hypochondriac

You apologised and then continued to call me a racist so in actuality your apology meant fuck all. The only thing I did was laugh at the idea that you had inside information regarding southampton transfer dealings and you flew off the handle calling me a prick, racist etc etc. It sounded unhinged to be perfectly honest and rather like you may be drinking again unless that's how you are all the time, I don't actually remember you as a poster before this year.

You also get it the other way though where loads of people say they deserved it or they're happy they died because they were rich. I know it's slightly different but loads of people were almost gloating when the deep water sub exploded and everyone on board died. That sounded horrendous to me on a human level even if they did have more money than sense.

Ah you must mean the 'spat' where he got pissed up and repeatedly called me a cunt before crawling back shamefaced a few days later with a grovelling apology which to be fair is more than you've ever offered despite your previous disgusting claims to numerous posters.

Indeed. Personally I'd like us to structure some deals like that. Keeps us within FFP rules and means we might be able to afford a higher class of player. Dare I say it maybe we'd be interested in structuring the Ramsdale deal in a similar fashion - although his no doubt higher wages would be an issue I'm sure.

It's about staying up this year. Yes he's not worth that but he's probably worth that to them if they stay up. Will be interesting to see how he does.

Fair play to him talking in English but I can't help but feel we'd have got some more insightful answers with a translator.

Do you have any evidence or just a hunch?

Sounds like the o'riley alternative to me. Non scoring though which is a bit of a worry still.

There we go then. Still think it's a little bit of an odd one but hopefully we can make an exciting unit from some of these players.

Not sure you've come to that conclusion. They might have put a bid in but the decision to accept and when will come from arsenal.

There's an awful lot of words written about jwp and not a single link to him this entire summer.

Is there? I would be astounded if that were true given our sales. We made more money than any team ever I believe.

Suggestion I saw is unlikely to be reduced as they tried to fight it. I also saw that it was two charges so possibly more than 6 as its a higher loss than others.

That's a different argument though. If your argument is that we will need to spend more so that our net spend will be significantly higher after sales and that we are quite high favourites to go down then I agree.

We have multiple millions coming in this year. A ten million net spend is not spending millions we don't have.

Spent money we don't have? If we sold all those you're suggesting then we have only spent ten million net this summer which is relatively little.

I don't think he will be back but if he did come back a loan with obligation to buy if we stay up makes sense for all parties surely?

What about if we signed targett in addition to the other signings we needed? Someone like Fernandes looks to me like a decent signing but whether he's a good one for us or not will depend on who we get for the other positions that we need more

That's true but there hasn't been a single link to him this summer which in a summer of being linked to every single player I would say is quite telling.

The only reason I'd want jwp back is because he could the break the free kick record with us rather than another team.

Losing kwp at this stage and replacing him with someone bang average will be a big blow and it would then be a fair argument to say that our defence is worse than last year. No idea why anyone thinks we woukd get jwp back. We are literally just signing a box to box player. Not going to happen.

Seems to me like we want some different midfielders who can perform different roles rather necessarily being backups to each other. You'd think we will still bring in a dynamic AM which is again different from what we have.

Sounds like he's a defensive midfielder. Can't see us signing him at all given we have lesley now.

It was always the most likely. Bit depressing to know our place though as Brighton and wolves have surged past us.
