Yeah, that's on Boehly and his Saudi puppet masters.
Actually thought it was me who got fouled. Thanks for confirming mate. I don’t mind upsetting the odd gooner but not one of ours.You know I foul voted the other guy, not you ?
I've just read back and can see why the confusion could be there.

They will overtake us this season, another week comes to a close and still no CB's.
4 weeks until the season starts and we have to actually bed any potential signings in
You think we will get top class CBs in 2 weeks before the season starts?2 weeks can be plenty of time to do that. What would be the point on buying in the winter transfer market if signings couldn't be bedded in quickly.
Would 4 weeks be better? Absolutely. Is it a disaster? Not really
We might get one in but not two, that I can see.You think we will get top class CBs in 2 weeks before the season starts?
Looks to me like Levy is at the wheel and we are headed for a late window mad panic
Still reckon perri could have played CCB in back 3. He can pass with left abd right would have been able to spray them passes out much better than dier. Let’s face dier didn’t actually defend any way. Plus perri is far more technical than dier and would have taken the ball out much better.Certainly in his second season (iirc, starting in preseason) he'd deteriorated quite a bit and was making stupid fouls to compensate - but yeah, he brought a winning mentality as much as anything else and we definitely saw the benefits at the time.
I like your optimism
Thanks. Not sure what I got banned for really, made a very lighthearted comment and I guess certain posters who have an agenda couldn’t help themselves & in the process proved me right.
Is what it is.
Big deals like this take time
Skipp can’t play where he played the other day. Often he was the furthest player and in the pen box. No way has the speed, technical skill or goal scoring ability to play an attacking 8. Think it was folly of Ange to play him there. He often looked lost and players sometimes bypassed him in passing the ball.Yeah, agreed.
Sarr looks ready to play. More so than Skipp. TBH Devine looked a better fit than Skipp yesterday, unless Skipp is ok to play the 6.
It's difficult to say at this stage. But I think keeping Harry Kane will make a difference of at leat 3 or 4 places.
A premature estimate would be with Kane around 6th. Without Kane 9th or 10th
When other 'Big 6' clubs have missed out on European football altogether, they've tended to use the situation to their advantage and pushed the boat out to come back stronger.
Despite our huge wealth and unrivalled FFP wriggle room, I just don’t see us doing the same, unfortunately
I think that’s going to be a feature for all of our midfielders, regardless of where they sit out of possession. Him and Biss were alternating runs into the box.Skipp can’t play where he played the other day. Often he was the furthest player and in the pen box.

Think I’d go with that and we do t need any more midfielders. Maddison is already taking one if the spots so only leaves 2 more places.He's better than Skippberg in the double #8 role.
His only competition is Ndombele who will not play 90min every week.
Tier 1 - Bissouma, Bentancur
Tier 2 - Sarr, Ndombele, Gio
Bottom Tier - Skip, Hojbjerg
Yeah rathe r have Devine in the back up tier tbhThink I’d go with that and we do t need any more midfielders. Maddison is already taking one if the spots so only leaves 2 more places.
Lol, I wasn't talking about you.Guessing you basket short of a picnic, who mentioned CB's??? Did I NO... did i mention morale or being classy about "new signing" etiquette NO....
I said it a BS story line media will milk till the summer .... I dunno wtf you're on but ....![]()

Maybe it's not just about the moneyReally don't get why we haven't at least signed VDV, then see how the sales go for the second CB.
Seems bizarre we can't outlay around £30mil
