Very interesting, just finished listening. Thanks for that.

Going to palace isn’t he?!

So, are we going into the season with 60 mins under our belt? Seems a bit light...?

Anyone know if we’re playing today?

Inevitable, given it means they don't have to pay their debts.

He's a talent for sure, but never applies that talent, he's probabaly had 4 good games for us... West Brom away Palace away Man Utd home Probably another I've missed. He deserves abuse for playing in an FA Cup Semi Final and wandering about like it was a pre-season friendly. Disgrace of a performance.

Yeah - Wolves away, and Sheff Utd home, are both very odd, looks like two kits stuck together - dreadful. all of Palace's are shit, why do clubs not put stripes to the top? Newcastle's are all decent. WBA's are pretty awful, especially that third kit, hideous. Hummel have done a decent job with all of Evertons. Some really bland boring kits, Leeds, Chelsea, Leicester, West Ham all very dull. Like all of City's and Arsenals are both pretty smart, as are Man Utd's. I like the fact ours is a bit different this season, and certainly towards the top of the list

Claus?

Looks perfect. Sign him up

Think it's a good signing, he's not a winger, hes more of a "#10". Supposedly not a Zaha replacement. Probably will replace the dreadful Ayew in their starting line up

Odd...either there was someone and they're now back (Redmond) or there was never anyone and Redmond was awol for a few weeks.... Weird...

Is he the new Vegard Forren?

We've been less secretive over the last few years, I get your point under the Cortese era... Compare it to last year, and we plastering day by day accounts of pre season, games etc.

Felt massively agent driven I've got to say. Linked with everyone.

Yup - exactly this, however this also drives certain business decisions, depending on FFP and profit (loss) over a certain period. I remember seeing an article about how the Pjanic / Artur swap deal was done in a way that meant both Barcelona and Juventus could show a profit on sale of acquisition. Kind of irrelevant for us with Lemina due to the "small" figures involved.

Why do we think the club are so secretive about pre-season? Pretty much every other club has had friendlies and posted teams / highlights etc on social media, and we've seen about 10 photos...don't get it. Clearly not to do with Redmond, as everyone has worked that one out anyway...

Feels like a potential bullet dodged, certainly be interesting to see how he gets on over the next few seasons. Can see him being used to grow the brand in the US but not actually playing for Juve much...wouldn't be surprised to see him out on loan in a few years time.

Good - get that one done and out the way.

Joining Juventus, €3m loan fee with €18m option...

Thanks.

Bore off, you get my point.

Can you copy + paste please? paywall.....

I just don't think he's that great, plus Southgate clearly wants pace in those positions, and therefore prefers Rashford, Sancho, Sterling, Greenwood.

Ancelotti isn't there to build something though is he, he's there to get the club moving forward and competing with trophies now...Not sure they'll get anywhere though without a 20+ goal a season striker.

Would be good to get an update with whats going on... Pretty much not accessible this week.
