Just catching up...is Bacuna injured or dropped ?

Fired out of a canon and last seen heading towards the Jupiter Space Probe, Juno.  Hopefully.

Dave to which point?  Mine is his self belief that he could comfortably play in the European Cup (Champions league)

What was wrong with that? He said it was something he wanted to do at some point. It was a bit of a ridiculous stick to beat him with.

Ah I didnt realise GAK played in the amateur leagues. The scoreline makes a bit more sense now.

He answered somebody's question that if he were to return home and PSV or Ajax wanted to sign him then yes, he would be happy to play for them.

And that was about the extent of his delusions.

He's a pretty lousy player, but all this "wanting to play in the Champions League" bullshit is a complete non-story.

I'd be more concerned if we had players that accepted the best they'll ever be is mid table  or lower in the PL. I want players that have the ambition and self belief to play at the highest level.

As for GAK, they play in level 6 of the Austrian league, Bromsgrove could probably give them a shoeing. Handy game though to ease players back in, especially Stan.

It's the Austrian Blind league - that's why we are doing so well. But maybe if we play well with a bell in the ball it might be worth bringing one home - just in case we have to play Guzan again.
