It depends if you think we have a budget and how many players you think we need, I don't care how much they cost but I want our gaps to be met. And then it's a transfer thread with no transfers happening.

Ndombele not on Juves shortlist anymore it would seem. Hhmmm...
Always had the feeling that it would be either Spurs or PSG.
If United are being smart, they're only saying they're not selling Pogba to drive up the price. It would be good business to get rid of both Pogba and Lukaku in the same window.
So i hope they both stay for a long long time.
We are also talking about selling Trippier for a 1000% profit tbf
Hopefully if they do sell him they drag the arse out of any sale, because I'd be shocked if they didn't go for Ndombele in the event Pogba were to leave.
That's actually a really good shout.
Can't see PSG going for him tbh. They don't really need him and with FFP they could struggle to afford him. If we stop pissing about with the negotiations, we'll get him.
Perhaps there's a chance that their ego and desire to get French talent could motivate them though?
I dare say that all of us on here coveting Ndombele fully believe he'll be the long term starting CM for that French squad.
Certainly possible but I just can't see it tbh. I feel like if it continues to drag on for the next two weeks or so they(or other clubs) could get involved, but as it stands I genuinely do think we have a clear run...
We should be considering Milinkovic-Savic imho - seen a bit more of him than Ndombele tbh but not really enough of either beyond YouTube clips BUT the way everyone was wanking on about him last summer he can’t have been that bad this season. You’d hope Lazio would prefer to sell abroad than to Juventus.
I agree. (and technically it’s a bit of my money as I’m a ST holder)
Nobody ever says “I’m ok that striker missed a couple because he only cost us £16m instead of £25m”
All about the correct budget and priorities.
If we have £150m to spend (inc. sales) then spending up to half on a key man in a key position is fine. (i.e. BLOODY SIGN NDOMBELE!!!)
The Arse have a budget issue as they apparently only have £45m, so had to pull out of Carasco for £30m.... two thirds of a budget on a winger when they desperately need centre halves and centre midfielder would be madness.
:clintonohshit:
500k it was. Roughly the same as Mahrez .Their head scout was hailed as a genius...got a big move to Everton and made an arse of it. Just got lucky I think. Dele and Dier 9m combined......not a bad effort.
Tbh I haven't seen much of him at all since the World Cup, but he did look very good last season. I think Ndombele's ceiling is far higher though, and is much more suited to what we need. If reports are to be believed he'd probably be cheaper too.
No page spike.....
No sign of a signing.
No sign of a signing.
Let's be honest. A lot about scouting is being lucky.
If we signed Kante or Mahrez at the time Leicester did, people would be flipping a shit.
Leicester paid something like £6m for Kanté when he joined from Cean.
