Yep. If they don’t have at least 5 points after those, then they’re fucked early doors.

Those games after UCL are killers, bar Fulham at home. Need to address squad depth urgently or it’s just so many dropped points to teams we shouldn’t. Sunderland (A) Sunday Midday, after a hard slog away in UCL is giving me jitters already.

It’s only taking place because Infantino is a proper egotistical bellend, where he wants it to be all about him and this club World Cup is all about him. Then it’s only happening financially because the Saudis have brought the 2034 World Cup, so as a thank you conventiently purchased a stake in DAZN that covers the TV costs.

Osula to Forest for £30m

Edwards being played again. We'll be signing someone else this week.

Been quite disappointed. Hoped he'd step up this tournament and show a different level giving his age and Prem games under his belt, but he's looked very clumsy with the ball.

Spurs (A) would be logical if Sunderland are giving home game first on the Saturday. Spurs in super cup midweek before so will be playing Sun I’d say.

One of Digne, Bailey or Buendia will go to Saudi for an inflated price.

Biggest BS rumour this window? £20m

Still can’t hold up the ball like Wilson can though.

Said it before, but he was very much breaking out for us then the injury pushed him back. With Tonali suspension, I believe he would've locked down a CM position which ended up being Longstaff. Ended season strongly too which made losing him even more difficult to swallow.

We’ll have him back in the future without doubt. HG, cemented CM and we should be ahead of other clubs when that move becomes available.

Scousers shouldn’t be commentators. Just don’t take a breath and don’t think before they speak.

Want one of the 'big' sides at home. Chelsea, Spurs, Man Utd. Get the boys up to speed early on. Would like us to have a strong start for once, feels we always start off iffy (sometimes not helped by having hard games) but say opening 7 games and it's 17 points unbeaten sort of start. Feels we're overdue putting a marker down early because we can hook it up mid-season, at which point it's too late.

I’d sell any player in squad if a serious bid come in of £100m+ It’s dumb money at that point, where it doesn’t matter how good that one player is, you can strengthen the squad a lot more with £100m that also has greater future impact.

An experienced head which he loves when it comes to defending. Robertson been learning Spainish?

One I wanted as the striker when Delap was a no go.

Also Spurs have probably seen the best of Maddison. Strikes me as a player profile who will fall off quick.

So our fans will hate him in 2027 and want him sold.

Giving how lacking they on LW, Johnson would likely move there. Don’t think they’re signing Tel? Son is done as a player and Richarlison has been a waste of time and money. Odebert and Moore the wingers behind. It’s a very raw collective if that happened, Mbeumo aside. Edit: Forgot Kulu for RW too.

Wasn’t like 50% of them penalties?

Yea. Pickford moved like 10 years ago (was he even capped at that point?), so in todays value that must be like £50m+ Then Ramsdale was overpaid. Think £30m is right ball park, and if it’s performance related add ons for extra £5m+, that’s perfectly fine as you want those bonuses to be achieved.

Those £150k wages will end up £200k+ comfortably now.

One player I was who I wanted last summer, Hutchinson. Had a very good link up with Tino on left side (no reason same couldn’t be on right). Work rate was high, made good decisions. Seemed to be a lot more effective in a side with other quality around him which I didn’t see as much last season at Ipswich. Might be one to keep an eye on transfer movement wise. Would split opinions because he’s still a raw player that needs development for RW, whilst others want a more near finished player.
