The Premier League 2025/26
Leeds aren’t a good team but they are playing to their strengths and they deliberately bought in a load of giants in the summer. I accept DCL doing much better then I expected but would he be as effective in our team? I doubt it.

As for West Ham, they have a decent squad but Nuno looks half the manager without his backroom team. People also forget how much he struggled to turn us around in his first season, in all honesty he didn’t really turn us around our ppg barely improved.

We should finish above both but we need to accept we are in a battle and be up for it.

It might not do us any favours but Id love to see Nuno get sacked. I hold him responsible for the disaster that our season has turned into. Imo the mess he left after his outbursts has overridden all the admiration I had for him after the good stuff of last season.

I want Nuno sacked after losing to us, not before. I want to chant “you’re getting sacked in the morning” as we’re beating them 2 or 3 nil.

Are the fixtures catching up with Palace? They don’t have the depth to rotate like we do, but we have to use it else…

Its absolutely criminal the way they failed to back Glasner in the summer. If they weren't so consumed by their battle with us maybe they'd have a few more players in now.

Yep, madness. The time to strengthen is from a position of strength, when you are more attractive to players. The one time in over 100 years of history they qualify for Europe and they sat on their hands. While our owner had the brains and balls to invest.

Just shows that they have a small club mentality. They've been in the prem 12 years now fgs.

I see that Mendes found his mate Nuno a new Striker for West Ham.

Didnt see Maresca coming. Had the timings worked out I would have had him here.

No way Forest fans would like his football though.

I stopped watching Chelsea because their football was like watching paint dry. Then I started again because their joke of a disciplinary record at least meant there was some ‘action’. So yeah, I realize he won the club World Cup and is linked with Man City, but they can have him.

How difficult can coaching be that we need these whizz kids from Spain and Portugal to tell people to pass it sideways as opposed to booting 50 crosses in the box? Massively overpaid job for something essentially quite simple.
