We are delighted to announce that Declan Rice has signed a new long-term contract until summer 2024, with a further one year option for the Club to extend.https://www.whufc.com/news/artic

This lad seems a very good prospect. Watched the Southampton game and he was so calm and composed in different situations. Looked him up and he is only 19...
 
Bit of a heavy claim that mate, give him at least a full season (I'd argue 2, but one bare minimum) at a club with *his* team before drawing any definitive conclusions like that. Few months at Hull, few months at Watford, few months at Everton - he needs time & patience, a few months is the equivalent of 5 minutes when you're trying to instill your identity into a football club, never mind trying to integrate new signings and lack 1 or 2 profiles required, which I think he'll suss out this season. Thought the Watford sacking was one of the most ridiculous I've seen in recent times, I'd say only Ranieri tops it the last 5 years, and even at that, I'd say the Ranieri one was more expected.

He's clearly a very, charismatic talented coach, who tries to play football the right way. The Paul Merson's & co. will have a field day over with these inconsistent results though...."foreign *****".
 
Nah. Not for me. Every club he’s ever been at. Rides that initial new manager bounce. Then tails off to _____.

Really don’t get the fascination with him?

But I’m fully behind him getting 2 seasons at least at the Ev. I love that idea!

*Edit* Those of Merson’s ilk aren’t worth your time of day mate. Xenophobic, Nationalistic, bigoted *****. It’s thanks to the likes of his attitude 2019 will be one of the worst this Country’s ever faced. But thats for another forum.

#htafc has completed the signing of @England Under-19 international @jadenbrown89 from fellow @premierleague side @SpursOfficial!
 
A statistic to try to digest before tonight’s mouthwatering clash at the Etihad Stadium: only once in the Premier League era have a team with at least 15 wins in their first 20 matches failed to win the title — yet that is the unhappy fate that awaits two of Liverpool, Manchester City and Tottenham Hotspur this season.
 
^^^^^ Ridiculously high standards.

I don’t think, reading the Utd thread, they appreciate just how far they’ve fallen and just how wide the gap is now within the top 6.
 

BREAKING NEWS
Sky sources Jermain Defoe will join #Rangers on an 18-month loan deal from Bournemouth.
The deal has two recall options in summer 2019 and January 2020.

It's a rather fruitless debate really because Mourinho ****** our season up so we'll never know, he made Pogba (a World Cup winner) into a bench warmer, so hard to calculate any of this season relatively.

Yes City and Liverpool are much better teams this season, but I still think on paper there isn't really much between both squads in terms of quality player for player between United and Liverpool. the only obvious difference is Van Dijk and a manager who knows what he's doing.
