I'm big fans of both.
But if you think Forsyth was adequate that season, you must either be forgetful or blind. His confidence was completely shot, and it seemed particularly bad at away games.
He's done really well to subsequently recover.

Deserves it's own thread, this is history being made! There's probably gonna be a film about it in years to come

This is a better analysis on Buchanan.

He was signed as an U23 with potential to move up to first team, just like any other U23 player. Only reason there was so much publicity is because the way he left Liverpool and his connections to Gerrard. He wasn't match fit when he joined and Stretton was banging goals in for U23, so why should he have played? 
Don't get why it's "what's wrong with youth in this day and age?" when you have young players we do who are all doing themselves proud.

Bi-polar? Better add that to the list I guess, next time I see him out in a super car i'll feel sorry for him in the comfort that he never meant anything he said and is very much a relatable peoples champ. I don't even dislike Fury I just get sick of the BS and double standards.
 

That is incredibly wrong about Ruiz. Ruiz is a fantastic fighter with unbelievable punch speed and great power. The only problem he has is his motivation which causes his weight issues. If you have someone motivated Ruiz, he could be a real problem for everyone in heavyweight.
For the second fight, Ruiz had already had his money from the first (which is levels above anything he would've ever had), so he ate loads of Snickers and lived the life, whereas AJ wanted to avenge, there was only going to be one winner in that.

Ruiz is a top fighter and was a top amateur, this kind of talk like Ruiz was no good and it shows how poor AJ is so casual. Saying most reasonable amatuers would go 10 with a motivated Ruiz is crazy. He was unlucky not to get the nod over Parker in his first title fight, he's now with Eddy Reynoso training out the same gym as his friend Canelo Alvarez...

I do find it amazing the disparity of scrutiny and judgement of both fighters to be honest, AJ fights a top guy every fight now when Fury took two soft touches after Wilder first time around. Went life and death with Wallin.
But I am sure he'll pull out some story about how he was driving in his Ferrari, wanted to drive it in to wall to kill himself and had to stop himself. Very relatable I must say. I also don't believe gays are a bad as paedophiles. He's done well to turn public perception round from where he was, AJ is the boxer that people love to hate now. I see a lot of people seem to hate him for saying support black businesses which I find quite revealing.

AJ vs Fury won't happen without a crowd, they need the gate receipts to maximise the profits and keep the purses high.
Fury is now probably the most overrated HW in the division now after beating Wilder who was literally tailored made for him, Wilder relies on one punch and has poor fundamentals which is a dream for Fury. The only win I rate highly on Fury's CV is Wlad but even then I feel like he beat Wlad more mentally than physically. Don't get me wrong I think Fury is very good but a few years ago he was the laughing stock of the division and nobody thought he'd do anything after he got dropped by Steve Cunningham. Also I feel he overplayed his mental illness to gain favour in face of scrutiny of his out of date beliefs on homosexuality, he's been riding on that for a couple of years now. I don't buy this peoples champ crap he's coming out with. Fury has been put down by much softer shots than AJ but seems to escape the criticism that is aimed at AJ.
I think it'll be a great fight but ultimately I think AJ will rough him up and knock him out, if it goes the distance you obviously favour Fury. AJ always performs better against the taller guys as his career has shown, very underwhelming against the shorter HWs he's faced. AJ likes a taller fighter where he can slip under the shots and unload the combos. No way will Fury get close to AJ and try and lean on him as he'd get uppercutted in to the stratosphere. It'll be Fury on the backfoot twitching like a mad man letting constant jabs go.
