Just saw this picture and reeled the names off without hesitation (all apart from the staff member middle row far left - anyone?). Despite this being such a TV age, I reckon I'd walk past a third of the current squad without recognising them. Is it an age thing or do all footballers look the same these days?

I’d guess part of it is down to the TV age. Fans have far more knowledge of rival players as well as their own, so perhaps they don’t spend As much time taking in their own players’ features? Humans can only remember so many faces and names

We're definitely missing someone to link play between Maguire and Morgan. At the moment they're having to pass to each other. Get him back and it could be the final piece of the Puelis puzzle.

I would take Drinkwater back but only for ~10m. Anything over that he's overpriced.

The 2017/18 version even worse - he's not kicked a feckin' ball ffs

At least a dozen midfielders I'd sooner take from a Premier League side than him (and I don't mean the really good ones who wouldn't come to us in a squillion years like Silva or summat)

Wouldn't touch him with a bargepole

What you talking about? It only took three months for Silva to come to us

There's a game at the MK Dons stadium on Sunday May 20th featuring a LCFC Legends team against an MK legends team. This is a charity match and might be marginally more entertaining than the dross being served up by the current 1st team.
