Waking up to this is brilliant, it's not done but wow, he dominated us twice last year
Abit concerned about what's happening with the sexual assault charge but he definitely improves us, if we are willing to pay we must be confident nothing is going to happen
So that's interesting.. I'm not even fully sure what he is being investigated for or what the potential outcome is.Redcafe member:
His situation is nothing like Greenwood's. He was apparently only a witness to an alleged assault by one of his entourage at a club.
Someone I knew was arrested along with his totally innocent parents. The police were trying to get either him to confess and let his parents off the rap or for the parents to incriminate him.
On the day the case went to court the charges against the parents were dropped.
I have zero info about the case or Bissouma's actual involvement but the other person involved is related to Yves.
Lol. Not to be mean but Bissouma Bentancur Skipp is so much better than Winks PHE Skipp.Amazing signing. Could be one of the best bits of business we’ve done in years.
I get the Dembele comparisons, but I’m not sure he’s an out and out ball carrier like Dembele (not that he can’t develop that, of course). I think his instincts are more defensive.
But he uses his body weight in exactly the same way; he has that balance that he can shift, to shield the ball.
"seeing our rivals making moves in the market while all we've done is sign some nobody from Brazil"
hahahaa
Maybe the contracts will hedge this with a 'rape clause'? So we pay less to brighton/player in event of conviction of assault.Waking up to this is brilliant, it's not done but wow, he dominated us twice last year

Apparently this is the guy who has the inside dope in Brighton and he makes no mention of this deal:
Is there a reason people say "top draw" ? I've always known it to be "top drawer", when describing something of high quality.First really top draw midfield destroyer since we broke Wanyama, and before him Sandro. He's clearly not a boy scout....which was kind of what old walking dude Mourinho lamented. Still stick him in a room with Son for a bit Bissouma start rescuing kittens and opening food banks.
Monster ball winner and so secure at shielding possession.. Can't glide around players like Dembele did, but great at driving into space. Very safe passer.. doesn't really have great ability to spread play... given the nature of our midfielders now, four ball winners, maybe it it gives us more scope to prioritize distribution when targeting lcb.. ie Torres.Amazing signing.

You know... its a really good question. With blokes the bottom draw is the place all the crap keys washers Harry Winks get put so prehaps top draw is simply the reverse.Is there a reason people say "top draw" ? I've always known it to be "top drawer", when describing something of high quality.
A bit off topic, but I've seen it a few times lately
