I'd like to be proved wrong but I don't think he's one who will make the step up, at least not to the level a team like Chelsea need. A good Championship player for sure.
Not just that hit. His effort was better than all other Norwich players in that half. So, not just skill he showed right attitude as well. If he continues just like that he can become top player.
Gotta say I agree with this. Cannot see Bamford ever being an integral part of our first team. He will end up at Charlton Athletic, or at best, a club like West Brom.
Though I dont suppose Chelsea will care. We got him for nothing and will probably make £7-10m off of him when he gets flogged to whomever.
I think he's just getting over the twatting that Liverpool handed to them the other night. Probably ****ting his pants at the thought of De Gea leaving to join a top club too.
If Willian got us 15 pts this season, De Gea would have saved them atleast 60+ pts in the last few seasons.
Yep. Football began in March 1986 when Spurs were top of the league for 13 minutes and on course for the treble. When is the Dvd out?
I actually get your point for once. Least with playing youngsters we can start to bed them in for next year rather than a Mikel who is not a long term option realistically. However I think you are deluded if you think that a RLC will come in and be so much better and more consistent than a proven and solid international like Mikel. And that's also failing to take into account we have yet another short term appointment in charge who is not going to care about what RLC may do for the next manager and just wants to achieve the best results during his own short tenure. Does it also not make more sense to play RLC with Mikel rather than an out of form Matic?
Good post. I get the feeling that Matic will be on his way in the summer to be honest. I think Stan lets his hatred of Mikel get in the way of his judgement sometimes.
For the record I never dislike Mikel IMHO, He is just not good enough for us. Don't think Matic will be let go, unless some crazy money deal comes in. But Mikel will be around, because no one will be ready to buy him except may be some slow league like Serie A teams possibly. Agree about Gus being interim. However, we are at a stage where we don't have anything to play for. So Gus should focus on future irrespective of who the next manager is. Can you recollect Mikel single handedly carrying us for one or two games?? Matic did that for whole of 1.5 seasons!! Like I have reiterated - Form is temporary, Class is Permanent. Matic is out of Form & Mikel never had any class.
