I don't, as you said yourself we don't know anything hence me speculating if we will not fill ever hole and take some strategic risks. This is a discussion forum after all.

We signed Lewis Hall on loan. We could easily do a deal like that. We can also sell players. Which im sure we will. We dont need to spend 60m on every position. Whether we were linked with Diomande in the past or not is irrelevant. We clearly didn't want him and I can't think for a second its because we dont want a CB. If you want to put stock in media reports you could lean on every local journalist saying that CB is one of our priorities, or lean into us trying to sign Guehi last year, or enquiring about Scalvini. Guehi is going to Liverpool FWIW. Id rather we didn't even entertain that one anymore. Towards the end of the window we will sign a CB.

He has been linked with us in the media, of course it might mean nothing. Yes, nobody knows exactly what we can spend but I don't anticipate us spending 200m do you?

Diomande going to Palace has nothing to do with us. Nobody knows what we can/cant spend.

Because Guehi looks unlikely and Diomande who is believed to have a real high ceiling is good for a reasonable fee. I don't think we can do, top CB, top rw, rotation attack and Trafford with our budget personally.

How did PIFs actions lead us to that last season? We didn't even sign anyone 😂

Was payday when they took the pictures so he had to be at home supervising all the artics dropping his off.

Why?

That's fine because every time he's asked means Isak hasn't been sold.

Surely not, that would be a poor decision.

47m GBP. Makes me think we are going to delay buying a cb.

This is the problem with trying to equate business with international reach and household budgets though. Yes they make annual losses, but they’re in the majority appreciating assets, which is why US hedge funds are falling over themselves to invest in clubs over here.

Just checked the website, can't see nowt, we don't even have a photo of Matt Target.

We did at the end of the season I thought? It's just we offered Ruddy and Wilson extensions which are yet to be responded to.

Must be nice having a working transfer department

I agree. Trafford and Elanga seem desperate to come here so I think they are worth the premier league premium.

Be still my beating wallet.

Have we communicated the players that have been released yet ?

He’ll just straight bar them away in terms of “we’re not selling” so I don’t see an issue. Even if Howe and the club are fairly sure we might only have one season left with him he’ll be vital for the CL, re-qualifying for the CL and all round profile. I fully expect one of the continents big guns to come in for him next summer but there’s no way I see him leaving this summer. The potential transfer fee kills off most teams anyway.

They do though don’t they? No first team signing in 18 months or so. Howe and the players led us to the cup in spite of what happened off the pitch.

I hope we get Trafford and Elanga and then use the continent for anything else.

The same thing happened with Staveley. We missed out on Botman first time around, Diego Carlos, Ekiteke, Joao Pedro didn’t happen the first time round even Lingard and probably others I can’t remember or don’t know about. it was partly 3 awful windows because of Staveley and the fact we had spent beyond our limit and again this slow start thing is a myth the only summer buys we’ve had before 1st of July are Botman and pope and pope was with a relegation release clause

Yep, from the film Ice Cold in Alex.

Manchester City

I hate our fucking support sometimes man. "PIF needs to step up". They've literally lead us to a cup and another Champions League. So we've missed out on a few targets, we'll sign others. Chill the fuck out man.
