Wilson

'I've never seen him play so not convinced' This is why we leave it to the professionals.

Nunez pretty much done deal for Liverpool.

I'm under no illusions about him preferring Milan like, unsurprising really. If we do manage to force it through by using our financial weight, I hope he can settle once here because it does feel like he's not keen.

Looking forward to their Vaux outrage when we get a Saudi based sponsor. Eh eh eh?

Fuck that I wasnt everything now although I'm not one of these who stress because we haven't signed 5 superstars before the window opens.

I'm going to be fucked off if we don't sign him despite the fact I'm ignorant as fuck and still don't know a lot about him. I just want Bruno to be happy.

Been doing that since January haven't we? Doesn't seem like anything new.

What exactly is the breakthrough? That he's acknowledged the interest and that he intends to leave?

Wheels are well and truly turning now thanks to our new overlords. Absolutely glorious.

It's fuckin mental isn't it.

It's amusing how much us forcing our way in has pissed them off.

Ahhhhh memories.

Was going to post similar. 'from afar, from afar..... FROM AFAR!'.... Aye aye Dan, you're fooling nobody you little tinker. Really fucking excited by this. Listening to his and Eddies articulate speaking is class. What a change.

Even just that small article gives a damning insight to the place under Ashley. 'Departments hollowed out and corners cut', yet we were constantly told he was doing a good job, any journo could have done a pretty hard hitting piece on the way things were in the club at the time but no, it was easier to sit back and tow the line.

I think it's off tbh.

We managed the Colo and Gutierrez songs, we can do this!

Doesn't it just fit with 'Ekitike bang bang'? Going off my own supposed pronunciation of his name as ekk-it-eeky

Not Toulon apparently

Aye I'm the same... I want him because the gaffas clearly do so willing to bow to their choices, for the first time in years! Also something about nabbing a central defender from under the nose of Maldini and AC Milan feels like a statement, kind of announcing us as serious players.

Scruffs

Think we'll 100% be in for another striker and we need one. This lad is far from a finished article by all accounts, we can't rely on Wilson to stay fit, and Wood just doesnt have the quality, I don't think we'll be resting our hopes on those 3.

On a prospect as well no less. Lovely stuff. I said it months ago and stand by it now, any 'transfer budget' mooted is bollocks, we'll pay what we want for who we want/need and until that's done, there isn't a budget.

I'm absolutely rattled and dying inside at this news. I hope this gets the back page/headline spot of every newspaper/media website that such earth shaking news deserves.
