It's probably better for us if he doesnt go. Can get some rest.

But just on principle, I've no interest in watching if a guy from an amateur league gets the nod over someone who's smashed it in the toughest league in the world.

And there it is. Tuchel is a fuckin idiot.

The Saudi league is currently ranked below the USA and Mexican Leagues. Ivan Toney hasn't played anything even resembling top level football for over 2 years.

Aye, a guy who betted on his own team to lose on 13 occasions. Scumbag.

Might aswel bring Mason Greenwood back into the fold, add sexual violence to the squad composition.

So that's Hull, Ipswich and Coventry promoted.

The holy trinity of dog shit. We'll be safe by September.

Dunno, they were shite last time, finished on 22 points, and that was with the likes of Omari Hutchinson and an in-form Delap.

I guess it depends on signings. For any of those 3 to stay up it would take one hell of a window. Sunderland had loads of money to spend (after huge profit on Watson and Bellingham) and we somehow ended up with loads of bargains. If someone wanted to sign Stach, DCL and Gudmundsson now it would cost around £100m. Plus players like Ampadu, Bogle etc. really stepped up.

Can see next season reverting back to the norm with 3 whipping boys propping up the table.
