SuperSAINT

I can't remember who said it on here, but somebody said he plays like he's in front of a mirror. Thought that was brilliant.

Yeah & his ego & attitude wasn't a surprise. I can remember that a quick google told us he had a attitude before he signed.

Ox out for the season

I only want good news, mate

Wouldn't surprise me if Lookman was an alternate option for Elyounoussi.

Everton ramping up....

Fulham back in?

Probably the younger kids. Most of the U23's are with the first team at the mo. Either that or we've told him to stay away. He & his agent are quite loose-lipped so I'm surprised we've not heard anything.

I might be wrong but this deal looks like the archetypal 'agent peddling' transfer deal.

I agree. Mentioned that in the other transfer thread.

Joao Mario to Wolves seems much more likely than his link to us.

They want Townsend & others but certainly have to sell players like Mitrovic & Ritchie in order to do so. Newcastle are so lucky Rafa's family live in the North because he's put up with some stuff he'd never normally hang around for to stay there.

Antonio isn't the worst shout I've heard, for all the reasons mentioned.

No real whispers. Think we will probably start seeing players depart before we see any new arrivals.

Indeed. They should save their money & play Lookman, IMO.

Malcom to Everton?

The window closes in 4 weeks. Any Spurs bid would arrive in 3.5 weeks.

Bournemouth ready £57m outlay on World Cup stars Jefferson Lerma and Diego Laxalt: https://www.thesun.co.uk/sport/football/6800825/bournemouth-57m-jefferson-lerma-diego-laxalt/

It was just such a low fee. I don't even recall there being any Telegraph spin on it either? (Unless they just lied & said we were getting more).

Heard anything lately, VfTT?

Liverpool bid £62m for Roma keeper, Alisson.

Newcastle want Rondon.

Mitrovic would be good. Don't see us having £20m lying around though.
