Sounds like he's expecting game time.

What a signing!

Looks fake to me, why would we sign two players at the same time and presumably announce them both at the same time but have ones photoshoot be on a plain white background and one in an office?

I wish we were West Ham.

😂 Having a bad day mate?

Give them a chance, just because the media are all saying it's done doesn't mean it's completed to the extent we're happy to announce it.

We're trying to get rid of three CBs and get one in, pretty obvious we are sticking to four at the back.

Sounds like two good additions then. Anyway, thank you Oriol, been a fantastic player for us. Will keep an eye out for how he goes.

And the reduced transfer terms probably led to reduced buy back clauses. I haven't paid much attention to rumours so don't even know who those two kids are.

I really hope the lack of mentioning a fee in the article - it doesn't even say undisclosed - isn't because we've let him go for free.

Don't we have a stat that we've never hit 4 wins in a row in the Prem? Or is it 5?

I get that Walcott isn't at the level we want but he WAS on the bench against Chelsea, meaning if he goes that's another space in the squad that needs filling. Could be a spot for Ballard to be fair but we don't want to limit his game time by taking him out of the under 23s too early.

Wouldn't we know by now as their transfer window has ended?

I'm not talking about trying to keep them, I'm talking about not limiting the amount of profit we can make on them. We may end up selling them at less than 50% of their value.

True, but when you're signing players with buy out clauses then that means you're thinking about selling them before they've even signed...

He literally raises his arm to blow the whistle when Newcastle cleared the ball before seeing Liverpool still have it and then they go and get the corner. Disgusting.

I get it but my worry is if transfer fees continue to inflate at an absurd rate then the money we get back wont help us much with reinvesting.

How pacy is this Bade bloke then? Isn't he pretty tall?

Well that's that out then. Bednarek to west ham, Dawson to villa sounds like the logical outcome. With Bednarek and Stephens both going though there MUST be someone else coming in at CB.

If we're selling Stephens as well he might end up third choice here to be fair.

Am I the only person who would take Dawson on loan for the season as fourth choice in order to get some money in for Bednarek?

Going to come back to bite us these buy out clauses. Him and Lavia would be going for £80million each in a couple of years if they keep up these performances, let alone improve on them.

Djenepo will also be big for us going forward I feel with Perraud being back. Probably a big reason we're still after a fullback so it frees Djenepo up properly to be used as a 10.

Skybet are taking bets on him scoring a hattrick in the second half and it's only 4/1 😂

Haaland might genuinely hit 1000 career goals.
