Convict Colony

I am spanner thought we were playing tonight - it take it back crooky your a genius compared to me

just realised the game is tomorrow.

Leaves it to just before a game when logic would say the club dont want to announce it and take away its impact. Expect it around lunchtime tomorrow - sources have told me......am i doing it right ?

If we dont sign a striker I am going to ask @trousers to put full stops after every word in every post until the end of the season in protest.

If the gozteppe dude had a shave he'd have a chin like desperate dan

All i can say is white privilege and toxic masculinty But honestly i will watch this tomorrow as some good names and also @stevegrant there

Orsic. - Edozie - Djnepo - Beto - Moffi - Adams. - A Armstrong - Mara - S Armstrong - Ballard Bazanu Rest on the bench

Ok let's do these overhyped losers.

Medical done yet ? I'm already getting excited about the YouTube video to come. I want to compare Carlos squat with a stick with Orsic's who I thought made my front door look flexible. How many handshakes will it include (I'd go for 12) Why is the fake contract paper always blue, do we have a discount to have Pompey coloured paper ? Haven't been this excited for a video since Pam and Tommy came out.

I'd assumed we were just going to play 3 wingers and be a sexy no striker team.

I give goals against Italian defenders a higher weighting than french ones.

Yeah well remembered he does I remember reading that as well.

As YouTube vids go his was the best I'd seen for a while interms of him doing everything we needed from a striker and it had good music too.

While we are waiting on further news of strikers i found this good blog on Beto and his journey to Udinese, just google translate it. Seems like a nice guy except for being a chelsea fan cos of Eto. https://www.cronachedispogliatoio.it/beto-intervista-cronache/

your wish is my command

Posted this on other thread on sat - this guy does a good breakdown on him

Official on Racing twitter

Got a central midfielder now that will go forward first and try and score goals.

A bit more details from the argie press https://www.ole.com.ar/futbol-primera/racing-alcaraz-premier-venta-oferta_0_w1B0LsI0VR.html

He's going to have a shock to the system coming from the argie summer to european winter.

He's an 8 according to what I read - he sits ontop of the diamond (something Jones likes playing) and drifts into the box late. See him being the link up man with the forwards and JWP and Lavia behind.

Good thread on how alcaraz plays for Racing - last tweet of thread summarised below 'In summary, he’s a big talent. He’s potentially a 10-15 goal a season midfielder, he’s clearly a European level player. Teams like Wolverhampton, PSV, Atlético, Inter, Arsenal, Tottenham & Sevilla have shown interest in him. His release clause is 25m€, he’s a potential bargain

Even the Racing directors seem confident of doing a deal - https://www.ole.com.ar/racing/alcaraz-premier-southampton-oferta_0_1MFLMqykcb.html From the side led by Víctor Blanco they are negotiating to try to get a little more money (the player's exit clause is 25 million euros) but, according to what they told Olé , there is optimism that the pass can crystallize. The talks and the tug of war continue and we will have to see if it closes in the next few hours.
