    They'd lap up all that crap in the US.

    A pal of mine who supports Birmingham City is claiming there’s lots of noise about him going back there.

    With Sam Johnstone leaving WBA, could also see him returning there under Steve Bruce.

    And that doesn't even take into account the times Foster thought he was Superman charging off his line

    Bachmann is better than Mendy, Fabianski and Martinez. Cool.

    As I said in the other thread - sample size.

    Plus how many goals did Bachmann concede that other keepers wouldn't have, not on account of his shot-stopping, but because of his complete inability to come off his line?

    Plenty, as he is, of course, also abysmal; I don't pretend for a second.

    Like most of our squad, we’re reduced to arguing about who is the least shyte, rather than who is the better player.

    There's literally no possible chance that he is an adult with a fully-functioning brain at this point. A 12-year-old Youtube fangirl would be ashamed at writing that.

    And in English?

    Must be from some sort of programme (probably Netflix?)

    If you're asking what the screenshot is from, it's KSI and his minions.

    Latest podcast is an hour of him saying how fit he still is, how he wants to continue to play and how much a great #2 he'd be at a club like Arsenal. Can't help but think he's being a bit ambitious there.

    Was gonna say I could see more of a Scott Carson-esque No.3 role if he's extremely lucky, then I checked and was shocked enough to discover even scott Carson is 3 years younger than the gurning Youtuber.

    I mean if Bachmann can attract interest from United...

    I think many PL clubs would take him as No.3 if he dropped the social media nonsense. But I just can’t see him doing that - and I don’t think any PL club is as blasé as we have been about it. Undoubtedly it would pi$$ off half-decent HC’s/managers at that level.

    Imagine if Scott Carson did it? Or Tom Heaton? Their clubs and big name players would have kittens at him shoving go pro’s all over the place and gurning after a big game defeat.

    I still think we will face him next season at either WBA or Birmingham City - and his YouTube nonsense continues.

    I feel he may go the GK coaching role. Or the social media coaching role.

    He seemed to think most clubs would see it as an advantage for the free PR and showing the personalities of their players behind the scenes lol.

    He also said he didn't fancy himself as a GK coach and wouldn't wanna do that.

    That's very good of him to offer to earn a few more million as a 40 year old back up.

    Also loved the way he said he'd like to work with a world class younger keeper to teach them some things, completely ignoring the fact he's never been at that level.

    Maybe he could teach them how to avoid not making it at a top club like Man U!

    The least self aware person I have come across,my hapless coaching colleague notwithstanding.

    Or maybe even a proper coach role as assistant to him...

    ...involving this...?
    upload_2022-6-2_9-23-45.jpeg Finally, he'll be a square peg in a square hole. You can make up your own jokes from that set-up!

    He must read the same book as Dustin Johnson. The Alternative Meatloaf. I wouldn't do that but I'd do it for money.

    He's like millions of others who suffer from rotten brain syndrome. Causes usually being a social media addiction, and/or listening/watching to terrible popular music that infests the airwaves or lowbrow television. He's beyond help. The gormless gurner.

    You little beauty...get in! I feel a millionaire dollars!! Anyone got Lloris' number?
    Bazzler, can you get hold of it for me? I've got a podcast to organise with Rhino Legs pronto.

    Sorry. Incoming news, that's Forster.

    Aaron, Aaron, you absolute ledge...can you have word with Mikel again please? Didn't you tell me that Leno was 'burnt'....?
    I'm still offering to warm the bench on a 'pay as I sit' basis. Yeah, sit.

    Ben's efforts to find his next club is exemplary. Arsenal? Nope.... Aston Villa?...hmm. Bournemouth, Brentford, Brighton stand by your phones for your call from Fozzie. He'll be cycling your way anytime soon.

    Leventhal teasing an interview with Foster dropping tomorrow where he alludes that he hasn’t held back in his comments.

    It's damning nobody wants to hire Foster currently. He'd do a job skill wise for a mid table Championship team still, but you wonder how many teams have been put off by his sideshow?
