Chelsea signing both Kounde and Koulibaly would be ridiculous for them, both elite CBs

Been saying for a while that I think this is the most likely scenario, im pretty sure Wilson we be our first choice for next season at least

The trio of hand signs, they are obviously trying to tell us something.. run the baths lads

Lodi, Paqueta and Abraham for me then

I believe so Also Barton pointed it out when he was at Marseille

If even half these links are real we will end up with 7/8 Brazilian first teamers

That was an ugly 2nd half but Mourinhos record in cup finals is ridiculous

Not Tammys best night this but they generally have done well to keep him quiet

Beauty that one, context is that Mings had just deliberately clipped him the back on the head with his studs just before hand

Watching these back almost brings a tear to my eye

Looks like the end for Ibra

merica loves us marra

Big if true, huge if big But who the fuck is Simon Dobson?

Jordan on point here

In hindsight a master stroke (by accident) as Clark’s red card gave us Vieralinton

Lodi is looking more likely by the day tbh, real shame for Targett but its understandable from Howes point of view.

Since Bruce likes to bring up Rafa so much here’s a good comparison between the two - has Rafa even brought up how he was treated by Everton’s fans?

The argument of Klopp vs Pep is pretty much settled for me at this point, look at the sums spent on that City side compared to what Klopps done with Liverpool who might be about to win their second CL under him this weekend. Klopp started with a side that was nothing close to what it is now. Hes brought in players and improved them as individuals, made them better than they were than when they signed - can we really say that for Pep (Of course there will be one or two exceptions either way, but generally Klopp seems a far better coach at fulfilling players potential than Pep). Look at the team he had when he took over compared to the very solid base Pep started with at City, he had the foundations of Kompany, Aguero, Silva ect to build on.. to me Klopp built a house from scratch where as Pep inherited something that was already half finished and spent away until it was done. Obviously if you give a manager funds they will spend regardless, but if the roles were reversed I don’t think we would be talking about Pep being in his 2nd CL final at Liverpool.

Villa is a decent shout tbf, with Gerrard and all.

He’s on like £160k pw atm, he’ll be looking for that or similar for one last big contract before he hangs it up so Id say no.

Yeah, that would rule this one instantly then.

Just exposed himself for being completely out of touch and putting no work into researching/scouting players at all. The man talks about football like it’s still the 70s, god knows how he gets through interviews let alone actually getting the jobs. ‘I need some energy in this side - go and see if you can find me a couple of young ones.’

Possible I suppose

I hope that its true but it does seems an oddly specific bit of info to release to a journo, just incites more fan expectation and pressure on to the people in charge of transfer business because it just lets other clubs know we are ready and willing to splash the cash this summer.
