Would prefer to keep Lascelles but if he wanted to go in order to get more games then fair play to the lad, he’s earned it

I’ve made sad peace with this one

Sporting directors, worth their weight in gold eh?

He’s out of contract next year, he gone

Aye, “tell you what. We’ll sell you for below two-thirds of your value. You don’t have a release clause but you’ve earned it lad. Tell you what, if a really respectful club comes in, you can go for under £100m. Go tell your agent and brief Fabrizio please”

Yup

Needs to look at himself first, then his agent and then Liverpool for buying his replacement and lowballing. He’s probably in the first stage of grief right now so won’t be able to think clearly for some time yet

Still time, don’t think it’s guaranteed Willock is here at the end of the window. If we can get him on the pitch and he doesn’t shatter or play appallingly I think we could get a taker before the window closes

Wonder what this window might do for Neave’s prospects. Wouldn’t be at all surprised to see him get decent minutes in the cups and if he plays well he might get some in the league

Clearly wants to go and is trying to force Marinakis’ hand

Really? Looked like an abomination during his time with wolves

Show a little more respect to one of the North East’s finests

This was the reaction

Depends really, there’s a lot of extra politics at play, e.g. them going for Ekitike, us not having a replacement etc

Good news (insert joke about wages here)

Will never ever forgive this cunt for the damage he’s caused this football club

Hope Nuno’s played him like a fiddle

No chance that happens in my opinion

Who are intermediaries? People employed by the club but not officially part of the recruitment team? Surely not outsourcing to people for the first discussions?

Can honestly say I’ve barely ever watched him play so have no take on this other than I think the deal will be a lot easier to do than Wissa

Think his career has been derailed by injuries and he doesn’t suit the physicality of the premier league. He’s a really good player or was before the injuries

When respect FC come calling it’s the honourable thing to do to drop your asking price by a third, especially if it’s near the end of the window and you can’t get replacements

Those years hanging out with Saul paid off

A lot of these clubs I couldn’t have cared less about in the last few years but didn’t actively hate them. However, Brighton, Palace and Brentford especially are fucking rancid the way they carry on in the transfer market. Pathetic no mark clubs that need to be fucked off out the league as soon as possible
