Cover for Maddison is still needed if he gets injured or is playing shite (which is a distinct possibility). His passing game sets up a lot of our wingers plays and we don't have another player with his passing skills.

Kulusevski is ok in there at a pinch, Bergvall seems to have a confident passing game and might do well in there. Donley was a good creator in the 21s, not sure how those skills transfer to the big boys.

Isn't Bergvall cover for Maddison?

We are firmly in the Neto and Solanke sagas. They will both be dragged out and eventually we will sign one of them for a lot of money with a small reduction on the original asking price and the club will expect us to be grateful they got one over the line. Even though they know damn well we needed both AND Eze.

It’s a scam.

Getting mad at a scenario which hasn't happened yet 😄

Ok. How about Toney (40mil) + Chiesa (25m) = Solanke (65mil)

Nothing personal against Solanke. But 65mil is about 35mil too much for him.

Its his release fee, it's meant to be a deterrent and shows what he's worth to Bournemouth.

The price is the price, if the club are willing to invest that much in a key area then we just have to accept it.

Not really.

You (or I) may not have wanted him but the noise was Ange did.

At £34m he was theoretically obtainable.

Not enough was done.

The Chav cunt had no interest in joining us. He’s been at the Blue Scum academy since he was 8. His family are all Chav Cunts. Was desperate to stay at Blue Scum. On the other hand, Levy does pay top wages … oh wait hang on 🤣 🤣

Anyway Gallagher has great work rate and presses for days but technically limited -We need good technical players. Plus he’s a Chav Cunt so No Thank You.

And Ange wanted to BJ for 47M so not taking Ange’s talent evaluation as gospel.

So much hatred for Johnson.

Tell me, what did you think of Lennon?

No hatred for Johnson. Hatred saved for Gallagher and Chavs.

Just think BJ was overvalued at 47M. I don’t think that’s controversial. The overinflated fee is on Ange/Levy/our transfer team not Johnson - And as is our Bald Cunt’s way, Johnson is on a fairly modest wage for a starter at a Big 6 club so again no hate. In fact, I hope he proves me wrong this season.

Think it's very unlikely he ends up at Spurs this summer, all for him running down his contract and Chelsea getting nothing

He only needs to sit it in there until they sack the manager, which we’d expect likely at some point in the next 12 months. He’d be mad to move, but like we experienced with Kane, sometimes footballers don’t think about the money and just want to get out of the club. Especially if they’ve been treated badly, which looks the case here.

...but the 'Bald Cunt' still shelled out £47million for a single player... Worth it or not!

Sometimes we can't win... either pay big, but get slated for paying overinflated prices, or haggle low, and get accused of being a cheapskate!

Which is it?
