Ex Lion Tamer

I thought Che and Salisu might leave this summer to maximise their value. With the transfer window now shut, the focus surely turns to giving them new contracts

That tweet says to me that we're not signing him

Yeah I'm going to change my mind slightly as he's turning 20 in January, so he ought to be able to contribute. But he does look pretty raw on that video at least

I'm not sure how much he'll offer this season but he certainly looks like he has plenty of potential

Medube seems like the kind of player that we would sign when the opportunity arises, regardless of any other movement in the squad

I enjoyed the way he skipped passed the player in the build up to the second goal. Allowed the move to happen

In a way I'm surprised that anyone is surprised. Ralph always turns it around and takes us on a really good run. Then we'll go on an awful run. We just have to hope that this season we'll have better players so that our bad run isn't quite so bad

It's true that although we feel like we're spending loads this summer, there are actually plenty of clubs spending similar and we're only mid table on net spend

If we push the boat out for him then i wouldn't be surprised if it's because we can't get the marquee striker we were after and are having to settle for a loan instead, so are hoping to make up for it in the wing position

It's a shame he wants to be close to his family because Celtic or Rangers would be great for him

I wonder if putting together a formal bid is actually a bit more work than sending an email that says "we'll pay £30m", so the club isn't going to do it unless it has put out the feelers and thinks the transfer is a realistic proposition

Maybe we tried but he chose Atalanta? They had a weaker season last year but before that made the quarter finals of the Champions League

If Arsenal want rid of him them then they will accept a lower fee, with the proceeds going into AMS' salary

Leicester aren't the team they were but I can see a new manager coming in and steering them clear of trouble

Here's how they compared last season:

Target men may be coming back into fashion with Haaland and Nunez now at City and Liverpool

Stuart Gray Steve Wigley Let's not go down that route again

Genuine question to all - are we taking it easier with the pressing in first halves now to try to conserve ourselves for the second? We used to blow ourselves out before half time, hence our terrible record for throwing away leads, but that seems to have changed

Although he has shown obvious ability at youth levels, he seems totally the wrong build for a full back. Perhaps it doesnt matter but something's not right for me. He reminded me of that stocky winger Fulham had, Kamara, who was ok to be fair but not a world beater. Also perhaps the thing he needs to learn at Port Vale is that it's not just us who think he's not ready

I wonder if this has been put out to pressure Ramos

The only reason to join United is big money, you're basically killing your career

I'm not sure how logistically we sack the manager right now. Would surely put off players from signing if there's no manager in place

I will give him another chance if he ditches three at the back
