  1. Towns and cities across the land rejoice.
  2. The next utterly tiresome transfer 'saga' awaits. Sissoko will go to Napoli on loan and Barkley will go to Spurs on the last day. SSN and the Twitter journos rinse every last second out of the story in the meantime.
  3. Exactly, he's hardly going to burst into angry tears and smash the camera. He's a pro.
  4. With last season's squad plus Lejeune, De Jong and Saivet we'd be in another relegation battle, no doubt about it. Ridiculous lack of quality in the squad which resulted in us toiling a fair bit last season, in the Prem I think we'd be bottom feeders, even with Rafa's coaching. You can't polish a turd.
  5. I've gone for Aguero, reckon people might overlook him a bit cos Jesus and Lacazette are cheaper, the injury stuff and the fact Kane was on fire at the back end of last season.
  6. If that happened, Gayle will almost certainly break his leg on the 3rd of September and we'd be left with Mitro and Perez, having sold Murphy and not replaced him.
  7. Looks like those old shirts that'd collect shitloads of static.
  8. Can only hope Ashley bins off Charnley or something if Rafa gives him an ultimatum. He must know the club will be worth a load more if Rafa is given time to put his stamp on things.
  9. Nice top that. I look forward to seeing it in action twice in the coming season.
  10. England under 19's 4-1 up against Germany. Sessegnon is some player already, he'll go for silly money soon. Mason Mount is a good prospect too. Chelsea have sent him to Vitesse next season.
  11. I wonder if it's not our wage structure that's actually daft as shite (yes I know the above article is about Sevilla struggling to meet demands) as it would explain the kinds and types of deals we've been linked with so far. Money to spend just not on wages. Yeah, I suspect this 70m "every penny we've got" stuff includes wages, which might fit in with the 5-10m rumours, if Rafa wants 6 players. (not done the maths, just wildly speculating)
  12. For goals to pound ratio we should've gone for Jon Walters.
  13. Happy we stepped aside for Iheanacho. He's someone who's clearly got talent but there's definitely question marks over how well he'll transition into a team where he'll have to work a lot harder in all departments to be successful.
  14. Would he even get in their side? They seem to have better options everywhere he could play.
  15. 15m is probably about right for Hart I reckon. 120k a week isn't though.
  16. If only the sponsor didn't look like something out of Blade Runner.
  17. Prediction: Lejeune in on Friday. Followed by a development squad signing the following Thursday. That'll be it for the next two weeks.
  18. Went twice in Norwich when I lived up there, it's a brilliant day.
