hypochondriac

I could be wrong but it seems that the argument from sky is that sending reporters to where she lives does not constitute contacting her which is a stretch.

Seriously what is stopping uefa and all the European clubs seeking an agreement with the high profile South American teams and telling fifa to fuck off? Invite other nations to join if they like but no one is going to pay any money to watch African, American and Asian nations without the other lot.

I have no idea of the context but that's not particularly surprising if someone was involving his children.

Lots of people continuing to assume that Jander is staying.

Assuming that Tonda is still here, I can't see him playing Jwp unless he is actually up to it. He will be ruthless if required and Jwp will know he will have to perform and not rely on his name or history.

It wouldn't be a huge surprise let's be honest. Downes Jwp Bragg and jander/new signing is a decent championship midfield. Particularly if Jwp is free.

Presumably if the intention was to keep him and loan him out they wouldn't have been expecting a better season than the one he just had. If they still don't think he is good enough then why would they have bothered keeping him and loaning him out ?

I'm not sure what maguire would have done in this formation. We have left a lot of space for players to run into and that isn't Maguire's strength at all.

I'm sure we are but I haven't seen links to that effect.

I'm not saying that we should buy him back, simply that if the reports that we wanted him still were true then we still have the opportunity now to buy him. If we don't then I question the report that we ever wanted to.

Why did we want to keep him in the summer then ?

Doesn't explain why we wouldn't have resigned him in January if we had the chance to do so.

Yes that was my thinking too. Getting a solid championship player on a free is normally a bit of a coup so it is a shame that we couldn't bank that and use our funds elsewhere.

We will be looking to sell some of that quality so he would have been a replacement.

Hopefully we didn't want Neil in the end. Would be a shame to get turned down if we were looking to sign him. I trust we can get a good replacement anyway but a free transfer would have been beneficial.

It's not negativity I'm just being realistic. Obviously I'd love us to smash Congo and look brilliant doing so which would improve our chances of giving Mexico a game. If lose to them people will start suckling off Southgate but there's zero chance he would beat Mexico.

Yep. No guarantees but more likely than not to win today I would have thought. After that it will take something really special to beat Mexico and I don't think we have it in us. Out in the round of 32.

Yep. Clear we need to sell more than one player and quite clear who he was referring to. If we are to sell Scienza or Jander then we will look to extract the maximum amount whilst those who have been here longer Charles and thb- are more likely to be sold.

I bow to your superior knowledge!

I missed the first 15 minutes but it was one way traffic from the bits I saw.

France look ridiculously good. How anyone thinks England would have a prayer against them I have no idea.

Incorrect.

I reckon it is. The quotes from Dragan were clearly referring to THB and Adam Blackmore has essentially said he's off.

Whilst I agree with much of this, 6.5 million isn't to be sniffed at and actually is a pretty substantial amount. With a possible 25 for Charles and maybe 3 for bbd we are doing pretty well. Sell Ramsdale for maybe 10 million and Sugawara and we will be close to 40. THB will obviously go though.

Where the hell are a team like stoke getting 10 million from?
