That one has been going all summer, so we aren't the only ones taking forever on certain deals. Kane to bayern has also been going on for weeks
-
Interesting. Am curious as to how the opponents look to counter - presumably big switch to winger on opposite flank who is staying wide and cheating?
-
Probably waiting for the Fabinho money to arrrive
-
Don’t think we were ever in it
-
Don’t think that is fair at all. He finished the match against everton after Richarlison did him, basically playing on one leg
-
Pretty sure he did in his first season, in part because of the injury crisis
-
Freeing up a forward spot for mbappe?
-
Have Madrid replaced Benzema yet?
-
Given the state of the midfield for most of last season, I'm actually quite excited to see so much change in there - just as long as the replacements are of sufficient quality, which is always the worry with fsg's stingyness
-
All part of the PR spin
-
He's big on the baseball side of fsg
-
I get the point, most players are replaceable (and I think it might help Jurgen if we refresh more of the squad). However Alison and Trent, just don't see how you upgrade on those two. With the latter you could do something different in terms of how we set up, but just don't see how you adequately replace Alisson
-
He made Bakayoko look good, which is no mean feat. Reports at the time were he was a big factor in that CL run of Monaco
-
Of all the players out there, why are they chucking all this money at Henderson? He isn't exactly Messi or Ronaldo.
-
Absolutely awful stuff. Hopefully stops people banging on about him wasting his talent. From the outside looking in it was clear there was something going on with him, but no idea it was anything this bad
-
It may not be a bad thing to move him on. Two years left on a hefty contract, which could easily be seen as not worth it by the end of the season if he is not contributing much. On pitch he fits the new midfield set up the least of the experienced midfielders. It's his leadership skills I fear we will miss, but maybe him going will create the space for others to step up into that gap?
-
Timber doesn't head the ball, so would steer clear myself He definitely claimed to have been a session musician for glitter
-
I theory yes. In practice they both got injured in pre-season and that scuppered any chance of moving them on for fees
-
Indeed. Milner was fantastic for us, but we had no foresight on that and the 7 used to be our most iconic shirt and he wasn't exactly King Kenny. Really don't see any difference with Mount getting theirs (other than I hope he fails spectacularly of course)
-
We gave 7 to Milner...
-
Or back to Barca on a free. Xavi would love to have him mentor their young centre mids
-
He is massive and carries the ball up the pitch really well. Both things we were missing last season. No idea about his all round game, but I always rated mousa dembele and he has a similar skillset
-
Another one whose father was a pro! Definitely our thing at the moment
-
Probably better suited than he was to the advanced position on the right side in the run in. He might even be Trent's cover, given that is going to be really hard for a normal right back to cover
-
We might be looking to use henderson in the deeper roles, which would give more time to train someone up
