    It's possible. The lack of update on CAT is interesting given that the deadline gor the PL's objections was two weeks ago.

    Now I am messing with Burnsie's followers.

    The PL offered NUFC the chance of the ODT again and because of that this can be used as evidence in arbitration.

    Wrong. It is a form of settlement of a dispute and without prejudice.

    Give me strength.

    The embarrassing ****show of Twitter is something to behold. Between the ITK's, the even worse "I'm not ITK, don't shoot the messengers", the followers, the plane spotters and - worst of all - the twats messaging PIF directly, we really are awful.

    I think this is a cause for massive celebration for our fans. Boring bullet dodged.

    However lets not settle Bruce.

    Lets go and get Jones mate Potter.

    I'm unconvinced that a Rafa Benitez team supported with investment would be boring. Would be deadly organised but ruthless.

    It also depends what you mean by "boring", because Potter's Brighton are often incredibly ****ing boring.

    Thomas Tuchel's football is boring but very successful, to the point of winning a Champions League (like another certain Spaniard)

    To each their own.

    I've watched enough of Rafa elsewhere to decide that investment isn't the main drive for him in terms of his style. He just buys better players to play defensive football stop the oppo football. Just not what I like to watch but I would say he is a very very good defensively minded coach, who will generally deliver expected results. Whereas Potter's reign at Brighton has been largely hindered due to a lack of firepower. Nature of the beast at those type of clubs. When you look at his time in Sweden you get a true sense for the identity of his football, which is high press, possession based attacking football.

    Rafa's football would be boring whatever the investment. His time in Madrid tells us that and the comments from the players who were sick of worrying about the oppo (a vast array of attacking talent as always). He has a unique defensive way and will buy players otherwise top sides wouldn't be interested in. He'll then extract more than seems possible from them.

    Tuchel I think his football is more interesting to watch. Certainly at PSG. I think at Chelsea he spent a fair bit of time tinkering and instilling defensive solidity. Need more time to see what his long term reign there will bring. I'd say he is more Klopp with a closer eye on defence.

    Welcome.

    All you have to do is realise everyone who posts on here hasn't a clue what they are talking about and the longer the post then the less that poster knows.

    <cheers>
