Of course he doesn't.

Too early for this.

If we can't get the players in to play Pellegrino's system, we'll surely need to bring in a manager whos system fits.

I would love to see a Carillo and Gabbiadini partnership but I wouldn't trust Pelligrino to have the sense.

Redmond could help the team for once in his life and f*** off to Russia.

They had an exceptional manager for that league. We had exceptional momentum (thanks to the positive atmosphere and tight knit squad). We'll have neither next time. Not to mention the financial **** we'll be in!

The Championship is the hardest league in the world to get out of. I'd rather not.

Get plan B sorted immediately! If this falls through we need to bring someone else in.

So... dimmer switch?

Liverpool buy the young exciting players (bar Lambert) whilst West Ham get the oldies.

Probably similar feelings from both sets of fans. Winnable...but not the best. Slight delay in the broadcast perhaps?

My guess is Wigan. I dreamt it.

Any first impressions on Carrillo?

Didn't follow the game, but these comments look worrying.

It's because it's looking less likely. It's part of the rejection process.

Some interesting and slightly more optimistic comments...

If we were this ambitious in the summer we would probably have got him. I'm thinking that perhaps we're now being a little too optimistic given our circumstances.

So the general consensus is he's a great guy but a bad footballer.

It's not a panic buy in the sense that they've plucked him from thin air however I feel like they've had to bend over backwards for Monaco given our current circumstances. I don't think you'd see us overpaying like that unless we felt we were backed into a corner.

Rather suggests he doesn't want to come here.

I suspected as much. Panic buy written all over this as I can't imagine the scouts have seen a £17.5m player in Carrillo.

Which is the reason we're STILL not being touted for relegation by many outsiders!

I'm not convinced by him at all to be honest. I was hoping for someone a bit more proven given our predicament. The fee seems ridiculous to me as well but I guess it was inevitable after making the Van Dijk money so public.

Everything about the club at the moment is making me angry. Maybe I need to go into hibernation until May.

He won't be popular because we're ****, the manager is **** and he's dithering in the transfer market. We are massively under-performing this season. Nobody's entitled to a league place, but everyone is entitled to feel disgruntled at the boards incompetence.
