Bit early to make that claim
MADDs is our best attack minded player. Without him we are dog awful.
I don't mean to say he's going to banish them and bin them off, but I think based on what we've seen so far we can say with confidence neither of them starts against PSG or Burnley, other players have gotten to the front of the line in those positions.
Always been difficult quarry. We were wandering in the wilderness before we got lucky and found Harry Kane in a box in the attic.
Fucking hell. Complaining about a transfer 9 years ago and most of the facts are made up.
Go and pick some flowers.
Leeds owned by SF49ers now yeh?
............Are their lot a bit Trumpy?
I responded to a comment which put out a 'factual' list (which is not made up) of player transfers of 10 years.... This is a transfer thread forum.
If you have problem with this, I cant help it.
Leeds are the most racist club going and he will be an idol for them
Ok well let’s start with May.I responded to a comment which put out a 'factual' list (which is not made up) of player transfers of 10 years.... This is a transfer thread forum.

What is this based on:
Is it based on a better source than his agent?
« Sadio had five offers in the summer and financially all of them were good. We wanted the right team, with the right coach at the right moment to arrive at the next level. That is the reason Sadio went to Anfield. »
Liverpool's Sadio Mane didn't reject Spurs move because of wages - agent
Sadio Mane's agent has dismissed suggestions that the Liverpool forward rejected a summer move to Tottenham Hotspur due to his wage demands.

OFCOURSE... you will believe the agent who put this quote in 2017. The very next summer Mane signed a better deal to 150k a week
I am sure, the agent will always say the truth....
Go read up on David Webb - scout who was at Southampton with Poch, and followed him to Spurs and he talks about how close the move was...
No thanks. If you have a quote and a source, I’ll take it. Otherwise stop making stuff up.OFCOURSE... you will believe the agent who put this quote in 2017. The very next summer Mane signed a better deal to 150k a week

Also pretty sure the whole "sissoko on deadline day" thing was proven to be a fictional dramatisation. Sissoko himself said the whole everton thing as weird because he was at Hotspur Way the whole day, and the whole process had been going on for weeks.
As much as people want to see the negatives, we got to a CL final with Moussa, and he was key to the winning Moura goal against Ajax. The idea that Mane was the difference between us or Liverpool winning all those trophies is complete nonsense. We had 2 finals, 3 semi finals, and 2nd place under Poch - so the chances were there. He lacked the conviction, publicly, to get the team over the line - something Ange had, despite his other shortcomings.
Theres a new thing called Google- in just 5 words, it has magical powers to give you 100s of articles from different sources saying the same thing that Mane was close to signing to spurs...
I dont want to waste the forum time on helping you search....oh , just dont believe in what agents says
Our Crown Prince of Facts and Logic will surely note that the second quote does not in any way refute the first.
"Sadio Mane was definitely another one at the time, but Liverpool pipped us to the post. Pochettino at the time obviously had that relationship with him from Southampton. That was definitely a factor, Tottenham were pretty close, but Liverpool came in."
Insightful.
Would be a good signing.
I doubt you have ever seen him play.
Err, what - we came to finals but didnt win...it was luck, it wasnt the manager , it wasnt the players - whose fault is it then for last 20 yrs. If you say Levy, then what did he do wrong. I am just trying t o talk about the process that landed in us unable to sell players for 10 yrs.
What are we discussing here in this thread ? Why bother wanting the next big thing or wanting best players - because they are the players who make that difference
You can chose to be emotional - thats fine. I am not disrespecting the player but just commenting on the process in landing the players
Agreed. This season he's been immense, granted, and with his size and ball playing ability, on his day, there aren't many better. But over the last 3/4 years before this one, he's been either sublime or a complete horror show.
If he were to go to United, I feel like he'd get swollen up there. Also, why would you go from PSG to United, that seems insane.
