Players vote to be third choice captain

When the first choice cap/vice cap aren't included in the vote, I feel it's important to say.
3 midfielders minimum in the next window. And probably another young CB to boot.

Anything else is negligent.

I've got a feeling that Origi is the real deal, from a couple of games I watched but mainly his interviews there seems to be something about him.

there was a high ball in the second half he chested away from an opponent near the half way line, would love to see a gif of it

Loved that moment.
Caught myself thinking how that is the standard of our defending now, how we're seeing these bits as 'normal' - all thanks to Virgil and his incredible mix of skill and confidence. Crazy when you think about our past defensive troubles - it's like they never existed.

Was he too nonchalant on the goal today - I'm actually being serious - he didn't seem to really get anything on the ball other than the deflection.

Or was it just happening too fast and nothing he could really do.

Nothing he could have done to that goal to be honest. And he should have scored one with a bit of luck.

I’ve plenty links to the clubs playing and backroom staff as many on here know thank you very much. Fair enough, I admire your optimism. But you’re absolute ostriches if you think this squad, even with 2 or 3 new, “cut price” players with potential get us anywhere close

Not that it matters much, but it's definitely about Salford. The original that Ewan MacColl wrote actually referenced Salford' although many who've re-recorded it sang 'Sulphered' or substituted something completely different. Even MacColl himself substituted in the word 'smoky' instead of Salford when he recorded it with his wife.
