5-2 Man U; they look quite decent tbh

It's going to be a fascinating title race next season; think whoever has the best start (first 10-15 games) will win

Barca are a joy to watch even though it's just their first game of pre season.

True; the football is so beautiful

Great goal Barca

Some comical goals in this Barca v Celtic match 

Agreed fees for Raphael Guerrero and Candreva

 

Haven't we previously monitored him?

 

 

 

Sounds like a load of bollocks to me?  Either that, or the wrong thread

Yeah

It's a load of balls; has Guerrero really joined Dortmund? Wow they've had a great window so far

We really really need a couple of attacking midfielders / wingers if he leaves.

This: we are very short on creativity; this is the one aspect that still worries me

Edit to the Benitez song

Replace Gini with Fuck Off

Austrian media reckon that Everton have triggered a 15million Euros release clause for Arnautovic

Interesting transfer; is he that different to Mirallas? both very temperamental

Juventus have apparently had an €18m bid accepted for Gabriel Barbosa.

 

Seems ridiculously cheap.

Juve doing a Spurs and spending the Pogba money?

“Hopefully I can be as successful as I have been at other football clubs,” says Allardyce.

Think Juve have got a canny chance for the CL next season now.

Yep; interested to see how Dortmund fair too; I think they've had a brilliant window;

Guess that means Morata definitely isn't going back there then.

 

Surprised Chelsea haven't made a move for him yet.

I think it might be a tactical ploy by Madrid not to sell to Chelsea; say they do, then it could open up Costa going to Atletico which strengthens a direct rival

Just my view

Agree with Moses, would be a smart move.

Moses and a number 10

Jamie Carragher giving his expert opinion on SSN right now. What an absolute nugget.

Saying what? Usually think he talks reasonably.

He talks utter bollocks most of the time tbh

Cheeky bid for Victor Moses? Or Chadli? Joel Campbell?

I still think Vernon Anita should replace him

Jesus Gamez at a push

(In the song)

Isn't Lucas a perma-cripple though?

No he isn't: suffered a couple of bad injuries; other than that he's not an Aarons or SDJ type of injured player

really didnt know where to post this so will may be post it in the championship planning thread also.

 

just needs to be said that we really need our fans to show a bit of humility this season. i'm gonna start taking my kids to away matches.

 

we really show ourselves up with the "s*** ground, s*** fans" and "your support is f***ing s***" chants. absolutley hate them and they need to stamped out. people shouldnt join in and we need to sing over them to drown them out.

 

hate it.

Totally agree; over the last 5 years or so we've inherited a dickhead element to our fan base

Espanyol linked with Mata. Now that would be quite the coup for them.

 

Besides that, they have bought quite well this season, imho. They have got a bunch of players on the cheap that were once very promising but never quite delivered: Baptistao, Piatti, Jurado, Reyes, Roberto... those are very good players for a team in their position, if they can be motivated.

Those signing are kind of like Big Sam's at Bolton; Campo, N'Gotty, Okotcha, Hierro and Djorkaeff

Who are we going to replace him with?  In the Rafa song, I mean.

 

Vernon Anita, Shelvey and Pereeeez

On second thoughts nah

Who are we going to replace him with?  In the Rafa song, I mean.

Vernon Anita, Shelvey and Pereeeez

they have anyone who we could REALISTICALLY ask for in part exchange?

 

I would take Flanagan

Just signed a new contract?

I'd take Benteke 

Be funny if one had come in hard and shattered his knee.

 

WTF?! He seems like a tremendous bloke!

Yep; he's just a class act;

Higuain to Juve?
