Comment #7What do posters think about Stevie Gerrard as manager of Rangers? I’d like to see him do well but for some reason the best players don’t usually make the best managers!

Fat Sam was asked at the Everton presser
about the Gerard appointment and he was
quite cynical but with an undercurrent of jealousy

Comment #9I think having Gary McAllister as his number 2 will be vital

And he’s been elected as a Conservative party candidate for…… Sunderland – the post apocalyptic shithole.

Comment #11Re Gerrard, if he fails then he’ll have thrown away his managerial expectations, on the other hand if he succeeds to just being able to close the gap on celtic, he’ll be seen as a huge success.
Expect a lot of EPL loan signings.

Comment #14“The Twitter posts included describing Sunderland as a “post-apocalyptic ****hole” and Labour MP Diane Abbott as a “filthy, bulbous pig”.”
This is surreal:
“It adds a Local and Area Conservative Party Management investigation concluded there was no evidence to support claims, adding his tweets “may not have been to everyone’s taste” and “there was never any intention to offend or cause hurt”.”

Comment #17Bingo
Dubravka
Yedlin Lascelles Lejeune Dummett
MoJo
Ritchie Perez Kenedy
Gayle
I would go for murphy on the right wing to counter attack with pace (and he did some decent tracking back when he came on the other day) but Rafa will pick Ritchie, as he always does.

Comment #25For a development player who wasn’t supposed to be making many starts this season (and didn’t) he did alright after a bit of a rude awakening in the pl. The longer he played the better his ratings in a game, nice goal against man city too. For a relatively inexpensive development talent it’s pretty shocking he can be used as a reason we didn’t get a top of the line striker. The logic is astoundingly poor.

Comment #26Murphy has done a job for us and is one for the future. I think the club needed to move a few more out to afford a really decent striker. Either one of Mitro or Gayle along with Colback and Saivet for example. We couldn’t, which happens, and we were also caught a little by surprise by the increase in transfer fees being quoted, so Rafa asked Ashley for help which wasn’t forthcoming, he stuck to his wipe your own nose stuff, and we ended up with Joselu. I wouldn’t say Rafa was “hoodwinked”, just that he wasn’t backed with the owner’s money, when he felt circumstances warranted, even needed it.

Comment #27Watching Hoots’ lads against Manure hoping they can beat them.
Nice to not need them to lose to help our survival etc.
Remote control very nearby to turn in disgust at a typical Boreinho fluke goal though…

Comment #28Nicky…they could have bought a forward for the future for that money…
…they could have done like Ajax, Lyon, Roma or most big clubs in lesser leagues…
They could easily have founded a forward and even one that would make a difference…buying Joselu was a bit of a joke really!
Only a few defend that signing and even Murphy these days

Comment #29Rafa had some tough decisions to make regarding the shape of the team that could endure a season back in the pl, and he chose wisely. Being lumbered with the strike personnel we had from previous years did not help. One was and still is a championship grade striker. Another was a powder keg who failed to make an impact in either league until he was finally loaned out then strangely decided to wake up. Nothing to do with getting a sale price or the world cup no can’t be that. The purchase of Joselu was a decent punt seeing as he basically filled a hole and did a job of running and passing but certainly not the striker we sorely needed, but evidently we didn’t have enough nectar points for a proper one. And Slimani might not have made the impact we would have liked but his small contributions and even his competitive presence probably justified whatever his loan wages were. When you’re forced to wade around in the market bargain boxes it’s always going to be hit and mostly miss. How anyone misses the point that Benitez was basically given Two Bob to buy a car I don’t know. 🙂

Comment #30Hearing Manure are playing a “weakened side” god love them!!!!
£56m Martial
£40m Mata
£25m Fellaini
£18m Rojo
£16.5m Darmian
How do they cope . . . . . .

Comment #31There’s nothing to defend about the signings of Joselu and Murphy. They were both cheap and bought for a purpose. Joselu was throwaway money hardly wasted as we couldn’t buy anything else for that. And when and if Murphy comes good and is worth two or three times his current price those who whine about the lad will look like the prats they are.

Comment #33We needed one for now, not one for the future, it was late in the window and Joselu was the best we could manage under the circumstances. Neither a good nor bad signing, simply a necessary one.

Comment #34Had Rafa not been so naive and inexperienced he could have bought Lucas Perez with the 12M by persuading Ashley sell on value wasn’t important, he could have also explained to Mr or Señor Perez that the 40K a week shortfall in wages was well worth dropping to move up North.

Comment #39Jesper much as I don’t really want to get into this debate with you but it seems you have a purpose rather than an argument. Would you say the summer budget was sufficient for a highly solvent club of this size to ensure premier league status beyond doubt? Let’s start with that shall we?
