    Harry has offered Terry a contract

    Fucking hell, this is immense. Get Krancjar, Crouch, Assou-Ekotto and Kaboul in and just fucking go for it.

    You would almost be tempted to say fair play if he does that instead of phoning it in in America/China/Qatar. It would even be quite dignified if those rumours about him desperately needing the money weren't so persistent.

    It's very old school. Reminds me of seeing the likes of Denis Irwin at Wolves and Paul Ince at MK Dons.

    What's Terry pissed his money on? Gambling? Slags?

    You can have Kranjcar. I like him but he was still struggling to get fit when he got injured for six years, so even though he's apparently 'fit' now I wouldn't expect him to be up to speed until well into next year.

    That wonderkid 'keeper at Milan isn't signing a new contract, and it expires next year. What an ungrateful little wanker.

    Harry Maguire signs. Think he'll be great for us. Huth and Morgan are both starting to seriously creak and he looks an ideal replacement.

    Everton have signed Pickford for £30m. It'll be interesting to see how he does. A good keeper did seem to be their missing link but I can't imagine them finishing higher than 7th next season.

    He was playing for Milan in the first team at 16 wasn't he? Think he's the real deal.

    He's pulled off some bonkers saves but being a child means his judgement has been a bit questionable. At seventeen he was basically David De Gea at however old he was in his first season at Man Utd.

    He is pretty rubbish. Think of all the keepers that are better than him. I mean, there's Neuer, and um, you know, Seaman's making a comeback.

    De Gea is absurdly good, he's one of the top few in the world.

    It really would take an American to think he's shit

    I used to rate Lloris as the best in the division but he seems to be howler prone, so it was probably down to the back four.

    *searches for post where I called him shit*

    I called him Near Post Dave because he has a tendency to get caught out near post. It's happened several times.

    The point was more if we could sell De Gea for an astronomical amount and bring in Donnarumma, the 18 year old heir apparent to the Italian keeping throne with 60 odd first team appearances for Milan, I'd be all for it.

    No, it's not as if United are struggling for coin.
    No, I'm not saying Donnarumma is better than Dave is now.

    But I don't see any problem with doing a good piece of business.

    If you Twitter search any 'keeper and 'near post' you will find a bunch of wallies calling them shit. They all narrow the angle there because it is harder - for anybody - to react to anything hit hard and accurately enough to go into the smaller gap. Dave Gayer is no worse than anyone at his near post.

    Donnarumma wanted £80k/week apparently and they've told him to get to fuck. Their loss, you'd think.

    £17m for Maquire sounds absurd. Starting to wish we gave Vurnon and Sammy one year contracts and then immediately listed them for £12m each.

    I saw Donnarumma milling around at the halftime of the Italy game I went, and he's probably the largest-seeming human I've ever seen. He's like those crocodile keepers on Super Mario Strikers.

    £12m + £5m in add ons. About par for the course for young English players these days isn't it?

    Maybe I've just not heard the hype about him. Being away from the Premier League will do that.

    I'm disappointed we didn't make more of an effort to go for him - £17m seems a lot but if he does well for three seasons then moves on for £5m, he'll probably have been worth it.

    McInnes turning down Sunderland is lol. Simon Grayson the new favourite.

    That's your boy from the RSL days I'm guessing. Jury is still out on him. I don't dislike him as a manager but after our effort last night in the US Open Cup I need to see a lot from the team on Saturday.

    Manchester City will try to fund half of their summer transfer spree with a planned £130m clearout, led by goalkeeper Joe Hart, 30, and striker Kelechi Iheanacho, 20, for whom the Blues aim to get £25m each.
    Good luck with that.

    Everton have also signed Klaassen, the Ajax midfielder. He didn't stand out in the Europa final IMO, but meant to be good. Looks like Everton mean business getting these deals done early.

    I listened to a radio program earlier where some Icelandic journalists were discussing why Gylfi Siguršsson isn't being chased by bigger clubs than Leicester or Everton. They compared him with Ivan Perisic who's valued at £50 million and is purportedly being chased by Man Utd whereas Gylfi is 'only' valued at £30 million by Swansea. They came to the conclusion that although Gylfi's a better player in pretty much every aspect, he's been branded as a 'big fish, little pond' type of player because of his failed stint at Spurs.

    It's obviously a pretty stupid comparison since they play different positions and for clubs in a vastly different situations but it did get me thinking. Gylfi not only counts as a homegrown player in England but is also entering the prime of his career and almost single-handedly kept Swansea in the Premier League. He's also carried a dogshit team to the European Championship quarter-finals and is at the cusp of carrying them to the World Cup. Is he not worth more than £30 million and should bigger clubs not be after him? Or am I (and the entire Icelandic nation) just deluded?

    Klaassen is someone I always hear rated very highly, but who disappears from view any time I watch a game he's involved in.

    You definitely have a point, @Amigo. £30m is nothing to the top six clubs and you'd think he'd be a good squad player for any of them. Doesn't strike me as someone who wouldn't live to the pressure (was he even that bad at Spurs? And was he given a real chance?)

    Spurs loved Sigurdsson, it's just that Eriksen is better and both want to be starting games.

    Gylfi is a total don. Those free kicks on FM (2011?).
