I think at the end of the window we become:

FUCKING HORRIABLE CUNTS TO PLAY. I MEAN FUCKING SERIOUS HORRIABLE.
PROPER SEIGE MENTALITY. SCORE AND ILL BREAK YOUR LEG TYPE OF SHIT.
NO ONE WILL WANT TO GO NEAR US. TOTALLY UNITED DRESSING ROOM.

And I don't care who he buys to create this.

Klopp/Pep: Maybe, just maybe Conte is the best of the three.

Just saying like.
 

Genuinely torn on this.

I can’t shake the fundamental irony of us replacing Eriksen with….Eriksen.

But I loved him when he was here. I think he was given unfair criticism for that last year, not least because Poch absolutely wore him into the ground playing that fucking awful diamond. Even when he was supposed to have downed tools, he always topped the distance charts. He never stopped running. He just couldn’t hit the ball above knee height!

I haven’t watched much of him at Brentford, but by all accounts he stood out and pretty much saved them from a relegation scrap.

It just seems to make sense. Financially and in terms of what we need. I don’t think that’s sentimentality on our part. Or his, for that matter.
 
If Rodin goes we're going to need a CB to replace him for cover, even if we do stick with Dier as the CCB, or it will just be Sanchez to cover for all 3 CB positions.

A lot of the players we may be looking to shift are 25 or under.
 
Ward Prowse I hope as our HG addition
Don’t know if I would blow more than 1/4 of our injected cash on JWP. He’s (obviously) HG and a useful squad addition but, I think, Southampton will ask for 50m to sell to an EPL rival — I know Yawnited are interested — and I can see him costing 35-40m at least. That’s a huge HG Tax for a player basically worth around 25m who won’t improve our first XI

If we’re going to offer silly money for a homegrown midfielder, I’d rather blow the stack on Declan Rice. Yeah, I know it’s a pipe dream.

Is that Rat Catcher Rat Catcher with his pension?
 
This really shows how hard it is at times to scout young talent. 3 seasons ago even Real M. was said to be interested in Soumare, as well as Spurs. Now even Leicester doesn't want him...

Leicester will hand Jonny Evans a new one-year contract - but will listen to offers for Jannik Vestergaard and Boubakary Soumare as Brendan Rodgers calls for squad shake-up​

  • Jonny Evans, 34, is poised to sign a one-year extension to his Leicester contract
  • But the club will listen to offers for Jannik Vestergaard and Boubakary Soumare
  • Manager Brendan Rodgers has spoken of a 'healthy shake-up' at the King Power

50 million , or a swap with Winks and we pay an additional ? ??. We all have our own value for Winks, I think we might get 15 million for him

Fine by me.

Half the time the league seems desperate to crown the champion before the season even begins; it's all part of finding a narrative to latch on to, and so many clubs seem happy to play their part. We need to be proper fucking rude like we were in peak Poch-ball when nobody wanted to play us and more often than not we looked like a team that had been relegated from a higher league.

This boy's name has come up again.

Have seen him play a few times this season and he will definitely be picked up by a top club soon. Definitely worth a gamble as he is quick, skilful, and has an eye for goal but also likes a tackle and gets stuck in for a young lad. Doesn’t have a settled position yet but has played well in a number of different positions over the course of the season including RW, CAM, CM & RWB. Long term think he will be best as an attacking midfielder personally.
