West Brom and ... somebody else also looking to take him on loan. Sky Sports reporting that he doesn't want to be a makeweight in any deal, which might mean Spurs' approach for Berahino is scuppered.

I reckon it'll take him a while, swinging back and forth between the poles, before he can run the same kind of line as Bellamy/Shearer; barely controlled aggression.

See him go a bit Temuri afterwards?

I'd expect a Shelvey to be 1st choice centre mid, Colback, Anita & Saivet to be played alongside him depending on opposition, form or injury.

Deserved more attention. Well, we're likely to sell Tiote, by all accounts. Colback and Anita will most likely be rotated with Saivet and Shelvey, no? We were crying out for squad depth, now we've got some depth in central midfield you're concerned? Both can play emergency fullback as well.

Wonder what his record is if you only take the 2nd half of his seasons? @HappyFace

Getting bored of "big clubs" talking about the officials to distract fans/press from their sides' poor performances or that they were simply matched by others.

Christ alive, my heart

Please raise your hand if you anticipated CT's recollections to centre around filling his pie hole?

Probably isn't like.

"Caligula" Yeah probably not going to be that work appropriate.

I tend to wait until the 1st teamer wants a new contract to reflect his form/improved ability. I say No. If he moans on, I offer (without transfer-listing) him to foreign clubs. because I'm petty.

2, but you get 1/2 for calling them Manure

When do you sell the 1st teamer who is stopping your highly rated, promising kid get a starting spot?

I was just answering your questions

Not sure he'd want to swap a couple of extra training sessions for training sessions, and matches

>£7m

Doesn't sound like Mike.

Best Regens thus far

Found that happens every window. I've recently turned down a deal "worth" £70m for Perez and he threw a wee strop. Trouble is, I don't need the money, I didn't want to sell to a rival, and it was £20m up front, the rest over 2yrs & if he plays 50 games. If I could have negotiated £50m up front, and the rest as part of a structured deal I might have been interested. If I'm going to sign Breel Embolo or Dybala to replace Perez I'm going to need £100m+ To be honest I just concentrate on buying youth from all over the world, immediately putting them out on loan for a work permit and then introducing them to the squad. So far I've got a few regen strikers who have been scoring for fun in the U18s/21s and then when out on loan and too many left sided attacking players than I know what to do with.

People are throwing an £8m fee around for Tiote?

You're going to look pretty stupid when it ends 0-0

I'd not be parading our new signing(s) at 1/2 time.
