Was it not because grounds were built over time and when in need of renewal so individuality wasn’t the intention just more circumstance.

Let’s be honest he’s barely played at all but played there against Brentford and West Ham if I recall. Playing centrally for England currently so that’s what made me think he might be that cover you were suggesting we need ??‍♂️

Yeah. As much as I defended Wood and could see the logic in the signing and what he brought to the team at the time and obviously the bonus of a decent fee which made it make even more sense. Even I couldn’t compare the performances and impact between him and Burn. Burn replaces Lascelles in every sense in 12 months unless he’s JL is sold earlier.

Is that not the plan for Gordon?

We rotated too many and Shef Wed were at home in 3rd round of the FA Cup live on TV on a longer unbeaten run than ours even. What did you expect? It was always going to be a tough fixture.

Also the fact he agreed to come to us before the clubs had agreed a fee kinda indicates it’s bollocks ?

Genuine. We were going to take PSG to court as the deal had been done so they give us Ginola for a bargain fee.

Surely their CH with £16m R/C is the smarter move this window.

Don’t think EH would let him leave this summer and especially for that amount. So no. 12 months on possibly.

Good management? Exhibit 1: CHELSEA last season Vs Liverpool.

Inter? Don’t wind them up further ?

Nope. Slob.

Was the right decision. MGW was hardly 4 yards away from the FK. VAR must’ve give it as the replay shows the ref saw everything and played on.

Great little finish. Interesting seeing him play centre forward.

Not disagreeing with this. Just think it depends on your mentality as a player. Me personally I’d much rather fight against Man City and take the title from them than join them and almost be guaranteed it on a plate.

Speaking of Dom… ? ?

Way of the world and why it was always a bit harsh to criticise some of the fees Man Utd used to pay back in the day. If clubs don’t want to sell their prize asset and fan favourite but the player makes it clear he’s happy to go like in this case they’ll always demand above going rate. Let’s see when the deal if it gets done what the actual figures are. Italian media are always going to try and make it look like they’ve ripped us off. Same way our lot will report much lower figures. Often the truth sometimes in between.

I’m the same with bring in our own stars feeling and let them grow with the club.

Agree 100%. Never wanted a midfield made of 3 individual parts as such but 3 midfielders that can do a bit of everything and interchange. I wanted a more technical and mobile Longstaff. Younger than Kovacic. Seems the ideal fit.

£135-150kpw

Definitely. If only to draw out from agents what they want. If Tonali’s representatives see a big deal slipping away it theoretically encourages them to come back to the table with more realistic terms. Watch us sign them both ?
