  1. I'm leaning towards team Milanista on this one. Don't see it as realistic at all to get Tonali for anything even close to the quoted prices or wages.

    Joelinton

    Joelinton is the one that should start next to Bruno
  3. Based on how well liked Lodi is with Forest fans and how much they want him to stay but fear losing him to a CL team, you sure it's right to do that comparison? Mendy & Pope were both playing in the PL before the start of this season.
  4. Buying Maddison instead of Szoboslai is like if we had bought Zaha instead of isak last summer. A bit cheaper but with consistent numbers in the PL at the expense of a potentially higher ceiling.
  5. Shiny object syndrome > this is fine syndrome
  6. One of the biggest upgrades Bournemouth could do this summer.
  7. Not disputing that at all. They for sure will get more than anyone else would offer if it goes through, and it helps them out FFP wise. They still spent a shit load of money they won't get back though, and I doubt Boehly have bottomless supply of money to sustain that kind of spending even if they can FFP wise.
  8. Any credible links to share? Getting 35m for Koulibaly (only figure & name I've read on here) and a similar fee for Kovacevic from Man City they aren't even remotely close to getting back what they spent last season.
  9. On top of going all out to defend a 1-0 lead by making a triple sub, he leaves a central defender on who has cramp in both legs and can hardly run he can fuck off together with the incompetent morons who extended his contract out of nowhere as a sign of solidarity to have him stink the place up for yet another qualifier.
  10. Gonna be fun to see Solbakken whimp his way through an unsuccessful WC qualification too with possibly the best generation of footballers Norway will ever have.
  11. Getting schooled by Wilson in training. Promising.
  12. It doesn't even have to be that clear cut. If he works hard and gets on with everyone he interacts with on a day to day basis they might just think he's a perfect candidate already in place as he know everyone within the club and is someone they can easily mould into a loan manager that meets their expectations if he doesn't already. I'm able to look past Lascelles backing of Ashley at this point. I think everyone still within the club including Shola deserves the same chance.
  13. Dare I say it looks like Shola has done a good job loaning him out to Feyenoord, provided he gets decent amount of playing time? Feyenoord seems to like high pressing from their forwards like Howe going by what the interviewer says, Minteh says he's mint at the defensive part of the game too and is happy to put in the hard work without the ball. Get him used to a bit higher level than the danish league and have him ready to play a part for us next season?

    Felix Nmecha

    Is there a link of screen shot of the mentioned tweets? On a general note, sharing a tweet without opposing the message in it by self proclaimed "theocratic facist" Matt Walsh is an automatic no for me.
  15. Pretty much this. Love that we take the same advantages as other. Would love if it was regulated so neither we or anyone else could do it.

    Joelinton

    Last season he was a revelation as a midfield destroyer. This season he was the complete package. Jack of all trades, master of none - but in a positive way Not one thing you can look at and say it is a weakness in his game. Easily a regular starter for me next season and beyond (if he stays at or improves on his current performance level) no matter who we bring in this summer.
  17. Yup, and nobody is going to pay the type of wages he is getting either, so if it fails, at best they manage to loan him out with a symbolic wage contribution from the loaning club and do that every year until his contract is up like we are and have been doing with players like Colback, Hendrick and probably now Fraser.
  18. Voted 100-120m on the basis that it's net spend.
  19. First kit I'll be buying from the club since the golden northern rock one. Was tempted to buy one this season but ultimately very glad I waited until Fun88 was gone. Love the simple design with black & white logo. Any pictures of the back?
  20. Let Leicester sweat. Doubt they feel as comfortable keeping him unless their insane asking price is met him the closer we get to deadline day. £40m is already more than generous.
  21. First sensible appointment Spurs have made since Pochettino imo. The sort of appointment/signing that eventually got them to a CL final. Unless they get new owners with bottomless pockets of money they have to gamble on unrealized potential. They did it so well from around the time Redknapp was appointed up until Pochettino got sacked where they slowly but surely managed to build that team by being able to replace their best players that got sold for massive fees with players that made their squad better over all.
  22. He is in an ice bin bath. Can't get better restitution than that.
  23. Thought it was fairly well known. He wasn't even supposed to sign for us in the first place as he had signed for Lille, but something weird happend where the transfer was cancelled, we came in and swooped him up instead. https://onefootball.com/en/news/florian-thauvin-on-time-at-newcastle-i-thought-my-career-was-fued-22565986
  24. Must be release clause or verbal agreement Brighton are honoring. No way they accept such a low fee if they have no obligation to do so.
  25. It also helps when the player actually wants to be here.
