The hardest lad and the biggest lad, give him a decent beating, sensible.

Aye that is a brilliant sign if true. His agent could be pumping Romano full of discontented news already.

What I will say is that I still find it refreshing that the club do at least know which positions we need to fill and attempt to fill them. Quite rare in my life that you feel the club are actually going after the positions we need at pretty much exactly the time we need them. We can't get them to join obviously, but that's the next step in our evolution.

He was never going straight into the squad, question is what happens with his conversations with the regime.

At this point everyone is so hysterical that anyone we don't sign is class and anyone we can/might sign is shite. Could be correct, who knows.

Just as well we didn't get Sesko and Thiaw, the pronunciations would send us over the edge.

No it doesn't. If that is our option we won't sell Isak. We're bad at signing players but we're not kamikaze.

He's that bad is he?

I love 90s footballers confirming our transfer dealings. Next, Franck LeBoeuf tells us the bid has been rejected.

Yes, yes there is. The narrative only serves them so IMO it can fuck off. There are very specific conditions in which we can even consider selling Isak. Otherwise he’ll need to strap on the black and white and get to work.

The language of transfer twitter is hilarious. Cliches defined by people who don’t speak English properly.

I’ve never heard of him or seen him play, so can’t help you there.

I think the long term is still good, it's more the medium term I'm worried about because our executive structure fell apart. On a long enough time horizon, we're going up.

Well we know he doesn’t want to be here. But he could learn to accept it after a few weeks back with the lads. Of course the start of the season is gone, it’s about the longer view now.

They definitely have several players that we could use, especially CBs. Not that I’d love to give Chelsea £150m.

I guess they would be invited, yep. People can’t just rock up.

Surely we knew he wasn’t going straight back to training with the team

I wouldn’t want that personally. I think it has to be one of the level of Jackson/Wissa and one of a higher level. Otherwise Isak has to stay.

Jackson would be a decent signing but we wouldn’t be able to let Isak leave based on just him.

He’s a bladdy genius.

I'm not thinking about the start of the season TBH, I'm thinking about the close of the window.

Yeah this hasn't happened.

He can barely sprint, we aren't signing him.

Last thing I'd want is to experience it again.

Now you've stumped me
