Ashworth found out he was leaking info and sacked him maybe

I've a feeling the first time we'll hear is when the medical is booked or they announce a signing

He must have, him and Bruno have bough a semi detached house next to each other and built a hatch in the living room so they can alternate who makes the tea.

I imagine one of the first things on Staveley list would be to change from barclays.

Some people, especially on twitter see this as a bsd thing which it's not. It could actually be that they've decided to drop and extra 150 m on players this window

Well put

140, PIF stuck in 40 after the takeover as well

Man city did this last year https://find-and-update.company-information.service.gov.uk/company/00040946/filing-history

Yep, that's what I think

It could be that we couldn't agree terms on structure payments over time. If it's paqueta for example that would make sense as Lyon need the cash now as they are fucked.

So, Paqueta, Diaby and Isak you say?

Well if you believe what the morons on the other thread are saying we've taken out a loan as PIF aren't investing in the club. Which is utter bollocks. We've taken it as all organisations do to manage cashflow until they've got the sponsorship deals sorted as they need a long term sustainable method of putting money into the club.

I don't think we'll see any further investment from PIF until next summer once the sponsorship deals are sorted. I expected that all along.

They don't thats just when you take money out. PIF may insist on that however.

Exactly

Anyone who reads anything into this knows fuck all about how organisations operate.

Reminds of that season Fulham went down.

It's just normal behaviour for any organisation.

I think Bruno struggled because the midfield was so poor first half. I think Joe is trying a bit too hard. It'll be fine. I do think we actually need another CM now though along with a striker and a winger. I don't think we'll get all 3. I think we'll get 2.

He needs another loan. I think that's why Eddie started him tonight. Nothing against him, he needs a loan a championship club to progress. It's probably not that easy to go from league 2 to playing an excellent champions league side.

I was about to change it but our glorious admins already have. I dunno about loaning him out. Anderson isn't ready and we should with him and I think he will become a great player but Manquillo seems to have caught whatever Fernandes has so unless you want Ritchie as 2nd choice left back, I would keep him and Loan him out in January if he hasn't played enough.

Strangely no, but he did play for RB Leipzig so will probably become the best left back the world has ever seen.

He needs to go on loan to a Championship club. I trust Eddie though, whatever he thinks.

I think this lad look's decent, he seemed calm, shouting out instructions at points. could be one to watch.
