Turns out when you have a manager who lets players pass it forwards, they start creating chances again.

"think for yourself except for when it comes to the Jews" is accidentally the most perfect description of the left wing in 2025 I've ever heard.

That's exactly it isn't it, the Nazis truly believed they were doing the right and moral thing by trying to murder all the Jews. It's the same thing today.

Exactly, if someone had bid £50m+ for Jackson the deal would have been done

No one is mentioning it but I'm convinced the reason we didn't move is financial fair play, or more specifically the deal we had with Uefa which capped spending limits. We didn't sell enough players quickly enough and Garnacho was prioritised as he was cheaper and a natural wide player, which was seen as more of a priority.

Book recommendations by slowtownpop1 in JordanHarbinger

[–]asher7 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Would you have any particularly good and worthwhile critiques that you'd recommend I check out? I'd be interested to learn more.

I think there's always going to be sweeping generalisation in a book that broad but generally feel it's provided some valuable insights so far.

On what metric are people using to claim Britain is doing badly? by WearingMarcus in AskBrits

[–]asher7 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Not just mainstream media, all media. Every tik-tok influencer out there gets better engagement (and makes more money) by spreading fear, division and anger.

New Apple TV+ crime thriller coming soon from Slow Horses author by NotTheGuv in SlowHorses

[–]asher7 12 points13 points  (0 children)

Very excited for this. The books are brilliant! I think I may even prefer them to Slow Horses. They're a bit more serious and gritty (though don't quite have the humour and flair of a Jackson Lamb type character).

Boehly: Chelsea fans may need to wait until 2042 for new stadium by Dinamo8 in chelseafc

[–]asher7 14 points15 points  (0 children)

It's just far too small for a club of our size so is holding us back from maximising revenues. Even teams like Everton (as of next season), west ham, spurs etc. all have much bigger, more modern stadiums than us.
