Totally agree but seems to be a "prefer to stay in London" type. Maybe i'm wrong, nothing wrong with going after him.

Good points. Tielemans is one i'd break the bank for if there was any possibility at all. Brilliant player, different to what we have, huge PL experience and quality. One of my favorite current non-Toon PL players.

Are the top players from other (not top 6) PL clubs realistic? Raphinha and Phillips are excellent in their positions and would improve us hugely but, now that Leeds are almost certainly staying up with us, are they likely to move? Better question, would Leeds sell them to us? I don't know. Not trying to be negative but i'd think the PL would be our toughest market to work in and those type of players, we'd be quoted 50m+ each. That said, I don't know what is realistic in the summer full stop. If someone had told me in January that our top 5 targets were Burn, Wood, Targett, Bruno and Trippier, i'd have said the first 3 are pretty realistic and the others just aren't. And yet, absurdly, we convinced both to move to a side in the bottom 3. So who the hell knows what we should expect but it will be exciting to say the least to find out.

Some bad hair in this Leicester side. Both Dewsbury Hall and Maddison are gonna be slapheads by the time they're 35

That outside of the foot chipped pass last night man, Christ

They're playing like a side who look like they think they could just turn up and the run would continue whereas City are making it happen. Tactically better, much sharper, should have the game won by now.

Yep, can barely imagine the atmosphere and thrills at Gillingham yesterday

TAA looking a right dopey twat at times like, been caught out a few times

The vision and footwork of these City players, Christ man

What a fucking ball in

Fabinho does some underrated job in the middle

It was Ederson

Stick a leather jacket on VvD and he wouldn't look out of place managing the windows in Amsterdam.

Liverpool's ability to create from FB/WB is ridiculous

Decent start

Amazing save or poor finish?

Where's that tosser Burnley fan who signed up here a few months back to declare we'd hound EH out after "a coupe of defeats". Lerl.

99 times out of a 100 he'd score there

Should put him in midfield

Was watching the Villa game yesterday and had a thought about Bruno, if he'd somehow ended up at Spurs instead, playing those delicious through passes for that front 3. Scary thought, not that they're struggling for creativity anyway.

Knocking bet to manage Norwich at some point, safe pair of hands/ex-player/huge experience of the championship etc

You like to see commitment and meaty, fair tackles but the Mings one, he was trying to hurt Kulusevski imo

Ings deserved a booking for his stupid hair, never mind the tackle

Front 3 are amazing

Bloody hell, Gordon Banks in nets for Brighton
