I agree thats the case, especially when we wait until their careers nosedive to consider selling. 

 

I'm not even sure what I'm arguing anymore. I just want the club to have better timing when it comes to selling. 

 

 

 

 

I agree and said as much back in January. Tbf I think Eales said the same thing even then when he talked about even having to sell Bruno if we were pushed to the wall. We can't keep holding onto depreciating assets because in the end that will lead to selling appreciating assets instead if we are forced to abide by PSR rules.

They don’t want them

Do they not know the rules ? They have to have them at inflated fees, they are giving Villa £60 million and probably Man Utd and Man City, that should be us

It depends, Ederson, Casemiro and Diaby would all enhance the Saudi "brand" in some way. Two are serial winners who've played for massive clubs and the other is a French international heading into hid prime years.

tbh they are trying to enhance their own league and Almiron & longstaff sadly doesn’t do that. Think Howe wants to keep Wilson & Trippier

If its early days into the new management setup and things aren't up and running yet then why the hell didn't we bring in Mitchell a lot earlier? A lot on here where saying they'll be alright for transfers without a sporting director there.

Because the Board wanted to run a thorough, multi-candidate recruitment process to make sure they hired the best person for the job. And that takes time

What actually are you moaning about?

Can only assume the shock of two days of not being shit weather has burnt a lot of peoples brains. Some really rank posts this weekend from the usual bedwetters

We have had ages to bring him in is what I'm saying. He wasn't in work with any club. 

Just think we could of moved earlier for him.

Sounds like they've activated enough economic levers.

 

 

 

Wouldn’t it make more sense for them to sell Raphinia first to have the money for Williams? Fwiw the athletic thinks Williams will stay at Bilbao for one more season.

[Emotic]

Vitor Roque unhappy at Barca. Bring him in and get him under the wing of his Paranaense brother Bruno.

Then there'll be complaints about why we're only 3 points clear and not 6, or why such-and-such a player didn't come off until the 73rd minute instead of the 64th minute. Normally from the same people.

Couldn't find anyone else mentioning it on Twitter or Google recently, so probably conjured through some form of scatomancy

All links go back to a caught offside article.

[Doctor Zaius]

Think its clear we're after a centre half and a right sided attacker. The right winger is more of a priority for me, so I hope we go big and also sign another quality centre half. 

 

I think another striker will be third on the list, but i suspect Howe will be happy going into the season with Isak, Wilson and Gordon as central striking options. Think we'll struggle to shift any of our lot but I really didnt see Anderson going.
