  1. I just don't see how there's any excuse. We've literally done fuck all for the best part of 2 years and we seem to be as ill-prepared as it's possible to be. Obviously we can't legislate for other clubs coming in for players, but why haven't we been sounding out their agents beforehand?
  2. We've clearly come into this window really well prepared, having spent the past 18 months of inactivity doing the ground work. Top notch stuff so far
  3. Apart from up top. Unless we count Pedro as a backup striker?
  4. I want if he ever logs in here and feels sad that every thinks he a useless cunt?!
  5. It's the basis of the modern game. Not sure it's talent necessarily because I don't think it's something that can be learned. Honed, yes. I had this conversation with a mate a while back. The game is undoubtedly worse from an entertainment POV than it used to be because you no longer have players like Berbatov, Cantona, Ginola, Gazza, Zola, Bergkamp, Figo, Zidane - the list goes on. The technical side of the game has all but vanished because that type of player wouldn't fit into the modern game, which values speed and athleticism over everything else. Elanga is the epitome of the modern game - fast, effective, direct, athletic but sadly, not very exciting.
  6. I think everyone knows it bullshit. There's no sane world where Eddie signs a player with Rashford's temperament or lack of work rate.
  7. They will if they know we're in for him
  8. Or line up deals during the 18 month to 2 years where you've signed absolutely no one. It's not like we've been short of time to get shit sorted early doors
  9. Chelsea are going to allow their fans to sponsor a square foot of the pitch at £1m per piece to fund buying every player we've been scouting.
  10. Really surprised we haven't seen some early movement tbh. We've had 18 months to plan, monitor, negotiate and prepare bids. I'm sure there's stuff happening behind the scenes but this really is dull.
  11. The turd that won't flush.
  12. He is a very Spurs type signing. Historically they've been absolutely wank at developing young players though, so it's a shit move for him
  13. If he'd rather go to that car crash than play CL football, it speaks volumes. Cheerio
