I came across your namesake in my bedtime reading of Sunset at Blandings last night. He was an incompetent big game hunter who got eaten by a lion. It's a cautionary tale. I know metaphor is not your strong suit over there but think on old boy.

Remains to be seen doesn't it, Bravo was recognised as one of the best around before he signed for us but that did little to help him settle. Fingers crossed Ederson settles quicker and produces what he's capable of.

We really look like we are spending a shit load of cash.

It means that finally someone bought Bony and paid us something.

A grammatical correction by phips may be considered by many as a rare and valued privilege.

Phips old chum, a word of advice: quit whilst you're behind and just hope JC doesn't go nuclear on you.

He's magnificent in full flow and you'll be verbally dismembered.

It's not a good omen if Yaya is around for another season. Today's twittering that we've failed on the Fabinho front could well be true.
Equally depressing to see us being linked with that donkey William Carvalho, which may be another consequence.

I don't see the connection. Yaya coming back for another season is well worth it. He's still one of our best players and was quite consistent under Pep.

Again, he'd be here one more season. Hard to see a player being so upset as he would still get plenty of games even with Yaya here.

All I read was a post that said 'Mendy is flying in!'

Where have you discovered the rest?

There was later post from Damien 10 that said the GPS had been turned off but that was deleted it seems. He's a long standing plane-spotter so the BMs took notice- he appears to have been inebriated. Apologies for reposting it at that early stage.
