  1. We won’t touch him, notorious drink problem (and he’s dead).
  2. I read something on Tomori by some random who watches a lot of Eyetie football and he reckoned Tomori flatters to deceive and isn’t particularly consistent. Seems Southgate agreed.
  3. We create a bucketload of chances irrespective of their attacking weaknesses, at the back we’re not so resolute, Pope gets hurt again and we’re screwed. Improve what’s in front of him and you are also mitigating that. CB always was my opinion/#1 need, then developmental striker (we’ve done that) then RW and maybe a #6 although Hall may end up being the latter if extra protection needed. It’s as much “out of possession” contribution as the attacking stuff and Miggy in particular brings a shitload of that. Howe in his PC actually referred to/mentioned that. Yeah I’d love an elite winger but it ain’t critical to where we are just now IMO, it’s an icing on the cake sort of thing. Who are the elite in their early 20’s workaholic wingers? I have no idea tbh but Guehi is elite and likely will get better in a position of pretty imminent need.
  4. Yep, better to replace a player a year too early than a year too late.
  5. Aye, a department for everything. Leather goods was upstairs, the counter I worked faced the doors/stairs, remember once looking up to see a whole rail of leather jackets disappearing down the stairs at pace 😂
  6. Worked there, weekend job, when I was 16. Menswear dept, are you being served had nowt on Parrish’s. Old Mr. (Harry) Foster, could sell a suit of armour as a swimming aid that bloke, suit arms too long “they’ll ride up with wear sir”. He was amazing. Customer in front of mirror checking the fit and Harry with a handful of the back of the suit jacket in his hand to make it look ok at front, whilst brushing the shoulders, turn customer round and repeat with the front grabbed. Fucking master he was, the number of happy customers who left with suits that fit like shit was legion.
  7. CB is a priority because Schar is getting old as is Burn, Botman is fucked and out for ages (and may not be the same player when back) and Krafth/Lascelles are “last resort” CB’s and the other two are kids. We’re buying for now/the near future. RW is next priority I reckon and aye it’s Miggy/Murphy but also Gordon or Barnes if necessary. CB is way above RW in current needs. I think VVD is way over-rated these days and probably always was, he’s lucky he’s not played his career with strikers the level of a Henry or Shearer knocking about.
  8. It would appear US “Ivy league” schools turn out the same level of great intellect as Eton etc. Vance has said “before the 18th century immigration” there was no ethnic conflict in the US” erm…………..
  9. It’s a bit of a reach calling a terraced house loft conversion a penthouse mind.
  10. Schar is getting on and there’s no guarantee Botman will come back the same as he was. Guehi can play either CB spot (doesn’t he play left CB for Palace?) he’s young and would ultimately be Schar’s successor while also being a bit of Botman insurance.
  11. The cost to this years accounts is £13mill (if he’s £65mill) or £10 mill (if he’s £50 mill) so aye bugger all tbh. Obviously wages on top.
  12. I suspect we’re in the midst of a you want £65mill, ok we’ll give you £40 mill up front, £15 mill next year and £10mill year after OR you can have £55mill up front and additional £5Mill in a years time sort of game.
  13. Read somewhere he stalled the move as wanted us to pay up his contract so he could join them for free, the cunt, suspect he sits around and leeches for another year.
  14. Call your bank and tell them don't pay it - Direct Debit guarantee should allow that.
  15. That sounds suspiciously like bait to wind up the anti-Miggy morons tbh
  16. Was asked, but Ginola vetoed it, he didn’t want to be out-hunked
  17. Begs the question, how was the 170 previous offences cunt still on the streets (thanks Tory government underfunding of the justice system).
  18. The same way players who go to Liverpool develop asthma.
