Can't wait to see your reaction when Gallagher does his first interview and says COYS whilst winking at the camera

That's not happening. Can we see your face when he extends or goes to Newcastle?

Well he is married and I think has a daughter (might be wrong about the daughter). Think Flav just has really really immature sense of humor.

Must admit that I stopped listening to his podcast as well - and switched over to Ali Gold and The View from the Lane so I could listen with my young son.

You know none of that's conclusive. Listen to Elton John on his first marriage its enlightening .Paul O'grady had a daughter too. If it's and as you suggest a childish sense of humour then it's worse...because you start to boarder on some weird baked in homophobia.Its kind of barley understandable when you are a teenage boy but he's a big ass man. He should do better..Its kind of why I stopped listening.

Pal, a striker guaranteed to score you 20 a season year in year out, that's minimum 100mil on today's market. Have we ever spent that on a player? No. Will we in the near future/ever? Doubtful.

We ain't getting Haaland, Osimhen, Bappe, Lautaro...it ain't Football Manager. And we ain't getting a L4L replacement for Harry, it just doesn't exist. Get over it.

So that leaves us with the B-list...same goes for the vast majority of clubs in the PL and abroad not named City, Chelsea, PSG...you know, backed by dirty money. But even those guys - Openda, Gimenez, Toney, Watkins, Solanke, Ferguson, Vlahovic, David etc etc - will cost you 50-70mil.

But come on, we're all ears cause you seem to have the correct answer all the time.

Not to me he ain't. I'd rather get Solanke in, I'll tell you that. The Goons or Chavs can gave that 28yo naughty boy who's not kicked a ball for ages but who'd still cost close to 100 mil. He's a closet Woolwich fan anyway, no?

Anyway, you got your tastes, I got mine. Peace out
 
If you haven’t see Dragusin then watch Genoa when you get a chance. He’s exactly what we need. He’s a big strong aggressive defender who can shift but brilliant at using his body and that’s what’s very impressive about him. He doesn’t let forwards dictate to him. Good on the ball too and has a bigger pass in him if needed. If I had to pick between him and Todibo then I’d go for him. I’ve seen Dragusin an awful lot more but have always been impressed.

Currently we have Bentancur, Bissouma, Skipp, Sarr, Maddison plus Lo Celso and Hojbjerg (7 players for 3 places) plus Kulusevski who has dropped back to cover Maddison's injury

No way are we upgrading at CM by getting another CM in without selling one of both of Lo Celso and/or Hojbjerg,

Then sell them. Hoj clearly isn’t wanted

Said to be able to play RB (and LB a little) which suggests he can play RCB and LCB.

Last season a full season of 38 matches in Serie B and season before 9 starts in Serie A and 11 subs, and this season so far 17 starts in Serie A (so 38 appearances in Serie A in total), Still only 21 so experience is good for his age

So might be slightly short of top class Serie A experience, but equivalent of one full season of Serie A and another in Serie B is not bad - Paraciti will know him well from Juve (who sold him to Genoa).

In the summer we were strongly linked with a CB but signed the less experienced Van de Venn ...... and don't regret that at all. So a good precedent if we get Dragusin over Todibo
 
I’ve seen comments about Philips and Dorrington not being ready . Our under 21 team is top of their league, won all 9 games and conceded 8 goals. I know it’s not against Premiership games but I bet if Dier and Royal were our centrebacks in thise games the stats would not be as good. Give them a chance.
 
He’s comfortable with both feet to be fair which is always an asset. You’re right about the experience thing,VDV came relatively inexperienced and is a monster for us. It’s what the player shows in those appearance which makes him a real talent. There’s some that can play 250 games and be utterly average. This lad has the attributes to succeed at a top team.
 
Would anyone take ollise or eze ahead of any of our forwards? Eze id imagine could play attacking 8 where kulu plays. I’d say both are better than most of our forwards in terms of skill level.
