Yep. That goal, the goal against Norwich to win late on. and his header against Everton season before where I thought for 45mins we might have the next Alan Shearer.
Speculation The hysterical and annoying, but traditional, totally unfounded summer 2018 rumours thread.

Great set of fans? Who's trying to kid whom? And the stadium is sorely in need of some enlargement.

King, obviously, even when he’s the best player on the pitch.

I'm really pleased with our summer dealings.
Shifted out some high earning players who wouldn't be involved.
Brought in some quality experience in key positions with Evan and Pereira.
And brought in some good young prospects with potential who can hopefully already start to fit into the first team with Maddison and the two centre backs.
Ghezzal feels like a wild card but we needed something there.
Plus bringing through more of our own youngsters into the mix.
I also have faith that with Silva, Iborra, Mendy, Iheanacho etc we've got players who will do better after their first seasons.

Does anyone else remember how Simpson wasn’t first choice for a long time, was behind De Laet, but gave the manager a different option?
Beggars belief that people have been moaning about lack of cover for right back and now want to ship one out now we’ve got one in.
Unless my maths is bad that puts us back to “short” status.

I agree. Would much rather have Simpson as back up to Pereira than Amartey. There might be games where we need to be a bit stronger defensively rather than having a full back belting up the wings (ala RdL).

I’ll say one thing: the outgoing transfers have been superb for cringe social video this season...

It's worse than cringe. It's like hes in one of those rooms used for kidnapping ransoms. The rest of the video was him holding up today's newspaper begging us to not pay up.

In all fairness though, that's probably the best action they'll see from him all season.

Ture. I get the idea behind sunglasses to hide the permanent regret look he's had since signing for us. I don't get the flexing muscle shit though, my sparrow limbs have more beef than that.
