I hope this is us. No idea if he is any good or not, but it will be a huge FUCK YOU to UEFA and FFP.

Not a prayer we are in for that prima-dona. Massive ego & the wrong age. Undoubted talent but would unsettle the dressing room. Imagine him & Mendy - fuck that

More mud-slinging, imho. Gives rags fans another excuse to moan about us "inflating transfer prices"!

The real R. Giggs would be a great signing to wind rags up, given how much he now hates his brother. Perhaps he could work in our publicity department. :D :D :D

Real signed Luka Jovic from Frankfurt for 60M. Add that to Militao and theyve already spent over 100M and Hazard hasnt even been announced yet.

No way. No thanks.
Actually prefer it if we signed Johnny Evans.

Rodri just scored ~a Mahrez~.

He looks a lot like Fernie in his movement.

It’s been awfully quiet recently. Get ready for or to start gathering pace again before our final game on Sunday!


All the news has been around Chelsea taking UEFA to CAS over their ban. I wonder if they are waiting for that to play out first before giving us ours. Even if they do give us one, we will appeal and it will delay it one window.


It's FIFA that hands out transfer bans as far as I understand, not UEFA, although I hear some speculate UEFA would give us one instead of a CL ban, but can they even do that?

Saul Goodman wrote:With Barca as the favorites for Griezmann and them having splashed on De Jong already I'm getting cautiously optimistic that we might pip them to De Ligt. Nico appears to be leaving and Kompany needs replacing; that leaves Laporte & Stones plus Garcia.

I guess that Barca could sell the underwhelming Coutinho and fund the De Ligt deal....or they could use it to help cancel out of the outlay on Griezmann


I'm most worried that Liverpool will get De Ligt. I think it's a real possibility.

Not sure how Barca can afford all of these players in one window when I hear they are funding their wages from loans, allegedly.

He's a top player and what he offers he'd be a perfect fit as he can also play as a striker.

I think only happens if we are selling Leroy. The fee won't be as much of an issue then.

Expect them to struggle to sell Bale as well.

More likely a loan, and they'll have to pay a good portion of his wages, especially if Spurs wind up with him.

Surely this must be the year when Bale finally joins the rags? :D :D :D

Unsure why he's talking about first team football now. He literally said "it's my last big contract"....

Stinks of Milner this.

Hes gotta go. Zidane said he wouldnt have played Bale if he had a 4th sub.
