Dr Gloom 19837 Posted July 26, 2017 Share Posted July 26, 2017 Being linked with some Spanish 21 year old from Dortmund now who only played 7 games last seson - Mikel Merino. Another one in the young/inexperienced bracket. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It seems like Rafa (over?)values character above all else which is the only reason I can think of that Colback isn't also down with the kids. I hope he sees sense and sends colback to the knacker's yard Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

wykikitoon 16726 Posted July 26, 2017 Share Posted July 26, 2017 Colback must be a right teachers pet. 'Ooo boss don't worry I'll sweep the changing room, care for another cuppa and a jammy dodger before I start?' Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rayvin 4964 Posted July 26, 2017 Share Posted July 26, 2017 That sounds a lot like what some of us have been saying for the past couple of weeks. And if this is true, then Rafa isn't necessarily being messed about. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Fish 9008 Posted July 27, 2017 Share Posted July 27, 2017 Getting shot of Hanley shouldn't be an issue, but off loading Saivet, Lazaar and so on might be a much trickier task. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
trooper 940 Posted July 27, 2017 Share Posted July 27, 2017 We still need rid of 8/9 players does Rafa have to declare his 25 man squad before the season kicks off ? If so that's an awful lot of shipping out to be done in a couple of weeks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

StoneColdStephenIreland 74 Posted July 27, 2017 Share Posted July 27, 2017 Not everyone needs to be declared for the squad though. Players under a certain age can be left out and still play if I remember from my football manager days. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Andrew 4226 Posted July 27, 2017 Share Posted July 27, 2017 Chronicle reporter saying that we've held positive talks with Benfica over Samaris and that with Merino coming in we're unlikely to sign him in the same twitter thread.

Anorthernsoul 1221 Posted July 27, 2017 Author Share Posted July 27, 2017 Soon as you said Chronicle reporter I knew it would be bullshit. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
David Kelly 1117 Posted July 27, 2017 Share Posted July 27, 2017 Dunno if I've already mentioned this but I saw someone ask Ryder on twitter about striker targets and he said he knew who we were after but now wasn't the right time to say. That tells me they either know absolutely nothing or it's not worth reading anything they publish since they've already mentioned strikers in the Chronicle.
