Not against this signing but I'm not sure what he'd offer that we don't hope Gordon would eventually offer. Both seem like players of a very similar profile.

We're bigger than Milan. Villareal only want €35m for him too.

Samuel Chukwueze is the one who's caught my eye the most. Tall, strong, quick, powerful, excellent dribbler, very good technically and looks to be a very intelligent player too.

Need more people with composure in the final 3rd. Outside of Wilson and Isak we're painfully short of clinical finishers. Almiron will have another good season imo but outside of him I can't really see another player getting 10+ goals.

Sure there was talk of us wanting 2 elite players so if Szobloszai, Barella and Tonali are the level we're looking at then I think it's safe to say we haven't been publically linked with our next major target.

3 quality signings would be enough with no key outgoings.

£12-15m would be a great price for him. We are a serious club.

Wonder if this was leaked to smoke the Maddison deal out?

Sure Caulkin said the club were consciously using the media to downplay the budget. Whether he's knowingly playing his part or not is up for the debate.

Not sure about his credibility tbh but he's just broke a pretty big news story and his first reply to the story is how he's needs a day off without his phone. I smell bullshit. Plus I'm still not sure what he's got right.

Not sure I agree with this, he called Wood (which I guess he'll have got from Burnley side) before anyone else but I'm not sure what else he's got right? If it was Jason Burt I'd start believing Edward's it's clearly a massive WUM.

Edwards gets fuck all right sadly.

We should not be signing any player with a 20min lowlights vid

But offset against better revenue figures, no?

He single handedly saved us from relegation for 2 years straight and for that alone deserves a run out with us in the CL.

I think he'd improve our team by virtue of being a better finisher tbf. Longstaff missed alot of brillaint chances in the box as well as perhaps not having the composure that could have carved out an opportunity and this guy looks to have that about him.

Owners have said as much, I think.

I think I see a problem here.

I do think we might go for a top class older player in the same vein as Trippier. Can't imagine his influence on the team has gone unnoticed and that will be doubly important next year when we'll be up against it on multiple fronts.

Always look at this and think it's mad how we're actually about 8 goals away from this season being a title run.

Would have taken a Liverpool win if I'm honest. I really really wanted the team to do it in front of the fans and now they can. If ithappens, Monday night is gonna be amazing. Having another team do it for us kinda cheapens it imo. Bring on Monday.

Player of the year imo

How do you fuck up black and whites stripes?! Lifting kit

That is exactly what a lack of confidence can do to a person. A couple inches here and there and he'd have already had a couple goals to his name, which all of a sudden would look like a great return from his limited game time.
