Killers Knee

Being optimistic, I expect us to make 6 signings for the starting line-up and be rooted to the bottom of the table from the start and then progress in the second half of the season to finish on a season high of 14th. If we sign 3 new players and try to hedge our bets by playing the youngsters and relying on the January window if things are not panning out then there is only one way for us, and Yazz didn't sing about it.

"Any confirmed Chambers deal is likely to see right-back Carl Jenkinson, 22, leave Arsenal on loan to gain regular first-team football." We should not be in the business of developing other teams players. This is a bad change in direction if true.

Burnley have the team that got promoted and have brought in an extra 7. They will be a match for anyone in the bottom half of the table. Sunderland have added 4 and released their dross (there's a lot of it). They proved tough enough for us last season. Koeman is more than half a team short of a starting eleven and only has 20 days before his season starts. Jeeez FFS!

Apparently RK is after Leroy Fer (Daily Star, Express) Koeman is also considering whether to take Serge Gnabry or Carl Jenkinson on loan from Arsenal, having sent Chambers the other way. (Daily Star)

One thing is certain, he has the hardest job in the premier league this season. He now has 20 days to purchase 6 starting players and form a team with only 2 matches remaining before Liverpool. If we are to avoid utter humiliation at Anfield he'll have to get a move on.

The only statement that needs making is one of intent by making the 6 first team signings before we face Liverpool.

It would be a wiser investment of our £100m if we purchased Feyenoord Rotterdam outright, players, bricks and mortar.

Nobody will highlight a problem of the premier leagues own making. The PL and the champions league are the most celebrated competitions, because they can be bought. Unlike proper competition like the Euros/WC, where we seem happy to fail.

Just watched the B'muff match. Not impressed with anything tactically, hopefully RK is waiting until his first team arrives before he teaches them.

Steve, i have never figured out if income from player sales equates to commercial income, can you please set me straight?

Factually incorrect

The academy is the reason we are in business. We wouldn't raise any money without it.

She is not a billionaire as far as i know. She is a wealthy heiress who found herself in a business persons shoes. The swiss businesses were wound up, workers state reason was bad management but all workers say that TBF. Not sure if they went through asset stripping process. She is a neighbour so i could bang on her door and ask.

Thanks

Pedant warning: I'm not sure one describes the daughter of a business man as a business woman, especially when you take into account what happened to the swiss businesses. I think heiress is more appropriate.

How many did he score? Not seen result yet. Anyone got links to goals/highlights?

If i were Cork id not be happy about being on the bench. He deserves better to be fair.

Ok own up who was just on Talksport

National express coach from behind asda might be quicker

We will have to spend big to show ambition now.

Hopefully hes better than the last CB we bought from Celtic.

Talksport reporting Liverpool & SFC have agreed a fee of £20m

mong-board meltdown, i hope SFC have your permission for this social experiment

You can have Jos for £2m.......

This, we are not even sure if they are part of RK's plans for next season.
