In other news, Russia might show aggression to the Ukraine whilst there are unconfirmed reports that unrest could remain in Israel. According to sources.

I love the 3rd kit. Might be in the minority but this years home kits not for me, the white "patch" on the back is too jarring to the front (which is decent). I'll get the 3rd instead of the home and hope the back is improved next season. It might have been better in black in hindsight. We look like leeds from the back.

Lots of sounds coming from Chelsea they want £40m for Madueke... they're looking to sell and Eddie likes him. Can see this one happening

Chelsea sign Chiesa and sell Madueke to us?? I like Chiesa but he's a big risk given his form last season was average.

Damn its like listening to a mate bitch about how much he wants his ex back and you just want to slap him and say "move on mate". Gotta just let this one go...

Bloody love Tripps. I was at the Villa game where he scored the freekick and we won 1-0. His presence and leadership that day was top class. The first signing of the new ownership and symbolises the ambition of the club. He instantly raised levels in the team.

Not for me now. He's done nothing to warrant any interest plus he seems like a scumbag.

I think a lot are underestimating Madueke and chasing a "big" name like Neto. Eddie knows what will work.

Think Madueke is a really good player. Stood out for Chelsea in their run in last season. Similar output to Olise too

I agree its frustrating. But we could have made 2/3 new signings by the time we play Saints. Lets reserve judgement until then.

Footy Insidee do get a few right. They're middle of the road for me in terms of reliability. Not Ornstein, but not Indy Kaila either.

Just wait until the window ends. I'll bet money we've got a new RCB & RW by then. It's been a slow market for most clubs, not just us (who've undergone a big leadership change). We'll be fine lads, just sit tight.

In Eddie we trust. If he's seen something in Thiaw he thinks fits his system, he's got my support.

He's off to Juventus unfortunately.

He's first choice RW for Brazil. Its the going rate sadly and he'd expect to be on par with our best paid players given his profile. He'd be my first RW choice albeit I dont know what budget we're playing with.

I dont disagree but he's said he wants that job one day. It's just a question of timing.

I dont think Southgate stays. He's had enough, you can see it in his face. As for Howe, I don't want him to go and hopefully he feels the timing isn't quite right BUT its the biggest job of your career... tough to turn down.

They are but they have a manager who is younger than Trippier. Jury is out for me...

Love Miggy. Deserves more respect than some give him. He's always tried his best for us, if only every player in our history did that we'd have won a bit more. Wish him nothing but success.

He's still here, thats all that matters

100% nailed it mate. Honestly every other club has to so exactly the same thing but some of our lot are spitting dummies out that we're doing it too. £70m for 2 players hardly in anyone's list of untouchables in our squad, to comply with psr, to allow us to go again from July onwards needs to give their head a shake. I think its creative, shrewd business which protects the core of our team and allows us to build. Wait until September to judge the window people.

Gibbs White

Disagree on £10m being an acceptable fee. He's shown flashes of real brilliance and when he came back into the team last season it coincided with an upturn in our form. His aggression in the press was fantastic and set a tone for the rest. His attacking play seemed to drop off but the whole team seemed to fall back up the pitch by 10 metres which didn't suit him. Think he'll be a solid player, good luck to him Should be £15-20m or we've been robbed.

If we sell Wilson to Saudi then I believe we're level on psr terms. I'd stay away from deals like Elanga and DCL and be targeting a Neto/Bowen/Chiesa level signing for our RW
