Also Your Party needs MPs and will also require a few to defect from Labour. A Green, Your Party coalition is something we have to strive for.

I'm all for the 3pm blackout window being abolished; however, there has to be a way that a lot of that extra revenue trickles down through the leagues. Unfortunately I don't think that will happen.

Good to know there are still some good guys out there. It's getting bleak.

Forgive me for my naivety, but doesn't xG overperformance need to be tracked over a 3 season period to really qualify?

The Kudus fee is concerning.
I think Gittens for just a tad over the price of Sancho is exciting. He suits the system a lot more and has that acceleration to get separation.

I think it's the case of Gittens or Garnacho, not both.
I really don't want Garnacho, more for his off the field stuff.
I don't like Kudus either; it seems rather pointless, just keep Noni. I much prefer Morgan Rogers, someone who can play LW and provide cover for Palmer.

Cross-claiming ability is a concern. I think the save stoppage % is a bit skewed.

I couldn't agree more about Sesko. That transfer terrifies me. He has some great attributes, like heading and elite ball striking, but I think he lacks any fundamentals to actually use them consistently.

I agree, I wonder if Ekitike is an option for LW/LF. His Dribbling is his best attribute.
I like Nico, but I can see the desire to sell him for 50/60mil and bring in Delap.
My preference is Osimhen. Most plug and play striker available and a profile we lack. (Mateta is my 2nd option)

I have always had the opinion it should be 1 referral per team, and upon successful review you keep your referral.

I'm not excited about this, but there is a scenario where this works. But he is on massive wages and I can't imagine we'll get him on a discount. Feels very risky, especially as I see him as an impact sub rather than a starter.

Yeah, these Bozo moments are too much. He is literally insane at stopping crosses and he goes and does that, way too casual.

I got my first in November after 15 years of pondering, and now I ponder why I didn't get one sooner. I have so many plans for more.

I didn't think so; Josh wasn't at fault for that great goal, but he had been sloppy in possession, and the game was getting too big for him. He needs to learn from it. My only criticism of Marseca is bringing on those attacking subs a bit too late.
