It's done.

Our best signing is an unknown. Hard to tell how it will pan out. We at-least have two strikers now. For a team who just won it's first trophy in god knows how long, in CL again, wanting to kick on. Letting one of your two world class talents leave to a rival, for well under the going rate is pretty poor form. I'd go 6 as it stands right now, mainly due to the optics.

I want to see him stay and see his sad little face playing for his none favourite team, picking up his paltry 120k a week. Sell him in January - fuck him.

Did we buy him from N-Sync?

Looks lost and erratic in everything he does. Number 3 Striker or backup on the wing, for me.

Is he any better than Longstaff? I just don't see it. So sluggish and always play the safe ball. Needs to go out on loan - Hope I'm wrong but I don't see the hype, actually think he's worse now than his debut.

Cant stand this smug fucker.

Send the fucker on loan to Gateshead or Saud til Jan. This is about principles and setting the tone, on how we operate. It's been a orchestrated plan to bully us and it's completely fucked our pre-season, dropping 5 points in the process. He's a fucking sly, disingenuous rat and needs to be made an example of. Rant over!

Just in from work - Slot comments have really wound me up today. Who the fuck does he think he is. Definitely wouldn't sell Isak to them now - fuck them! and him! sly fuckers!

Great to be back in amongst the big boys - some great moments and nostalgia in there. Bobby Robson ties in PSV and FCB and we invite our Bilbao friends back Exciting!

Looks fantastic, obviously a unit but quite elegant and graceful with it. His finishing looks varied, composed and clinical. Also has a hammer when he fancies. Can see the Berbatov comparisons more than crouch - Hope he's a success. Very excited to see him in with he other units we are building a team from.

lol put the match on after reading this, fucker scores 2. 100m now

Not sure he cares bout anyone but himself tbh.

I attended his course Old fucker!

haha - Agree, but is he 60m better? He's worth about 15m looking at that video.

Rather Vardy until christmas than this bloke - looks bang average.

Nee strikers, still no one with any sort of creative guile, it's pretty much run at 100mph and relentless power. Not sure where the quality and clinicalness comes from with no sukly swede up top.

From my 3 minutes of intense scouting. He looks like a more mobile, slimmer and younger Lascelles. Good on the ball? I'm not sure, Schar levels of hollywood balls? No! not from my 3 minutes.

One last point - I see Howe as the magic sauce. Our advantage - how he improves players. So I'm sure any signing will be surprisingly better than we see them now. The system is key and how each player plays in that, mean's I have confidence in whoever he picks to come in. I just wish he would take a gamble on foreign talent more and improve that...

If we pay anything over 35m for Jackson we're doomed. If its the 80m touted and we let Isak go like soft shites for anything under 140m, we're idiots and the game is fucked. For the record, I think Jackson, would do ok in this team. I also think McGinn would be a good short term support in midfield. A safe head to drop in post CL games to rest the trio. I would not be paying anymore than the 12m Longstaff went for though. Overall, this window has been a car crash, its predictable, so fucking slow and the same list Howe had in his interview hitlist of players I imagine. To someone else point above, it just seriously lacks any sort of creativity or variety.

Hope he chokes on some spaghetti, the googley eyed prick.

A shambles, no other words for it. Groundhog day, log in, check on if we'e close - we're not. Only to see Chelsea signed another player overnight. We're the sloth of the football world.

Move on.

Comes across so well, good luck to him, seems's like a good lad and will fit right in.

Tell them they have til Monday 9am, then walk away. Fuck the lot of them - it's relentless shite! Go and buy Watkins and get on with the season.
