Shame but, when Jay Rod returns, he may not even have made the 18, with Mane's imminent arrival too. Hope regular games get him going again and we ultimately benefit next season.
At what point do we start to panic that there's been no news or announcements. I'd like to set an alarm so I don't miss out. I'm guessing the Guan smiley warning system will be in operation prior to any official announcements too?
I like the fact we are pushing to take one of Spurs players when they have spent the summer trying to punch at least two of ours... Just a shame it's Townsend although he might find a new lease of life under Ronnie.
That's a fair bit of cash for Jack but he's needed here and I hope he convince Ronnie to give him a new deal over the next few months to keep him here too.
I guess he's worth whatever the club were happy to pay for him. Whether that financial payment translates into actual value on the field of play will become apparent over the course of the season(s).
Spurs were linked earlier today, wouldn't it be good if it were the other way round and he'd decided to come to us rather than them in a Pochettino karma kind of way.
Clearly Clasie got wind Taider was leaving and signed up with Feyenoord quickly before we went in for him...
So does this mean a call up for Reed or another one required by Monday night?
