If he's a brilliant keeper who cares if he's a prick?
The rest of the squad might.
It's a team game where morale and camaraderie are important factors. One arsehole can do a lot of damage in the dressing room.
I wouldn't expect you to appreciate that though.

I know most of you will disagree with me but I don't really care. My view on Andrew Tate is that he is an Agent Provocateur. I think his father was a CIA asset. I believe he has been allowed to rise to prominence and influence people in the way that they think and behave. You can add Farage, Trump,...

Took it up about 4 years ago and I’m loving it. Initially it’s very difficult to adapt to as your first instinct when trying to get to the ball is to run.

I don’t get the little digs at our best player this season and probably most important.
Because the truth is he's bloody awful at free kicks and should never be allowed anywhere near them.

Neither Mee or Tarkowski were particularly quick and whilst they did struggle with pace on occasions they were good premier league defenders.
The difference for me is that I think Ekdal has more quality/ability and with the right support could do very well.

Really happy with the Tella signing. Ok loan only, but he looked decent for Saints - I’m surprised they’ve let him go albeit temporarily.
All in for a striker now.
Not sure why but I have a feeling that the Tella loan will turn into a permanent deal.
