What are your thoughts on Rafa Benitez, out of interest?

It's definitely hard work mind.

Anyone talking about the transfer window without even referencing the crazy context of Pope, Targett, Tonali, Joelinton, Willock, Anderson, Barnes, Murphy and Wilson all still being out We'd probably not even have had to look at making any signings if we had anything like a normal injury list. Fucking obviously we've had to change course a bit

Every transfer plan in history would have failed if half of the incomings were almost immediately long-term banned/injured, and elsewhere in the squad there were further double-digit long-term absences. It's been a freak season, we don't always have to search for someone to blame.

They'll have to get a move on if they want it done before the transfer window slams shut.

The likes of Onana, MGW and Solanke have established themselves in the PL and you're therefore paying a premium for them, would hope we focus more on players a step further back than that to get some value. Barnes and Livramento were different as they were from relegated clubs and I'd argue those fees were very reasonable. Bowen's worth a ton now but we need to try signing the next Bowen. I'm sure the club are well aware of all of this but I just find some of the links for incomings a bit curious.

Ohhhhh my word

the badge looks wonky n'all

Will definitely need a major rethink once dreamboat Callum leaves.

absolutely pathetic, that

360 means you're double turned off by something iirc.

Problem solved! (allegedly)

We'd definitely need a replacement like, even if it was a stopgap. You need at least 4 wingers as it's the first position you need to use the bench to refresh, and they're the most likely to get knackered with all the pressing they do.

I'm a fan and think he's been really important for us, not just since the goals became more regular but for his energy off the ball in particular. In an ideal world we'd keep him on as a squad player as he'd be perfect for it. But in this annoying FFP world I can deal with Miggy and Wilson leaving if we can replace them. Less so with Trippier but if it happens then fine.

Quick, get Wilson signed up to bet365.

Miggy's not worth £10m though.

I'm not rattled, I'm done with the way you speak to others on here and will call it out when I can be arsed to. We've got quite a good forum here where most people treat others with respect, whereas you choose to be a bellend on the regular. You reckon reasonable people are just going to read that again and again and not take issue? Nah.

Yeah OK you've gone quickly to the laugh and patronise the other poster part. You do this to everyone, it's some sort of personality disorder that we all have to endure. Get fucked

STFU, man. ^ "please stop all this" when others are raising valid concerns. You don't get to regulate the opinions on here, far from it. Tedious as fuck.

No, others are allowed opinions as well.

Cheers Frank.

Christ, the amortisation ultras are out in force again.

Hmm I might get rid of him as well but not sure who for. Annoying cos there were 3 viable midfield options at Arsenal last year but none of them are firing consistently this time.
