Forest have spent between 3-400 million putting their team together, they are TWO places above us. 100 million, like it or not, is absolutely **** all in the 23/24 Premier League. I genuinely struggle with how people can't see the bigger issue here in terms of the pyramid, if the next 3 promoted te...

They did sign Gustavo Hamer though and he was the dogs nuts on here in August. He might be out injured now as I don't recall seeing his name much since. Hamer has actually not been as bad as your making out. 6 goals contributions in 25 apps from CM certainly isn’t to be sniffed at. Has he been a wo...

Kompany extending JBG’s contract, playing Brownhill most of the season over his own signing Cullen and playing Charlie all year is pretty good evidence Kompany doesn’t have anything against Dyche signings. I think keeping Josh and JBG would be a good idea. Both have different qualities. Although I ...

I’m expecting around 20 movements this summer.

12-13 out and 7-8 in.

scores plenty in international football, the PL is a whole different beast though - he would deffo do well in other leagues (and before anyone says it I don't mean League 1!!) To be fair his international goals have come against the equivalent of Stockport. But regardless I agree he’s a player for ...

The only problem with the 4 is Saka and Foden both left footed, both so dangerous cutting in from the right Interestingly most of Fodens goals actually come from him playing on the left (I know I found that strange as well). Personally I think this is how England line up at Euros (midfield onwards)...

I would go as far as saying Foden has been the best player in the league this season, he’s stepped it up a level this season

Totally agree.

As a side note Englands front four right now is arguably our best in a very very long time.

Saka, Bellingham, Foden
Kane

After De Bruyne, he’s the best midfielder in the league.

Think Foden would have something to say about that (especially this season)

Sorry to pop the balloon here…. As probably Chris Woods biggest fanboy on here, who also thinks Amdouni has huge talent but has been let down hugely by the system he’s being asked to play in personally. I’m sorry but whatever talent Amdouni has file it under Weghorst. Never ever a premier league pl...

What material difference will it have to next season if we finish on 13, 17, 20, 25 points? The seasons done and has been for months. Statistically it does have a considerable effect (especially for a club like us in our supposed financial position). I believe the stat is any team that achieved les...

If that’s abuse then every single football ground up and down the country is rife with it.

Give over that’s some fans letting VK know what they think of him.

If you had been there you would have seen it yourself.

Do you not think it might be appropriate to consider the different levels of football?

Regardless of level it’s statistically the worse season in our history.

Nope

According to the old internet in a 3 point season our lowest ever points tally was 30.

We are going to come some way short of that. Stats wise this is our worst ever season

I don't doubt he will be under pressure, I've said previously I'd look after 10 games, if those fans are sick of him, perhaps they might consider staying away Tbf I don’t think that attitude is beneficial for the club at all.

Was it diabolical, or unlucky, seems you're struggling to decide. This year has been crap, agreed...

We can throw a lot at Kompany this season, but not today. Set the team up right to win the game. Sadly he's not in control of individuals at key moments in both boxes.

Give over

We all knew the second the team sheet was out that it was a loss today.

Newcastleclaret93

I think I’m in the minority where I think he doesn’t suit our style and actually causes us problems as a result.

Still think he’s arguably our technically most gifted player. But I just can’t help think Cullen has been dropped for him and it’s really effected how we play.

Newcastleclaret93

How benson can not get in that starting eleven is truly a modern day mystery.

That’s got to be up there with one of the worst starting elevens I’ve seen us field at this level.

Probably go an win now haha

Luton are fighting and still lost Us spending more money than them is irrelevant, you don't win matches in the bank - just ask Man Utd and Chelsea. That said, I think Edwards is an absolute credit to Luton Tbf there is a direct correlation between money spent and league finish. That’s been proven o...

I must be from a different era.... I would never, ever want a rival to win, ok it's a long shot, but whilst it's still possible, however unlikely, to survive, you've got to support your club, and that includes hoping and praying that your rivals lose... And to see a burnley fan say "come on Luton" ...

People can compliment another team without someone coming on here trying to start an argument.

Fawning over Luton continues, we gave Villa a better game with 10 men and we were the away side!

Can’t you just appreciate Luton are plucky championship team making a real fight of it.

It’s not even a comparison to us as we are pathetic.

Luton are just good to watch

He’s been pretty poor whenever I’ve watched them, tbh. Not posted it on here because there’s enough negativity, but on the evidence of his Hull performances there’s absolutely no reason he should be anywhere near our first team in the Prem.

It’s a multi million £ business and should be run as such

That’s what he’s doing
He doesn’t need to be a football man, because the majority of footballing decisions aren’t being made by him

I got the impression from the documentary that he’s a lot more involved than you would think

To be fair what’s he supposed to say?

We massively ****** up everything season and are back to square one?

Not exactly gonna read well for him is it

Not even bothered about the result or who plays.

Just want to watch a competitive game where our lads come of the pitch with a bit of sweat on the shirt.

I'd rather watch paint dry than Man City, dull as ditchwater.

I really do understand this.

Every time I watch city I get bored of the possession based football (although in small waves they can be very entertaining).

Much prefer to watch Klopp style. It’s more in your face aggressive

He isn’t taking a lot of flak at the matches though. And I don’t call criticising him on here flak.

Was a really good post I agreed with until “The only way ALK will make money out of Burnley is by selling the club.”.

And will more than likely be punished again. As much as they have broken the rules the last three seasons they have also made a profit from p...

They cheated, admitted they cheated, said they knew they were cheating and even explained why they cheated. I'd say that's a lot worse than going bankrupt. It should have been a straight relegation.

From you that’s funny. You said : “The most expensive, promotion winning squad together” So you are saying that is an “absolute truth” ?
