    Matt Target to Villa, decent signing for them. We have an 18 year old ready to step up and cover Bertrand.

    Fee is supposedly somewhere north of 10m rising to 15m.

    How do you feel about Che Adams, Andy?

    Also, this chap seems to be doing quite well. https://twitter.com/JamesMcCann74

    In all honesty I know very little about him, I trust that Hassenhuttl knows what hes doing so hopefully it's his pick.

    It's the position we needed to strengthen the most and hes a good age so should be decent even if it takes him a season to fully get going.

    I've heard his name mentioned a few times over the years so surprised he's only 22. I hope Danny Ings kicks on again next season for you given the amount of football he's missed.

    Che Adams is quality. Reminds me of a hench Vardy. Wanted us to go in for him as he is a local lad.

    Looking quite likely Lukaku will go to Inter and United will sign Ben Yedder as a replacement (Sevilla have agreed to sign Luuk De Jong to replace him).

    From the little I've seen of Ben Yedder I like him a lot.

    Rabiot to Juventus on a free.

    That's a midfield of him, Emre Can and Ramsey they've not paid a fee for. Good business.

    When did that Italian tax thing come in? Did Juve factor it in for the wages they are paying Ramsey? If not he must be laughing.

    All well and good not paying a transfer fee, but you're shelling out massive wages and signing on fees in lieu of that for, well, some of them are decent I guess. Hardly a terrifying midfield trio.

    Wolves have confirmed Dendoncker on a permanent deal. He started last season super slow, but since Wolves switch to three CM's, instead of two. He has been great.

    Is Bentancur any good? The few times I’ve seen him play he has been very underwhelming, not that I exactly know what he’s supposed to be good at anyway. The rest make a handy six for the three places in midfield with two somewhat similar kind of players for each position.

    It's good how they've assembled that midfield on the cheap, but it's not that amazing. You can't pick a three out of it that would strike fear into whoever they need to beat to win the Champions' League.

    I saw that, but with a 'heavily incentivised' caveat. It's lol either way.

    I suppose it depends how heavily it relies on incentives. And to be honest I don't even know where the line would be for me as I've given up on pretending to know or care about how football and money work but still, that would be a lol amount if it's structured in such a way that he's regularly getting £200k+ certainly.

    Rashford grabs ten league goals, gets a humongous contract.

    Lukaku outscores him despite not scoring in last 8/9 games and getting benched throughout season gets sold?

    Ha.

    You manage to make 'despite not scoring in the last 8/9 games' like a compliment.

    I'd also wager that Lukaku is already on a ludicrous contract, albeit perhaps not as ludicrous as whatever the guaranteed money in Rashford's new one is.

    I won’t even bother engaging that nonsense. We will probably end up talking about Marcos Rojo.

    Reported wages are - without fail - complete fantasy.

    ITKs doubling down on De Ligt to United. Also Bruno Fernandes and Longstaff.

    ‘He’s not driven by money; his new salary is less than half some of the crazier figures mentioned in headlines.’

    Edit: I am not buying the De Ligt stuff. Would obviously be happy if we do sign him (as long as it’s not those made wages) but I just don’t see it right now.

    We’ve put in a bid for Zaha, half of what they asked for but his brother told sky sports it’s his dream to play for Arsenal so that’s a done deal. #ITK.

    De Ligt would have to be brain dead to sign for United. What do they have to offer? They're not even at the same table as the other clubs in for him these days.

    If I were him I'd want to play for United. Great time to join them if you're an actually good 19 year old defender with leadership qualities.

    Dutch people tend to have a raging erection for Barcelona though.

    I'd be astonished if De Ligt happened but it's not like he hasn't got another 15 years in him to rectify it if that particular mad notion took him.

    Pay-walled out, but his 'salary' will be something like £150-200k basic (to fit with the half of what is being reported line), with the bulk of the rest in appearance related bonus. It's irrelevant unless it turns him into an indolent spack (he's probably too young for that) but it's still funny in the grander scheme of things.

    It's about right if you consider how stupid the club would look if they lost him on a free transfer. Plus it takes him well into what ought to be his prime.

    I dunno, they had that ubiquitous option to extend for a year anyway didn't they? Maybe it would be worth waiting to see if he had an actual decent season at some point before putting him on par with the best forwards in the league.

    They had no option but to extend Rashford, they just have to hope he remains hungry on that money. Some do, some don't.

    Good to see that Arsenal are still rolling in with laughable bids.

    God I used to hate it when we did that ALL THE TIME. Fuck you pay me and all.

    Isn't defence a bigger priority for them anyway?

    I reckon his issue will arise as a result of that grade A cunt Lingard. He's another United would be well served getting rid of.

    "Grade A cunts" are people who set cats on fire or support Liverpool.

    Lingard is just enjoying himself being a bit of an idiot.

    Dixon - Adams - Bould - Winterburn.

    Once upon a time they did. It would still be equally as good in today's game I reckon.

    Thats probably more along the lines of it and someone with 170 first team games and 32 England caps at 21 is probably getting close to that level these days.

    For anyone who wants to read, bolded the pay bit
