We also stopped a lot of runs so it evened out, the declaration did us Nah if he hadn’t declared when he did this would have been a draw with a very dull ending. This is the way we are going to play now and it is great to see, it will work most times I guess but others not, but it is going to be 1 ...

Doubtless Bairstow, and not the selectors will take the biggest portion of flak for today's damp squib performance. Yesterday, predictably, his was heralded as a wise and bold selection..and today the chickens came home to roost. The reality is that playing with a part-time keeper has a draining an...

It is a tough decision but selectors (should) always have tough decisiond to make. They copped out of making it by leaving Foakes out. Yeh I think they got the bowling attack wrong as well this is not a pitch for Anderson to bowl and I don’t get the point of playing both him and Broad together anym...

JarrowClaret

Bairstow is nowhere near good enough to keep wicket at this level but we’ve opted to get him in because of his runs. Two crucial mistakes today though with the missed stumping and the dropped catch. Agreed about his keeping but we did the same with Russell back in the day, it just so happens that S...

Bairstow drops another.

It is so frustrating knowing our best keeper
Is sat with Surrey but Bairstow has proved that he must play it is just how do we fit him and Foakes in?

according to Nixon the bid for Bart is currently 13 million from both us and Brighton

I think Sascha was saying earlier we need to do a bit more fee
Wise but that he believes his preference is still to play for Kompany, so let’s see how it all goes!

Athletic suggesting that Muric could be on his way out if Verbruggen comes in. That would be interesting given loads of fans thought they would battle it out for the number 1 role Signing verbuggen for that fee now makes more sense if Muric is off, I had thought he would move but maybe in Jan or th...

Just to add what it looks like at the minute is the Ukrainians are doing lots of probing basically looking for the weakest spots, once they are found we will see lots of armour that seems to be being held back at the minute, Challenger, AMX10, Marder etc charging through them.

Tbf La liga I think you are massively under rating how hard it is to score goals in the prem. for context in our last season in the prem we only had one player that scored more than that. The next highest was Ben Mee with 3. Adams would represent good business. He has about 50 goal contributions in...

Keane Lewis Potter went somewhere for like £20m didn't he? Clarke has done way more than that lad had. I don't think us Sunderland fans expecting £18-20m for Clarke is unreasonable tbh.

This is said a lot but the stats suggest otherwise. As.Philip Collins has written v recently: "Leach’s record – 79 wickets at 31.88 – is much better under Joe Root than under Stokes – 45 wickets at 38.22" That stat is misleading as Leach goes for more runs with Stokes captaincy as they are setting ...

JarrowClaret

I think there is clearly a deal there for both players I wonder if we are just haggling over the structure of the deal rather than the final fee maybe we need to up the initial payments and guaranteed add ons! neither are worth 20 million though.

Breaking dams is not without precedent in war making. Apart from the obvious Dambuster raid the British broke some dams in the south of Holland in order to hamper the Germans.

I think the Russians blew this very dam in 1941 as well.

Why would Ukraine blow it up? Its an essential part of Ukrainian infrastructure and will cost billions to replace - its an economic and environmental catastrophe for Ukraine There’s no real long lasting reason for the Russians to blow it either all options are open for this.

Great achievement for SD but I hate this stay in the prem at all costs attitude they need a rebuild just as much as we needed it if not more and we now all know (if we didn’t already) that it is much easier to do in the division below.

Huge numbers here said he'd struggle in Brentford's system, too limited, too slow, too old, not a good enough passer.

Must be honest but I'll be most surprised if we see Tella in a Claret shirt again. Just my opinion but he's proved he's the type of player who can score goals to get a team out of the Championship. If as media suggest Gyokeres would cost around £25m, i'm sure Tella would be likewise and thus out of...

Interesting point you make. It’s fair to say that Dyche wasn’t backed especially in his last couple of seasons as the owners were trying to sell the club and maximise their profit. However, in terms of what Spurs will need investment wise to make them a genuine title contender/regular top 4, is Lev...
