Ryan Gravenberch

[Buzzo]

Should have brought Bajcetic back in Jan in my opinion. He didn't exactly rip it up for Red Bull but he is probably a better option than OConnell

Hopefully he gets a break in March that is needed and can have one big push then for the run in. Big pity that we didn't hang on against Newcastle and Everton in the league games as those 4 extra points would be huge. Fingers crossed we win the league with a few games to spare and we can take it easy towards the end of the league campaign but it's just as likely that we will be flogged to death between now and the end of April and end up missing out on the big cups

It’s mad that we’ve got 5 league games in 15 days and 1 in March.

Villa have the same they requested postponement of our game with them and had it rejected.

We have to get through this run with as many points on the board, consolidate fitness in March and then push for the finish. The truth is we need our best players fit and firing, we need to be ramping up not easing off. The good thing is that Slot and his team seem to be very good at managing player conditioning, which will be far more detailed than the eyeball test we provide.

Performance will be affected by nerves now also. The good thing is we can still pick up W’s without playing well. That’s crucial.

Isn't this the game we were due to be playing the weekend of the carabao cup final? Who decided it should be played this week? Presumably the clubs have a say in that, which is why I find it odd.

I bet it’s the TV executives that made the decision

It is. Unusual for a game to be brought forwards.

I think the clubs can request the change, but it needs to be signed off which it wasn’t not sure if we also requested it to be moved. If we win the game in hand it’s good times. If we lose it’s the narrative the press are desperate for and it becomes more of a battle.

Good lad Ryan, get back home and rest up

[S-RED]

Koman is a red hahahaha

[Exiled_red]

It'd be such a shame if a few more of our key players had to pull out of international games...

Very much needed

[peterbread]

The club seems to have better relationships with some international teams right now.

Koeman has done this a couple times with VVD as well as Ryan previously. Plus didn’t Mo get some time off earlier in the season.

Agents suck

[BigChief]

Real definitely need another midfielder. £200m should about do it. Not a lot of money really.

[Norbs]

Agents suck

Bellendingham plus £50m would do it

Nah, straight swap for Camavinga, Valverde and, if we can get him and Szobo to play nice, Arda Gulern.


Would even sweeten the pot by letting them sign TAA in June rather than getting him in July.

[Kenneth]

Camavinga is the most over rated player in world football imo.
