@RCorless33 Have they tried not getting their coffees from Costa and cutting out the avocado toast?

@poculumwinecup Yeah it’s a big step up for sure and will be very interesting to see how he used depending on the outcome of Rodri’s potential move away.

Had a lot of people scoffing at the Anderson fee and perhaps they’ll be right in the end… but a fantastic write-up by Michael here which puts numbers to my confidence that they won’t be.

I just don't think people realize how good Elliot Anderson's statistical profile is

I do get why people are very keen on Vinicius as a name but for me there are too many issues from tactical fit, to cost to general vibes for me. Think we should give it a miss even if it gives Arsenal a free run at him.

Nothing to see here... The US isn't drone-striking random fishermen, and they're also definitely not assassinating the prosecutors who are investigating the strikes.

What on earth are people so mad about in the replies?! 😭 “Footballer does photoshoot” is hardly groundbreaking or shocking stuff.

@CallumJRobinson @9320pod I’d argue, you can get away with a GK having a poor league season as PSG in Ligue 1 but unlikely to in the PL.

Cannot fathom how someone could remain so high on GD for City after watching a whole season of him looking like a deer in headlights with the ball at his feet and being so so feeble at set pieces in the most set piece dominant league itw right now.

This isn’t a dig at Trafford, more a reality check for a few people. If he were so good that he was going to displace Donnarumma then his next move would not be to Leeds. Especially in a summer where so many clubs were looking for keepers. Good luck to him. He will be a success

@CallumJRobinson @9320pod You’re right, we don’t have an overwhelming sample size for Trafford because he is young, but what we do have has been consistently v good, I wrote about it all before the signing as well as looking at other keeper options at the time here: alexdoesbits.substack.com/p/its-time-to-…

@CallumJRobinson @9320pod I don’t disagree that GD wasn’t great in the CL of that campaign but quite frankly he stank it up massively in the larger sample size of the league. By the numbers, his career has been remarkably inconsistent season to season and comp to comp.

@9320pod Not suggesting this was the case at all but there’s no counter factual to support either of our views so why not… what if he was the difference between 1st and 2nd?

@9320pod Aside from the fact that I’ve never suggested my opinion (which is all it is) is more important, what did Luis Enrique think of Gigi? Curious as to where his opinion ranks amongst the others.
