I really don't get it like. He seems to vet the info he sources well which means that most of what he tweets turns out true, regardless of whether or not he was ITK or if he just saw someone he trusts tweet it / read it in a reliable paper etc. He sometimes words his tweets in a way to make it sound like he has some secret sources (instead of just saying he read it from another journo on twitter) which is unnecessary but par for the course with his job.

If people didn't repeat other sources we'd be less likely to hear about them, man. Like aye, he's a tap in merchant, but do we need to grief him for it every time he tweets?

Villa first game would be canny.

They haven't been briefed too well mind considering La Repubblica and Galetti are saying completely opposite things

Aye, for all the flirting I would be surprised if Paqueta actually comes here. I think the only slim reason he might is the fact he flopped in Italy a couple of years ago - so there could still be a bit of hesitancy.

So Uruguay will have another insane 30 goal a season forward then.

I think Bruno and Paqueta are a bit above Botman like, Paqueta especially looks like he could play for any club on the planet.

Also Milan's takeover won't be properly completed until September. There's no reason for them to be dragging their heels to match out bid, either they're negotiating with Lille or they aren't. They're hardly going to be like "ah give us a week to think about it mate, cheers"

"Lille are not appreciating the player’s behaviour. Due to the Dutchman’s refusal to join #NUFC after their bid was accepted by Lille" I mean it all seems a bit fanciful like, given Lille went out of their way to keep the cunt 5 months ago.

Assumed the bit in bold and beyond was your own take on it at first, and not something written on an actual news site "Basically" ffs

Paqueta on the right, Maxi/Ekitike on the left, Eriksen behind Joelinton & Bruno. A flat back 4 with Botman given a pair of them running shoes from Zelda. A perfect 114 points.

Use the money saved from signing Eriksen on a free to also buy Paqueta, then just fill Wilson up with PEDs.

A Swiss army knife is shite at everything it tries to achieve so he's probably right.

Basically a Brazilian Zidane. Like literally from what I've seen of him that's basically how he plays (not saying he'll be as good as Zidane)

So if Dean Henderson isn't on our list anymore, which keepers out there would be a good fit for us? José Sá, David Raya or Robert Sánchez seem perfect but would probably all cost a fortune now, Raya and Sá show what you can get for next to fuck all though. So aye, who else is out there?

About 50m seems doable if that's the price. If we land Paqueta, Ekitike & Botman I'm pretty sure we'll win the league like.

Howe knows about the pace of the league and he's obviously well aware of his own preferance for playing with a high line. As much as Badiashile looks the better choice to my completely amateur eye I'm going to assume there's a good reason we're so keen on Botman. If Botman is who we want then we don't want it to fall through man

"The whole of football should get together an ban this so called "structure" of transfer fees. Set the price and stick to it. It's always a gamble with calculated risks so stop mucking about" From the comments Nee botha mate.

Failed a bit at Chelsea but that would be some signing. We'll be after a left footer though.

Be great if we signed a player every day until the season kicks off.

Aye whenever I'm on an NUFC twitter thing there's Villa fans in the comments for some reason trying to gloat about something. Like a Herculanean shouting at Mount Vesuvius.

They did rate him iirc just said he was shite on the ball (but absolutely solid defensively), which might have been down to Smith. Digne could be a great left back in a well coached team, and would definitely be most (non-defensive) managers choice over Targett like

Manquillo is one of the few players we can afford to offload who would actually bring a decent fee. I really wanted him to make a push after the Leeds game but Krafth took over completely. He'd be a decent signing for someone.

Might sound stupid but I prefer this to Lodi as we will still go out and get a LWB at some point (and could still bring in one this window). Letting Target loose seemed pretty mental for that price. Can see him becoming a handy squad player down the line, he would made a brilliant LCB in a 3 you would imagine.
