The Prophet

It's a strange situation. If he is genuinely injured, which I'm doubtful of, it makes very little sense to leave him at home. Unless of course the injury is much worse than is being reported. If he is unsettled though, you'd think his agent would be briefing everyone and his dog. Either way, we're three weeks away from the start of the campaign and ar present Osula is our only available striker. We can't have another week pass by with zero transfer activity.

If he does leave, its absolutely essential it's not to a Premier League club.

Still maintain there's no reason for him to stay at home, unless he's genuinely unsettled. Whichever way you look at it, it's a shambles we're going on our pre-season tour with Osula as our only available striker.

Aye, there's no reason for him not to go, unless he's pushing for a move.

Now that is worrying!

Didn't realise Burnley's PSR deadline was July 31st. Should finally get clarity on this over the next week at least.

Pope was getting back to his best towards the end of last season, but he's still terrifying with the ball at his feet.

To fair, his next club could make or break him.

Still not sure what to make of Sesko. The definition of a player that makes the difficult things look easy, but the easy things look difficult.

Gutted is a bit strong. It'd feel like an overpay for sure though.

He's a tricky one to value. 19 non - penalty goals last season and would fit us like a glove. Plus we're getting into desperation territory. At the same he's 28 and has two years on his contract. Good job it's not my money or my job to put a figure on these things.

They always have been, they're just reported/not reported depending on the agenda being pushed (see Ekitike).

I think we'll end up going there, out of sheer necessity more than anything else.

I'm still very confident Isak stays this summer, I'm less confident he signs a contract than I was a month ago.

We wouldn't.

I bet Ornstein stinks of Richard Hughes tonight. "Sign off with YNWA, Fab would." "Would Hugo ONLY wanted Liverpool do?"

Shouldn't stop him from travelling though. He has no reason not to, unless he's from planet soft cunt.

Liverpool are cunts, they've always been cunts and always will be cunts. It's a different kind of hatred though, they're not doing immense amounts of damage to the game like Chelsea are.

Why wouldn't he? The first actual cause for concern if he doesn't.

Don't think I've ever wanted a club to implode as much.

Is the updste that there is no update?

Was hoping for an update on this today.

The reports tend to run a day or two behind on these things.
