Kid Dynamite

Probably the final nail in the Maddison coffin if this one goes through

I know you can't trust everything you read in the papers but there are consistent stories from multiple reliable journalists linking us with interest in/bids for Diaby, Isak, Maddison, Harrison, Broja, Sesko, Cornet, Werner, Gordon and Ramos. You start to wonder how far down the list we are now with Pedro and whether it was worth just offering the asking price for someone at the top of the list in the first place. It's also mental trying to buy Pedro 6 days after Watford have sold their other striker...

It's the second but we seem to struggle with though...

Andersen has had his life here mind

Is a fruit lube like a fruit loop? Just slippier?

Cool beans bro. There's an ignore function on here if it makes you feel better 😘

Lose your boner for me poogle, no-one cares

If I had the choice I'd choose Pulisic over Hudson-Odoi. Both are preferable over Almiron and Murphy thouh

If we end up with Pedro and Hudson Odoi I assume that means we give up on "preparing a bid" for the Benfica lad

This is a perfect opportunity to get shot of Ritchie, Matty and Murphy.

I'm firmly in the bed wetter camp now mind

Rumours that Chelsea might offer them Gallagher or Broja on loan to sweeten the deal

Simplistic is my middle name ginger balls

Or minus Botman and plus Maddison...

That's flawed logic though. The order we upgraded new positions WOULD be irrelevant if we had £500mil to spend and brought in 11 new players this window. When you work to a budget and there are clearly gaps in the squad up front it's common sense to use the money you have to strengthen those positions first, rather than compromise on the likes of Isak, Maddison and Diaby because we don't have enough money left in the pot

Willock, ASM and Almiron are meant to be the players providing chances for Wilson, and they are all failing miserably. That's not a blip in form, all 3 have flattered to deceive since Howe came to the club. A blind man on a galloping horse could see that CF, LW, RW, CAM were the positions we needed upgrades in, so it's questionable that we dropped £55mil on a GK, LB and CB first. Reportedly leaving us with about £30mil left to play with and struggling to agree staggered payments or loan deals for any attackers. Murphy and Wood are our game changers off the bench atm and if we don't fix that in the next fortnight we will be grinding out a few more 0-0s this season

After yesterday's showing we should be writing a cheque for £60mil this morning

The fans wax lyrical when they spunk fortunes on Lukaku, Sancho, Ronaldo, Pogba, Varane, Fernandes, Fred, Wan Bissaka etc. Then massive revisionism happens when they're shit and it's the owners fault for sanctioning the wrong players. Fuck the lot of them, the entitled pricks

Meh

Hopefully a wake up call that we are light up front. Nowt on the bench to change a game

Botman at LB!?

Was reading about Justin Fashanu recently and was reminded of this; In his autobiography, Clough recounts a verbal dressing-down he gave Fashanu after hearing rumours that he was going to gay bars. "'Where do you go if you want a loaf of bread?' I asked him. 'A baker's, I suppose.' 'Where do you go if you want a leg of lamb?' 'A butcher's.' 'So why do you keep going to that bloody poofs' club?"'
