Harry's telling the truth

[Ed the Ball]

Stating the blindingly obvious tbf.

Did he say what the reasons for the changes today were?

Yes I agree with this, Harry is right but for what reason did he change a winning team from last week. Still love him tho!

[Stanley]

He played Granero ahead of Diakite today which shows he still rates him - but maybe thats changed after today...

[loft54]

Traore and onuaha had knocks thats why he changed the back 4 and before anyone says why were they on the bench is because we didnt have any other choice.

Harry on TalkSport tonight

"Theres some good lads here and there's some other lads who shouldn't be here, but I've got to keep going with the good lads and add one or two more good lads to the good ones."

That's all well and good, but how are you going to a) shift them when they're rubbish and on big money, b) sign better players on less money when there's big earners at the club?

indeed - we all know the problem. the question is can the club do anything about it?

If not, we´re doomed!

the problem was in order to get these supposedly big names to take a risk and come to an unfashionable, struggling club we had to pay big money. taking into account he was a "free" transfer, it wasn't obvious at the time who was better for the money. tho in retrospect we prob wd have been better sticking with luke young...

“There are a lot of average players here. I fined a player last week and he was earning more than anyone at Tottenham.

If this is true then we are being run by mugs. No matter how much you like the current or previous owners this is naivety beyond belief. And hardly surprising that they don’t perform if you are already letting them dictate to the club instead of the other way around. They must be laughing themselves to sleep at night

[stainrodisalegend]

i do hope none of the fans now complaining about the money we spent were among all those on here saying "ffs get your chequebook out" at the time...

[QPRDave]

Well said Harry lets hope we can ship em out

So very true. And I hope Fernandes will learn his trade, step by step.

It wouldn't surprise me at all if its true TBH.
