Where the fucks he gonna play for them? Raphina getting shoved out the door? 🙃

Assume Guehi will be on the move then. I think we'll be in the mix, but there will be a decent amount of competition.

Cool

Don't lose all hope based upon a dhgate/backroom shitpic. It's not making my loins tingle but I'm not giving up.

All are talents that are honed. That ability to do tricks - mentally and physically - is a talent. Dancing is a talent. Running fast is a talent. Being strong is a talent.

I feel like if we were an animal we’d have been put out of our misery by now. We should all pitch in and get an Anton Chigurh tribute act to take out a few of the weaker fans

Ah man, had my heart set on the KI mockup.

Looks promising imo. Great to see the badge in full colour on an away kit for once. No beef with the shield.

My dad’s half West African so I hope it wasn’t that. Think we’d been linked to both at the time and I got them confused. Knowing me I probably doubled down without really checking.

Fuck that, gutting

We still need cover but I'm willing to explore the possibility.

I dont think we would necessarily need a 20-goal striker. One 15-goal striker, an extra 5 from RW and 5 from midfield and we've covered the goal contributions. When we sell Isak, hopefully for a lot of money, we will invest that in two or three players. We'll struggle to replace him but we will have an opportunity to make the squad stronger.

Just to contribute to an utterly pointless debate. Footballing talent is of a different character to athleticism. A talented athlete is not by right a talented footballer and a talented footballer is not by right a talented athlete.

Shield around the badge replicates this does it not? I picked this up in Magaluf before it was released over here. Felt like royalty walking through the airport when we got home.

Our recruitment team and coaching staff would make it work by reinvesting the money and improving the team in multiple areas, I agree.

Being foreign

Better than Guehi (never seen him actually play)

Our better players have done well enough that the top clubs across the continent will be interested. If we do decide to move any for more financial wiggle room, the one rule should be to not sell to any of the top Premier League clubs, even if it means we have to get a little less money. That is the only thing I think we need to be very strong on. They banded together to make things difficult for the club to progress, and so let's return the favour and keep that going.

Is that Kieran Trippier's?

It'd be really hard, but I trust our recruitment team. I don't think we could replace him with one player, I think we'd need two attacking players to replace his goals.

For me real genuine talent is like HBA. Just born with a gift and a ridiculous touch. Meanwhile players like Doku and ASM have more “learned” the skill imo (while also having very quick feet physically)

Keep seeing the Isak thread top of the forum list thinking something has happened. Ben Jacobs (lol) and some liverpool fan (lol) account are the only 2 i can see talking about him leaving.

We need a signing like 🤣. I have to say I agree with TCD in the sense that I don’t get the distinction when people say talent and athletic ability as separate things. I personally don’t see where technical ability ends and some form of physical attribute starts. It feels like a very blurry thing - vision, passing, movement, ball striking are all acts executed via an elite athlete, and can be trained.
