He’s 100% asked to leave. Straight bat Eddie is just being straight bat Eddie. Trippier 100% wants away, for multiple reasons. None of which are particularly football related

Think he thought that too.

He doesn't want to be here.

He's hawked himself literally everywhere

I also think it's time to move him on fwiw. He's been superb for us, but Tino is the future and he shouldn't be held back. We've had the best of Trippier and we should get what we can.

I didn't even realise this was a thing 😂 All I know is he wants away, a saudi move he was promised hasn't happened and he's sold his box on. Oh, his mrs and kids have gone back to Manchester as well. If he stays, it'll be because there were no offers, not because he wants to.

There's one of them behind me as well! 😂

No trippier today apparently

Pope Trippier Schar Burn Tino joelinton bruno longstaff murphy isak gordon

And we've actually made a bid!

I think I agree tbh. Krafth is fine as third choice, but Tino's injury record isn't the best and I wouldn't fancy a prolonged period of Krafth.

He's kicking a ball on his instagram story today. Good news that.

No idea if 'shadow puppets' is or not to be honest mate. I know trippier wants away for multiple reasons though. Saudi would be the most likely but if Bayern are still in for him as reported today (no idea how true that is) then that may change.

He's been great for us, but he wants to go and we're open to selling him. In hindsight, we should have let him go in January tbh. A key part of being a well functioning club is moving players on at the right time, we certainly haven't done that well enough in the past. Trippier, Wilson & Miggy all fall in to that category imo.

Trippier is 100% away. Not sure if it’ll be to turkey mind.

Villa are superbly ran. I really hope they disrupt the order. Along with us, of course.

same.

I do think this, coupled with the Mitchell appointment changes the optics for Howe. I really hop ehe has a good season, first sign of a rough patch and he'll be in real trouble imo.

We'll sign Calvert-lewin IMO. Howe has wanted him since his first January window. A deal will be done at £20m ish late in the window, or around half of that in Jan i reckon.

I thought Ashworth said 'I haven't seen you for a long time'. I could be wrong mind, and it's relatively moot anyway i guess.

Howe said that didn't he?

Any chance we can lock this thread?

Couldn't disagree more here, Willock is quality imo.

Miggy has been a great servant, I wish him nothing but the best.

Howe & Ashworth rated him very highly, it's the main reason we didn't follow up on Maddison and Paqueta before him. I really hope he goes on to do very well, but we won't miss him imo.
