He was all action for Leeds. A while ago now mind.

Barnes is significantly worse like.

It’s only £20m because we can’t negotiate a fair price. We have to activate the release clause because otherwise they would never sell. I’m fairly positive about it, he’s a big presence who can occupy defenders and maybe score the odd goal. Of course in a year’s time I hope he’s the 3rd choice, but needs must at the moment.

They make up quite a lot of our team now, we never transitioned them.

I'd possibly grind out the first half and bring ASM on later in the game when they're tired. There are no good options really.

Yes against Cambridge but no against a PL team. If we don't have him in midfield we'll be overrun.

Yeah, only Trippier should be in the first team long term. A couple of others can stay as back up.

You aren’t asking for quick though, you’re asking for ridiculous light speed quick.

Sounded like that’s what we were doing.

Not sure what working would actually mean for Luke.

Yeah, but I mean the strategy of just having a few very average strikers to always be there to do a job.

Can’t actually walk. Has to eat an apple or ride a bike.

I’m instantly all-in on anyone we bid for TBH

We can drop ASM for a few games, which is needed.

How could we be sure? Has potential, we have cash, get him in if he fits the criteria.

That works.

I always think of Palace as an example around forwards. They have Benteke, Mateta, Ayew and Edouard. All of whom are average to poor, but all can occupy a defender, run about and convert a cross from 6 yards. Barring superstar signings, that’s the kind of setup I would be OK with for a while.

N’ecoute pas, Hugo.

I love this language. What’s the difference between this and bidding? We’re asking if they would sell him and how much it might cost

You'll do for me bonny lad.

It’s just maths, I wouldn’t worry about it.

I don’t particularly ‘want’ Wood but I would snap your hand off for that before Watford.

Very much hope you’re right.

Think proven generally means proven to be good Know what you mean though.

First thing I noticed And he’s tall.
