"Manchester United should be at least the sixth best team in England" 💭 Do you agree? 💬

Was Newcastle United's signing of Elanga under or overpriced? Watch my full debate with @TalkCPFC, @MikeMcCub & @_SamObaseki 👇 youtu.be/rCqz2ZX7dQk

If I were Brighton, Forest, Fulham or even West Ham I'd be making serious enquiries about Delap... United and Chelsea are risky places to go and there's no guaranteed starting spot at Newcastle as long as Isak is around. Discussing this and more on the latest Lowdown 👇
Which club would suit Liam Delap the best if the forward was to leave Ipswich? 🤔

Would Mbeumo suit Eddie Howe's style of play at Newcastle? 👀

Seeing a lot of disbelief at this debate. My take: - By WC 2026 Nwaneri will be 19 and could be scarily good - He has developed in a possession system, like Tuchel's - England need more creativity, and Bowen is primarily a scorer - Ageing squad, we need a youngster in there imo
Nwaneri or Bowen? 🤔 The Lowdown pick Thomas Tuchel’s 2026 England World Cup squad! 🏆

and to conclude: it's not about who is the better player (obviously Bowen right now), but who will fit the system better. England have repeatedly failed in the past when picking players purely based on club form/importance

Big question is would Palace even consider selling him? One of the best number nines in the Prem, and a problem position at Palace for a long time prior to Glasner's arrival. In 2025, if you have a centre-forward who scores consistently, you keep hold of them at any cost 🤷‍♂️
Should Man United sign Jean-Philippe Mateta from Crystal Palace? 👀

Couldn't have said it better myself. First worked with @MinaFootball in 2022 when she joined us on an FD video, was impressed with her analysis then and she's only got better since. (1/2)
Ever since we posted this clip of @MinaFootball talking about De Bruyne potentially moving to Saudi Arabia she has been abused on Twitter, Instagram and TikTok… and it’s simply not acceptable. We asked Mina to come back on The Lowdown this week because she is one of the most articulate, knowledgeable and passionate guests we’ve had on. The ease with which she speaks with informed authority, seamlessly switching between the men’s and women’s game is the reason why she is one of the most impressive emerging content creators in the space. I’m fed up of internet trolls talking about wokeness or box ticking, every time a person who isn’t a straight, white, male talks publicly about football. It’s honestly pathetic. Mina you’re awesome at what you do, ignore the idiots and keep smashing it! ❤️

And good to see the reaction of the majority of viewers to the nonsensical abuse - clearly, anyone who actually watched the video, or has watched Mina's content, knows how good she is.
