In the last hour on monday I hope we sign some unheard 18 year old geezer from Porto(or something) with bags of skill for £5M, who will make the right wing position his own and become the bargain buy of the season in the PL.

I hope Kelland Watts will be a part of our first team squad next season. Would be good to have some young players as squad players instead of Clark, Hendrick, Gayle etc.

...just to find out that Bruno's in Ecuador.?

€60M when he signed a new contract in 2020. That's about £50M isn't it?

You can't do what the Ecuadorian keeper is doing there!

A box-to-box central defender?!? Why not...?

Where did the Carrasco rumour come from? Any truth in it?

Bruno starting on the bench for Brazil vs Ecuador right now.

I read somewhere there will be upgrades at the Benton trainingground in the summer. At the same time they will start building a new trainingground somewhere else. Didn't say where. Just that it would be a world class one for both A-team and academy.

I think it's right to walk away from this deal. Should have done it a week ago. He's a good defender but, at almost 29, £30M is too much. There must be other defenders out there.

I really hope the PL and the clubs is evaluating the VAR system after this season. Must get rid of it as it makes more damage than good. It's becoming the most unfair ruling system in sports. Could just have the same system as in boxing. One referee on the pitch and three who votes who should be the winner after the game.

Played very good yesterday. More of the same please.

The black kit we played in yesterday looks really nice.

Ed Harrison, yes. His son Neil writes there aswell.

Why not make Almiron part of the deal for Diego Carlos? His agent is making noices that he wants to move and it's said he has admirers from spain.

So Man Utd has never been to the USA sience Glazers bought them? Nor have Liverpool... Man City's never been too Abu Dhabi, PSG never in Qatar? Chelsea in South Korea when sponsored by Samsung. Theese things happen all the time and I don't see what's so strange with that. Would be more surpriced if it didn't happen tbh.

Wich loan deals could improve us untill the season ends? Hearing Choudhury and Loftus-Cheek mentiond today. Would they improve us? Who else could be useful?

Probably the club have given us prmission to talk to the player. A sign the player is for sale at the right price. But we still have to agree a fee with the club if it's to go ahead of course.

Zapata and Lingard would have the attack sorted. Then we need a CM(Fofana?), LB(Gosens?, Bakker?) and a CB(Diego Carlos?, Badiashile?, Ginter?).

Could see a few players leave on loan in the last days of the window. Depending which players coming in I'd say some of Woodman, Clark, Hendrick, Shortstaff, Anderson and Gayle.

Thoose two critical positions being CB, DCM, CM, LB, AMR and ST ?

Yes, we're monitoring!!!? Come and join us!??

Because it's the two positions he usualy play. And I don't think we're gonna play with a LB and a LWB at the same time.

If we sign both Bakker and Gosens, is it a sign that we'll play 4-4-2? With Bakker as LB and Gosens as LW. Maybe that will put ASM as one of two strikers. Could be a good thing as ASM offers nothing in defence and can't play as a lone striker.
