Walcott will bag

State of this bench…

A 30M man on the bench plus Mina (20M) . A very expensive bench i would say!

 

[Frenk]

I don’t think James is isolating tbh mate. That journo that said he’s been training alone is usually spot on

They can still train alone I think.

 

[Baines' left foot]

I find the Holgate bashing fascinating. I personally feel he is underrated and Godfrey is overrated. Both capable of a good game, both capable of a bad game.

Holgate was universally liked here at the beginning of last season and was labelled our best defender not too long ago. Just shows how fickle some people are.

I'll take 2 of what he's having Bartender

Make it doubles.

Go and have a look at Chelsea's bench

I cant help but look at our teams sheet and think where has Moshiri's money gone, Moyes had a better team.

He still has

Assisted by Holgate.

Oh so true! Holgates back passes they lick their chops.

It'll be interesting to see how Gray operates today. Another bit of pace in this lineup outside of Richy could do wonders

 

[Thomasc]

Gbamin should be put out of his misery, just get out of the club lad you are absolutely jinxed.

Holgate and Keane reunited in central defence, enjoy the calamity twins back together again.

as for the rest NEA, let’s hope they manage to break into a sprint at some point, best we can hope for.

 

[Donegal blue]

COYB, surprise me.

 

[blue in oxford]

The team needs us so lets get behind them and not get on there backs for the first thing that goes wrong.

 

[Zatara]

Holgate thinks he's far better than he is and results in far too many mistakes.

He's nowhere near Godfrey. If a bid of £10m+ came in, take.

I dunno mate. I don’t think he’s that far off Godfrey. Think we judge him that little bit more harsh due to his terrible performances at RB - which was out of position.

Not 100% convinced by him but I’m more concerned about Keane’s lack of mobility tbh.

Holgate was universally liked here at the beginning of last season and was labelled our best defender not too long ago. Just shows how fickle some people are.

If Holgate is worth £10mil then we must need to pay clubs to take Keane off us.

No wonder theres no outgoings!

Oh so true! Holgates back passes they lick their chops.

What about Pickford's catching?
