    Reckon Davies will carry on on the left, or Sessegnon for a pair of attacking wingbacks?

    It's Mendes orchestrating it. There's no way a player of Doherty's quality, with 3 years left on his contract, goes for under £15million in this day and age.

    He's seen very little game time, but he's been shit when he's played. He was shit in his full Premier League season with Fulham too. No idea why they signed him. (Well... I do. Young English footballer, potential resale value )

    He seems to have a decent controlled shot on him which got him the 15 league goals as a teenager and he should be able to eek out a 10 year prem career off the back of that a la Schlupp.

    Other than Fernandes and Pogba we have absolutely no competent offensive-minded midfielders. If either of those are injured or rested it's back to Mata/Pereira/Lingard shite. A player like him was desperately needed.

    40m sub when three out of the four defenders are 3 out of 10 garb, two of which wouldn't even get into the Sheffield United team.

    There is never any transfer DRAMA with Dutch teams is there. I think they're just happy to be part of it.

    I think it was more, other than these two really good players, we have no one else. Oh noes!

    Hopefully Pogba gets shunted back into the defensive midfield role.

    We need more than 2 good offensive midfielders. Do you not remember what it was like before Fernandes came in? Did you not see how hard we were falling off with them both being knackered at the end of the season because Ole wouldn't play anyone else because they're all shit?

    So instead of having 2 players for one position, you'll have 3?

    You need a 6 that can transition the ball from defense to attack. You need Xabi Alonso not Gerrard.

    Pogba is an 8 and Fernandes is a 10. Yes a Thiago would be nice, but we absolutely needed depth.

    They do, because Pogba and Fernandes can't play 60 games each a season. If you'd had to watch Pereira and Lingard playing ~20 games a season you wouldn't be saying this.

    Ok, but you've 2 very good players in those positions. You have positions with 0 good players in them. I'd be more worried about a first choice defender that can't run, than a back up that's a bit shit.

    My mate manc sean refers to the once routine Lingard/Pereira substitution as the 'double-ended dildo', and he sits in the pub moaning out loud about all the pain the double-ended dildo causes him.

    Apparently Bayern are losing their patience with Liverpool re:Thiago and the Utd interest that's started being reported is genuine rather than just an attempt to push Liverpool to pay up.

    He's going to go to Bayern for his release clause next summer.

    That's how Germany works.

    Presumably, depending on where they come from. No idea if you can bypass that with testing, but I suspect not.

    Isn't Guardiola in 2 weeks isolation at the moment?

    Werner might be able to nab himself a load of tap-ins and protect his rep but I'll cut my Frankfurter off before a German playmaker warrants such a price tag in the prem.

    They do seem to be building the ideal side to get bullied out of every contest. They might have won their first eight games in a normal season, but the weather will turn by about round three this year so I'm not having it.

    Havertz will be brilliant. He's super talented.

    Low tier rumours of Upamecano doing the rounds again today. Would be a great signing but think he'll cost too much this window.

    Only to prevent him leaving on a free next summer. His club lowered his release clause from next summer in return. If a big enough bid came in this summer he'd still move. There's been talk of a loan with obligation to buy for the release clause next summer as well

    Liverpool had to bung them something like £10m to get a years advance on a release clause for Keita (money well spent :/) so lol at the idea of 'taking him on loan' as part of the fucking deal.

    The loan would have a fee obviously. I don't know if it's feasible but I'm fairly sure similar deals have been done before

    He'll go somewhere better next summer. PSG will probably want a centre-half, or Bayern, their defence is hardly stellar.

    You'd probably have to chuck them £60m and then loan him back for a season for them to think about it, which would be mental and would never ever happen.

    Koulibaly's got a few good years in him yet, just buy him.

    They've got great form negotiating with players in the Bundesliga who've signed contracts recently so I expect RL to be tracking his plane within the hour.

    Additionally, as and when Upemacano becomes available I'd be amazed if City weren't all over him.

    Although I guess the defence is going on the back burner again this summer so they can sign Messi. That deal, using their MLS team to pay some sort of insane signing on fee in 3 years or whatever it is sounds completely on the level.

    As they should.
