Apparently Mings was one of our best players and his aerial height was vital. Obviously injuries aren't helping but our form is not good, both Man U and Chelsea are looking as they will catch us sooner than later. We need to deal with what we have and get on with it.
Wednesday is vital we stop the rot or Europe could become a problem. I see Bailey was woeful and gave the ball away far to often, obviously got to give him time but he was singled out in the press as our worst player, appreciate he came off the bench but hope we didn't get Bailey MK2.

It's amazing how quickly things change. A month ago we were 9-10 points clear now after 1 point from 9 the lead has pretty much gone and we still have the likes of City, Liverpool, Utd and Chelsea to play and Utd and Chelsea are putting a run together.
Whereas before I thought we might have qualified for CL with games to spare now I think it's going to go down to the wire. Wrong time to have a wobble.

Got the draw, beautiful goal by Rogers . The Brazilian kid of theirs, took his goal well, but aided and abetted by Digna playing statues . Onana was brilliant, lost count of the headers he won, amazed he got the 90 mins . Sancho played some nice stuff first half, but second half we had a lot of players looking very leggy . You may as well of played my Mrs, for Bailey, every 50-50 he lost, just no commitment.
Ollie time and again, just doesn't attack any balls put across the box, surprised that Tammy didn't get on earlier. Got to give it them, the amount of pressure they put on us . But in saying that, we helped second half, by not putting two passes together .
At least we never lost, back on track for a top four . UTV

I think Mings has to take some responsibility for it aswel he gave him 2 much space to shoot, he does give better support to Martinez for corners and set piece into the box but defending in open play he’s not good enough for the PL.
feel sorry for Lindelof he was playing better than both Mings and Torres when he lost his place. it’s going to be a long few weeks waiting for tielemans to come back. missed maginn tenacity big time aswel

Tomorrow is the time to reverse the disappointing performances of late, Ollie is apparently fit and starts, Onana is reportedly ok as well, so we need to show the teams around us that we are not easy to play against and that's definitely not the case.
I have a ticket for tomorrow's game and off up the A34 in the morning, I'm hoping for something positive and a strong performance, another defeat would show our competing teams that we are not up for the fight.

Good post scotty I have to agree, time to roll up our sleeves. on the plus side Bournemouth at home will come at us so hopefully leave some space to get in behind them

Champions league is still very much in our own hands. 2 disappointing home results should not take away from where we are at the moment, realistically 7 wins from 14 games with a couple of draws should be enough. We are getting one or 2 injured players back now with others in a few more weeks.
Still fighting on 3 fronts so plenty to be excited about and a win Saturday puts us firmly in control over Liverpool who Have a tricky game against city and could find themselves 10 points behind at ko.
I'm still not convinced Chelsea will overtake us and I'm expecting them to start dropping points again after the new manager bounce
Let's take some positivity into the tail end of the season as still plenty to play for . UTV

We need to move from Sunday's result and realise we aren't going to beat every team on the league week in week out, over the full 90 plus minutes it was forward against defence I know we had a man advantage,
Tammy, Dougie, Bailey are only getting up to speed just in the door a week 3 games in a week didn't help either.
When we get everybody fit this now is a serious squad, if that lads can hold in there for the next week's and when McGinn, Kamara Youri Watkins are back we will get champions league at ease we just to keep the gap from untied, Liverpool,
Imagine been able to hold on to this squad for next season, we nearly have two good players for every position.
Keep the heads up keep singing and cheering the lads on keep the faith and keep dreaming because this season will be something to remember.

Wilson of Hearts loan back with buy from 8 million

Rumour from guys I meet before the game were saying that Emery will wait to see if we're in CL before deciding on next move.
Sort of makes sense and the rumour about Madrid seems to be very much part of his decision.

Funnily enough Trinity I’ve heard much the same thing. Apparently whatever we achieve be it qualification for CL winning the Europa League we are still going to be in difficulty financially and dependent on our level of success we will have to sell 2 maybe 3 current first teamers. In terms of incomings we will look at free transfers and players from abroad as the salary demands aren’t as great as established PL players. I was told we have offered contracts to 2 Bundesliga players and 1 La Liga who are free in the summer no names were mentioned and apparently the players concerned are keeping options open before committing to anyone.
As a consequence Emery is frustrated however the board have drawn up a list of potential replacements should Unai leave. I accept this is purely speculation and obviously time will tell whether any of this is accurate or not but you could understand if what was shared contains a grain of truth.

guessand off to crystal palace for around 30m, does this mean we get jpm or would you take a swap?
29 Jan 2026 15:24:58
Re: Guessand, signing him has to go down as one of the worst pieces of business we've done in recent times.
Not sure about JPM to be honest, really not sure.
This has been one difficult transfer window.
29 Jan 2026 16:10:33
If we get £30M for Guessand then this window would be ‘if Carlsberg did transfer windows’ for me 🤷🏼♂️

72, we can dream.
Think it’s a loan unfortunately.
29 Jan 2026 11:50:37
Apparently Real Madrid have spoken to Emery's agent about taking over come the summer!. Hope this isn't true I would rather we lose Rogers than Emery.
29 Jan 2026 15:34:57
Yes, read that earlier. It shouldn't be a surprise that he's linked to top jobs in Europe as he's one of the best in Europe.
Be gutted if he left. Fingers crossed it comes to nothing and is idle media gossip.
One thing is for sure, he wouldn't have PSR concerns there.
29 Jan 2026 19:57:44
It’s been said about Emery that he struggled at PSG because of the egos of the big players, would be the same at Real because it pretty much sounded like the players bombed the Lat guy out 🤷🏼♂️
