Hoping there will some be some kind of way to watch this tomorrow.

 

It's on "espn 3" (online streaming) in the States, so i'd expect it to be streamed elsewhere as well

 

Awesome! I'm working tomorrow and this means i have something to do :)

Dear Supporter,

 

We are pleased to give you an update this evening on the situation regarding Chancel Mbemba.

 

The Club can confirm that due to the nature of the fixture tomorrow (Saturday, 1st August) it has obtained the necessary permissions in order for Chancel to be involved in the squad to face Borussia Monchengladbach.

 

The Club would like to thank Anderlecht for their co-operation in this matter.

 

The player has an appointment overseas midweek to make his formal visa application, which we expect to be issued in order that he can be available for selection for the Club's first game of the Premier League season.

 

They seem pretty reasonable to do business with compared to some of the others we've dealt with.

 

Maybe we haven't messed them about like we have done with other clubs and made acceptable offers.

Birthday aside... Watching Willo get skinned by a 3rd tier player against Sacramento leaves me with nothing but optimism over this signing... Two out of Mbemba, Colo, Taylor, Lascelles, Dummett gives me more encouragement now than anything over the past two years.  Ideally if Saylor stays fit and Lascelles proves he's more than just a mediocre Championship level centre back (Williamson?) then it'll be interesting to see how they get on.  Having faith in Bigi at right back and Dummett at left back is where is where I draw the line.... DW is still the physio after all...

This. And the fact I still think we offset some of the Mitrovic fee on to Mbemba so Belgrade's 20% isn't as significant.

The Mbemba signing is critical, we all Williamson is not up to the job, and I think Cololcini has been on borrowed time for a while.

Please be good, please be good , please be good.

 

This! Shouldn't have too high expectations though. Probably not 100% fit and in a totally new team against a very good side.

Agreed but will be loads better than Williamson irrespective, so it's a positive.

Please be good, please be good , please be good.
