Said it a while ago i feel we are building our squad akin to the way Liverpool did. Pretty sure they had a window where they wanted VVD all window and it never happened and they waited until the next window rather than squander their money elsewhere. Only difference ability aside is MG and his agent seem like they have a totally different character compared to VVD’s.

What a load of rubbish. Our revenue has increased loads under the new owners. I suspect also we are holding certain deals back until the Man City case results is in. Otherwise you’d of committed to lower sponsorship money. Also you’ve to remember not everyone wants to be associated with Saudi.

Ah… what a half decent Euros can do for a centre half’s price tag these days…

We will spend if we can. However the new rules are double edged. If you waste the money it will mean sales required next season. Absolutely nothing to do with the clubs ambition. We’ve allegedly being trying to break the clubs transfer record for the last three weeks. Which would Max our allotted spending this window (£110m approx).

The club does not lack ambition. It lacks the ability to spend the money it has at its disposal due to rules that have recently been introduced. Big difference.

For all the negative ninnies. We might end up breaking our transfer record this window. Here’s to the journey…

Was it not reported Mitchell had already started working for us on the quiet before he was announced officially? Olise’s price depended on which club was bidding. Think Bayern got him for £45m plus bits. Other various teams was more. Some teams the release clause didn’t even apply to. Was a very complicated transfer hence the delay confirming it.

If thats the case which makes sense then it’s a none news story. However thats not what the article states. I agree it seems strange but article does suggest we are in for a windfall. It’s Ryder mind

I read it as 30% of the profit sell on figure. So £50m minus £6m = £44m… 30% = £13.2m surely…

30% from Toney sale apparently. Could come in handy! https://www.chroniclelive.co.uk/sport/football/football-news/40m-move-chelsea-provides-newcastle-29817546?utm_source=twitter.com&utm_medium=social&utm_campaign=sharebar

This 👏

Exactly. We get a winner (which we could’ve easily) and the narrative is completely different. Sunday’s performance wasn’t any different to last season’s down there or the season before. I’d actually argue it was the best of the three possibly. Good end to the window and the narrative will change quickly enough.

Ipswich’s even worse if you’ve not seen it yet.

3-0 was his prediction.

Liverpool’s pre-match build up always seems to get a lot of special uninterrupted coverage.

I think it was one of those that if it hit his head first then same part of arm/shoulder they possibly give it. However the arm was the only part of the body it touch and also the only part of his body ahead of Burn so can see why they made the call they did.

We did when we finished 4th many games early on. Judge us after Everton away.

I’d stick Hall on for Longstaff.

Looks like we are running in mud. Especially in midfield. A very typical Bournemouth away performance so far. Hopefully we wake up second half. Got to start winning our 1v1 battles. Gordon’s form away from home continues to disappoint.

I know he doesn’t. I think he will this season after what happened last season with injuries. Especially as Kelly’s fitness possibly needs to be managed carefully going off his record. The other reason is they are very different types of fullback and can see Hall suiting certain opponents much better. Just a hunch 🤷🏼‍♂️

Can see Hall playing mainly at SJP and Kelly away from home by and large depending on other teams wingers.

I see Southampton have moved the away fans. Wonder what the reasons are. Psychology I’m guessing.

Will be interesting if they cup tie him next week.
