Atta boy..

IF Mitchell is even actually there you would think it's more than just to scout. If he has tracked him at Monaco then he knows what to expect. Maybe we are buying a club in Turkey lol
-
Not convinced Roque was ever on the cards. Certainly not if we get Osula. I guess it's possible if Wilson was shipped off but not convinced it's anything but a spurious link from a Spanish paper.

Madueke and Guehi 😜
-
He is concussed, hence his absence from the Sheffield United squad, according to Chris Wilder, so hopefully he isn't the one driving!
-
I'd take Madueke for a lower fee than getting someone bigger if it meant getting Guehi. Still not convinced we won't bid for MGW.
-
Definitely a bit cautious on this one. Scant details. Normally when this stuff breaks its a bit further along. Would be an absolutely excellent player for us. If its true, it is a big one for Mitchell. It's his first real test. He isn't going to want to lose this signing. Can't wait to see him and Lascelles tear it up! Maybe we can send them almiron the other way.
-
Potentially. Question marks on how ready he is. Think it's 50/50 whether he goes into the squad or gets loaned out imo.
-
Good thread here: Most fans that replied don't expect he is ready for first team minutes in the prem but pretty unanimous he has huge potential if he gets good coaching in his weaker areas.
-
I think it's more a) he is injured too much and aging so people (myself included) are okay with him being moved on while we can get a decent fee. Then b) he doesn't want to be a back up player (which is fair enough) and so people needlessly question every mannerism,body language or time he is injured etc. Don't think anyone can bash how good he is when fit. He has never let us down. Type of player I'd like to see staying as backup in an ideal world, as he will be be hard to replace without spending big money. PSR ruins everything lol.

Provided we still bring in a top drawer RW this looks like a solid move. Versatile and we need a 3rd choice striker with no one in the youth teams in that position that's good enough.

Encouraged Lewis got a run out and didn't look bad. Still likely off but love me a good redemption arc! -
Apparently the CSA say they have been doing it for years with both the men's and women's teams lol.
-
There was a time where he was promising. Over ten years ago now. Not sure what he has been doing since lol
-
Where did you hear this? Doesn't make sense for anyone? Can see Herdman being interested of course. Can't see them fronting the money required for Longstaff. Both Bernadeschi and Insigne signed on free transfers. After years of big signings marquee failures and Manning getting dumped, I can't see them doing in the same direction and for someone like Sean. Maybe in 3 or 4 years time?
-
Essentially the right sided Kelly of a signing! That's maybe putting Kelly down a bit. Good versatile depth piece but not much more.
-
Really solid experienced addition this. Love it. Hopefully we should have enough to consolidate, avoid relegation and continue building. Another promotion seems unlikely given the competition at this level but we are on a roll.

Arsenal in for Neto?

Never looks 16 lol

The last 3 seconds.. from fun loving Isak to don't fuck with me Isak lol -
I thought it was reported that it was Howe that pushed for Mitchell to start with then when he turned it down we went for Freedman.. but got him in the end. At any rate I thought it was widely reported Eddie was into the Mitchell appointment? Surely Luke hasn't made this one up?
