I have said earlier that I have doubts about Zubimendi but will give him the benefit of first season in the new league. However, though some of his tackles are great, his passing is mostly sideways or backwards. He has been guilty of Man U's first goal in the home defeat and for the final, he was ahead of Oreilly when Kepa dropped the ball, he shouldn't have allowed him to score but he was easily brushed aside for a free header.
Hopefully he improves in his physicality for the next season.
Over analysing now that I am pissed to lose the chance of first of the four trophies.

So, Zubimendi was on the right side of the player until Kepa dropped a cross he didn't need to try and catch? Bad example to use, in my opinion.

Hi Eds, Eze has been linked with Man U and Spurs, surely if he is moving then we should be going in for him or is he not a target for us?
{Ed014's Note - Rodrygo is the only winger I’ve seen us linked with so wouldn’t know about Eze.
It would seem strange for him to take a step down and join the Spuds or that Manc 5h1te. ?♂️
1.) 16 Jun 2025 17:07:18
Thanks Ed, same thoughts regarding him taking a step down by going to either. It will be good for us to get one of Rodrygo, Eze or Gordon. Can take a punt on Grealish with loan.
{Ed014's Note - a case of wait and see HB.

Flirt with the prettiest girl at the disco and leave empty handed or with a tramp. Great.
We need to be more strategic and deliver - who cares about the fish we wanted to catch. 3 years later and we are still chasing the dream.
If we win trophies - it would be easier.
03 Jun 2025 09:40:48
Hi Eds, do you know if we have had any serious discussions with our primary targets and their clubs? It is very early days and transfers are complicated process but I am fearing the usual hesitancy in our approach. It will be disheartening if good players are snapped up and we keep faffing around.
{Ed001's Note - yes, I believe you are trying to sort out at least a couple of signings in this initial window. It is a different year for PSR purposes than the second window, so getting them done now will get them off the books earlier in the future.}
1.) 03 Jun 2025 10:32:31
Thanks Ed.
{Ed001's Note - very welcome mate.}
26 May 2025 12:56:31
Hi Eds, do you have any latest on which wingers we are looking at if any? I would have liked Eze or Gordan, but with Palace in Europa and Newcastle in the CL, they look unlikely. We missed out on Marmoush and will have to compete with many clubs for Nico Williams. We need someone who can hit the ground running and preferably with premier league experience.
{Ed001's Note - Rafael Leao and Gittens seem to be the main two targets.}
1.) 26 May 2025 13:36:53
Thanks Ed, Leao is a good player but hasn’t lived up to the hype, Gittens also is one for the future but any additional depth to the squad will be welcome.
2.) 29 May 2025 02:26:39
I would be chuffed with Gittens, 20 y/ o with 8 goals and 3 assists for BvB? Sign me up. Williams would be the premium target but doubt we'd pay the asking price.

It was a foul, not only the arm, Raya’s shirt was being pulled, but we got away with it. It could have gone anyway, this really is a rollercoaster. ?
1.) 10 May 2026 18:50:34
Have a look at the Liverpool page, their bitterness is unparalleled.
2.) 10 May 2026 19:31:10
I can imagine rest of the fans tonight. ??
3.) 10 May 2026 20:01:02
Was just on their page. They are next level bitter! It's some good reading, I can tell you. Apparently the league has all gone to s*** and it's our fault! Gary Neville influences VAR. Arsenal always get away with diving, Sky and the PL want Arsenal to win it, it's all rigged etc etc. ? Love it.
COYG!!
4.) 10 May 2026 20:28:58
Those Scousers on that page are an embarrassment. Not all of them, I know, but there's a few on there that are just so bitter, and their hatred really shines through. It makes it all the more sweet. It was a clear foul. How can you put your arm across the throat of the goalkeeper and grab hold of his arm without that being a foul? Unrivalled bitterness, and we shouldn't concern ourselves with the level of football they have produced this season.
Hopefully, Slot remains for another season! COYG! It's not over yet!
5.) 10 May 2026 22:02:58
Do you think they're still bitter about Anfield 89? ??

Apparently Mikel Arteta's trousers cause offence lol.
10 May 2026 17:47:47
We must sell Zubimendi this summer.
1.) 10 May 2026 18:58:29
Then, play the No 6 you paid 105m for in his best position and stop trying to convert players. Get a mobile upgrade on MLS to partner him and get us going forward.
2.) 10 May 2026 19:29:31
Absolutely, SY, when you have players for every position, why do these adjustments?
10 May 2026 17:13:49
Why would you not get like for like substitution and get Mosquera on for White? We need Rice in the middle?!
1.) 10 May 2026 17:29:34
True, but Mosq really isn't a good rb, he's a bit of a lump rather than a rb. 3 at the back might have been wiser.. it's not working, and the master tactician did zip since seeing we've fallen off the planet after that change.
07 May 2026 21:56:38
Aston Villa playing in Europa League final on 20th May, so they will be tired; if they win, they would have already secured CL for next season and partied hard. In that case, we can’t expect any help from them on the last day. We must win the next three games in the PL. End of.
1.) 08 May 2026 06:29:08
Nothing's changed! Three wins, and we are champions! Flip side to that, Highbury beat West Ham and Palace are safe. They have their final on 27th May, so hopefully have their eyes on that. Exciting times, but let's beat West Ham first, it's massive. COYG.
2.) 08 May 2026 06:32:12
True - I was more worried about West Ham & then Palace away for us. Bournemouth and Everton for them if I'm honest.
It's in our hands.
3.) 08 May 2026 09:25:45
Absolutely Sussex, hope you are all good, mate. 3 wins, it's ours.
Haaland can go and score 10 goals against Villa, won't change a thing.
COYG

There is some discontent towards Mbappe at Real Madrid. We should leverage it and get him in the summer. Thoughts?
1.) 07 May 2026 12:33:20
Wouldn't go near him with a barge pole.
2.) 07 May 2026 13:51:18
26.5 million agree, 1956! Could he do it on a rainy night in Cov? COYG. Leave well alone, I think.
3.) 07 May 2026 16:26:14
I'll take the barge pole.
01 Jul 2025 18:18:41
I think we will get Eze, Rodrygo and Sesko.
16 Jun 2025 17:07:18

There is a rumour around MLS being tracked by Real Madrid. Nwaneri will also be looking for assurances on more game time. However, we must extend their contracts and my be give them an option to review next year.
26 May 2025 13:36:53
Thanks Ed, Leao is a good player but hasn’t lived up to the hype, Gittens also is one for the future but any additional depth to the squad will be welcome.
10 May 2026 22:33:25
Yes, that was a brave decision from the officials, though, correct, it could have gone either way.
Also, someone needs to have a word with Rice on his grappling when defending corners, he has got away with a few and it may cost us.
10 May 2026 19:28:37
Bit harsh that, Ed mate ??
{Ed025's Note - sorry mate i couldn,t resist.. :)
10 May 2026 19:33:33
Come on, Malaga. That's our week's cardio sitting on the sofa! Don't complain. ?
