It's no biggy really, there was only so much he could do with half the squad away.

That was very interesting. Terry does come across as a top guy to be fair. I wonder who the player was. Maybe El-Ghazi?

Engels would make the most sense based on the description. Maybe Guilbert or even Conor but I reckon it is Engels. Dean manages as I manage, and some call me too soft. But as others say, you can only be true to your own personality and there are different ways to show leadership.

Thanks Dean if the rumours are true about you wanting to buy Davis off us for £4m.

If that is true I'll man-love him even more.

Hilarious if true. Was this what was meant by Dean Smith getting one over 'Stupid' Steven Gerrard and rinsing us of our best players?!

Unlikely to be true. He never played him when he owned, him unless there was literally no-one else

I think those conditions are met at Norwich.

eh? Pukki has 4 goals in 12 games. No-way Davis is ever gonna match those stats even if he doesn't score again this season.

I think it might happen in the summer if they go down. I think Davis would be very good in the championship if he gets a run of games.

Pukki is shite, Davis if he could stay fit is a much better player.

The word 'if' is doing much heavy lifting there, I concede.

He's really not mate. Davis is shite, AND always injured.
