I have a dumb Bruno thing when I FaceTime my brothers and do: Me (Bruno voice): Neek Popp Brother (in a menacing Nick Pope voice): Yesss Bruvvahh! wish I could find the clip though. edit: npw again.

Still think Trafford is more likely. 28m for Laliga’s best keeper in Garcia would be quite the coup though; great distribution and wild shot-stopping. If I had to choose one… Hard to judge goalkeepers but I have a bias against keepers that are overly animated and look like they’re trying too hard. On that very scientific basis I think I’d prefer Trafford.

Super smug to say but I’m glad my wanker radar still works. Guy’s interview was all business speak, deflections, power plays and he just reeked of arrogance. Monaco fans said similar.

That doesn’t even happen with obscure youth signings . Hate this myth that all of our transfers came out of the blue.

Or Burn.

Can people stop trying to sell Gordon ffs.

I’ll say it again. What do people see in Dibling? He’ll be lucky if he gets to Madueke levels imo let alone Mbeumo. Not a lot of player there (right now) for 55m. If Bryan M’s going for sub 60m it’s an absolute no brainer choosing between the 2.

Wish he was better aerially but he’s a fantastic defender and great lad. Only issue would be Parish and what they want for him.

You’d hope so. Sources say Man Utd have 100m to spend; and they’ll be getting another 80m plus from selling Bruno.

Wages doh.

Annoyingly I think Mbeumo goes to Man Utd. Hope I’m wrong.

Hate the idea of spending money on cover players. Buy someone young who can develop into a first team regular (ideally) or get in a freebie.

I did say overpay . Realistically he’s not moving for less than 40 though, regardless.

Howe will get him quickly and show Mitch how it’s done. Too much work’s gone into the deal for them to just abandon it outright. Think we’ll overpay and get him in early for around 50m.

They said they wanted 100m. Now I know Southampton aren’t silly enough to think anyone would pay close to that but it would suggest that’s he’s not leaving for less than 40 odd.
