Not aimed at you but who the f*** gives a s*** what rooney says? He's incredibly mediocre Of course he is but so was Beckham towards the end but that didn't stop him from being Captain and undroppable by the idiotic management.

On the contrary, i do know.

Where's that from? Wondering that myself, searched twitter and couldn't find anything other than a few fan accounts speaking about it.

:lol:

They already sold him to Madrid no?

Dybala and Higuain is an amazing front 2.

Not really because i never felt like you do at any stage, the letter has nothing to do with it. If i thought he was a cunt a letter wouldn't change that viewpoint. I imagine most people who feel the same way didn't particularly think he was a cunt before or after.

With Deuce here, i really never hated him at all tbh. I don't hate Sissoko either but if i did i would definitely feel a lot more distain towards him than Wijnaldum. You would think the way some feel about them they were the sole reasons we were relegated, but anyway good luck to him i don't really care either way to feel any real emotion about it all. We got a decent amount of money for him so hopefully we can move on now and Rafa can invest it wisely.

I'm yet to be convinced that either Perez or Mitrovic will get that many, but I'm pretty sure Gayle will. Will never understand this tbh, their records were practically identical in the PL and that's all we can base it on really. Considering they have never played at this level before I don't see why you are so convinced they'd struggle and Gayle wouldn't considering his PL record is pretty much the same. Sure you can bring up his championship record but how do you know Perez and Mitrovic couldn't do the same?

Best not to evaluate players on international tournaments anyway, the amount of players who do well in them each time and then do fuck all during the season doesn't bare thinking about it. To me it has absolutely zero relevance.

Benitez has already mentioned that Gayle can play on the wing too, in a 4231 having wingers on both sides isn't always completely necessary. As said before as long as Thauvin stays we are fine there, I think another striker is a lot more likely tbh.

Basically. I'm a lot more concerned that the supply line to the forwards won't be good enough atm, but there's enough time for that to change. I don't see why what we have won't score enough should chances be created, easy to forget how easy it is to score in this division.

Weren't Madrid quoted 60m for him? I don't get the hype. Aye, apparently Juventus were in as well. Can't say I have ever seen him play out of odd tidbits at the Euros myself.

That Andre Gomes lad is going to Barca.

Yes because he played like 7 games I'm sorry that I don't hype every single player based off a few games. Apparently wanted to see a player over a full season before judging him is too much to ask though. That comment sounds bad in isolation without the context though, that's not what I meant in the slightest.

Not sure why you like to twist my words so much tbh, I never said that. I just said he hasn't played enough to determine it either way, never said he's crap or anything just that not even a dozen games way too small of a sample size to determine anything. Considering how many players look great for 6 months and disappear off the face of the planet I don't think what I say is anything outlandish either tbh.

3 plus strikers who can play on the wing would cut it in most situations tbh. Not many teams have 4 natural wingers, it's just not completely necessary. Like I said if Thauvin stays I don't think we need anymore. Rafa has already alluded to Gayle spending some time on the wing anyway.

What Gamez is for, even if Janmaat is sold we don't need anybody for that position.

You can do what if thing with every position though CM is literally the only position where we literally have nobody the rest is a "what if this happens" situation.

Don't really need a winger if Thauvin stays, agree on LB mind. To me creative CM is most important, we have loads of DMs but Shelvey is the only creative CM we have.

Happens every year man. Everyone says how friendlies mean fuck all and yet players consistently get written off or hyped to the moon based on these meaningless games.

Creative midfielder for sure, it outweighs every other need by a significant margin.
