@charleswatts.bsky.social what's the difference in Partey's wage demands?

can we not pay it In a lump sum when he resigns as a signing on bonus instead of breaking the wage structure.

surely the cost of the increase is still less than the cost of buying an equivalently experienced replacement?

@arseblog.com was actually 2022, wonder why he never followed up on it.

don't like trossard starting, he's always a better impact sub , but if he's fit maybe trossard on the left and Martinelli through the middle could work in the absence of Merino??

@arseblog.com is it my imagination or did Arteta last season say Martinelli had the quality to play through the middle??

if so why was yesterday the first time we've seen it?

@charleswatts.bsky.social don't disagree with your Odergaard views but there's an argument that the top level players pull teams through in periods of difficulty.

Odergaard's stats when the right players aren't around him seem to dip

Still think he's class but needs to find another level for me

@arseblog.com @gunnerblog.bsky.social I had never thought of using it either, I now feel sensically able to do so 🤣

@charleswatts.bsky.social nervous about Tuesday. Every time I convince myself we did it with Senderos last time , we'll be ok , I remember they had Thomas Gravesen in midfield.

glad Timber and White are fit and Kiwior seems to get better with regular game time. just need a solid first leg 🤞

@clivepafc.bsky.social this pitch is awful against Real Madrid

@charleswatts.bsky.social am I wrong to be ok with this. I've let go of the title but want to maintain champions league qualification.

Forest have been scoring well, especially at home. if they had scored we would never have pulled it back.

I'm just looking to get to the interlull unscathed tbf

@charleswatts.bsky.social is the Mudryk thing genuine or a cunning way to get an 8 year contract gone and free up psr money.
