England have been really good in patches - some brilliant attacking play - but have played dreary, ineffective football most of the time. We also have a reasonable defence. It all means we won’t score many but will still stand a fair chance of getting past Germany or any other team. It’ll be close,...

KRBFC

Don't fancy us against the Germans they've really hit form in their last couple of games, and it would be sod's law that after being just minutes from going out they'll probably go on to win the whole thing now. That doesn't even make sense lmao, how did they hit form and need a last minute goal to...

I'm surprised Galtier isn't being mentioned for any of these jobs, just won the French league title with Lille and quit a few days later.

KRBFC

Collins fee will be very similar to what we managed to recoup off Norwich for Gibson, with probably a couple of million extra on top. Should certainly be more to come, great early decisive start.

KRBFC

I expect some of the incoming transfers to be funded by outgoings. I'm not sure of that, I think we'll invest £30-40M and try to get the machine back up and running to keep producing talent to later sell, aside from Mcneil and Pope there isn't much else with resell value. Invest £40M this summer an...

Rumours floating around that we’re back in for Knight at Derby. Could be a decent price with their situation at the moment. What even is the situation at Derby currently? I thought they were due to get taken over by the Arabs interested in Newcastle, then it changed to an imminent takeover by a Spa...

So Collins likely to be a bench warmer for next season, then hopefully ready to step up the following year?

He'll start at right back until Tarkowski leaves imo

KRBFC

When we were previously linked to him, I kept my out for him when Derby played. Around Christmas he went through a real purple patch where he looked destined for the premier league. His touch and passing really impressed me. However the second half of the season seemed to really take its toll on hi...

KRBFC

Excellent 1st signing, a couple more of real quality and we'll be in far better shape!

KRBFC

For me, the greatest player of all time due to his track record of performing in multiple leagues, multiple countries and even internationally.

Nothing to do with the era of social media, we’ve been getting beaten by Germany in tournaments going back half a century

Then why would it be deemed a failure to get beat now? You literally don't make sense.

KRBFC

I must be missing something here, people don’t rate Phillips at 24 despite a MOM performance vs us at turf last year, has potential to fulfil but yet most got excited over signing a 36 yr old Ashley Young. I know they not the same position but I know which I’d take in a heartbeat. Phillips would su...

Some interesting posters approving of a pragmatic approach to football.

Wonder if it will last until August

I wish Dyche could bore me to an FA Cup semi final appearance tbh.

So 3 teams out of 4 go through, and still Scotland somehow manage to find a way to get eliminated, old habits clearly die hard for them.

only in 4 of the groups

All about opinions KRBFC, all good. Saka, not Sancho, the only one with an increased Bank Balance. Grealish came off on 68 I've watched a lot of Rice this season. (In Laws are West Ham fans) he's just not looked his composed self at times. Yes, you're spot on about Saka, very good tonight! I was ne...

KRBFC

Almost as bad as the Scotland game in the 2nd half. What did Southgate say to them at half time? Stop doing everything good you've been doing in the 1st half? At least we know a little more now So. Kane, out of form, sussed by Internation Refs. Looking slow. But undroppable. 2 of Sterling, Saka, Ra...

KRBFC

Very solid performance but a complete bore fest. Still, job done. I just don’t think we’ll know what to do when we come up against a good side and need a goal. That said, I think this side is better equipped to counter attack so who knows. No idea why he went 433 so early, there was 30 minutes of t...

KRBFC

That 2nd half was so fkn boring, another ugly win and clean sheet. Is Dyche the manager of England too? master of 1-0.

KRBFC

I haven't seen much of Bellingham apart from with England and a few CL games with Dortmund, he looks an outrageous talent though.

KRBFC

I've not seen enough of him to judge how good/bad/otherwise he is. More a point of the ridiculous valuations Liverpool put on their players. Yeah whoever sells the players at Liverpool is a fantastic negotiator, I still don't know how they got £130m+ for Coutinho, fine player no doubt but he was ne...

KRBFC

Yep, we bid upto 20m for Phillip's, didnt land him, but got Drinkwater on a free instead, then the money disappeared.... Burnley bid in excess of 12m for Adam's in Jan 19, we fall short, get nobody then the money disappears, but dknt worry Season tickets were frozen.. Absolute master at pulling the...

Some good points on here. I think this person should be allowed to compete but it needs to be in a trans category. If there are too few contenders to begin with it then so be it. It is up to someone to challenge them and more and more probably would over time. It’s infringing on women’s rights othe...

KRBFC

Probably best to forget about this one then. Liverpool's "right price" will probably be double what anyone else in the world thinks he's worth. The Liverpool central defenders were all over the place against us, I lost count the amount of times we pumped it forward and the CBs either let the ball b...

