Andrew

Bit of digging suggests he spent most of last season playing deeper than the number 10 spot as a regular centre mid, think that will be our place for him tbh as he's a step up in terms of passing and dribbling to anyone we have there right now, colback or tiote sat further back giving it to him to distribute properly. Think we may see sissoko on the right wing a bit more this term too, he's decent at it and tends to play there in the France team. We don't look to be going for wingers either and we don't have many other options on the right.

Sterlings much younger though and Milner wasn't signing a new deal.

Because money's no object they've had their FFP punishment wiped out and need to add some homegrown players to the squad, might as well be one of the few that could possibly step up to their level.

That's no lower than he is now though as a villa player, and he'll make some daft money and get a shot at winning something. I'd do it if I were him, wouldn't be thinking "ah, better stay where I am in case I don't make it."

Thing about premier league footballers is that they all think they can make the step up, its that belief that got them where they are. He'll look at those players and think he's different

...why?

I have some really bad news about mark ronson...

You'd have the same problem if you thought she was gorgeous and made music you liked then?

Just got home from Best Kept Secret festival in the Netherlands, showered and feeling human again.

Can people not quote the spammers please, means editing fewer posts to get rid of the links.

Man U spent £25 million or so on Depay also.

I reckon there are probably PLAYERS making more than that. ITS ABSURD!

Finished the main story last night, need that new game + mode...

He'll be the head to roll as an excuse next season.

Yes

Don't you pin this shit on me!

I have absolutely no idea, its a free time black hole. If the time is noted on your saves I'll have a look tonight. I've loads left to do though, a lot of exploring, contracts, side quests that I haven't looked at yet. Still got a fair bit of Gwent left to play though i've stuck a deck together now that is pretty much able to beat anyone unless my opening hand is crap.

Like a low rent river plate.

I think I'm coming up to the end of the main story. Really hope the rumours that one of the free DLCs will be a new game + mode (as there have been pieces of code been found on the PC version that imply its coming) as I've done a ton of sidequests and built up a nice range of gear. Really do want a storage chest somewhere now though, I'm carrying round 2 full sets of armour and weapons.

It would begin to explain some of his football posts

His goals last season seemed to be a lot down to the fact that Kevin De Bruyne is ace than him being a particularly good striker.

See this trotted out about injury prone players a lot. How often do they really happen?

Tbh though if the coaches have gone, Ashley has left the board and then he sacked charnley. MA would be leaving himself in the position of having to deal with all of that work himself, something he clearly has no appetite for. Charnley will be the next head to roll after he's dealt with this summer but things still aren't satisfactory i reckon

Liverpool looking like having to pay far more for Ings than the 6-8mil they offered with Spurs bid being used to signify what he's actually worth Honestly reckon Spurs knew exactly what they were doing with that.
