I have no idea about him, but he sounds to me like more of a competitor for the wide forward roles than the central role Ferguson plays. Ferguson will easily get 30+ games next season [probably more] unless he breaks down physically.Originally Posted by Giggles

Why are the Chelsea fans asking for a right back. That Makuede bloke was their only good player the other night. Looked like he could be an absolute star.
edit: Lol I just looked at the lineups and it turns out he was playing as part of the front 3, Chelsea were just so awful I assumed he must have been playing from right back.
Isn't he a winger/attacking midfielder?
See edit, they were pinned back so deep I assumed he must be the right back.
Didn't Chelsea have a shit hot right-back on loan/buy-back at Southampton?
Livramento. Looks like he's only just recovering from an ACL tear which put him out for a year. Ooft.
The mention of a Neymar to Utd rumour should the Qatari ownership play out is top-notch. New contract for Starboy Mase, coax Adam Johnson out of retirement and appoint Michael Adebolajo as a remote diversity and inclusion officer and I reckon they'd be there.
Surely the likes of Messi and Neymar have more money than they'd ever need now? No chance of them going Maradona and making a romantic move to turn a former great club around.
Soz, I meant Man Utd not Newscastle.
Chris Wood aside, we're run too well to sign anybody over 23 for silly money.
England midfielder Jude Bellingham reportedly rejected a move from Borussia Dortmund to Manchester City as he did not want to move to a 'plastic club'. (FourFourTwo)
Get over yourself mate. God I hope Madrid go back to being absolute shite again. It's well overdue.
Sadly they've just set their midfield up for 10+ years with signing him, have a good enough CB pairing and Vinicius is a star in the making. They look a bit dodgy at fullback beyond Carvajal and need the Benzema replacement plan to get underway, but I'm sure they wont exactly struggle for signings.
Legend, if true.

Maybe Benz can hang around long enough to blood Endrick
Imagine Haaland up top for them.
Saw some clickbait recently saying they’ve got Mbappe lined up and it’s more when than if.

Lots of rumours of Kim Min-Jae to United (nothing from great sources as yet) which would be amazing.
He has a release clause of 50m euros active in early July.
It's obviously completely unfair, but my internal prejudice has doubts that any South Korean player is worth that sort of money or can be expected to perform in a serious position in a proper league.
Also have the slightly nagging feeling that Napoli have just been on a bit of an Arsenal this season, and when players like Ndombele and Zambo-Anguissa have been tearing it up for them perhaps one needs to take everything with a large pinch of salt in terms of expecting that form to be translatable to different leagues.
Also, whilst United obviously have issues at centre-half, are there not more pressing areas of concern [ie midfield and attack]?
Park Ji Sung and Heung Min Son have entered the chat
You're not having Park Ji Sung ffs, as handy a player as he may have been.
Son, yeah, ok, maybe, but then that's a different market [where Richarlison costs £60m].
Son's worth that much, although he's really hit the skids this season. Or it could just be that Spurs have been unilaterally shambolic.
Sons problem came when Conte decided he didn't want to use one of the best wide forwards in the league, because he didn't want to play left wing back.
And that's why Victor Moses has a Premier League winners medal, and Son doesn't.
Park Ji-Sung has FOUR...
Mac Allister to Liverpool appears to be all but done.
£80m?
Unless that's one of those figures that Cardiff's lawyers appear to work off.
Cheap for a World Cup winner.
I can't see that figure anywhere but if that's true it's insane.
You'd imagine they won't be forced to sell Caicedo if they've swindled £80m for the Mac Daddy.
To be fair, I think the source is pretty dodgy on that [it was just the first thing I saw on google news] but it's going to be an alarmingly high number whatever happens. I don't think financial considerations will be decisive on selling either MacAllister or Caicedo, Brighton will get good money for both but both will go [I think they've probably been promised as much] as long as the offers are there, which they will be.
If you could get both for the cost/wages of a Bellingham then you'd be laughing.
Is the other one going to whichever out of Arsenal and Chelsea don't get Declan Rice?
This is why I don't see it being as high as a guaranteed £80m. The whole point is to get 2/3 in as appose to 1 big signing. If they get Mount, Mac Allister and Ugarte for around £150m, I reckon they'll be happy with that.
Fucking Mount
Ugarte will be off to Chelsea with Mendes being the biggest factor. The latter is buddy buddy with Boehly.
If you don't think Mac Allister is worth £80m you haven't been watching the ginger maestro recently. No biggie as he really does strike as the most mediocre piece of shit to any casual viewer but under Klopp? Jesus
Probably.
It has been suggested that there is THE SHORTLIST(12 names?) and they're trying to get as many from it as they can. I think Mount will tell Chelsea he wants out and will eventually go for somewhere around £30m.
What becomes interesting is if Ugarte doesn't join then how far down the shortlist do you go before you start considering shite like Rabiot and Tielemans for free.
Rabiot would be a terrorist attack against the ownership situation.
I've no idea why no one wants to touch Tielemans with a ten foot barge pole, so I can only assume he comes out very bad with the analysts.
I hope said shortlist also has some defenders on it.
Klopp isn’t touching Tielemans - he can’t run.
In Championship news, it sadly appears that we are on the verge of selling Jobe Bellingham to Sunderland for 3m.
He's played a fair amount for us this season and actually played pretty well for a 17 year old. Calm and composed on the ball with decent passing ability, I think he could turn out to be good. He's nowhere near his brother at the same age, but that was always to be expected. It does strike me as odd that its Sunderland, though. Admittedly there's a few of our old youth coaching staff up there but even so, this feels a bit like a sidewards move for him.
Can't complain too much. If Jude goes for big bucks (and the rumoured 10% transfer clause is true), the Bellingham family may have single-handedly kept us in business.
Are they going to retire his shirt as well?
Well our new owner is American, so it’s a distinct possibility.
I think I would rather be the binman brother of a top, top footballer than the crap footballer brother.
Bit harsh on Phil Neville.
The talk I'm hearing is the Mac Allister deal will be ~£60m in total, he'll be on 100k a week and signed for 5 years.
Sounds like they're just waiting until the season is over before announcing.
I'm expecting anything else Liverpool do to happen quite quickly after. Klopp wants all of the signings done before pre season begins to get everyone on the PEDs properly.
Neymar to United rumours starting early this year.
But we have Casemiro this time. So obviously it’s happening
Neymar added into that squad
We already have Antony, Neymar might be overkill
Not thaat I know much about Scotch football, but why are Rangers releasing a bunch of [what I would have thought are] their better players? Is it money? Do Kent and Morelos not want to sign on again, or have they just gone to shit? You were looking at 8 figure transfer fees for those two not long ago.
Probably a bit of both. Ryan Kent done okay in Europe a few times but is generally very useless.
Probably not worth the bother with Morelos. He’s fat and a bit retarded
