Based on nothing but feels, it’ll be shy of 150m imo.

Thought Al Nasser were preparing a 100m bid for him? edit: Kudus.

Yup. He’s definitely going to Man United isn’t he?

Fair. Didn’t watch that game; what in particular stood out that makes you say that? He’s usually quite decent when I’ve seen him; fairly athletic, tactically adept, unreal engine (heh) and really versatile. Not to mention a very good eye for the final pass. If he’s going for less than 20 odd I can see Howe and co. turning him into a really useful player.

Jack Rudoni just feels so much like a Howe target for whatever reason. Wouldn’t be a bad shout tbf, doubt he’d go for much more than 15-20m as well.

Itk or did you put Edwards’ article on autoread?

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.

Don’t get the hype around Dibling. Super young and some flashy dribbles here and there, sure, but for above 40 or 50m or whatever? That’s a lot of bunce for someone who’d do well to even reach Madueke levels.

Fair. Reading more up on him, he does sound promising. Cant get over how many times he’s losing the ball in all those YouTube videos though. Folks on here would have a fit

They just bought him for 12m and he doesn’t start. Judging by his highlights 30m should be more than enough, surely.

Looking at Jonathan Rowe from Marseille according to some rags. Pretty random link. His YouTube highlights make him look awful though
