    This sounds like a Burnsy rumour to me.

    Tbh it could be any number of things.

    For all we know MBS rolls his eyes listening to kill his dreams.

    Is this true? And is it because of Howe?

    Okay, let's turn this around. None of your events happen and Howe continues with favourite 11. Tripper, Targett etc sit on the bench apart from minor sub roles. If they were getting decent game time then keep them around but we all know how Howe operates now. Targett will not play and Tripps unlikely too either. We need fresh blood to give the squad a boost. We cant just keep these players till they are worthless. Just like Dummett, we kept him around and when he finally did come on for a match, pulled back Young and gave a penalty away and lost 2 points. Great plan keeping him around

    No idea but I watched the flight come in at around 4pm Yesterday. It was due to fly back at 9am.. I then noticed it had been delayed and some reports of a payment issue.. It was delayed once again and then changed from a flight back to turin to Germany.

    But as I've said numerous times this is all on the premise we are NOT going to sign anyone. Sheesh.

    Yeah we are not signing anyone.

    Howe wouldn't even play them anyway so what's the big deal.

    Well Howe will be very happy if that is the case.

    It’s really weird right now.

    We have 3 players earning upwards of £100k a week and they don’t play.

    Targett Trippier and Kelly.

    4 of the first 11 yesterday played for Ashley.

    This is true. Spurs signed a new CB. Let’s see if he starts today.

    I'm convinced that there's a power struggle. has burrowed himself into club like a tick and he doesn't want a Mitchell being allowed to do anything.

    There's almost some kind of my way or nothing at all scenario taking place I feel.

    I could be completely wrong, but Howe definitely didn't like him coming in.

    Change the record, please.

    It is not Howe’s final decision. Otherwise, what on earth is Mitchell doing?

    By the end of play tomorrow let’s see.

    Wednesdays game is huge for us. But probably as big for Howe.

    I’ve said on many occasion that when the big games rock up we as a club always fluff our lines.

    If they score an early goal the atmosphere will drop like Steve Taylor saving a shot and then acting like he got sniped.

    That is a very good question. What IS he doing?

    I think on the pitch is fine personally and it's why Howe has probably earned the right to defend his territory, but if he's puffing out his chest too much his assailants will pull out his heart if the opportunity ever arrives.

    We are all guessing really.

    Yep 10 wins out of the last 12 games shows the donkeys we’ve had to play at CB right up.

    That's a selective stat but if you're looking at the issues you can identify where they are regardless.

    Otherwise everything is perfect and you never improve or could end up patching up the wrong areas.

    The club knows.

    Given that he doesn’t have the final word perhaps the issue is actually Mitchell.

    Too many on here with pre arranged agendas. Let’s not let the facts get in the way. <doh>

    You don't know that he hasn't mind or how much his say could stop something in or out.

    The fact really is nobody knows who's been kept or sold and who's been for or against it.. There might be ones that got away or bullets dodged.

    We never have all the information.

    For all we know Juventus decided they don't want an obligation to buy without a number of games clause factored in.

    We can all speculate.
