Barcelona have given Greaseman #14 and not reassigned Coutinho a number
Realistically there's only one I pay any attention to and he's got absolutely everything right that he's said. The rest is just a bit of fun.
And no, it's some twitter guy that the Leicester fans say is very reliable. His feed is mostly unrelated drivel and he seems like a twat, but that's what they say.
He’s not reliable it’s a parody account created by some weirdo who has created numerous “characters”. Had a run of predicting the starting eleven last season which made some people think he was a fabled “itk”.
I've been conned.
I don't have a big enough tongue to taste all of the tears coming out of Atletico Madrid over this Greizmann transfer.
The massive tools.
It's Barcelona. Anyone should be happy to see Atletico fleece those cunts.
I'm not sure there's a player who's done more to destroy his image than Griezmann over the past few years. Gone from hard-working grafter with incredible skill to flash cunt who thinks he's Lebron James when he's not even Klay Thompson.
Yeah hopefully Atletico take Barcelona to the cleaners for this.
And then one of Griezmann"s knees falls off.
They have to if they are serious. Hopefully, they follow through with legal action and not just cry about it online.
Fekir for €30m... to Real Betis.
Phew.
I'm a twit
"player that didn't sign for us is shit now"
30m is a pittance you mong.
Who needs to spend £30M when you've got like a new signing Lallana and co...
On a serious note, I reckon we're going to make a statement signing late on.
Lallana may not have faced Barcelona but he's still a comeback king. Norwich.
It's a shame we can't loan Suarez for the opening day only.
I think there wont be any incoming this summer.
Our biggest needs are maybe a more clinical striker(though Firmino is the heart of the attack so that's very tricky). A goalscoring/more forward thinking midfielder and some back up full backs.
You could argue we have to give Brewster the chance of being the striker. The 2 creative midfielders we've gained back in Ox and Lallana and one of the young lads impressed at LB in the first game back. We have Clyne back for RB too.
There's also the cuntish looking lad coming in from Fulham. You don't imagine he'd join if he didn't think we'd be playing him some time.
Aside from adding depth Liverpool would be stupid to change anything.
They should have sacked off signing those kids and taken a voluntary transfer ban to be paid forward at some point in the future when it will no doubt be needed.
I kind've hope they keep Wilson as a Shaqiri alternative, but I don't know whether he'd be happy in that role when he could probably go and start elsewhere.
Villa splashing the cash again - £15m for Douglas Luiz (who?), £7m for Bjorn Engels (again, who?), and £12m for Ezri Konsa (once again, who?).
I'm sure they've all been thoroughly checked out, Konsa worked with Smith at Brentford, but I feel so out the loop. Luiz has done two years with City without so much as getting near the first team squad. Boffed out on loan Girona. Sounds like Guardiola really rates him though.
Well, it just so happens a guy I know (who knows a guy) spotted De Ligt landing in John Lennon Airport last night.
Doubt we'll do anything unless there is a severe injury in pre-season, and even then these things take a lot longer than just deciding you need cover somewhere.
Would prefer to keep Clyne as cover at rightback as Gomez is a bit of a liability there. I suppose Fabinho can also cover that spot, theoretically.
Reckon we're chancing our arm on Robertson being superhuman again with only youth teamers as cover, but what are the alternatives?
Yeah, a left back coming in would be good, we’re hopefully find elsewhere. Bit thin up top of we get any injuries. Big Divock will step up though.
Yeah that kid. Looks like a bit of a twat but hopefully he plays good.
At present it seems he's happier to turn to youth, rather than go and spend on a different more experienced option. He'll need a little while for fan mentality to adjust to that, a little like when he first came in and wanted a stop to people moaning at matches.
The first team could go on for another 5 years or so without any change due to everyone being nice and young. The likes of Wilson and Brewster could come in and do better than a Lallana or Sturridge would have done respectively.
Twitter says that Maguire to United is done for £80m. Comes after Maguire kicked off about being priced out of a move.
Is it he good? I haven't paid much attention to his games but he seemed very ordinary.
That's the biggest case of English tax I've seen. If he was Spanish he'd have been about €25m.
He wins headers and he isn't Phil Jones. Pay them double for a laugh.
Good in the air. Decent passer and his charges out of defence are great fun.
He is slow and can get exposed especially when not playing alongside a senior partner but I’ll be sad to see him go. Yeah the fee is high but when we go and spend £40m of it on Lewis Dunk or James Tarkowski it’s sort of irrelevant.
Yeah Maguire is done. Idk the fee. I've heard it's more like £60m with 20 in add-ons, which given everyone is reporting £80m is probably true.
Bruno Fernandes looks likely to be next.
Maguire sounds like a sensible signing. He needs to make a step-up now though. Its Man Utd now. They don't settle for ordinary.
Also, what is with the negativity surrounding Pogba? It does not seem as like he has done anything wrong on and off the game.
I've made it pretty clear before I'm not exactly thrilled by signing Maguire, but given it's happening I guess it's time to hope he steps up and is our VVD signing.
If can ignore the fee, we've definitely upgraded our back 4 significantly compared to last season. Shaw - Maguire - Lindelof - AWB is the first actually good back 4 we've been able to field in ages.
@SincereTheRebel
Yes, the Pogba hate is absolutely ridiculous.
Maguire is a beast of a man. He's always looked decent when I've seen him against Brighton. Don't take Dunk.
Laughable fee. Laughable club.
Your mum's laughable, you wet cunt.
Didn’t expect a reply like that 😅
Leicester laughing all the way to the bank for that money, not that he's bad, but great deal for them.
You could have bought 2 Kante's off them and still had money left for an Eastern European Maguire.
It's encouraging that he seems to have made the move happen, rather than just being a Leighton Baines-style fanny sitting there in his comfort zone. CHARACTER.
Absolutely bonkers at that price but at the end of the day he's an experienced Premier League defender and you get what you see. I don't see him as VVD but then who thought VVD would turn out so good anyway.
VVD was top quality at Southampton just as Alderweireld was, so yeah, I don't think it was much of a surprise. Maguire isn't going to touch either of their levels though, and with Alderweireld available for £25m or for free in 12 months, I know what I would have done.
Madness.
