Ugarte was waiting on the Joao Neves deal completing. I would expect us to push hard for that over the next week. McTominay and Wan Bissaka need to be sold for De Ligt and Mazraoui to come in. All personal terms already agreed with all the players. I do think they'll all arrive before the end of August. Ugarte is essential though.

Without the injuries it's completely different mind. Not sure Ten Hag has ever been able to select his first choice eleven. Could be an interesting season. Having Zirkzee as a backup striker is certainly much better than having an injured Martial though.

Feel free to point out where I said that for the preseason games we've won. Between ourselves and Liverpool there were probably 5 or 6 players who actually start games. Just a fitness exercise. We've a glorified friendly next Saturday for the first teamers.

Is it just me or have the preseason games this year had more coverage/interest. They mean absolutely fuck all.

Almost a full strength Newcastle thrashed by a Japanese side. Will Howe last 10 games with Southgate waiting in the wings?

Nicky Butt.

De Ligt is <£40m. Guehi will cost a minimum of £60m. I can't see us being anywhere near it.

If that's the case you should get a decent fee off Brighton for him in a couple of years.

It could be on the last page, but you'd still go looking for it. Plus, it's Big River's fav thread.

We're all moving towards the same page now.

You're using Ten Hag's word as gospel now, so if you want to play that game we can dig up some of his other quotes. Maybe start with the ones about how annoying Newcastle are and your shithousing tactics. Reverse checkmate. I'm fucking class at chess and all.

He was talking about Chelsea.

£325k a week as per Capology, which is never wrong when it comes to verified wages.

McTominay going to end up going for the same price as Gallagher, which is insane to me.

Best this sort of stuff is contained in here, don't you think?

Morning Rod. Hope you're having a good day so far.

Can you leave my thread please.

I'm working mate.

Probably, but I didn't forsee our unprecedented injury crisis. We had the better season though.

We do. City Arsenal Man United Liverpool Newcastle Chelsea Ten Hag wins the Europa League to make it 3 trophies on the bounce and gets sacked the next day.

The trophy streak is in jeopardy. I really don't know if I can go 6 years without a trophy again guys.

Your lists don't include preseason injuries. But yes, we are comparing different shades of shit, just our shit was slightly more stinky.

He won the FA Cup, which is arguably the biggest of the lot.

We've been over this 54. It's all up above.
