Feel exactly the same. whenever they get back in the prem i will be looking forward to beating them, but until then the less i know of them the better. Completely irrelevant

Chiesa or Lillestrom for me pls

Ok cool. But they are a very small minority and do not represent the huge majority of us…

I reckon we might see him on instead of Maxi, move big joe back into the middle with bruno and tonali. ———————pope——————— trips——scar———botman——-burn (other) ———————tonali——_—————— ————-bruno————Joe————- miggy (other)——-isak———-ASM (gordon)

This is a crazy statement Kaka. If you have ever studied politics or sociology you will know that the two extremes of the bell curve are where you will find “radicals” who are capable of triggering interest (media) and blowing things out of proportion. I also find it flabbergasting that people would not want their best players in their team because of the colour of their skin, it makes no sense. We all at times want ASM out of the team for his lack of defensive work and huffs, but I have never ever heard anyone criticise his involvement because of his colour. As for england; I stopped going to England games over twenty years ago because it seemed to me that they attracted the scum of the earth(bell-ends again!) worst support I have seen in my life! Would never go back. If you were using only the people who attend england games as your base statistic, then I could possibly see where you are coming from…

Vinicius was an unknown kid when he went to Madrid, he was pretty average his first year there…. Could be a good bet, bring him through slowly, and at 20M it should be good value

Good signing for villa, Pau torres heading their way as well. Emery is strengthening well

I want him to get a proper pre-season into him and for his niggles to dissappear. We could finally see the Maxi we would all love to see i.e. fully fit and doing his bit at defending (albeit not that much… but something)

Similar player to Zlob and Madders

Mattheus Franca will be that guy?

Some nuanced writing over the last couple of pages with many suppositions and little statistical backing. Would rather you all talked it through together (Saudi Embassy?) in a nice relaxed ambience…

I would like three players minimum 120-150Mspend, our rivals are already ahead of us transfer wise and we need to keep pace. Left back, centre back and a right winger who can also play left. Tierney (25), Gleison (30) and Chiesa (40) would be fine…

Partey and Zhaka are bobbins, Rice is a huge upgrade on that pair. he will give the security they lacked in the big games.

Rumoura about that Liverpool now after Dom Sloz… Would be absolutely gutted if they got him

Yes

Surely a Championship team would be much better for him to bring him up to pace? Counter attacking team to use his pace?

If we are amortising the Tonali contract o ver six years it will propabaly work out at 20 M per year (purchase and wages). Means we have enough for two more similar signing to keep within FFP (Maddison/Dom + Other). Also, as every season goes by we will increase our revenue streams and will be able to spend more.

Just watched a highlights vid of him, what stands out most is how he outmuscles/outthinks/shoulder barges players iff the ball and then works himself into space. proper pivot for us this season, bruno further up field….

Mix of Pirlo and Gattuso according to italian press

He is a typical italian “Regista”, the lowest midfielder who both starts the plays from defence and also who is the man who breaks up opposition attacks. A No.6 (pivot) who is both elegant and aggressive. Supposedly Italy’s best young midfielder… Would be a cracking signing and his best years ahead of him!

Iraola is very well respected in Spain for what he has done and the football he likes to play e.g. hard high pressing with quite direct attacking football.

At 17 million it looks like a bargain. Also, if it came down to choosing between Dom Soz and Maddison i think we would be getting a player more suited to Eddies philosophy if we got big Dom.

Would rather play the tough teams at the start of the season, some will not be playing at their best and we could take advantage… plus, nobody will be looking forward to playing us this season.

Sets a low bar that lad, not keen on that attitude tbh…

Dodgy fluff tache tho’
