I just find that all that fucking funny but not strengthening another relegation competitor with little upside to it.

At worst give him a bollocking, fine a weeks wage and sit a game or two out if his ego/feelings been that badly bruised but even that I think is too strong simply for playfully calling him a slaphead. 

When did he make us worse? He even returned for almost half a season to contribute more in the League than Summverville did last season. The same Ward-Prowse who instantly contributed to his new Forest teams efforts in beating the runaway League winners Liverpool at Anfield against all the odds as a new player before he allegedly called the crackhead a slaphead.
Over react, what like you have to a ridiculous rumour. 
 
I can't believe we struggled so much last season and this with the genius that is JWP in the team

Nah not yet. Sullivans still scanning the south American market for another attacking forward in the 9th division of the Peruvian football pyramid.

How would a player that made us worse when playing for us improve Burnley to overtake us? 

Nope he wouldn't

Oh and you actually think it's because he called him a baldie..

Burnley want Ward-Prowse loan

Latest from Sky Sports News' Dharmesh Sheth and Chris Reidy:

Burnley want to sign West Ham midfielder James Ward-Prowse on loan until the end of the season. 

They have explored the conditions of a potential deal for the 31-year-old. 

Ward-Prowse is not in West Ham’s plans and has been told he can leave.  His contract runs until the summer of 2027.


No doubt Sulleconomics will seriously consider the short term pound signs involving a loan fee instantly rolling in even at the expense of our survival. 🤑


 
 
 
I would let them have him he's fucking shit and frees up money for us to sign someone. I can't believe anyone after watching him play for us thinks he could be the key to Burnley staying up.

To be honest, whilst I know where you're coming from, if we have to worry about Burnley catching us we're 100% down.

If it means they have a better chance of taking points off the only teams we're remotely capable of catching then I don't see the problem. Whatever happens we have to win up there and he wouldn't be able to play anyway

Nothing more boring than talking about fucking goalkeepers. Zero chance that Summerville leaves.

Suspect it will be the usual end of window rush (depending on the Sunderland result).

Sounds like bs, not sure Spurs would want him, and why would we sell him for what we paid if his stature as a Prem player has grown to point where Spurs want him?



 
He's been very decent for us in his last two matches but up until now his stature as a Prem player has been about as dynamic as a tree stump. He spent most of his first season injured and when he has played granted he looks busy but has rarely shown any end product. He made his name as an extremely prolific forward in his one good season at Leeds and in the championship to boot.

What you posted makes no sense whatsoever! 😩

Nuno likes Kinsky. Frank likes Hermansen. 

Weird.

Stick. Didn't think much of Kinsky when playing for Spurs last seasons so if anything a much of a muchness and pointless exercise. Concentrate on other positions before faffing around with our back up Keeper.

It sounds an absolutely mental way to use up our second PL loan. To swap backup goalkeepers Surely surely surely use it on a player who might actually play at CB or winger. This will be the most spastic use of the two loans allowed ever. Two shitty backups who don't even play. I don't understand it at all.

Actually I think a new keeper is important assuming he is an upgrade on what we have. Part of why we are so bad at corners is that Areola is rooted to his line and our defenders have to clear it constantly. 
Absolutely. Areola is a liability.

I actually thought Hermanson did well against QPR. Was hoping he'd get another go.
I doubt he'll be replacing Areola, he'll probably be coming in to ensure that if Areola got injured we wouldn't have to rely on the fucking useless Hermansen. I'm all for it as long as this new one is a big cսnt and can catch.

Yes but we are not in the market for a great centre back, just a serviceable one. All they have to be is better than Mav and Kilman which let's be honest is not hard to find. Yes probably signing someone in our predicament does make it harder, but I don't believe we cannot get someone better than what we have on a loan or short term deal  Despite the fact Sullivan managed to fail in summer with the utterly pointless loan of Igor who was just a total waste of time. If that's the best he can come up with through his means then I'm not surprised Nuno is telling him to fuck off.
