Hyperbolic wankery, but lush lush hyperbolic wankery.

Again, it's unbelievable that we'd be arguing over who to retain or drop in a midfield comprising Joelinton, Shelvey and Willock right now - just a few months back, most of us couldn't wait to see the backs of all three! If we intend to sit deep and compact and catch them on the break (which appears to be the right way to deal with Villa's tactics), then I'd actually agree to have Bruno come in alongside Shelvey and Joe - thread passes to ASM and Fraser in the first half. Willock comes in in place of Fraser in the second, when legs are tired. Just need to explain to him that it's all tactics. He can console himself with a goal.

Makes me wonder - do they have a translator for him on the sidelines? I imagine Beeg Jow being his translator anytime else. His confidence is great to see, though. Good management too, to bring him on when we are leading comfortably and Everton were already blowing out their arses. It's a very "Man City" thing to do and great to see from us, given that we hardly have the luxury to do so. Ease him into matches and get him used to the different energy of the league.

It's pronounced "Ungh" though your nose, like "Eng" without the "E" sound.

C'mon Eddie, please keep us up. My August will be totally fucked for workplace productivity.

A stupid cheap shot predicated on the premise that Saudi women have no equality = Saudis condone violence towards women, I assume.

In the "Premier League vs Newcastle" world, that would've been chalked off as an offside, nailed on.

The more logical possibility is for Dembele to also mutually terminate his contract like PEA had done, and thereafter sign for us. Barca wants him gone anyway. All pie in the sky, either scenario.

I always wanted a Chinese National player on our books!

Fuck it, just get Zapata to "do a Neymar" and "buy out his own contract"

Diego Costa, just a few posts up.

When your Shefi Kuqi in 2022 is Diego Costa

Bruno is the key signing here. If he can command the midfield such that players like Willock, Shelvey and even Miggy or Fraser can get up the pitch without shitting their keks, they all have goals in them. The most money spent by any club in a January window, more than Ashley ever spent in 14 years, who am I to moan?

Just bloody take Origi at this rate, we only have a few hours to negotiate a deal ffs

Wonder who's gonna be our Will Grigg? But better of course.

oG eW ereH!

Origi and Mavididi still doable. Ousmane Dembele, Darwin Nunez and Gabigol Barbosa if our owners say "fuck it" and splash out. But obviously, time's running out for options an ocean away.

What's going on with Dele Alli then? Still up for grabs?

Best case scenario is that we have someone else come in out of the blue, Lingard signs for West Ham, and his contributions there lose Manu the last European spot.

Fly his entire family over and comp his dad's wages then

At this stage, if Reims is in any way receptive (which they clearly are), then it's as good as done IMHO.

Looking at the stats, I want him here more than ever.

“Five players, Jeremy, five? That’s insane.”

With Targett and Ekitike, that’s six players in the door. Why not go all out and replace all eleven of our current first team
