Yeah I think we are done.

I think we are done after Ashby. Unless we sign Franca.

No pictures of this guy anywhere?

Any word your end?

Opens the door for us to sign Declan Rice. Cheers lads.

True, but playing devil's advocate, would he have done all the other stuff that Longstaff does do well? Namely off the ball work?

He looks confident in himself too.

Weird how the fans have been split on him but I've never been more convinced that the fans will love him. First few tackles etc and we will be all in.

Content is unreal. Hearing Howe say how long he's been tracking him and Ashworth saying something similar. Amazing what goes on behind the scenes in the pursuit of a player.

Also it was "Richarlison and Allan used to sit together too". Pope is the fucking sweetest.

"You can protect me now" "You have to deserve it first"

He said to Schar "you can protect me now". Pope said he's spoke to Tarkowski and said he will look after him. Bruno and Joelinton and something about Richarlison and Brazilians sitting together. Lush stuff.

Where is the famous "first day" video? Edit: Some timing that.

Looks too complicated that. I wouldn't want us outlaying 40m for him in the summer because we are obliged to pay it and not have the finance to go after Maddison or Neves. Perhaps we could do both, but I doubt we would. Berge for half that would be a solid addition and keep our powder dry for the summer.

Would much prefer Berge.

I think it's more than enough to get Gallagher but he would have to be a moron to go there.

So in a couple of weeks, we could potentially have a bench of; Dubravka Lascelles Targett Ashby Berge Gordon Anderson ASM Isak Any we question what our transfer team are doing? chalk and cheese compared to a few weeks ago

They will do their utmost to replace him but ultimately this was a deal they had to do. They didn't want Shelvey triggering an extension.

Fuck sake man. Was clearly having a laugh.

I'd shag that in a heartbeat. Mind you, after a few jars I'd convince myself Gordon himself was a bird and try and shag him too. Lads our days are far too picky. Nee one is asking you to marry them. Besides which, she's got some massive Chebchenkos and would no doubt make a cracking bacon sarny in the morning.

They are under a transfer embargo and need to raise funds. A loan with an obligation would sort them out.

He's already had a good English football education in the champo too. Would be another astute move.

He's actually more attacking than I remember.
