The Prophet

Jimmy Nail to make an appearance?

Only thing with that is, if he stays this summer and doesn't sign a new deal, he'll miss out on a fair chunk of change. A new contract with a release clause works for all parties. We retain him for at least another year. We get to guarantee a fixed transfer fee. He gets a pay rise. If him and his agent decide they want to move on, they know we can't price him out of a move.

The mask slips, always had gbandit down as a massive racist.

Apparently members are going to be asked to lie on the ground so that season ticket holders can stand on them to get a better view.

If it meant I could watch him in a black and white shirt for another three years, I'd let him walk for free.

The endorphins when he signs that new contract are going to be off the charts.

Is Fab trying to manifest this move?

With Liverpool, it's more likely that they're putting out news of an ambitious transfer target after a grim couple of weeks. Think "we tried" but with more phlegm and a "la" at the end.

Schar hasn't had a great season by his usual high standards.

Yep, it originated from GiveMeSport's Arsenal writer and was basically a rehash of last summer's news.

Was it Baldwards who reported that there would be attempts to unsettle Isak? Pretty cunty stuff.

Just can't see us targeting Trincao at all.

As a rule of thumb, fans on social media tend to be as thick as pig shit though.

Aye, a similar thought crossed my mind. That way he gets a pay rise and we can't price him out of a move, which is what we'll do this summer.

Wasn't sure where to put this. It's a very good thread on our mate Hugo.

There seems to be a lot of noise from the Liverpool end re Isak today. Fan appeasement exercise after a exiting two competitions and TAA leaving?

The fact that they're talking about a potential part player swap doesn't bode well for their chances of affording him.

A few bits in here on potential targets.

It's just based on Scott Wilson's guesswork fwiw.

Probably. Whether they'd sanction such a move, given the budget they'll be working in and the amount of players they require is a different matter.

Big club debates are a complete waste of energy. Everyone will have their own subjective metrics of what a "big club" is.
