Well it’s not that simple, this originated from a French journalist who has a very good reputation and the Lille president confirmed their interest in him, adding weight to the journalists claim that personal terms had been agreed. There are also Alfredo’s own comments and Gerrard’s interview today. Based on those facts, not what our press have said, I believe he wants out and I don’t blame him. It is in that context that I want a swift conclusion to the matter. Edited August 1, 2020 by DMAA 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Posted that in my #125 and had not heard SG's statement so glad my thoughts were correct. 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Whosthedado 1,680 Posted August 1, 2020 Share Posted August 1, 2020 Kind of annoyed me we can make five subs and only used one. We were quite comfortable and the only threat they had was set pieces. Far too pedestrian at times but i guess first game so I can understand to a degree 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Surely if we are comfortable there isn’t a great need to use subs ? The use of subs can have a negative impact rather than positive - so if we were comfortable why change something that is already working ? as someone said, McGregor had a very quiet day - so why change the personnel if our keeper isn’t being troubled and we are already 1-0 up ? 4 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Probably me Craig that said it! I don't know I just think it gives players a bit of incentive if they aren't playing too to think well I might get on at least. The likes of Edmondson must be a bit p'd off. Although as you have said obviously I wouldn't have changed the cb pairing 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
the gunslinger 3,366 Posted August 1, 2020 Share Posted August 1, 2020 Subs are for teams that want to change the result 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
CammyF 8,079 Posted August 1, 2020 Share Posted August 1, 2020 SG made the one change that was necessary. Bringing on Arfield was the right move at right time. No point in making changes for changes sake. 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Can you remember the game against I think it was Motherwell , we made a substitution late in the game and ended up losing a goal , the online support went nuts . I am only in favour of subs if we are , chasing the game , need to replace an injured or knackered player or have to change because we are really losing our way , not when we are strolling a game but only winning 1 nil , it’s nuts the reaction to today , a bit like the reaction to a strip not arriving prior to 9 am and the delivery guy didn’t make the breakfast as well . 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
