You disagree with us all who want what's best for the club. Its been peacefully great even without great results with you not posting here. Decent discussion where we've agreed and disagreed on Toby. Agreed and disagreed on Mourinho staying on. But by and large all respectful and on the same page about wanting our club to win. Unlike you who lives in a fantasy land where we are always doing okay and we aren't far off being great.

So where exactly is the controversy that means you behave like a knob?
Are you really that triggered that someone isn't screaming from the rafters asking for mass sackings and transfers??
Already took a 2 week break. Some decent lads in here, some that just want (Irony here) to be sheepIm really not sure what to do in this thread, i agree about the no insults and stuff. But i goes both ways for everyone in here.
Maybe the ignore function or just taking a break from the thread maybe the best option.
Yeah I shouldn't have responded to an ignored post yesterday. It's what I had done when he had previously posted here, just ignored it like I should. I'll cop that one chefIm really not sure what to do in this thread, i agree about the no insults and stuff. But i goes both ways for everyone in here.

Got to remember you go into games/following the team like its Geelong, everyone else is thinking Spurs.Already took a 2 week break. Some decent lads in here, some that just want (Irony here) to be sheep
Had a wander back and it has been systemic for at least a year and a half, insults and nicknames to people who follow the same club as you. I think I am just sick of it tbh, and don't want to actually have to report things as this is the most chilled board on the site.
Imagine if we ever go back to the shitness inherited when Sugar sold. Imagine that given the toys out the pram and whinging we get now.
It took me about 8 years of being on this forum to decide I actually like The Cryptkeeper despite him a Hawthorn flog.Got to remember you go into games/following the team like its Geelong, everyone else is thinking Spurs.
You are going to have a different point of view to everyone in here.
Oh I know and I would say that robust discussion and variance of ideas is healthy, but to be name called and insulted for it is why I am doing a reverse scouser and hiding away from the team thread on the main boardGot to remember you go into games/following the team like its Geelong, everyone else is thinking Spurs.

If you can't start against West brom you shouldn't be signed regardless of the fee.Reading those numbers jd2010, I’d seriously hope we think twice about triggering that clause on Viniscius. Very, very underwhelming

Can't argue with any of that apart from Lloris. But with the amount of yellow to improve its less important
With the yellow if they aren't HG we should be actively looking to upgrade them. Any with less than 2 years on contracts should be the first to be looked at. As I said Lloris probably not worthy of his green status so we've got 3 untouchables. Think we are about 4-6 short of when we used to be a top side when we had peak Lloris, Belgian CBs, Rose and Walker, Dembele, Eriksen, Dele and KaneI take yellow to mean “we should look to upgrade as soon as we can”
I see some yellow players as good squad depth and wouldnt move them on (noting we can turn over 60% of the squad in one hit, money, Covid, home grown etc).
You don’t need 20 green players.
Lamela, Sissoko, Davies, Doherty, Foyth I would keep.
In a perfect world I would move on Bale (due to wages unless there is a sharp upturn in form), Moura, Viniscus (have not seen anything to justify the fee), Winks (solid player, probably the one other yellow I would keep in the squad but he deserves a solid crack with more minutes elsewhere), Aurier (I still don’t see it. Some people are warming to him but not me), Sanchez (cut our losses), Dier and Hart (assuming we get another keeer to challenge/surpass Hugo)
We can’t upgrade 10+ players straight away.With the yellow if they aren't HG we should be actively looking to upgrade them.

No, but we should try to upgrade as many as possible. There'll be many of the upgradeable that we wont be able to shift out the door. But doesn't mean you shouldn't plan to upgrade them or try and offload them.We can’t upgrade 10+ players straight away.
As my post alluded to, there’s a number I would be happy to keep in the squad (either short or long term) as they can play a part, and others I would look to move on in the next window.No, but we should try to upgrade as many as possible.

I think they can all play a part if needed to in small batches.As my post alluded to, there’s a number I would be happy to keep in the squad (either short or long term) as they can play a part, and others I would look to move on in the next window.
