@hutch172 Likes his 3 at the back though and it’s rarely been a successful formation in the prem. I think only one club has ever won the league playing a back 3 and that was Chelsea under Conte.
@prodnose Poor comment this Danny. I generally like your football views but remember Derby in the Anglo-Italian cup final in the 90’s & being gutted we lost! This is a far superior trophy (similar to the old cup winners cup) & brilliant for Palace. You’d be lapping it up if it was Millwall
@dazw71 Also take a look at Almeria where he completely overhauled the club off and on the field (in a sustainable way) and took them back to LaLiga before selling them in a better place.
Interesting one for the Independent Regulator given the widespread reports about his involvement in severe human rights breaches on behalf of the Saudi state.
Derby County are in talks with Saudi sports supremo Turki Alalshikh over a potential investment deal. Negotations are advanced and now with the Independent Football Regulator #dcfc https://t.co/m3DcEwDhX3
@BackseatsmanLFC Worst thing about the season is having 15 points in the first 5 games so in the last 33 league games managed to get just 9 points more than West Ham.
@su4eranio Foden has had amazing seasons in the past but looked poor last season. Should be nowhere near the squad as proved to be. I do think Trent is a great sub option. His delivery is class. Bring him on for last 15 mins in games for that alone.
Takes quite a substantial leap of faith to believe that Southampton spied on Oxford in December (who had 4 wins in 21 games at that point) and then put the binoculars away until they played Ipswich in April
@bensmyth18 That’s what I said. If they’ve cheated all season. How come only one team has benefitted. I’d rather a huge fine distributed amongst all the other clubs. Maybe a parachute payment £1m per club… Sounds fairer than this
@BelvoirRam I think they need to only give penalties for blocking shots on target. Give an indirect free kick (and a booking) for a hand ball like this in the box.
