Also 5th should be Champions League next year (yes I know we said that this year!). Italy could have 9 teams in Europe, so naturally their average ranking should decrease unless all their teams have a successful European campaign. Especially when Bologna and Atalanta will be in the CL.

Surely he wouldn't be that stupid, he was already getting investigated at that point.

I wonder if part of the reason for this is that the ‘old guard’ generally aren’t as good with their feet which is in fashion now. Maybe in 10 years time the average age will creep up again when these top keepers who are also good with their feet are older.

No chance of Bowen now with news that Paqueta is getting charged for gambling. If it is true that he got booked on purpose he could be screwed for a long time

Would still (if possible) like to see us then sign a young striker as a backup that could get some minutes off the bench as well. No idea who though

I do appreciate that, it was more that I have seen a few do it on ability. I don't think we can get him for a reasonable price but if we can he seems a no brainer to me/ If you can add a right winger that will get you double figures to what we already have and with the players we have returning and the transfers we look like we are making then it looks to me like we could have a very successful season.

Can't believe a few people are turning their noses up at Bowen, he would be perfect for us! DCL on the other hand is possibly the only striker with a worse injury record than Wilson, would be a terrible signing! I read that they wanted £60m for him!

I don't think so, I just think it is his style. Especially when there isn't much happening elsewhere at the moment so he just regurgitates news to stay relevant.

Depending on when Botman and Lascelles are actually back, I wonder if we will try and cash in on him. Should be able to get a few million. Think I would personally keep him as an emergency option, especially if Man City win on Saturday.

Tosin and Lascelles are RCB. So we have Botman, Kelly and Burn for left and Tosin, Schar and Lascelles for right all being well. Schar has the ability to play both as well.

If Tosin and Kelly both had three years left on their contracts, how much would they cost combined? £35m to £40m? Brilliant business to get them for free if we pull them both off!

Didn't realise Members had to redeem a voucher by midnight, bit strange that! Never mind.

Have we been linked to Guirassy at all? Could be a good replacement for Wilson at a similar price to what I think we could get for Wilson. Although you would imagine he would have some good options where he would be the main man, not second fiddle to Isak.

Unable to watch this today as it was my daughter’s christening..get the fuck in what a brilliant result. Over to you Man City!

Can only be good news for us. Not leaving under a cloud so hopefully they will give one last big performance tomorrow for his final game

Pope Trippier Schar Burn Hall Longstaff Buno Joelinton Almiron Isak Gordon Press them from the front, be aggressive. One last game so got to give it everything!

I would personally not sell Trippier. We would have to replace him (can't have Krafth as backup right back all season) and Tino does seem to pick up a few injuries himself so we need two strong options at right back. However, in a parallel world where we actually have a full squad to choose from, I do now think that Tino should be first choice right back and set pieces should be spread out throughout the team. Gordon, Hall and Tonali are all good set piece takers.

The second leg would be the perfect game to get Tonali back in to starting line up then.

Also feeling pretty negative about this one and think we need a favour from Brighton, hopefully I am wrong. Biggest concern is set pieces and their physicality, Pope and Joelinton have to start this one!

Also, how the fuck did we ‘bottle it’. We were the better team and had the better chances/should have had a penalty. A few stupid mistakes has cost us, it happens, but we didn’t bottle it at all.

Can’t believe anyone is turning their noses up at Conference League. A realistic chance of winning a trophy! Let’s do what we need to do at Brentford and see where it takes us. I’ll be buzzing for ECL.

How many times can you refer to them as 'United' in a tweet involving two clubs called United?

I find it absolutely ridiculous that he is banned for the first few weeks of the season, who gains anything from that? The ban is a ridiculous length anyway, should be allowed to play again from the start of the season.

Will be gutted if he goes to them but thanks to the way football is with the finances, we are unable to compete with any of the big teams with wages if they go big with their offer. Fingers crossed he will choose us regardless.

It is an absolute disgrace if this is allowed to happen from the Premier League and makes a complete mockery of the supposed rules. Surely if the PL come to the correct conclusion that this is not allowable income for PSR calculations then Chelsea will be absolutely screwed, however I think we all know that a blind eye will be turned and the loophole will be closed so no pesky non big six team can benefit from it!
