Now that would be weird. It’s coming from Blackmore so he’s either been drinking or got some inside info.

Just Jan and Danso at CB, no Bertrand or Adams in the squad.

Did I read somewhere that Ralph said Danso was going to start at left back at Brighton even before Bertrand's 'injury' or am I just imagining that in the summer heat haze?

Blackmore is saying there are two other club options in addition to Monaco for Lemina.

‘In talks with’ is stretching it somewhat it would seem.

Worryingly I’m taking an LFC season ticket holding mate as a guest. He’s promised to keep his celebrations low key but I’m now fearful he’s going to give his true allegiance away! I might superglue him to his seat.

It will be interesting to hear what Ralph has to say about that in his post-match interview

That’s what the Burnley forwards will be doing.

No PEH but Stephens in. In Ralph we trust

Adam Blackmore confirming it’s effectively done and will be confirmed in the morning.

‘Suothampton’

There was a feature on SkySports today whereby they talked about the whole system being electronic now, and has been for some time. Definitely no fax machines involved!

If it's Kevin Danso then we'll have to get behind the 'in Ralph we trust' line.

It’s been mentioned many times that we are operating a one out one in strategy. On the assumption the Austin deal goes through then we should expect someone through our door.

Is he injured yet?

It's going to be a tumbleweed day. No one else is joining the train. Shame as the PR Dept went to a lot of effort on that.

Can he play at CB?

SFC and Palace in for Tottenhams Kyle Walker-Peters acc Daily Mail

In The Daily Star today too....

Remember when Poortvliet and Wotte tried that?

You think so?

How did you manage to quote and reply to him if you have him on ignore?

I don’t think he has the credentials to be an irritant like Herrera.

Spot on. As for a possible move to Man U, that is clearly dependent on Pogba going.

Seems quite a reasonable assessment based on the little of what I've seen of him so far.
