Fully agree, but we'd be a Schär injury away from a bit of a nightmare. In an ideal world we'll get both.

And nightmares of when we equalised in stoppage time and proceeded to lose 3-1.

Just fuck off.

Someone utter shit at home, please.

No fan should be giving any player shit inside the ground or to them personally off the pitch. Anyone who does is a bell end of the highest order so it'd he outrageously lifting if he does get flak. I'd like Almiron replaced and have done for a while. He brings an engine and work rate but little attacking output; he had the same number of PL goal involvements last season as Dan Burn. Jacob Murphy got 1 more assist than him last season (7) than he's managed in his 5 and half years at the club (6). His numbers before and after his purple patch suggest there is little chance that he replicates it. Great servant to the club but he needs upgrading/moving on. He's a 30 year old who'll turn 31 this season with 2 years left on his contract. We'd do well to get north of about £10m-£12m for him imo.

Their fans are odd, mind. Self appointed sanctimonious arbiters of good taste in PL football all the while never amounting to anything in their history bar a 3rd place finish in 1991. The way they went on about Pardew, flinging coins at Coloccini, that odious meff TalkCPFC or whatever he's called on the app inspired by a bird, the recent online arrogance because they won a few games at the end of last season. And the games against them are almost always dull as fuck. Not for me, Jeff.

Same. We last signed a recognised RW 7 years ago, man.

Scored.

Elias Sorensen up top for Portsmouth. Wew.

You know me far, far too well.

Feels like it's been a bit of an odd window all round. We're 8 days away from the season starting and have made no signing that improves the first XI yet. If I was told that after the final game at Brentford last season I'd have been absewlewtly fewmin. But it feels like outside of West Ham, Chelsea and Villa, no one in the PL has made any real significant signings yet also. At least to me anyway, I try to avoid Twitter and football transfer news given how toxic it is at the best of times so may be wrong. Regardless, if we can get Guehi in (whom I don't really think is worth ~£65m personally especially with 2 years left on his deal, got to trust the club that it doesn't blow a big PSR sized hole in us if comes in) plus a top quality RW I'll be delighted. Regarding the latter, we signed Isak on 26 August, after the 3rd game of the season. Plenty of time to go and no need to panic. Yet.

Nelson as our main RW signing would be incredibly underwhelming. Really think we can do better. Thankfully the source for it appears rubbish.

4 goals and 7 assists in 35 appearances/1,557 minutes.

Got one. Decent availability in the Milburn and Leazes. Fucking 81 quid for a seat in the Platinum Club. Outrageous. Helps PSR, though.

What I'd give for this unfunny, boring fucking cuck to be gone from this earth. (The sloth looking cunt on Twitter, not Fak)

As much as I wish this was the case, that account is a wind-up account; an Everton fan that masquerades as a journalist. Been doing it for ages now.

Leicester away. Lost 3-0 and ended up with 9 men. Awful, awful days.

Steven Taylor v Liverpool when we lost 0-6. Was Forest at SJP.

Can't speak for Weezertron but for me relative to the teams we're trying to compete with now, I'd say an upgrade is due. Especially given Murphy was the last recognised RW we signed. 7 years ago. And I like Murphy as an option/backup. Still think he's our best crosser of the ball, which probably speaks volumes as to why we're due a RW tbh.

Would really like him here but not sure he's a £60m+ player. Hopefully won't leave a debilitating hole in the budget if we do pay that much.

Be chuffed with this. Hope there's enough for a top quality RW on top.

Nowt for me again.

Sack whoever thought of that lifting nonsense (if true). What an awful deal.
