Gordon will at least be nice and fresh for us, or Liverpool <run> <roll>

Good for football as Spain were just about the only lot that actually contributed something resembling attractive and skilful football. Natural ball players in a fabulous system.
A Dire Euros in general but a worthy winner.

Over the top punditry as per usual from tbe usual suspects and the it’s coming home cliches roll on until the next release of this media driven garbage.

England should not have been anywhere near the final, not because of the players inadequacy but the ridiculous restraint and containment that the management have these players trying to deploy.

Result ….

The same old song and dance routine.

Playing like that in the final was sensible, playing that negative against Denmark was unforgivable

I hope that's in jest. Because if we sell Gordon I'm done with this club.

I don't think we will move Gordon on, but I'm confident that if any of the bigger players do get sold then we will have a boat load of money that will definitely get reinvested.

Haha yes!

I think Gordon, Isak and Bruno stay this summer.

Next summer I think one of them is nailed to leave.

If I had to choose. It would be Bruno. He's a bit of a luxury player imo.

Much as we all love him, same.

It’s much harder to replace goals.

Also easier to replace a central midfielder as you can spread the duties across 3 players

I see Merino is linked with Arsenal, class player. Think he was a Rafa signing.

He was a Rafa signing and sale (leveraging an affordable release clause).
