Was hoping to find a few boss ones but then found myself on the first page saying I love him.

I like Holgate. NEA. Would have become a better player if he didn’t have about 15 gash managers.

He would’ve been bought by a good manager if he was any good.

I would say that I'm clean on this in recent memory, but I did talk smack about expecting McNeil to have ten goals in his boots when he joined.

Hold it up to the light and repent...owning it is the first step to enlightenment,Kind Sir.

I'm sure you can find other sins, if you look. I'm just saying that this one (and I have been pro-McNeil for a while) is the most obvious of my recent failed calls.

And what a future it was.

Now, before people inevitably get too upset about being told their bile ridden views were bile ridden, I'm going to vault myself.

Cringing so hard here urgh.

Tbf on the Sandro front, absolutely no one could see just how tragically bad he would actually be

Honestly he’s one where you really could. I’ve been wrong about loads of players in both a good and bad way, but Sandro really just looked a bit crap right from the off. Some players it’s hard to see what went wrong but he was just a rank bad bit of scouting.

Before we signed him no one could’ve predicted how bad he would be. I was shocked that a player who’d actually played a role for a Champions League winning Barcelona side and had just scored 15 goals in La Liga looked like he’d never been on a football pitch in his life.

Oh yeah before we signed him for sure. He was probably about the most excited I’ve been about a player coming in in recent years.

His YouTube highlight reel from Malaga is to this day the greatest highlights compilation I’ve ever seen outside of the Messi/Maradona obvious ones.
