    Honestly, no idea. I'm hearing loads of noise. I don't like it to be honest. I always prefer to spot your own talent, it's such a Chelsea move to roll in with huge money after the fact. (Ironically they had two ATG on the cheap and let them go lol)

    You like to have great players around and be linked with big names but it's all a bit too much.



    Is he a long term Salah replacement? Is Nuñez done?

    Like I said it's all very vague.

    I used to love Primark back in 2012,2013.

    Sports direct too.

    Now I find them a bit depressing. Once you know how that stuff gets made it sort of ruins the experience as it were. Plus it never really changes. Huge baskets of footballs. T shirts, 3 for a tenner! How about these Karrimor Rucksacks, same as last season.....

    Since I started work in Kew I honestly think Marks and Spencers Kew is the last "Dept" store I set foot in and even then the only reason I walked around it is I was looking for toothpaste. They didn't have it. Just a huge expensive food hall and clothes.

    I don't know about the new manager but the old guy looked like he was wanted for historical sectarian crimes.

    The old guy suited them so much better, he was permanently scowling and unblinking and released instas of himself doing dips. New guy votes green and eats tofu, kulturkampf

    They should probably focus more on a quality backup for Konate and Van Dijk

    I sincerely hope Slot isn't going to go the old Rodgers route of trying to just blow teams away and score more than we concede

    I remember Spurs brought in Juande Ramos who won them their only trophy in years until this year. He banned pasta sauce and shit diets generally..

    He was fired and recalled as "one of those foreign purists unsuited to our game" etc.

    1-1 my 5 quid bet after Spain looked so bad missing chances might pay off but if Spain are any good they'll go back to work and finish this.

    Sellik loan a man city youngster called 'pussey' (snigger). No option to buy since Man City want to keep him so some fans moaning about it but he simply looks outwith our talent bracket so I'll take a year of him. Whisper it but young 'Van Dijk' vibes from the highlight vids. If that plays out we'll have just upgraded our two weakest positions (LB & LCB) with two guys way above our paygrade. We seem to have sorted our centre midfield creativity deficit out with this Danish boy too. Two decent wingers in to replace Kuhn & (injured) Jota and we might be a solid CL proposition this season

    Reminds me of our 2011 season when we won the Championship. Taarabt was the star obviously, but we had solid workhorses like Derry, Hill and Mackie who'd always put in a shift, inconsistent talents like Faurlin and Routledge, but a sprinkling of really talented loan signings too, who were obviously going to be stars in the future. Kyle Walker was our right back that season.

    Yeah I'm surprised how against it most celtic fans seem to be. If this guys as good as Kyle walker it's way better to have him for one year than none

    I'd be surprised if they let him go, especially as their PIF guy came out to say he wasn't going anywhere. They have the money to say no and damn the consequences.

    I'm just not sure about this.....I'm not sure he's signing, I'm not sure I like it, its divisive, expensive, we dodged a bullet last time with that guy £110m from Brighton.

    I read a couple of reports that Isak told Newcastle he wanted to move on and LFC was where he hoped to go.

    I want Spurs to keep signing good players because I want Richarlison back and I think, even though he never played for Moyes, would like to come back.

    Brighton did a three year jumble sale on all of their star players. And somehow Everton ended up with fucking Neal Maupey. The guy so delusional he thought he could play for Argentina in the World Cup. Bought him for £20 mil and finally sold him to the only team stupid enough to buy him (Marseille) for £3.4 mil.

    Newcastle rejected a bid of around £100m and now, apparently, Liverpool have no more interest in him. I can't see them stopping at one bid.
