Could do far worse than get the lad Calvert-Lewin from Everton. Shoots with either foot, heads the ball well, can lead the line and can play out wide. Very mobile and is quick as well. Would cost a pretty penny but any decent forward comes with a premium, especially a young English one.

I’d take him in a flash


Similar to Ings last season - every new season throws up a randomer that does well. Bony was once that guy mate.

Maybe. But he is young, whereas Bony and Ings had already had a few seasons. Absolutely no certainty Calvert-Lewin will be a consistent forward, but he has the attributes that make a decent forward and he can be coached to play the way a manager sees fit to get the best out of him

That said, Everton after their takeover are no longer short of a few quid so like Kane, the selling club hold all the aces and it would take a silly bid to secure his signature


I’m sure he got Walker sent off by pretending to be hurt the other season. I wouldn’t want him anywhere near us personally

As injured as they are, they are still around, but on the left we have a player that is not a left back and a fella who is not a footballer.
And every team in Europe knows that.
Except us.

Much as I agree we need a better left back than Bendy, the fact remains he is staying on the payroll and there is the opportunity to make Ake first choice when Dias & Laporte are both fit. We know Pep does not start a back 3 if he can help it. Cancelo & Zinchenko are back ups too, so I think until we lose Mendy we won't be signing another left back. Even with Zinch staying though we still have another slot provided Carson isn't in the CL squad - I would prefer a midfielder - eg Aouar even though Doyle & Palmer are looking promising - but another striker may be the way to go this window.


I don't want another experiment there, mate.
I remember Laporte being there and how that ended up for us. I want Ake to play what he knows, not something else.

It seems the left back it's an experiment for three years now: Delph, Zinch, last year Cancedo.


The last time Laporte played left back for us we beat Liverpool.

He also played when Liverpool ripped us a new one in the Champions League, 0-3.

Haaland two more goals today. If the board won’t work with specific agents I’d rather fuck them off at this point.

As it stands I’m worried about keeping silva and de Bruyne. Our only two creative players.

The missus told me Haarland had got two today during our game. ( gets texts in her phone). I have just watched the highlights on DAZN.com and he scored two well taken goals. Left peg too. Btw looks gangly but he covers a lot of ground very quickly.

Last season , i thought wait, let's see how he does over a period of time. Well , he is doing very ,very well . So who is going to nab him from Borrussia ?

It is only a matter of time . The kid is good, tall , strong and full of energy- also scores with both feet , easily.

It’s going to be chaos next summer with how many clubs will be in for him. He’ll have a good 5 or 6 to choose from I reckon.
