talented but lightweight. Hughes reminds me of Wilshire, talented, injury prone and did I mention light.... Ince, I've always thought of him as sturdy, bit of timber, bit of skill, found out to...

I've never seen this guy play, but a Celtic supporting mate really rates him. 'Very good. Absolutely solid, loves nothing more than chopping someone in half' I'd suggest he's thinking about a different player. He is only 5 foot 5 and probably likely to struggle chopping a banana looking at his stat...

146,234 lived in Huddersfield according to the last census. Although 216,000 live in the wider South Kirklees area. So quite a bit bigger than Burnley. (73,000) Aren't these figures a bit skewed though? Burnley's catchment area is pretty consistent and leaks as far east as Bradford (Hebden Bridge, ...

Fair point. I am getting mixed up with another game, but the link up play was exceptional.

He is on £25k a week so he is within our budget if he wanted a slight bump on that. Biggest problem for me is Man City will want most of their money back and I just cannot see us spending 10 million plus on such a young player. I agree that I think he would be a great signing but wouldn't surprise ...

Not being funny Saxo, but to sum up being a Chelsea (there are others) fan I point you in the direction of my best mate.

Wouldn't surprise me him getting a loan deal at Huddersfield if they are interested. Although from reports in Manchester Man City are looking to sell rather than loan, which within reason we should be looking at him as a potential signing Oh yes I'd definitely agree. Potential alone he is worth a p...

Seeing on Twitter that they Huddersfield are also readying a bid for Patrick Roberts. Again he will be the player that brought Roberts to Celtic last summer so again will have a relationship of sorts with the player Roberts is a player I like.

I am sure I read somewhere that Huddersfield had paid a keen interest in the Burnley model. So I'd think they're somewhere inbetween spending it all or going slowly slowly and hoping for the best. They've signed a player they already had and want to sign a hit and miss winger from Derby. Middlesbrou...

If links are going to play any part in this deal I would think it will be more Huddersfield's. They signed the chief talent spotter from Celtic within days of promotion. He will probably have been the guy that brought Simunovic in and will have a relationship of sorts with the player. That's an int...

It is almost like a mirror image of us and Boro last season. They made early signings - they are ahead of us They were linked with loads - we had no ambition They were spending big fees early - we aren't prepared to pay it They have almost guaranteed staying up with the players they are signing - w...

Knowing the way Dyche likes to set up and he does have a penchant for inverted wingers. It makes sense that he brings in an attacking left full back. I'd suspect he's looking at similar on the right. It also gives cover across the left. On the right we look a little under staffed now. So I'd probabl...

Be interesting if the Rangers/Newcastle links could scupper a deal there. Mike Ashley was heavily involved in that at some stage (may still be) loaning players etc. Bound to be some financial relationship. May not normally be an issue but with it being the Auld Firm, Celtic may be reluctant to sell ...

I wouldn't pin much hope on YouGov. I am a member and never received a survey on it. So clearly they pick and choose who receives them. This in turn gives a false poll.

I checked him up in a reasonably recent game for them and they had him in a defensive holding role in a sort of 4-1-3-2 formation and I thought that wasn't going to end well. I think they lost 4-1.

Some bizarre comments on here. They manage at the big International tournaments in Rugby Union with this. Is football anywhere near as complex on tackles etc? I don't think so.

Been thinking for a while now that the Hull v Spurs game could well be a decider for several clubs. Don't think we'll be in it though. Palace, Swansea, Hull and West Ham at the bottom. Spurs and Chelsea at the top. Still think Chelsea will mess up in at least one game.

All things considered. Confidence boosting performance and win at Palace, Baggies haven't scored in five games. I reckon a 3-1 for us.
