Watch us go after Theate, leveraging that special relationship we've built with Rennes with a 25 mil + Sanchez and/or Tanganga offer.

PSG also desperate to get rid of Wijnaldum and the lad is dreaming of coming back to the PL...perfect Dan Dan territory. Might even get us Ekitike on a loan to cover for Richy.

Not interested in other clubs as I'm not as invested or interested in the context to each unique situation.

Using other clubs as examples is pure whataboutery.

In the context of this club, it's inexcusable imo.

It's just Barca have been hawking him around all summer, which has led to scores of links at other Clubs. Nothing got done because the terms to take him weighed heavily in favour of Barca, so no Club was interested. It's all about Barca getting his astronomical wages off their books.

It's gone down to the wire because of the terms but now Clubs are smelling an opportunity in the last 48hrs of the window as Barca might have to move on their terms. 100% this would have peaked our interest and is worth seeing what could be negotiated (although personally I'm hugely dubious of the motive of the player, his injury record, and his desire to get back to Barca when loan finishes - we aren't some school for invalides recovery so they can get back to their club).

Our target is clearly Johnson (or one of him with a couple of irons in fires used to smoke out or fall back on as alternatives).

Any issues we have regarding getting rid of players though his hugely frustrating, especially as the players concerned aren't on massive PL wages. It's this area where we are underperforming and we are still feeling the effects of not having Munn and/or another under him with our Sporting Director/Technical Director operations. Still reflects on poor planning and execution.

We're looking to add two rotation players. It's not like even City has perfect depth, their bench is half academy players.

You say it as if it doesn't matter whether we get those players or not. We should be looking to make the squad stronger and add competition. As for city, who gives a fuck? They are treble champions, whereas we haven't won anything since 2008.

But surely the idea about Angeball is that there will be far more opportunities for far more players to score, therefore, the figures being bandied about do not seem that far off being possible?

Why are you even bothering replying? He doesn't believe a word he is saying and is just saying it to drive an agenda. If he believed it, he wouldn't have a problem accepting a simple 20 pound wager (which will go to a charity) that we will score the same or more as last year. Guy's a total fraud.
