So Joelinton starts just 20% of games?

City and Chelsea are busy due to the CWC tbf.

Hope it is. My main assertion is that vs a low block you mainly want wingers to get to the byline and drill it into the box and cause some chaos.

This bastard SLAM shut tomorrow?

If i didnt know any better, i would think there are only 4 teams in the PL considering the teams that are allowed to sign at the moment.

I don't think it's as simple as that. You are always going to miss chances in every game, there's no team that is guaranteed to take every one. It's more that when you are struggling to make chances, those are the games - like Everton - where you just know they will go up the other end and score.

DCL leaving Everton. Please don’t do this, Newcastle. One good season five years ago shouldn’t mask that he is garbage.

Cherki to City for €40m

Think that plus fact he’s not played in 5 years were fuel for the ironic comment

Yeah of course. I suppose I mean that we might not sign players who we don’t think are a good fit for our ‘normal’ way of playing, just because they might make us a bit better against deep defences.

I know he's an elite athlete in his early 20's but this is still incredibly depressing.

Wasny he injured more or less the whole time he played in England?

There’s a name from the annals of Ashley’s more insidious chest of lies

I reckon he's going to beat that Ivan Drago

Wat

I'd take a link with Bastian Schweinsteiger at the moment.

Not that I know of, but they have a buy back clause. I'm just thinking out loud.

I presume we are getting very little news until closer to July 1. My guess would be we'll want to book costs for new signings in the next financial year, allowing the current financial year to end in a profit (or at least low level loss).

If it is (a smokescreen), I'm trying to imagine a player of the calibre of Tonali we'd bring in... can't think beyond Nico Williams (if he'd come here, but then I thought Tonali would never come).

Can Pedro not play in the left AM role in our system?

They're signing Trafford?

I wonder if City are activating that Trafford clause, even just to sell him on for a few quid.

Scott Carson hasn't contributed by making over 150 appearances for the most successful side in the league over the last 10 years.

Surely there are some type of players that are better against it than others though. Im thinking players with tricky feets in small spaces and a killer pass/shot. Messi being a pretty good example

Boro getting Castore
