proper grifter isn't he. is there a point to people like this?

might not get in to their first team regularly. think its sensible.

injury prone and old. but of course, still a very good player. not the future though.

he's mustard.

pretty much this. one is agent related, he knows pretty much he can get in to our team the other is the player thinking he'll make a difference at Milan, when they probably can't afford him. both are upgrades, both worth a short wait for.

hopeful that the good work done by the team in charge of transfers comes to fruit soon. think the Thorgen Hazard potential transfer sort of makes sense as a tactically proficient wide player. he's not a st max (dribbler). but he's also more of a worker bee. if he's not broken from his injuries. was hoping for more but have realised the top brass won't publish anything until its done. which is a good thing.

front foot pressing and releasing the ball in to spaces for runners is what he is good at. he is not a "6" (Bruno would be a shoe in for us as a deeper lying schemer, and can win the ball back. i'd say he is a really useful player for us, and has bought into the new role.

Berardi is the player to go for there. actually just take both eh?

he'd have an easier time at Milan as well. the games slower there, whereas the premiership is possibly something he needs to get accustomed to. he's not that mobile from what i've seen. strong and with good positional play, i may of course be wrong.

you'd have thought he'd be able to afford a decent tee shirt. still, good news, a very good full back.

is he all there? silly question i guess.

true. basically, i'll get a game with this lot.

not just curved runs for pressing, surely. good vid though.

and Origi

nice. who's next? that world class left back and centre back we need must be just round the corner.

no real ones though!

get both him and targett. very different players, but you'd use zinchenko in a possesion based system, whereas Targett would be useful more generally. think their displeasure at playing slightly fewer teams could be offset by a healthy wage. the other thing is if we could get cucurella from Brighton. he's a top player.

absolutely wonderful player. get him signed.

fair comment. he is a decent shot stopper, but if we are to play out from the back or have that as an option... then maybe he's not what we'd want.

cuccurella and targett left backs? think we could spring cuccurella as i think he is basically the best of the rest and is supremely consistent (targett is very consistently good for us btw).... just thinking of injuries... Bissouma, would give bruno more freedom to roam. lodi? Paqueta a better centre forward than wilson ( or one that stays fit all season)... Josa Sa?/ henderson for goalkeeper or even nick pope?

Got tapped up by Barca. The bastard.

thats the thing, its a step up in terms of work rate etc. those numbers seem to point to him being a way better all round footballer than a pure dribbler. no real surprise. st max needs to change his game, but whether he will, i doubt it.

i don't mind Burnley. not as a place but as a team. sorry, what on earth was i thinking.

there have been some forrific updates to club crests in the recent past. i do hope they give the fans a choice, at the very least.

he's a coward though.
