Even better, Pope.

I was thinking that also. He could start in a 3 CB formation or come in as a solid sub I suppose with the odd start to keep things fresh.

Well, this adds to fine Friday! Weather is nice, pints are cold and a lightning fast CB may be joining Newcastle shortly.

Depends on what they could get I guess. Not out of the realm of possibility I think.

I'd love to get that guy but Leeds know he's their best player and really would need to get 65M for him which might be too much for NUFC given the needs they have.

I don't believe that, at least not fully. That may have been a big part but if he thought there was no hope he'd have found someone else. I think both can be true, they sold him on the project and he wanted to go back.

Nobody cares but the Minnesota United Loons are up against the New England Revolution in Boston 1-0. The Loons stadium is 6 blocks from my house. I really should attend a game.

That's what I was thinking. If everyone moves on they get shite. No idea how it will play out of course.

I would presume they want to shake down PSG. No idea what sort of FFP there is in France. Doesn't bode as well for Milan. I would hope there would be some clarity next week on the exact situation.

That's rather interesting if true.

So is Ronnie. We all move on.

I see, guess with all the excitement I assumed he was properly capped. Thanks Sima.

Did Botman play for the Netherlands today? I watched some of the first half but was somewhat distracted.

Trump shit? Never associate me with that. Just to make you hate me, I liked the Iron lady.

I missed it brother but I guess it was likely good.

Yea, no apology needed by our Italian friend.

As an Italian American I support you.

Wow, never realized how good he was. My entry was Alan Willey who made the National Soccer Hall of Fame. Second all time in the NASL in goals. Chinaglia was insane.

Alan Willey tops my earliest list. Tino Lettieri and Ace Ntsoelengoe close second and third. Englishman Willey was the leader on the Minnesota Kicks and played against Pele at the time.

Lille just needs to tell Milan they need to match our offer. If they do then Botman's agent needs to tell Milan to match the wages. Milan can say fuck it any time they want or just match the offer and get the player. That really should be the bottom line.

Didn't Howe mention at the start of the January window they'd have a squad of 100 if they signed everyone they were linked with? I'm pretty it was something to that effect.

It’s all coming up Milhouse!

That exactly how I read it. If I'm Lille I'm taking the best deal. You'd be daft not to.

Say what? edit: That seems bullshit.

TBF, he said he had to wait until "The two clubs said I could talk" so it's possible that occurred after they reached agreement and before the PL approved it.
