    Very reliable source. Most likely it was from Arsenal, can see Liverpool as well. Doubt it was from us because Ajax will not let him go this late that easy, and if we were to spend big, it would most likely be on an attacking player.

     

     

     

     

    Worthy of a thread.

    Fab was saying they want £30 million all in, so fingers crossed.

     

    Depends if the add-ons are achievable or over a short period of time I suppose.

    I would think we have a list of potential loan signings as fall backs too. 

     

    Ideally they wouldn't have to go that route in case they are needed in January due to freak injuries or otherwise. 

     

    I absolutely believe we won't cave and bend over backwards. 

     

    We need to stop saying shit like this :lol: Nobody is asking us to bend over backwards, just pay a realistic fee.

    Really is quite aloof to proclaim that there is no knowledge of the allegations or circumstances in the public domain when it is pretty much all out there [emoji38]

     

    I’d take a trial by social media with a pinch of salt like.

     

    Not saying he didn’t do it at all, but to speak about it with certainty is equally dangerous.

    They are playing a rapist. 

     

    Time will tell on that one. Club clearly have confidence he won’t be charged, can’t imagine Arteta playing him otherwise.

     

    Don’t think they’re anywhere near as bad as the mackems.

    Lost count of how many times I've thought "hey, Arsenal look like they've finally got it right here with this team" over the last 12 years. Before it invariably turns to shit a few months later... 

     

    They don’t seem to have the personalities that they had before though, this team is very likeable. 

     

    Think they’ll get top four personally.

    Mitro 3rd of the season - bbc saying  it’s a proper strikers goal and he now matches his last prem season tally.

     

     

     

     

    That season was a write off because they had an absolutely diabolical manager and the whole squad was shite.

     

    He’s a great striker and will likely do well this season, a small section of our fanbase were daft to think otherwise.

    Similar how? You went out and bought the best players, went after the best managers (until Ole). We played a team of championship standard players in the premier league with the sole intention of survival.

     

    He’s a typical online Man Utd ‘fan’. You can pretty much disregard anything he says.

    Can anyone cast any light onto why this deal is seen largely as dead noe? Is it just that one Southampton report? Or just the general outward inaction on it?

     

    I’m not sure there was ever a deal to begin with :lol: I think this is similar to the Paqueta deal.

    That's the beauty of stats though!

     

    Your mate says he goes missing but he's in the top percentile or two for numerous statistics which tell us this isn't true. For example he's making 100 touches a game and attempts more passes than 98% of the league.

     

     

     

     

    Stats told us Chris Wood would score goals but eyes didn’t and the eyes won that battle.

     

    Stats should only ever be used in combination with actually watching players. Players like Colback probably have some decent stats somewhere because all they do is pass the ball sideways and backwards.

     

    How many of those attempted passed were successful, for example?
