ochfacepalm:Toby Alderweireld
Toby Alderweireld remains another option, largely because Tottenham have made it clear they are willing to sell.
Sources close to both United and Tottenham insist no formal bid has been lodged, although Spurs are braced for a deadline-day offer -- which could include either Chris Smalling or Marcos Rojo to satisfy Mauricio Pochettino's desire to find a replacement before Alderweireld is allowed to leave.
ochlol:United demand lower fees for defender - sources
Yep fingers and toes. Yer never know been a weird window anything or nothing could happen tomorrow.
Really hope this is true! Serves Villa right for screwing Grealish over
My personal favourite bit - "Bruce and one of the first team coaches are in a car following him to Fulham to try and change his mind"
Bet the cunt still stops at Greggs on the way down, the fat cunt.
Other than the signing of the contract bit
Hold onto your butts
I’d rather sign no one than pay £71.6m for a bleeding goalkeeper.. The worlds gone mad.
If my club's no.1 goalkeeper was Karius and I could get Alisson for £71m then I'd do it in a heartbeat. Getting a top quality keeper in to replace one that drops it into his own net every two weeks is a huge upgrade.
We are fortunate those are not the two only options
On the contrary.... Poch evidently wants both Rose & Toby out so he's part of the 'party'.
Poch is picky as fuck when it comes to players too (even if one does wanna exonerate him of blame from some of the cheaper punts in the past).
If all he wanted was an indiscriminate £XXm's worth of players I'm sure Levy would have delivered to that remit long in the window.
Let's mature the discussion beyond 'Levy stole back the war-chest'.
Seems to put 20% on any transfer fee
Oh I’d rather have Roy Carroll than Karius but they could upgrade with a 20m signing 71.6m is absolutely ridiculous.
Well, that's the water we're swimming in now, keep up or don't.
No oil prince wrote a check for that transfer, that's money from bean-counting suits just like ours.
So three rbs and one lb
WARMI sounds like it would be fucking fun as hell to develop, honestly, from a total database/spreadsheet nerd angle.Are you implying there should be a stat WAR(MI) = Win Above Replacement (Money Invested)??
In the game where Juventus knocked us out of the CL, we were visually running out of steam and ideas. We brought on Lamela and Llorente. Better options could have seen us through. Now I know that's all hypothetical talk but it's something I believe.
Speaking just to Juventus knocking us out and turning to Lamela/Llorente - they both came on when we were chasing goals and we've already covered that ground. We hadn't played in a week, and even then it was Rochdale in the FA cup, Palace in the league, and Rochdale cup replay. There was no reason to be gassed - hypothetically speaking I imagine our odds of winning that match would be higher with one "world-class" CM to play the entire 90 likely preventing us from falling behind to begin with than 3 good options to throw on for 20 minutes desperately seeking a goal after the first XI had let us fall behind.
I think it comes down to priorities really. League challenges need a top bench, but we're unlikely to compete with City because they can afford a bench and starting XI well beyond our financial dreams. Cup competitions need a great XI with a bench capable of rotating and maintaining CL position status in the league as required.
I feel like our bench is capable of rotating in and maintaining 2-4 in the league. And I believe we're a lot closer to a great XI than a City-challenging 22. That's why I say I feel like we have a better opportunity at winning the CL in the near future than the league. We're 1-2 top players away from being able to stand out own with any 11-14 in the world on a good day. We're probably 7 players away from keeping pace with City over 38 matches.
You’ve been rumbled mate. Only have to read your posts and any time anyone is critical of Levy’s policies you put some “inside info” spin on it. You might be able to fool these JCLs but I have seen enough to see through your little charade.
You have a vested interest and I will find out what it is and out you for it.
You people are making absolute asses of yourself. More newspaper rumors same as all of them and you absolutely lose your minds. Saying we won’t finish top 4 planning protests. Embarrassing. They play you like a fiddle and you are happy to let them. As long as it means you can rage at our club.
I’m going to wait until actual things happen with our club, instead of people just writing about it.
You make redditors look like level-headed analysts. Embarrassing.
