I don’t think they’ve got pints that fill from the bottom up though. Once you’ve had those you can’t go back.

I hope so, he looks a player.
It was pay 'what Bayern want' that I doubted. Lange will have a budget lower than that.
He is leaving Bayern due to wanting to play. That rules out Chelsea if he means it, Woolwich are the ones who if they came in would be the issue IMO.
If I was a betting man, I would guess that Bayern are happy with their Kane purchase and ask about some of our other players in the future.
They might even ask for first refusal to buy back on Tel.
None of that would bother me tbh.
I fear you're taking me too seriously
I feel your pain mate. I'm a Dons supporter.
Although, I have found over the years that when the misery of another futile season is reaching its depressing peak, I can change my focus to the upcoming season for my alternate club. I'm an optimist, so am at my best during pre-season! Unfortunately that hope is dashed far too quickly against the cold hard rocks of reality.
Both are veritable sleeping giants though. It will make the eventual success all the more sweet. Just hope I'm around to see it
Any haggling and it would leave us open to a hijack. Your right this could happen if it goes quick but if it drags I think no.
They are chasing Watkins so looks like they want a big bruiser for #9. They wanted Sesko first… next stop for them will be a late Hail Mary at Gyokeres.
It’s difficult on here to tell at times with some things that are posted!
Both and being brutally honest, at this point, niether,
I think he’d get minutes playing both for us but given that Richy can’t play 90min and Solanke is out, he’d get a chance to show he’s a 9 for us straight off the bat.
If there was a choice between signing Yamal and Wissa you wouldn't say 'well he's 17 and he's coming into a new league' would you?
I'm aware that Two hasn't hit the heights of Yamal but we are talking about a generational player who has a similar trajectory, you just don't miss out on these kind of players.
Will the Gooners bid the £100m needed to turn Villa’s heads?
There's some smart cookies in here that are opening themselves up to a world of hurt, you poor hopeful buggers
Woolwich are the one which worries me, they have the money, an excellent sporting project (makes me feel sick saying that) , managerial stability, are in the CL and one of the favourites for it. They can also offer lots of minutes. Seems like they may be focused on Watkins at the moment. For where Woolwich are this window, signing a proven PL striker to take them to a title makes more sense than signing a 19 year old who won't take them to a title lets be honest.
Chelsea are a concern because they have the money, but if the player is sensible he'll look at all their attacking options and think, if it's bad at Bayern, it'll be even worse there.
United have the prestige and wages, but it doesn't sound like they are in for him on a perm, only a loan. So that could work in our favour if Bayern and the player prefer a perm.
We can probably offer the money required on this deal for once, but we look a mess on the pitch, are in awful form, having our worst league season in decades, look unlikely to qualify for Europe next season, and manager instability.
I just can't see this happening for us.
Villa won't sell Watkins this window. Unlike us they're not idiots and there's not enough time for him to kick up a fuss if he did want to move
Yeah, they have needed a proper CF for years - I can see why they are after Watkins - hope Villa hold off but it seems that they are desperate for money and will take a huge sum for him.
Hopefully, he will go the way of their other huge signings of late and be played out of position and not move the needle for them in the slightest.
I wouldn't be getting too excited about the Tel signing just yet. I'd still rate it a lot more unlikely than likely to happen (maybe around 30% chance). It feels a bit like the Kolo Muani signing except the only difference is that I think Bayern might want to actually do the deal with us as we are offering a permanent deal and we have a good relationship with them.
Problem is just like Kolo Muani, I'm not sure we are Tel's preference so it'll take a lot to persuade him to come here. I feel like if someone else matches our offer then he'll join them over us. Basically we need Bayern to agree a deal with us and everyone else to back off - feels like a bit of a long shot.

Can we convert that rating (either) into points?Tel would change this window from a 1/10 (gets a 1 rather than a 0 because Kinsky could be a great signing) to a solid (LOL) 3.
Well I agree with that. Levy ain't funding air fares if they weren't taking it seriously.
Won't happen though.
We're signing fuck all because we're a joke, clownshoe club.
Who said anything about a plane. Tightarse Daniel probably gave him a bus pass and he's on a French highway as we speak.
