  1. It's owned by the same family so it's not a normal transfer
  2. And that answer to that is during the transfer window and not before it
  3. Few bodies? They've made 3 signings, 1 of which is a kid. And 1 of which was from Udinese. So really it's 1 signing, similar to us
  4. In this situation if he is suspended for Watford as some have suggested then getting him signed in the next few days isn't crucial Obviously there is a separate situation where we ideally need a striker in time for Watford otherwise we'll struggle to score
  5. How on earth can you guarantee that? If you put yourself in Lille's shoes and someone bids 40m for Botman, do you accept it or think "We'll wait, his price can only go up"?
  6. If teams are holding us to ransom what makes you think they would have accepted bids before the window opened? That's illogical
  7. Why would him being Iranian matter? Coutinho for example is awaiting a work permit and Gerrard reckons he could be training with Villa by Wednesday Obviously if we wanted Azmoun for Watford we'd need to get a move on
  8. 1 of their signings was from Udinese
  9. I know a few people had mentioned we should go for Belotti, guess moves like this are not likely to happen until we are safe or promoted
  10. Was Shaw catching Konsa in the face not a foul? Don't think it was even checked was it?
  11. Are we submitting bids in the correct currency?
  12. I'm sure we were linked with him last summer
  13. Almost 7 years ago Man-U paid £50m for a kid that played 70 senior matches
  14. I'd be shocked if we got 4 in this week Think we do need 2 (CB and Striker) as a minimum
  15. If we got relegated and they sold us they'd make a massive loss, why on earth would they do that? Even if we accept they don't intend on chucking lots of money at us and it is indeed a sensible investment which they are seeking a return on, then how is taking a big loss in less than a year on the club fit within that investment?
  16. I don't think he's the answer, wasn't that impressed with him in that run he had in the team team at the end of last season Though a keeper is something we should be looking at as overall the ones we have are not of a good enough standard
  17. It was frustrating to watch towards the end but he set up both Joelinton and Murphy in the first half with decent chances from what I remember
  18. We know he's a shit owner and he was awful for us however Derby are in a very different situation to us, their recent year's have not been great and right now they are in a perilous position They just need someone to clear the external debt and stabilise them so they have a football club for the near future It's possible for him to be the worst owner for us but be an okay one for them
  19. Cantwell would have been more suited to Bruce because being the coaching pioneer that he is, he had us playing with not 1 but 2 false 10's
  20. If it was proposed in advance of the transfer window or in advance of any postponed games then maybe there was a slim chance it could have happened but as it is now it's absurd to think this goes anywhere How does it even work? If we sell 5 players and sign 5 players, are we expected to just play with a reduced squad?
  21. It doesn't matter who we sign they'll spin it to make it out as a bad signing I noticed a few had said we should be signing Coady as he's better suited to what we needed, guess what the narrative will be if we did sign Coady? Yep, he's bang average and we only got him cos the fancier names turned us down
  22. Mackems making stuff up to make themselves feel better? There's a shock
  23. Opens up a squad space I guess (though I also assume we'll be getting a CM as well because otherwise we'll be left short)
  24. Considering our sponsors are likely to be from Saudi I don't think we need to worry about maximising profits and the fact that Man-U fans hate him speaks volumes
  25. I only know 1 who is like the worst of RTG but the vast majority are relatively normal
