Well, no news today, weekend coming up and we've not had a sniff over a weekend so far, so monday at the earliest for me to check SSN around 4-5pm and find out we've still done absolutely fuck all to solve our centre back problems. This is beyond a joke at this point, no one else in the prem is having any bother shifting absolute shite to Europe or Saudi this summer and so far all we've managed to do is shift Winks. Seems patently clear that we are waiting to sell to buy, which means we are almost certainly gonna go to Brentford with Dier playing in a back 4. I'm so fucked off at how small time we are, time and time again, last summer started promising too with Bissouma and Richy in early and then we had a protracted will-he-won't-he with Spence, followed by a late desparation loan for Lenglet. We have something like over £400m allowed spend under FFP but this board doesn't have the fucking minerals to sort all our issues out in one window so they only need to sign a first teamer or two every season to maintain the player churn. I reckon unless the misers at Bayern stump up £100m for Kane pretty swiftly we are gonna end up with more players who just "plug holes" in our squad and are a fucking bastard to sell in 2-3 years time.

Forever kicking the can down the road...

It is starting to feeling like 2018 to me now. No movement on ins or outs since Solomon. Pathetic really.
 
what I want to know is where has the Winks money gone ?

:ange-blow:

thank fuck that Rodon and Tanganga can be called on when we need em 👍 and Big Dav is still with us. Once he gets back in his rhythm he will be like a new signing. I was really worried Dav might have opted to go to Moscow, but fair play. He’s loyal.

Also I am wondering if PSG have gone cold on the £30m Levy wants for Hugo ? Any updates there folks ? Feel worried that we might have to play our new number 2 in goal if Hugo leaves us. Big Fraser has a back problem, so while I might #FFismynumber1 I don’t think he actually will be.

Yh on paper mate but if we are needing to get players out before we bring in that's a big problem

In terms of short-tem cash flow it shouldn't make the slightest bit of difference...... As long as by the end of the window the squad numbers, HG spots etc. panned out as required we shouldn't be sat on our hands because (eg) the likes of Austin & White haven't been found loans yet.
 
Mourinho then subbed Dier 29 minutes into a match for Spurs.

Our players looked very different once he moved from Old Trafford to the Lane.

Mourinho apologises to Dier after subbing him in the 29th minute

"Explaining his actions following an impressive 4-2 victory, Mourinho told BT Sport: 'The first thing I want to say is to do publicly what I did in the dressing room which is to apologise to Eric Dier. 'It's never easy for a player but I did it for the team. It was not for Eric playing badly, it was for the team to have different solutions.

Jose was subsequently still keen enough on Dier to green-light a new deal and a payrise for him.
 
Because he made a joke?

Serious question, did that joke on the club's expense offend you?

because it really comes off like you get very sensitive about these things...

It was a joke because it's true and amusing. But that's all it is

Offended? No.....

Just not particularly funny....... It might have a little more comedic merit if the club had an actual desire to sell Kane, but alas not everyone is a comedian.

As per my OG comment: You'd expect anyone with a Joe Lewis avatar to be seriously entrenched into a certain mindstate.... The 'joke' kinda cements that theory (as much as it is only a theory...... Maybe they are actually the proverbial happy clapper? ...Not very likely though is it?)
