    I've always enjoyed these chat forums because you can talk about the football and have a laugh ...

    ... there's fewer laughs these days and some people, not all, seem to take everything so seriously, really intense at times.

    We're a club in great shape, going into a PL season and should be really excited.

    But there's so much angst about where the club are falling down, that Patterson is a serial rapist and Le Fée wants out of the club ...

    ... all valid opinions, I suppose, but it would be nice if the place could lighten up now and again.

    If we stay up Neil's value will be zero tbf ...

    ... he'd have to sign a contract for him to be worth money to us.

    Blows my mind a bit that people think whether a player starts a friendly or not is a tell tale sign they aren’t starting the first game of the season. Yes the core of the team will be full strength but clearly giving minutes to players who need it and time for new players to adapt and learn a system. Genuinely wouldn’t surprise me to see ELF & even Roberts start against West Ham.

    We also aren’t exactly going to show them our hand and the exact team 7 days before the match…

    This is one of the latest 'CB threads' from RTG after a quick look, they must have to merge these constantly.

    They're all absolutely identical and none offer any opinion, just ask the same tedious question.

    When will we sign a CB?

    'Delighted with the business so far but can't help worry about the lack of CB signing.

    Needs to be ready for West Ham game.''

    There’s not a chance Roberts starts against West Ham man :D . He hasn’t played a single minute with the “first team”.

    He only starts if Talbi gets injured

    I know, the echo did also put out the story saying he was being nursed back from injury. I think Talbi starts as well tbh I don’t think that’s necessarily why he’s playing so much pre-season. Roberts knows the system, Talbi has needed to learn it
