  1. Wouldn’t put too much stock into Italian media sources tbh.
  2. PSG are getting annoying now. Too late you’d imagine though; he’s either ours or Milan’s.
  3. Always have done for whatever reason. Stopped for a while when they were shit but back again when there was something to gloat about.
  4. Leicester won the league…
  5. Need to wrap this up quick before they start making new nonsense rules to protect the cartel.
  6. Spurs supposedly being in the ‘big 6’ is a fucking joke.
  7. I’m weirdly optimistic that we’ll get Eriksen.
  8. I’d rather we signed another quality midfielder than another striker: either someone on the right of a 3 (pushing Bruno back) like Paqueta/Fofana etc. or a solid athletic dm like Philips/Sangare.
  9. Always found it ridiculous that, under Ashley, we had a clear “buy young undervalued prospects and sell them on for big profits” policy but never made any attempt to hire the right personnel to see it through. Dan has shown previously that he can achieve success under that same model. Excited to see what he can do with us if the remit is indeed to make us serious players in the league.
  10. We’re actually pretty well stocked for back-ups currently aren’t we? Lewis, Dummett, Burn, Manquilo, Krafth and Ritchie could all play there . Obviously some will have to be moved on…
  11. One thing I’ve learned from this saga is how petty Milan fans are and that most of them and their journalists have a massive chip on their shoulder when it comes to the PL. Well, I guess I’m pretty petty myself so I’d love us to sign this lad just watch their collective outrage.
  12. Looks clean and simple. Really like it.
  13. I’d have DCL over Nunez all day long tbh.
  14. Ecstatic to have 2 very competent workaholics at the club after years of having lazy wasters like Bruce and Charnley stealing a living. We’re actually attempting to be a professional outfit now and it’s amazing to see.
  15. Reckon by the end of the window we’ll see something like: Targett, Botman, Ekitike, Sarr and (hopefully) Eriksen. With one of Henderson/a CM/ another striker depending on how much we can bring in via player sales.
  16. Read ages ago that Man Utd had a 120m budget this summer. With having to practically replace half their team, I think we may have a chance. Not that I’d advocate spending more than 45m on him…
  17. Eriksen would be an amazing bit of business. Hope we’re not shooting ourselves in the foot by keeping to a strict wage cap though; if we’re truly wanting to compete with the big boys, we need to start acting like it especially with deals like this.
  18. His highlights make him look like younger Szoboszlai.
  19. It’s fairly obvious he’s stalling us out as we’re not his first choice. Hope PSG’s poor track record for bringing promising youths into the first team picture will make the lad see sense. Would be a blow to lose out on 2 priority targets this early.
  20. Meh, bit of a PR slip-up having our owners name-check this guy and then not land him. I’m sure we’ll make a play for Ake now, despite Man City’s crazy valuation. For similar money he’d be the better bet, at least in the short-term.
  21. For under 30m, he’d be a decent pick-up imo. Liverpool still looking at him as well, which is a good sign considering their recruitment record.
  22. Controversial opinion I suppose, but I really don’t rate Dubravka. Henderson would be a massive upgrade imo.
  23. If I was going to make a wild guess based on absolutely nothing it’d be someone like Florentino from Benfica. Young like-for-like Hayden alternative.
  24. Thought he was Palace bound?
