He's a hefty piece of plant, property and equipment alright.

Are you trying to suggest he's a massive tool?!

The idea of FFP is sound, whether it's executed correctly is another matter. As i've said before, from 2008-20013 a quick Google and 20 clubs from the Conference North/South level upwards went into administration, 12 were league clubs, since 2013 i'm not sure any have. So something is working somewhere.
Are you a time traveller? If so please tell me we have won the FA cup at least once in those 18005 years?

He's been to the year 3,000.  Not much has changed but we live underwater.

So we lower the pitch three feet and now there's going to be a flood? Bloody typical lack of long-term planning.

I regret to say that in the future our hover cyborgs are much older models than everyone else's.

Just watching the West ham highlights

His movement in behind was decent but his hold up play really was terrible, even with balls into feet

The 352 means we can play someone else alongside him to provide that role. But it's only really the out of form Davis, or perhaps RHM to a lesser degree, who offers it

We only need someone doing that if we're playing deep.  Get higher up the pitch and we could have Green playing off him and Grealish looking to join them.  Add some attacking intent from the wing backs and another midfielder and the hold up role becomes 1 touch rather than the 3-4 touches and a battle that has been so common in the last couple of years.  As I've said a few times we have players like Kodjia, Green, Grealish, Adomah and Hourihane who can hurt teams so lets concentrate on getting them up the pitch and doing that rather than worrying about them all the time. The key to doing that is to add pace in the defence so they aren't so easily isolated.

His great-great-great granddaughter is pretty fine, apparently.

Even good attacking teams need someone up front that they can rely on to keep the ball when it's played into them, even just on the deck

Kodjia is an immensely frustrating player a lot of the time

With his ability, he'd have been a top flight player years ago if he was more reliable
