Re: 'Rooney rule' adopted by the EFL

Is there a lack of non white managers because they believe the system is rigged against them, so they don't bother applying, or getting their badges? If they start to believe they'll get a fairer chance then this could lead to more former players taking their badges. It's good to see new managers g...

Pope or Hart?

Just want to throw something out there: If we could only keep hold of one of them this summer, who would it be? Pope obviously is our youngest goalkeeper, and has a decent season under his belt, but has also barely played in the last year and I doubt he'd be happy playing second fiddle to Heaton aga...

Re: Realistic Lineup for next season?

Deschamp stated that he didn't include Laporte in his World Cup squad because they can't have two left-footed centre backs. I don't see how it's different to having 2 right-footers playing there.

We didn't do everything but put the ball in the net. Our only shot on target in the 2nd half came in the 90th minute. That is unacceptable against 10 men.
