SuperSAINT

True. Although Smallbone prefers playing as an 8.

If they’re replacing Rice with 2 players, then the writing is on the wall. Good move for him if he comes here. Options open next summer too.

Why?

Berge about to leave sheff Utd. Assume they’ll up the bud for Smallbone. That one would really be a pain.

I'm sure we'll hear of some targets very soon...

Gutted to see him leave but was always going to go. A lesser-spotted Saints deal where we keep the entirety of the fee.

Do they? Or did you leave off the “if” ?

Man Utd reject the McTominay bid.

McAtee is brilliant. Would’ve thought prem sides would be in for him. Did well at sheff Utd last season.

Extra cash for West Ham.

This is the biggest thing for us. So many potential players who we get late bids for. I was pretty sure JWP would end up at West Ham (although that was before the internal struggles there. (Seems peak West Ham to appoint somebody to cause strife).

Last night hasn’t really changed anything. We know Che is better, but we know he’s only got a year left and most likely to go. A shame. But that’s how it is.

Great win last night. Also tremendous showcase for any players to see how we play (for those that didn’t know).

Not one to promote violence, but the social media team have a golden chance to top the "Stu Taylor cup of tea" announcement video with a re-do of that altercation.

Good. Alan Pace’s daughter can visit Amsterdam and put up flyers for a week.

Bree

Completely. I would LOVE him to stay but have fully expected Newcastle to land him. Eddie AND Ashworth both love him & they DO have to money despite what they say.

Has anyone posted that tweet about the loan fee?

I thought the narrative for Utd was to get a Keeper & a striker and use what ££'s are left for a midfielder. With Amrabat (has worked with EtH before & is cheaper) as preferred option. I still don't see him going anywhere else other than the Mersey W*nkers.
