Unfortunately it’s true. More around a commitment from the club to keep a playing squad that is able to compete at level he believes he deserves to perform at. He is not alone in seeking assurances. Mostly it is b******s but it is a point in contract negotiations at high performing clubs.

That’s not true. I understand he asked to be considered if/when available as well as a commitment to spend on squad strengthening and a lot of talk over image rights as he has spread his wings more into fashion etc. The noise has been all one way, and yes he could end it by signing, but the talks are on going.

If Grav gets a yellow in this game, he misses United.

Agree. It’s just something fir the trollers to hang their hats on.

The latest I heard (pre Girona) was that this is the hardest of the three to negotiate. Various requests and guarantees sought and a lot of back and forth as you’d expect. Money is not the main driver here. Other two seem close and almost done then something crops up. Clear as mud.

I would but if not and we are looking elsewhere

Didn’t Endo play rb for Stuggart at times? It would, hopefully be better than what we had last night. Quansah , not helped by Gomez in any way, looked like a fish out of water.

Arsenal heads will make Real Madrid’s injuries about the unfairness of the season in relation to Arsenal. Strange crowd.

I read this as: All right, but apart from the sanitation, the medicine, education, wine, public order, irrigation, roads, a fresh water system, and public health, what have the Romans ever done for us?

The way things are going, we’ll end up with Pablo Escovar reffing us next.

So now the media narrative is: Coote - stitched up, under pressure, good bloke. Us - cause and victims simultaneously

In recalling the guy who sat behind me in the Main Stand for a season, it was pronounced: ”f*** off Alonso, put your foot in!”. Every game. T shirt or coat; night or day. Ah! Salad days.

Get Ironside here! (Not one for the kids).

Whereas Mr. Brad Jones actually dived in the opposite direction to avoid contact. An interesting approach to goalkeeping that, for the main, is still to take root.

Alright Steve Maclaten!
