what do you base that on?
Oddsmakers also have Man Utd above us.
We are 6th/7th favourites alongside Newcastle, just ahead of Brighton.
Villa and Forest I think we will comfortably overtake this season.
No chance united finish above us.
Odd rumour circulating by a Sao Paulo-supporting poster that we've hijacked their deal for Marcos Leonardo from Al-Hilal
Exclusive behind the scenes look at Lange delivering transfer news to Paratici and giving Levy the nod at the end
What do I base Simons being a central player on?Is this a serious question?
Watching him for Leipzig and the fact that every single bit of reporting and writing about him mentions him as a central attacking midfielder. Oh and the fact that we literally haven’t got a single fit CAM until January with both Madders and Kulu crocked. He was very very clearly signed to play centrally not on the wing, though perhaps he could play an Eze-esque wing fielder role in a 3-4-2-1.
Aside from that I made it up.
This isn't the point.
The point is selling Guehi (their captain) on the last day of the window and not replacing him, that's why he kicking off it looks like and he's completely within his rights, anyone would do the same thing
Yes please
but too late now
That would hardly make sense after Kolo Muani
Harsh on Alonso seeing as he never managed him.
Does make me laugh.
There was somebody before claiming there was loads of clubs willing to pay over 30m for Solomon too
25% of the time he didn't play on the left. 11% of the time, he played in the middle. That must have been when you were watching him then. If that's the case, fair enough, I can see why you'd think that but come on. Opta isn't like the BBC using line ups for these stats. It's based on heat maps
If this is the level of intent we are going to show going forward then I’m happy , I don’t mean just about money spent but we are signing quality players , if we can do the same again in January and next summer then we will be in a very good position
Xabi Alonso coached Leverkusen you absolute weapon, you clearly just googled this and are way out of your depth.
Simons played LAM in a 4-2-2-2, and was clearly their central creative force if you actually watched Leipzig play, which again, you’ve just established that you clearly fucking haven’t.
This place is a joke.
/Slowly takes the bong away from Art Vandaley as he exhales a massive plume of smoke.
Mate, I think the 2 signings in the last few days seem good. Time will tell. I don't do overboard.
But let's not allow our minds to disappear into a world of maze and mystery.
Peak Pochettino would absolutely be right with Woolwich and Liverpool as title favourites. It was simply that bloody good
I am not sure who in this squad gets into the peak Pochettino squad.
Yeah, it's either complete bollocks or out of date
It's 3:45am babysitting my infant nephew.
I'm lucky to be able to type.
The fact they want an obligation and not an option is a red flag for me, I’m happy to swerve this one then be stuck with another player we can’t use or shift on
