    He made a mistake and admitted moving to Saudi wasn’t a good idea…

    You won’t turn up at the training ground. I’d wager you’ve not even been to a game this season, never mind the training ground.

    Not worth betting on... I remember doing well when Gus pulled off the great escape

    People going on about morals. We can all judge other people’s morals. I’ve judged a few who are doing the judging. You can’t go on about protecting one protected characteristic and hate on others or laugh at the birth facial disfigurements of our own coach. Bored with it now. If Henderson the Mackem plays for us he gets my backing.

    some fall off for them in my mind and highlights their poor recruitment

    pep has spent a fortune and the only way it’s worked for the most part is that he’s had that many rolls of the dice is ended out on top

    they pulled out of the wirtz deal, when in actuality he turned them down

    speaks volumes

    this cherki is a maverick, pep will ruin him

    The contract would not have exactly been pushed under his nose and he would not have been forced to sign it there and then. He would have had plenty of time to ponder. The fact he even would consider it and wrestle with his moral code would have surprised me. A resoundingly instant 'no' would have been my bet. He must have known that the shiny moral pedestal that he built himself would have been pulled from underneath him. And youd think an extra '0' on his bank balance would not have been worth the ridicule and embarrassment. But obviously, to him, it was. Basically, he ended up making himself look like a right twat. Ive no time for him at all.

    I dont think hes got the body type, Dembele was truly unique though to be honest and would set a high bar for many a midfielder.

    I meant the type of player. He’s not on Dembele level yet

    I kinda wonder if they’re a bit of a mess tbh. Massive squad with some square pegs in round holes. Little chance of keeping the whole squad happy. It wouldn’t totally surprise me if they underwhelm next season.

    I wonder what they’d rate Greaves at now. I thought he was quality at Hull but not sure how he performed overall last season for Ipswich

    Best bet I had on was for Sunderland to finish the highest north east team, didn't realise at the time Hull had been included.

    That was the season we finished 5th off bottom ahead of Boro, the mags and Hull (and west Brom)

    Yeah. I’ve seen a good few on here judging you when they’ve called you a prick amongst other names. Seems I’m in good company.

    A post on French twitter claim we’ve enquired about Quentin Merlin, left back from Marseille. Anyone know much about him? I remember him being a wonder kid left back on Fifa career mode a few years ago.

    Cant wait to see more players linked in the coming weeks! So exciting. I have massive confidence in the club bringing in the rights players.

    Guessing the players return to training on 1st july, fingers crossed we have a couple in by then nice and early

    my wiki scouting says he was only signed by Marseille for 12m last year and seems to have played plenty. You’d think even with our prem money he’d be a stretch
