    Also lol at Liverpool doing interviews before he has officially signed if true.

    The further scenes when instead of the Alisson or Oblak links, we bring in Pope.

    They are moving in the right direction though. They need to add players yet I don't hear anyone linked.
    Contracts just help the selling club get a bit more money. If United, City, Bayern, Real etc wanted him he'd be gone doesn't matter how many years he has on the contract.

    I think Kane wants Shearers record, which will keep him in the country. You’d think Levy wouldn’t sell his best to rivals, but Kyle Walker last season and potentially Alderweireld this season says different.

    Bit of a difference between Walker and Kane though.

    Alderweireld is a broken situation, a bit like Rose seems (seemed?) to be.

    Why don't they just bring in Cech and his special helmet? Or meet Buffon's wage demands? He likes a moan.

    Also, bit of a bummer that Fekir is off (it would seem) but as I said, Aulas is a cunning bastard, so probably knows full well he has a shoddy knee (if he does). Probably best not to spaff record signing amounts if you have medical concerns. Sounded a good player though (kind of ideal). Oh well.

    If they sign Pope (which wouldn't be the end of the world) I don't see why they wouldn't just give Ward a go - is he rubbish on the ball or something? Don't much like Butland unless he has a relegation release clause which makes him cheap.

    Buffon to mentor good old Loris would be great (obvious club/cultural animosity aside), but seems a wildly unrealistic idea (I would guess he wants a better shot at a Champions League medal if he goes somewhere - ie PSG).

    I would imagine Fekir will still move to Liverpool after the World Cup, assuming no injuries.

    Klopp has refused 2nd or 3rd choice signings since he's been at Liverpool so I'll assume there'll be a cooling off period before talks start again.

    Deulefeo has signed for Watford for 11 million quid which seems cheap considering his reputation but expensive considering his career output to date.

    Justin Kluivert has signed for Roma. Patrik Schick must be a bit miffed having, just moved there for a similar price they let Salah go for, to play the same position

    Schick is ass, but then so is Kluivert from all I've heard so it looks like Roma have 0 strikers for the price of 2. It'll all be on Edin's shoulders yet again

    Griezmann holding a press conference to announce where he'll be next season, apparently.

    It won't be us, but I'll be hoping regardless.

    Yeah he stays, then. No club is going to pass up on the opportunity to to a big ANNOUNCEMENT if they are making a signing.

    or he follows Eden and just calls a press conference to tell the world there will be another press conference where he will reveal all.

    Hmm yeah maybe. It's probably something they do for either themselves or as instructed by their (country) managers to take focus off it during the WC (whether it works, I dunno).

    Man City and Sterling are miles off an agreement in relation to his wages. They have met twice since the season finished, and both times have failed to reach an agreement over a new long-term deal.

    Wolves signed Benik on loan in January. They made the deal permanent two weeks ago for £10m. They sold him to stoke for £12m today. If I was Benik, I would be furious. Getting to the premier league and being dumped. It's not like he was shit for wolves. He scored some important goals during his loan spell.

    As a replacement, Wolves have loaned Raul Jimenez from Benfica on loan. He is with Mexico in Russia.

    Does that not mean he gets an extra signing on fee and his Wolves contract (whatever it was) pretty much paid up in full? Gutted for him.

    I imagine so. That extra £2m wolves got may have ended up in his pocket. You negotiate whatever you want these days . The championship might be his level but I would have preferred Wolves keeping him over bringing in Mexico Raul

    We've signed some Uruguayan midfielder from Sampdoria who I've never heard of for 20-30 million. I can't spell his name either. This 18 month period is going to be a fucking nightmare of nicknames, I'm sorry.

    edit: WhoScored report sounds interesting.

    If we're lucky. This is the first wait and see season in what feels like forever so I'm not going to judge. I have no idea how good or shit we will be for the rest of time. I've stopped caring without stopping caring. It's fun.

    Looking at tacklers and interceptions per game which based on what ive read, he is supposed to be a very good defensive midfielder. He competes with the rest of the players in the league. If you use Kante as the benchmark as the best defensivle midfielder on the planet.


    Player Tackles Interceptions Combined
    per game
    N'Golo Kanté 3.3 2.5 5.8
    Wilfred Ndidi 4.2 1.5 5.7
    Casemiro 3.6 2.1 5.7
    Idrissa Gueye 3.5 1.9 5.4
    Lucas Leiva 3 1.9 4.9
    Yohan Cabaye 2.3 2.5 4.8
    Lucas Torreira 2.8 2 4.8
    Sergio Busquets 2.8 1.6 4.4
    Arturo Vidal 3.1 1.3 4.4
    Joe Allen 2.7 1.6 4.3
    Granit Xhaka 2.1 1 3.1

    If he was really supposed to be that good, Juventus would have bought him.

    Juventus and B.Munchen like to weaken teams around them. Juventus would have bought him, just so Roma and Napoli don't.

    Leno is terrific. He'd be a great signing.
