Manxst

All affiliated with the Mackems. Milanese in peyce and all that.

They’ve spent loads for the past two or three years iirc. Watkins, Mings, Wesley, Traore, Buendia, Bailey, Ings have all been hefty fees.

Not if we go the Villa route and pay less than half their wages whilst on loan (Umtiti, Ramsey etc)

Vote Billy Pilgrim for DoF!

Still on bail and under investigation for sexual assault, and also away at AFCON. Don’t want him this window at least, thanks.

Howe said this morning that Trippier was going to play in it

Can’t see him replacing any of Man City/Chelsea current CMs in all honesty. But if he does, I’d be happy with Kante/Jorginho etc!

Good job we’re literally as far away from beggars as you could possibly get then! Digne would be good, but if he doesn’t want to come, we would have a wealth of other options (like Tagliafico) that would.

Not being played by PSG- lots of completion for his place. Wants game time and PSG would let him leave.

He apologises to Rafa, trains hard and hopes to get picked ahead of the new lad, then leaves in the summer.

Or with Chilwell out for the season, he thinks he’d be first choice LB for 6 months and so force his way into being the French WC LB.

Been rumours for years about him, but certainly in the last few weeks there have been reports…eg.: http://www.football-oranje.com/aston-villa-and-newcastle-join-the-race-for-tagliafico/

Yeah… lower league…cup game…etc…but I would consider Watford as a must win (and CAN win) game. If any new signing is match fit, it’d be daft not to play them, considering any signing is going to be an upgrade in what we already have.

Howe said Trippier is playing against Cambridge (I think?) . I think if they’re fit, they’ll play.

Maybe the journos haven’t got a clue and make up the figures…? ??‍♂️?

Digne has officially asked to leave Everton.

Yep. In before Watford imo.

Louie Barry!

They’re paying less than 50% of his current wages. He’s going there because of Gerrard and the CEO, and because he’s been injured/crap for the last two years.

Turned them down in favour of “go play!” tactics and “dust worself” team talks.

U21s (like Botman) don’t have to be registered so it doesn’t have to be 6 for 6

So is Dembele, but it’s been suggested that he would be keen. Not all ‘elite’ players will say no just because of our league position. If Barca suggest they want to push him out due to finance, then it might sway his mind.

Shite….I overlooked him for some bizarre reason!! ??‍♂️Just felt like we’d been stuck with Bruce forever!

Or an Ian Rush/John Barnes combo.
