By Willkiller Go To PostWe’re signing DCL
I’ve suspected we’d go for him for a while, and I’ve really feared it. Felt like the time for it had passed though.
I don’t fucking like it one bit.
Decent back up
By n8 dogg Go To PostDecent back upHe’s just not good at scoring goals though. You can make an argument his fitness issues are, in part, down to poor management. Being rushed back etc.
But he’s only ever really had one extended period where his finishing was to a high standard.
I like aspects of his game, and we do lack a target man. But it’s going to be a clear downgrade from Wilson in terms of output. If we make that up with a good RW signing then…fine.
By n8 dogg Go To PostDecent back upIsak replacement
I would imagine DCL to Newcastle now means Manchester club looks at different CB targets. No need for Everton to sell Branthwaite if they're raising money from other sales.
Same because I really liked the look of him. We're desperate for a fast CB. We keep talking about best practice and having a system in place that allows for us to move on quickly to the next target in line. Need to see this in practice.

Who’s coming to score gols
By Plasma Go To PostAre Newcastle/Everton/Chelsea/Villa just shifting players around to avoid PSR.Not exactly. Not for us anyway.
DCL has been a long term target for us (for some reason), Wilson will be sold mostly for PSR reasons but it also feels like a good time to move him on anyway with his injury issues. You'll see a decent amount of business from clubs with PSR concerns before the start of July for obvious reasons.
Everybody looking forward to the Georgia vs Czech Republic juggernaut game?

The vast majority of games in this Euros have been very entertaining. The worst games have included the big boys (England/France/Netherlands).
So yeah, I am looking forward to it. Georgia's first game was arguably the game of the tournament so far.
By Perfect Blue Go To PostIt’ll be better than the France and Holland game.I don't know, I liked it.

Strictly following the rulebook (as we should really) the goal should have been disallowed yesterday. My main gripe is that it just doesn't happen consistently. Wouldn't even be surprised if we'd have a similar situation in the same tournament where the goal will stand.
The match itself was probably rather boring for those not invested in either country. I think NL performed decent given the current squad. Don't really get the fierce criticism from the lads in the studio. We played a team that is very likely to be among the top 3 squads in the tournament and we never really looked out of place. Unable to really make an impact forward most of the game. Some narrow escapes in the back but it's been solid for most of the game. All in all a good result to have 4 points out of the first two games. Should be enough to go through.

By rossonero Go To PostEverybody looking forward to the Georgia vs Czech Republic juggernaut game?Did you not like the Turkey-Georgia game?
I hate this extended Euro…
By bud Go To Post2033One of the players is eventually going to pull a Winston Bogarde and this madness will end.
By Perfect Blue Go To Post
Very inconsistent in FM he’s not going to make it in the PL imo
By Plasma Go To PostYeah probably not, the Villa/Chelsea transfers do look a bit strange though.Villa and Everton have some weird swap of youngsters going on as well
By rossonero Go To PostI don't know, I liked it.Turkey X Georgia is on the top 3 of the best games of the tournament and I've watched them all besides France X Austria.
I'll trust your opinion on it, missed the first Georgia game.
Day 9 starts in 6 minutes.
By FortuneFaded Go To PostDid you not like the Turkey-Georgia game?Fine, I'll watch the game.
By Perfect Blue Go To PostIt’ll be better than the France and Holland game.First half was one of the best international matches I've ever seen
Hitzlsperger’s accent is incredible
His form looked like shit
By Hixx Go To PostYou're not gonna believe this. He killed 10 million Czechs. The guy was a penalty taker.
His form looked like shit
By n8 dogg Go To PostHitzlsperger’s accent is incrediblyHe had no need to publicly announce he was gay, he just had to do a post-match interview.
