From Reddit a couple months ago: Whatever club signs him can consider themselves very lucky. 10M would be an absolute steal. He truly has the potential to become one of the best central defenders in the world. The past two seasons he has been our best player by a mile. Basically every Anderlecht supporter agrees with this. He is strong in the air, he is incredibly fast and almost impossible to beat 1 vs 1. He also has good technique and passing for a central defender. His games in the champions league this season confirm this. About his weaknesses : Sometimes he tend to lose a bit of concentration and he can also be a little reckless at times. EDIT : If he goes to Porto I am pretty sure he will be a regular starter together with Maicon.

Didn't realize we were linked with him in January. Excited about this if true. Could do with another one.

I'm scared to ask, but what could that possibly be based on?

That's ludicrous. I think more people on here think we'll be fighting relegation again than anywhere near the top 6.

Italian football writer. No idea if he's legit. @EmaGiulianelli: Ultimatum Newcastle to Mitrovic: Sunday deadline.

I'm all for preseason results, especially early on, that highlight any defensive shortcomings.

Glad Obertan was captain in second half. Means Colback as captain was meaningless.

Sand clock

Pound-for-pound is all we care about at the end of the day. If identical players were available for the same price and one had good character we'd probably take him. But I doubt we're putting a monetary premium on it.

Someone updated his wiki.

Really like McClaren, which is a welcome change. The rest of them can go fuck themselves, including VV.

The Clippers are owned by f***ing Steve Ballmer? And he's camped at this poor guy's house f***s sake, they must be having a great time over there.. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wvsboPUjrGc Ha, yeah he paid $2 billion for them last year. And he's a GIF making machine: http://stream1.gifsoup.com/view3/20150108/5159149/dancing-to-fergie-o.gif

This makes the Ben Arfa saga seem tame... http://probasketballtalk.nbcsports.com/2015/07/08/report-deandre-jordan-tells-clippers-he-will-re-sign-with-them-but-they-arent-leaving-until-he-does/

It's definitely time for a Winegum thread.

Pretty sure he worked at IBM, so a decent salary, and if that house is in NC it's not nearly as expensive as you might think.

Can't believe how many people still underrate Cabaye in his time here. He was our most important player.

Pearl Harbor has been trending on Twitter, so you're far from alone.

Good goal. Solo is a bitch so I don't mind if she gives up a few.

What does one have to do with the other?

Holy shit.

Japan's defending has been comically bad.

Are you suuuuuuure?

Yeah, I don't find him offensive at all. I mean, his game is offensive. But he seems a normal guy who tries his best, he's just not good enough and should have been shipped out awhile ago. That's not his fault.

Totally agree. Some of the players that look somewhat impressive on all these very average teams would have been dreadful in our team last season. I expect significant improvement from many of our players, Anita and Cabella especially.
