    Mount going to Man Utd for £55m+ would be glorious. Poor RL.

    Hopefully that prices Liverpool out the picture and we're full steam ahead for Mac Allister and Ugarte.

    It’ll involve some kind of financial irregularity surely. The days of a top club signing Aubameyang on ability alone are long gone.

    'Mase' is quality, although £55m is taking the piss. Does signing him mean you get a better shot at Rice seeing as they're 'besties'.

    Mount would be really good for Liverpool in that run like fuck role Wijnaldum was great at. Not sure where he’d fit in at Man Utd. A lot of money for a utility player who is currently injury prone as fuck

    This is why I'd be happy to have him here. He doesn't need to be amazing, just have a good engine and pass the ball forwards to of the of the forwards or fullbacks.

    £55m seems very steep for a player with 1 year left on his deal, but then I guess they know United need the home grown quota filling up.

    Really? Is that a big deal still?

    Would Bellingham fall foul of that rule [whatever it is]? If so, what a bobbins rule.

    Jones, Maguire, Greenwood and Butland are all leaving and that's without factoring in outside chances of Shaw, Sancho or Heaton being loaned out or leaving too.

    They do need some quota filling signings and also some midfielders. Mount would tick both boxes for them. I'm not saying that's the main reason for them signing him, but it's got to be playing a part.

    They can make it up with squad meat or a back-up 'keeper if it means not wasting all that on Mason Mount.

    Mount would be a good buy for you, if only to bring some humanity and honesty into that favela community.

    Looks like PSG might have nicked Ugarte off Liverpool which would cheer me up a bit at least.

    When you consider Mount has played every game for years, mostly to a very high level, not had a break at any point (until the last few weeks) and also apparently been the victim of stalking, I'd say there's quite a lot of upside there.

    Better Mount than Gallagher, who the lucky loser will probably end up signing.

    We're don't have much FFP headroom though. I doubt the Sheikh's have got their one-man-in-a-shack billion pounds sponsorship deals setup yet.

    We genuinely don't, because of our complete inability to sell players and our lack of Man City accounting.

    Selling McTominay for 20-25m will clear any issues due to being homegrown. If Chelsea get £55m+ for Mount that will give them enough leeway to spend another couple hundred million. Never mind if folk pay for Gallagher and Chalobah

    If Chelsea can get round it by giving players long contracts and there's no adjustment in the FFP assessment to take account of this then the whole thing must have enough holes in it to get around it before you even get to what Man City were doing.

    They've closed that workaround. Fees can now only be amortized over a maximum of five years even if the contract is longer.

    Find some more. Honestly, that that loophole was even there in the first place and for that long shows how piss poorly thought out the whole thing is. Any accountant worth half of their salt (even one of Jim's management accountants) would have spotted it in seconds. It's serious 101 stuff.

    And while I'm at it, what the fuck are PSG doing? There isn't a cat in hell's chance their 'business model' is sustainable playing in that shithouse league and getting bummed out of the Champions League early doors every season. If the regulations actually worked they'd have been banned from Europe years ago.

    That would be a much better signing since he could play a bit further forward at United.

    My father in law watches Soccer Saturday, despite me getting him IPTV on a Firestick for Christmas so could literally watch the only match he cares about (Everton), and I’ve noticed they have women’s scores on the ticker along the bottom. We both agree they should have their own show, if people care that much, and keep their sweet pussies out of the men’s game. Not in as many words, mind.

    It needs the Men's game to keep it remotely relevant as it's a product that has so little interest compared otherwise.

    Will be interesting to see if this Xavi Simons amounts to anything outside of the Dutch dosser league. His numbers are impressive but his physique is not.

    See Liverpool newspaper linked to Milinkovic-Savic. He looked an absolute don a few seasons ago, although I've seen little to nothing of Lazio/him since. Why did he never leave them and is he still any good?
