Re: Assignon, Esteve and Fofana
The squad needs a bit of tweaking in two or three positions but I'm hopeful the bulk of the side we'll have next season are already here. This is where the manager and his staff earn their corn. They'll have a full pre season with the squad to get them up to the levels they were at in Oct 2022, righ...

Re: Vincent's Number 1 Fan
I'm actually the opposite of the opening poster. I am firmly in the Kompany in camp but my support was beginning to wane after the Arsenal and Palace games. Even though the past two performances have only got us one point it has been far more positive. No matter what division we are in next season t...

Re: Berge
If we are comparing last seasons midfield to what we are hoping for next season, then a replacement for Cork is the number one priority with Berge playing the role that Brownhill did.
A replacement for Cork was a major priority this season but that seemed to pass the recruitment team by.
