Harmony is top notch in our squad by all accounts, including Shelvey.

Time to get banned? First interview back to training. https://quickfileshare.org/7g3/Shelvey.mp4 (Sorry about the time penalty for free download) Why is this beautiful bald cunt on page 2? England would have more goals if he'd played instead of Henderson. (caveat: maybe)

I'd be fine with that if it meant Ashley had no more excuses for not spending. The reality is he probably pays clever accountants more than anyone else in his empire Almost looking forward to studying next years financial submission from the club.

Of course its unreal, though not the way you meant it. Another good season for us will see his value top 30m at minimum. Paper-talk had that figure mooted as Chelsea's asking price now! An ideal deal would have been with an option to buy based on a decent loan fee with a set fee at the end of that loan.

Get in!

Until he's gone and we here something, anything, from Rafa about why it happened I'll reserve judgement.

Straight to Ace Posts imo.

Be interesting to see where he is/what he is doing 2 or 3 years from now...

Exactly, another season of not getting much game time.

Spot on for me. Can't quite put my finger on why some people don't think he's an upgrade. I can only assume the judgement is clouded by the thought Townsend betrayed us by leaving. (Don't slaughter me if I'm wrong - explain why he's not an upgrade.) I suspect, maybe wrong, if you asked him now he'd say he should have stayed. Always easy to say in hindsight. Him, or us.

If it's true that Borussia Monchengladbach walked away from increasing their £20m bid I'd say that would make Nice re-think, possibly accepting around 21/22m? If Mitro goes for circa £20m it's job done really.

How much did we Ashley get?

Was a good soldier, helped win a few battles but a War needs Special Forces. @ shit joke If it is Townsend it's a grade above already, discounting emotional reactions about 'OMG!, he left to play with Pards!!!' new page serial masturbator

What a game, and poor Japan. After 2-0 I thought another favourite was gone. Fair play to Belgium though, that comeback took some determination. They said after the game that the last team to come back from 2-0 down was in 1970! (Germany vs England).

Like Rafa did against Man City at home you mean? It was the correct tactic and it paid off. (We were better than Russia like )

Christ; finish your broccoli and you can have some pudding! Its a time served tactic with 8 year olds, the first steps in teaching kids about emotional blackmail. Shouldn't think Rafa will fall for it without his team getting some cast iron guarantees which means a protratced (like they're not lengthy enough already) process puting all the trnsfers in jeapordy and running them right to the wire.

Lots of Ki/Shelvey hugs here.. (YT) Ki Sung Yueng - Swansea Player of the Year. F*ck you laudrup! Read two more articles suggesting Ki and Shelvey had a good understanding with each other, and Shelveys departure from Swansea certainly coincided with a decline in Ki's effectiveness. Reading into everything it seems to me he grew disillusioned with Swansea. Playing well again as soon as he went out on loan to Sunderland. He'll be a good squad player and perhaps more pivotal than that.

Said the same about Shelvey if I recall so a good signing based on that. Probably something about that team then that fucked players off and it reflected in their games.

Surely Japan is preferable to Colombia? Not what I mean. I've seen a lot of talk like we should just throw the game, as if we're that damn good. We're not. Don't get me wrong, we might well be coming into a new phase of development and getting better, but a 6-1 defeat of Panama should not be prompting wild assumptions of class. You know Belgium have put a second string out and their manager has said the priority is not to win? And Southgate said the opposite and made 5 changes.

Just missing Shelvey FTW

We will though, no way Rafa lets players go without it meaning incoming. (prays)

Not too bad, I don't have balls of steel when it comes to money. Cashed out at £38.64. Going to miss the African teams, always enjoy watching them play.
