Number of times I’ve logged in to find 20 notifications of him dropping kisses. Then to snitch on being on the receiving end. And to have time to complain for it on a chat forum.

😂😂😂

Genuinely the most pussyhole thing I’ve seen in ages.

Bit surprised there's not been more talk of Bentancur today. Last night he threw two bottles into a crowd and bloodied up someone's face. Could be set for a lengthy ban even if his injury isn't serious, and regardless I'm not sure the club is gonna want to keep this sort of character around the squad. Would surprise me if we're not in the market for a new DM.

Edit: Ah it's mainly on his own thread. Don't mind me. Though I do wonder whether it could impact our transfer plans this summer. Without Bentancur I have no idea what our plans are for the #6 next season. Bissouma is too inconsistent, Hoj on his way out, Gray is a kid, Skipp not good enough.

Jordy Schouten looked very good for Holland v England I thought. PSV have done business with us in the past, wouldn't be impossible to get that over the line.

Try Kulu at the 6. He's big, strong, gets stuck in, kid's got a top footy IQ, can defo ping some sweet passes, can still make runs into the box...his lack of pace defo hurting us less there than on the wing.

People will laugh at this but Dembele was a winger before Poch moved him back and he then became one of the best pivot players in the world. And while Kulu is no Mousa he does share some attributes with him.

He's strong as an ox, difficult to get the ball off, can receive back to goal, hold it up, spot a progressive pass. Can defend too. And he's smart, in footballing terms, so I can see him learning the role pretty quickly. I can see him being a good ball carrier from deep, a Kovacic type. Worth a shot at least. Nobody saw him as a false #9, then Ange moved him up top and all of a sudden he's scoring twice in a game and making all these brilliant runs.

Still prefer to see more of him as a false 9 first personally

I'd prefer to see more of him as an inverted bench warmer

Most fans see an average player and want their club to upgrade

Our fans want to take that player and try him all over the pitch in the vain hope that he turns out good in some random position

I'm expecting someone to raise the possibility of him being competition for Vicario any day now

It's odd
