Also in Norway, where he's from

Was the same country until 1905, which is probably what Giggles remembers from his childhood.
I just realised Haaland is younger than Foden. Lol wot, thought he was 23/24.
I for one am excited to have another player from West Sweden in the Premiership.
He's one of the few people that would be improved by an acid attack.
The mum is pretty tidy, so guess it must just be a bit of a quirk combining their worst features

Mazraoui to Bayern.
Apparently West Ham have offered Rice a £200,000 a week EIGHT year contract. If he signs that and it doesn't have a release clause then he's got brain damage.
Really? That's £80m guaranteed, whether he's shit, injured, or otherwise.
And in a year or two he'll be in the same position as Harry Kane where he wants to leave but he's too expensive and is stuck in a long-term contract.
If everything works out and he ends up being as good as Harry Kane, yeah.
Chelsea, United and City already want him. He's not as good as Harry Kane but we're already at the point he'll be actively denying himself a move to a bigger club by signing that.
Whilst I see your point, it is also basically a set for life contract, and has a release clause ever actually been used for the transfer of a British player or for a transfer between British clubs?
Given his lolworthy valuation, and this unpronounceable from Monaco who seems to be doing the rumour rounds, I'm surprised more teams aren't in for Tielemans for what looks a pretty modest fee [£40m].
The foreign clubs will always be the more attractive place to shop as we have the financial power here over them. Rice is the prime example. Assuming he signs that deal, he wont be going anywhere for less than £100m in the next 3/4 years. You can get French equivalent for what, £40m now? Seems a no brainer.
I reckon his market value is likely at its absolute peak now (how much better is he likely to get?) so he should look for a big deal this summer, either with a bigger club, or with the 'appy 'ammers if it's the only one on the table.
Rice truly living off his brexitball credentials. He's achieved so little playing for crap sides all his life yet got gammons swearing he is top class. Technically he's nothing special and he sure as hell ain't gonna have any game intelligence with that footballing education/personality/face.
I don't think he's that good either. If anyone pays what West Ham are asking for him it'll end up going down as one of the most overpriced transfers in history.
His passing is absolutely dreadful.
I think he's alright in a very boring, central midfield way.
He would improve United a great deal, but the mooted transfer fee seems a bit lol.
Rice has looked brilliant in the times I've paid attention to him recently. But something something gammon etc because English players can't be good.
Shit version of a Bottom Ireland Paul Pogba
Of course he would.
If we're solvent he'll come to us for 5 billion to suck off his mate Mase daily.
Gerard Romero (usually very reliable for Barca) has just come out and said that Frenkie de Jong is going to Man United...
Well you can cross him off your usual very reliable list.
I'm a twit
"Finally, this Dutch manager will get the best out of Daley Blind ..."
"You should really stop calling Donny that."
Gabriel Jesus to Arsenal for £43m.
Would make sense for Ten Haag to try and rebuild his Ajax team of a few seasons ago. Have any of them gone on and done much? De Jong looked excellent but seems to have festered at Barcelona. De Ligt I've no idea about, Juve was such a weird move for him. Obviously 'Donny' hasn't had the best time of it.
I only just realized van de Beek must be pretty happy about finally getting to play (probably) for United under a manager he was good under. Who was the third of that Ajax midfield? Don’t know if United have replaced their head scouts yet so might as well buy everyone from that Ajax team.
Gravenberch and Alvarez are the other main two (younger) players. I'd like to see us go for Anthony, the Brazilian RW from Ajax. Looks a tidy player
Is De Jong any good and more importantly, why would Barcelona sell a good player?
Yes, and to raise money to keep all their other good players / midfield is sorted.
Yeah, haven't they got Gavi and Pedri pretty much sorting midfield creativity for them going forward?
Also probably still got to find room for Miralem Pjanic's wages.![]()
Lots of people confirming we're interested (and that Barca need a sale) this morning but that he's not particularly keen to leave.
I think we might be being used to try and get clubs who can offer Champions League football involved (probably City).
Would be bizarre of Barca to sell their only slightly defensive midfielders (who isn't over 32).
Tidy enough in possession to be a Jorginho type metronome against the shite but he's not competing physically to make his mark in the middle of the pitch.
Would be quite nice to have someone who can actually control possession in centre mid though. Huge leap from today.
Seems as though Liverpool are getting Calvin Ramsey from Aberdeen. Apparently highly rated youth, but I can't pretend I'd heard of him before this week.
He was great for me on Aberdeen save on FM. Must be good.
He’s quality but surrounded by complete shit. Looks a better prospect that Nathan Patterson anyway
Has to be miles better than Neco Williams anyway.
