Why would Matip fancy that? No player will take a "pay as you play" deal anyway.

What an excellent few days for the club, offloading Pivas & Lewis then announcing this. Well done to all involved. Oh aye, and three points against those slugs on Sunday too. Happy days

If his contract expires in 2027 he'll likely be away at the end of this season so they get maximum value. Should be a handy £15 million for them.

And the lack of an announcement is due to the shitty transfer window and negative press we've been receiving off the back of it.... I bloody hope not.

Would be the most pointless sale ever.

I wonder how long they're going to be stuck with Jadon Sancho for. Insane that they looked at his time at Man Utd and were encouraged to sign him. I know he had a decent stint with Dortmund but you can't ignore his failure at Man Utd. He seems so fragile mentally too, just what they need when they've got one of the coldest managers the PL has ever seen

I'd chuck in a daft bid in January tbh.

Oh good, here comes Harry for more lols

That's shite from De Ligt

Ouch.

Assist or not, he did well for their goal yesterday.

As if he was in the world cup squad. Just watching MotD and he was beaten to an aerial ball by Saka ffs

Just don't be a prick and if the bloke clearly can't be arsed with the interrogation then leave him alone

So sad 😞

Never implement that, thanks

Read that line and stopped. The last 2 years have been about as far from Mike Ashley as you could get.

What's your point? It could have been far worse. We didn't actually sell AG fwiw. Some people are going on like he's about to chuck himself off the Tyne Bridge. We offered him to Liverpool for a crazy amount which they turned down. We value him more than Liverpool do - why would he be upset with that?

Anyone genuinely rating this window a 1 or a 2 hasn't got a clue what could be around the corner. Imagine next year the Saudis sell to some chancer and we lose Bruno, Isak and Gordon in the same window whilst bringing nobody in. That's a 1/10. Not holding onto your stars and slightly improving the overall playing squad ffs.

5/10. Its nowhere near as bad as a lot of people are making out. It could have been so much worse. The fact that we held onto all of our star assets has to count for something. We strengthened in multiple positions at the back with a good free transfer and brought in an exciting young forward who can also cover multiple positions (I think). More academy players brought in too for future PSR shenanigans. It's a shame we couldn't sign a purple on the right wing but at least we didn't just randomly pluck any old knacker who was available to us or someone we'll struggle to offload in a year or two. Roll on Spurs

Cool.

Would you rather he didn't try to engage with the fans and collectively treat us like the spoilt little cunts we are coming across as? Yes, you'd rather he signed some players, I know.

They could turn out to be excellent signings though... Kelly is a good player and he's come on a free, that's a good deal.

It almost like you're choosing to be negative here

Same. I like the fact that we aggressively pursue players we actually want and don't have a scattergun approach. Yes, we need to cast our net wider but I'm happy that we seem to do our due diligence properly.
