Kid Icarus

It'll be alright probably.

That's true, but in fairness we had a lot of things to address and it's the only thing that hasn't been addressed. We didn't always get who we wanted but we've got players in at GK, CB, CM, RW that we've known we've needed and also got rid of the deadwood The multiple fumbles and no Wilson replacement overshadow that somewhat but I'd find it easy to look on the bright side. The Isak saga nukes everything if we capitulate though.

We've had a good window at the same time though, it's mental, all I keep thinking about is that expression "but apart from that, how was the play Mrs Lincoln?" and that the play was canny.

It does, but then without it everything is different and we probably don't even have Howe, Isak et al in the first place.

Something that we're nowhere near doing now or in the next year or two.

Saying that we're allowing it to happen without getting another striker. I really hope that's wrong, my head will be on fucking Mars

PSR doesn't dictate that a player with 3 years on his contract has to go specifically to Liverpool specifically now for £20m under the asking price and potentially no replacement in place.

Why are people jumping to thinking Howe has something to do with this?

No other striker in and 130m (if that) is the reaction I think.

I'd say what Brentford did is being in control of things. We're quite a way away from that.

Seeing what Liverpool have been like with their other bids it wouldn't surprise me if they only go to 120 tbh.

Yeah. It's why he can't ever be taken seriously, including now. He's got that perfect mix of being arrogant about his incompetence

Would honestly take a straight swap

Hope has been saying everything tbh. I've watched him say both 'if they can get a replacement' and 'even if they can't get a replacement'

"Crucially, it is also thought the deal would not be contingent on Newcastle being able to sign a replacement." Disgraceful if true. The bit about the offer being too good to turn down as well

I can't take him seriously either way tbh, he's useless

IIRC we voted for it?

Ah okay, apologies.

By come around to it I mean believing it, that's all.

Probably won't come around to the idea that it's not happening unless we've heard nothing by half 6 tomorrow tbh. Definitely feels like something will happen tonight or in the morning.

Think it's because that's the sort of thing that gets said in May rather than August.

Not sure how that's real if the IG story from his barber has him pulling into Isak's drive

Wouldn't say nothing today until its over tbh, the usual journos usually do their thing at 10 and 11.

Gyokares looks genuinely too fat, not just saying that.
