Haven’t heard that. Just that Barca want to keep him.

Barca and Xavi did want to keep him but what Dembele wanted was way beyond what Barca could offer, which is why they are then trying to move him on now to at least try and recoup some money

Exactly! I’m agreeing with you. 
 

Didn’t they make some official statement basically telling him to get fucked once he said he wouldn’t sign a new deal? Sid Lowe has been on Twitter with loads of it of late. They want him gone this month.

Yeah….I know. They want him

gone because of the money (him

being out of contract and refusing to sign a new one on less money), not the fact they don’t want him as a player….which is what I’ve been saying.

Weirdly, I have little excitement about Dembele (which is mad), but you'd think his style of play is tailor-made for the league, particularly in a counter attacking side.

 

Ne chance his body will keep up with the demands though, surely.

Same. If he was a deadline day deal. I’d be absolutely buzzing, mind. 
 

Can’t see it happening and so not excited by it. Plus he’ll just breakdown after a few games, anyway.

His injury list is quite concerning mind.

Same here. It's got a bit too much of a whiff of James Rodriguez at Everton for me.

Am I right that Wood, Trippier and Guimaraes are all reported to not have a relegation release clause? I wonder who from our side pushed that the most, I’m sure I read that Howe was pushing for it but it’s pretty phenomenal business to pick those players up without clauses if it’s true. And I’m more impressed by the fact these players will be absolutely desperate to keep us up than the money we’d potentially be saving if we were to go down

God I'm so fucking desperate for us to stay up now, and truly kick on. This window has been incredibly exciting, imagine the summer if we survive? Actually feels so surreal to think we're going to be a team looking to compete again at the highest level.

I don't see us getting more than 2 or a maximum of 3 new players in on top of Bruno. 

 

If it's two only then it has to be a quality striker and a CB. If 3 then it would be nice with an attacking midfielder. Bonus if he can play wide too, or if the striker can.

The potential loan deals are pretty exciting, quite a few will come up that haven’t even been thought possible by the club up to this point.

What we gonna do if ASM gets injured like?

We'd potentially be doomed as he's our best player imo, despite all the hate he gets. Well maybe Bruno is our best player now but not up top. I think a deadline day Lingard/Dembele may solve the ASM injury issue.

We do, we need an AM and a winger or at least a winger. 

Agreed, I have feeling we might get both. It's definitely our most stacked and exciting deadline day ever. If we get lucky and some clubs bend, we could end up bringing in 3-5 more. I have a feeling Utd will let us have Lingard. We may also just go for it and go for a release clause or two. I think if we get Zapata we'll be golden, should just pay them what they want, he'll keep us up.
