Are Tino and Livra not the same person?

Fact is everyone in that squad barring Isak, Bruno, Tonali, Gordon and Botman should be available for sale at the right price. And even those 5 can’t be untouchable if an insane offer comes in. It’s then Mitchell’s responsibility to source adequate replacements within whatever budget he is given. That’s his job. If he can’t do it then he needs to be replaced with someone who can. We are gonna have to wheel and deal like our lives depend on it. Feels like PSR has shackled us more than any other club.

Could we get £60m for him from Saudi?

Villa are quite proactive, whereas we, by comparison, like to sit on our hands and wait for the perfect transfer to fall into our laps.

The result today really done me in like. Nothing is lost yet of course, and this season could still turn out to be a really special one, but I feel like we will get more results and performances like today mixed in with the good ones. Apart from the 9 game winning streak, the inconsistency has really killed us.

Get rid. Offers us nothing.

And the hardest to replace.

Villa can’t cope with the Champions League together with the Premier League. We struggled last season, and Forest will be the same if they qualify for it next season. Clubs like ours simply don’t have the squad depth to adequately compete in both.

It’s obvious we will have to sell one or two of our better players to progress as a club. PSR means there is no other way in the short term. Liverpool did it when they sold Torres, Suarez and then Coutinho. Spurs did it with Gareth Bale. We will have to do it as well.

Bournemouth are very good. I know the score line doesn’t reflect that at the moment, but they’ve been comfortably the better side today.

90m euros is a mad offer for Mitoma. Mudryk and Antony cost the same. That kind of outlay doesn’t really get you much these days, does it.

That and the loss against West Ham will probably come back to bite us at the end of the season, I fear. Both losses at home as well, which makes it even more galling.

Utter shite from Brighton.

Probably found it down the back of the sofa.

What’s Ed Woodward been up to since leaving Man Utd? Perhaps he could do a job for us? Granted, he was clueless when it came to the football side of things, but seemed to be very highly thought of when it came to maximising commercial revenue streams.

The Villa squad maybe deeper than ours on paper, but I don’t see any genuine quality in there like ours. They seem to be stockpiling a lot of good to average players, that won’t really take them to the next level.

We could spend it, but would have had to sell one of our top players before June 30th 2025 to comply with PSR.

Could do with Bournemouth cooling down a bit.

I hope Ratcliffe and co decide to show them ungrateful Man Utd fans just how horrible they can really be.

Now time to round off the weekend with some Manc comedy, hopefully.

As much as we are all laughing at how bad Spurs are, I do hope they can overcome Liverpool in the cup semi. I’d fancy our chances against them much more than I would the scouse bastards!

He’s no great shakes. Typical West Ham signing.

Fuck, this is so boring. Not just us, but there hardly seems to be any eye-catching deals being done anywhere. Man City have bought a load of prospects, and that’s about it.

Hate this sort of shit. Defeats the whole purpose of building up a club properly, but if our rivals doing this, then we need to get in on it too. No point handicapping ourselves just so we can say we took the moral high ground.

I hope Southampton don’t get another point this season. Absolute waste of spaces.
