    Hope the Walcott is no relation.

    I doubt it, he's proven to have an interest in science...

    Is it me or are names getting more like the ones you got in the early incarnations of Football/Championship Manager when all the real players had retired and you were just left with those automatically generated by the game. e.g Wu Li Barrington or Kendrick Llewellyn-Rodriguez.....

    Having done a little digging about, I've seen a lot of positives about Walcott, Cirkin, Binks and Parrott.

    Parrott's a sort-of-known quantity after his performances for the Ireland U17s and his being talked up by Martin O'Neill as the future of Ireland's team, he's drawn (obvious) comparisons with Robbie Keane - although his style of play sounds similar to Harry Kane's
    Cirkin sounds like the perfect left back to rotate with Ben Davies, as he's got the pace, control and attacking nous of Rose coupled with the crossing of Trippier, so if he's able to maintain his performances from the Youth level and continue developing he could be a useful player
    Binks sounds like a Baby Alderweireld with his combination of composure at the back and some accurate long-range passing
    Walcott meanwhile has been blessed and cursed with comparisons to Ledders, as his ability to read the game and composure at the back, coupled with his ability to play out of defence

    Obviously these reports are all based on Youth football, which is a very different beast to playing in the PL2 let alone the first team, but hopefully we'll be hearing a lot more about these players in a few years - preferably not because they've buggered off to the Bundesliga or Eredivisie...

  6. Apparently, we should be concerned that due to the longer than expected participation of England in the WC, we may not have Kane available for the first couple of weeks.

    Harry not available in August???!!? WTF - how will we cope?? <laugh>

    Mind you, missing the other 6 could be a problem......

    How will Los Ladrones cope without Varane and Modric?

    Let me guess, it doesn't count as he headed in from a corner?

    Llorente (11')
    Lucas (sometime between Llorente and Lamela's second)
    Oakley-Boothe (78')

    Atrocious home kit design.

    Squad strength / fitness to manage another PL
    minimum top 3 campaign is debatable.

    New WHL completion still up in the air.


    Does Levy actually need the angst/anger/hatred of the supporters
    as a food/energy source for sustenance ?? :)

    Yeah but now they have released the kit we can sign someone, a new signing wearing last years kit doesn't cut the Mustard.

    I agree with your view on the kit though, do we actually pay these people to design the kit or do they pay us? It looks like a fekking onesie

  17. The home kit is awful, absolutely dreadful. However, the away kit is impressive.
    Pity we still have to suffer the red of AIA on the shirts til 21/22.....

    1.44 of video and the kit's in it for 7 seconds. The rest is all about the stadium..........so either nobody likes it or maybe it's gonna be the Nike Arena after all?

    The away kit with those grey sleeves looks just like Pajamas from last century
