    As a fullback myself I would tell them to not let him cut inside, then if he does, blame Romeu for not getting across in time to stop any shot and claim I was showing him inside. #teamplayer

    When I played Full back I’d just bomb on and blame a midfielder for not covering me!’

    I wouldn’t have him ahead of Boufal or Tadic.

    Sounds familiar. My other go to is to shout at the winger to track back then, when he does, quickly run past him and take up his (and my rightful) place on the wing.

    I wouldn't necessarily start him ahead of either. He would give us an extra option though.

    More goals in him than Tadic.

    Tadic isn’t about the goals though. If we ended up with Andros, I’d predict people would be calling for Nathan back.

    Crazy. Scott Dann is an excellent defender, massively experienced, and a real leader. He is what we are crying out for.

    I still believe in Redmond, and consider most of our fans to be idiots <ok>



    I don't preclude the possibility that I may be an idiot myself.

    Will be quite something if a team who lost their first 7 of the the season overtakes us.