Che Adams was another on our apparent radar along with Kalvin Phillips however we just fell short of what the selling club wanted.... MG made a very good job of telling everyone we were in for these players and had decent bids in, but sadly they never materialised. Just part of his smoke and mirror...

Neil Jones has reported for goal the below. Burnley & Brighton at front of queue to sign Nat Phillips this summer. #LFC reluctant sellers, but will do business at right price.

I've never heard an ex player come out before the season to the newspaper and publicly mention ''taking back control of my own career''.

KRBFC

Massive worry for me if that is the plan. Re: Collins I can see him starting his career at RB until he has games under his belt. If Tarks goes I think we need another player with experience - Cahill might be an option for a year. I’m hoping Tarks stays though. Tarkowski is going to Real Madrid to r...

I hope you’re right. So far there’s not been much indication that there’s a whole load more to come, unless Southgate is prepared to release the shackles.

There simply has to be more to come, so I believe there is.

KRBFC

If we turn up with a must not lose attitude as we did against the Scots, we'll no doubt labour for 90 mins and grind out an eventual win. I'd like to see us play with a bit of verve and confidence - we're certainly capable of beating the Czechs 3-0* - there's no excuse tonight for more tedium and p...

Where are you getting these FACTs from? Common knowledge, information is readily available for you to research. The accounts were published, many financial experts have commented on funds being available pre takeover, numerous reports of the takeover structure using cash reserves. I mean it would t...

KRBFC

Aren't you cherry picking the info there a bit though? Its after the take over, which we know has been partly funded by the cash in the bank, and its after a couple of tough years financially And the wage to turnover ratio trend is clear to see (70% is the recommended I seem to recall) All I'm sayi...

I doubt very much that Sean Dyche would have played Craig Dawson at full back.

Pulis did at WBA didn't he? maybe he wouldn't have planned to but with Mee and Tarks in the middle I could've seen Dawson at right back and we'd have been lethal at set pieces in both boxes.

You can either live in the real world of football finance (which isn't going to be pleasant reading if you think we've millions in the bank) or you can keep pretending that FM is real life.

I can’t understand the negativity either and thought it was massively arrogant to think that all we had to do was turn up and we’d beat Scotland.

Tonight’s a far better indicator as to where we are as a team.

I think we'll beat the Czechs 3-0 tonight!!

According to Leanne Bagnall the medical is booked for Collins.

Maybe this will be completed imminently

Who is that? link?

KRBFC

Well it does. It fills in the gaps in the previous statement and tells us why Mount and Chilwell are isolating. Had they not had a 25 minute close contact chat with Gilmour all would be OK for them. It tells us why but it makes zero sense, you don't consider playing football to be close contact? sh...

KRBFC

I know nothing of this lad, but there’s plenty to suggest he’s got plenty of potential. Hopefully these latest articles are on the mark - it’d be great to get a good signing in early doors - and in a key position, whether Tarkowski stays or not. He'll be our new right back imo, I think Dyche would'...

Just try and be a little more pleasant. As you say, the sun is out, don’t waste your time being so angry all the time at “faceless” people on the internet. You could always just choose not to read the board if it’s getting to you so much. I hope we have a signing soon too. God knows we need a few. ...

Just the same as before in Iceland it shows a lack of responsibility from the players and a lack of discipline from the managers. If you had the chance to play in finals for your country the only time you'd risk something like this if it you couldn't give a damn about playing. Better off without th...

I'd imagine that you are basing this on the fact we paid (paper talk) 15million and sold for (paper talk) 8million meaning you see that as a loss of 7 million. I'm sure Chester is basing this on the fact that as Gibson has been at Burnley/on Burnley's books for a couple of years his initial cost to...

I don't think you don't need to be Scottish to see that a fluent, freely-attacking side playing with the intensity the er, "scary" Danes did would cause the English defence severe problems. Perhaps your agenda is blocking your view ? I don't really have an agenda, I'm just positive about England's ...

From what was said on the radio yesterday they weren't. All players apparently had their own separate room. Their own separate canteen, dressing room, gym and games room? I highly doubt that, there was a video of Gilmour playing table tennis with Robertson. Not to mention they just played a footbal...

I don’t think it should be allowed it should be men & women only & that’s it with no exceptions, without discriminating I think allowing mixed genders just complicates things & opens the floodgates for other genders/sexes to come out of the woodwork, keep it simple & hassle free & everybody knows w...

You couldn’t be more wrong if you tried. She, SHE, is a legally recognised women.
