To say I’m angry and disappointed is an understatement. Yes he was good for us years ago and is experienced now but I thought it was a joke when we were reported as interested

Angry and disappointed? Seriously? What's he done for that feeling?

Welcome home Ash

Hope his return is better than that announcement. It was like watching TOTP circa 1990 on BBC 4.

Won the Scudetto by winning the trust of famously lax and sentimental manager Antonio Conte.

Happy with this, experienced squad player who knows the club and adds a winning mentality in the dressing room.

As an aside i think this summer is going to be really exciting, I can see a lot of opposition fans being shocked by our business.

Smart signing.
Guilbert and Kesler much smarter cover, Konsa can play right back and Hause can play left back so plenty of cover. Youngs wages would be better spent elsewhere. I also dont forget his 'contact' with Cieran Clark to win a penalty for utd😡

Kesler will be better off going and getting regular first team football and then he can be a genuine option. They clearly don't rate Guilbert.

I agree about Konsa as an option at right back though. I would sell Engels and get that Fulham centre back who's highly rated and then Konsa can fill in at right back without us losing anything in the centre.

Blimey it’s weird to decide you can’t stand a player for one incident with Manure, rather than remember all the brilliance for us.

Ollie will have a permanent hard on thinking he’s going to get 40 goals next season with the quality of his supply line..

There were always a weird section of our support that never gave him much credit when he was here. Easily one of our best players of the last thirty years.

Everton away, Small Heath 5-1, long awaited Old Trafford win. Some great memories.

He's the same age as me but how the fuck does he still look so young?

Must be something to do with his surname......
