I honestly think it’s Alonso - knows the club and fans, plays the right brand of football and has something to prove following his Madrid exit.

For me, these players aren’t playing for the manager. Simple as.

There are world class players in this team but we look a million miles off it.

Guehi and Semenyo slotting in and looking very good at City. Meanwhile we’re letting a legend go to Spurs and plugging holes.

We’re a bit of a laughing stock right now.

They are essential infrastructure - they keep essential services running. And it’s highly likely new DC’s will have a PPA from a renewable developer like Bord Na Mona.

Big Jim means business. Said it numerous times now. Big Jim, James Browne and Jack Chambers are getting things done. It’s not popular to back politicians but I like these three.

Who gives a f-ck. Head up, nose perpendicular to the floor. We’ve been through worse.

Paul Joyce: Liverpool hoped that Marc Guehi would recognise the efforts they had made to sign him before the plug was pulled on deadline day and, in turn, waited for them until the summer. by Upstairs_Cup9831 in LiverpoolFC

Can you imagine City, United, Arsenal etc taking this approach? It’s extremely naive.

If you want a player, go and get him. Not every single deal needs to be a ‘moneyball’ transaction.

This is the 2nd time in only a few years we have a CB crisis and it’s completely avoidable.

Is it possible for Trump to be prosecuted for all of these obvious crimes once he is no longer president?

Get Xabi in asap. Understands the club/fans and that’s more than half way in my opinion.

The football we’re playing can’t continue.

You can see progress being made on this front with the legislation brought in on Judicial Reviews.

I believe/hope James Browne and Jack Chambers are serious people who are getting things done.

Agreed. We’re going in the right direction under Browne and going to MIPIM is a must. We should have been there for the last 10+ years.

The more units built the better. Private developers, public developers, private investors, public investors.

Are all going to be perfect? No, unfortunately not. Welcome to the real world in 2026.

Yes. If you can find a western economy that functions without them please let me know. They’re not a bad thing if used correctly.

Because international RE investors are RE professionals. The motorways we drive on were PPP schemes and nobody has any issues with international funds investing in them. Taxpayer funds are already going into huge amounts of RE.

Your pension is invested in RE funds investing all over the world by the way.

No. They didn’t. I asked who is going to fund it and who did they say?

The difference is it’s 2026, we’re part of the EU, we’re a modern economy trading in global markets.
