We've got decent form in the £10-12m bracket and expect to see that continue in the next week or so. But fair to say that bracket has probably now become the £12-16m bracket.

You think the change of direction is to intentionally make the squad worse? Maybe Les and Ralph sold the new contracts they got Tadic and Bertrand and Forster to sign on the back of this new direction. That'll be it.

Seems to be a child. Two killer rumours in his last two tweets. Be nice if true.

Are you still going? We're obviously signing someone.

How is saying we won't finish top half not "unbiased"? It's not even slightly controversial. We're playing Sunday/Thursday which is unchartered territory, so perfectly possible we might just finish twelfth. Oh, the horror.

Almost breathtaking how obvious it is that you were not at the game last night.

Man up, FFS. Personally I'd change it back to how it was not so long ago, with transfers open all the way up until about March. Imagine you're far to delicate to cope with such an idea though.

Definitely dinlow season in full swing.

We're staring down the barrel of a season of possession stat-wan k fawning over how we, like, dominated but just couldn't score. Basically the inverse Leicester City.

We're already at level 4 SaintRichmond. One more draw at home and we could hit peak swivel-eyes.

Yeah, I know. Was kinda entirely the point of my post.

Yeah, okay then. We have a great start to the season, let's say we're in sixth again and still in Europa and then we sell Mane on January 31st. The general forum reaction would be "oh well, fair enough, he gave our season an early boost", or, possibly, a meltdown the same as when we sold him. Which do you think? If we do end up selling Fonte is he currently giving us an early season boost or is the whole thing just bloody annoyance dragging on and poisoning our season?

We need to give Puelis time.

Hockey girls absolutely superb tonight.

Alex Ferguson three years etc etc etc.

One kick away from putting the hockey on.

Propaganda football.

Classic Shane.

Who needs Pogba when you've got the Dutch Xavi.

I'm with you brother. Brilliant. Single handedly destroying capitalism one match at a time.

We will make a good game tonight.

He could have inspired us to victory like Bolasie did with Palace the other day.

I'm not sensing a huge amount of "well at least we're holding on to Fonte for as long as possible" comments on the Jose thread. Because that's a good thing right?

Don't really see the point on holding on to Mane and Pelle, apart to stop a bit of moaning on this forum. If we'd held on to them and sold them on deadline day there'd be effing hell to pay on here.

Not really. I think this thread is making it complicated by The9 beautifully digging into every permutation imaginable. On the day we finished sixth it was pretty much nailed for us to be a pot three seed in the EL, but some still want to go on the convoluted three month journey to establish that yes we are going to be a pot three seed.
