We'd give either of these sides a game. In fact, I'd say Gordon and Isak would love that Barca back line.

Regardless of your view on the pen, stuff like that will happen when you defend in such a way. You don't win CLs defending like that. Traditionally, trying to simply outscore the opposition for 2 sets of 90 minutes without ever thinking about consolidation in spells, will catch you against good sides.

Yeah i hear ya. I think we will be looking in the 40- lower 50 bracket. 21-26, experience for their age etc, internationals, at clubs who are vulnerable to us.

Looked like he got the ball to me?

Mental defending here.

Aye it's lush. You should try Castle Douglas too, real beautiful part of the world.

Obviously this is me just wildly speculating but it's these sorts of players I expect us to be looking at. I'm not for a second saying he fits what we specifically want but it's more the age/experience/price range etc. I also am a big believer in looking at agents. I'm sure 5 of our signings have came from the same agent in England... including our manager for example.

Mind, winning 1-0, I'd be furious with Hall being that far up the field.

As in 60m+?

I mean fair enough but this guy not giving it?

But Livramentos was? Absolute temerity.

That's a pen?

Does anyone know anything about Napoli CB Buorngiono?(spelling) No link other than he's the same agent as Tonali and Tonalis agent owes us one.

This is some of the worst defending ever.

Di Marco would be ace for a top PL side.

You reckon Brentford will be happy with their captain telling the world which of their players are likely to leave?

Squad options, including duplicates: (GK) Pope, New GK, New reserve GK, Gillespie. Out: Dubravka, Ruddy. (RB) Tino, Trippier, Krafth. Out: Harrison Ashby. (LB) Hall, Tino, Trippier, Burn . Out: Targett, Lewis. (CB) New CB, Botman, Schar, Burn, Krafth. Out: Lascelles. (CM) Tonali, Bruno, Joelinton, Miley, Willock, New CM. Out: Longstaff. (RW) Murphy, New RW, Osula. (LW) Gordon, Barnes, Osula, Joelinton, Willock. (ST) Isak, New CF, Osula So for me, it's 5 signings, CF, RW, CB, GK, CM. My guess is that the club will be looking at versatility. Can we find a RW that can play CF? (Mbuemo), or an attacking player that can fill various roles (Cunha) or even a CB who can play fullback (Thiaw).

I've seen some pathetic atmospheres in day time games. I just want it to be a cauldron.

Always liked Dom.

I don't think we get anything at Arsenal or at least I'm certainly not counting on it. Chelsea is tough. If it had been a night game, I'd back us but I do worry about the atmosphere and the crowd. I hope worflags is doing something big.

We all have our own view but my priorities would be RCB RW (preferably who can play up front too) CM GK .. Then some more defensive cover, someone who is versatile would be ideal.

I agree but at the same time, we probably can't bring in a CM without shifting one. I think shifting Longstaff will be easy, there will be a few lower PL sides will take him. I don't see us going with big bucks for a player like we did with Tonali though. I think we need to box smart.

This is why I wanted Norgaard from Brentford on a free but he signed a new contract with them. He'd have been ideal to slot in for Tonali or Bruno and push Tonali forward when required. Id like to think we have some smart ideas in this area. I don't think we will sign a CM until Longstaff is gone, or Willock.

A point is ok right? From our perspective?

Come on you holmesdales cunts.
