It was the cleaner who refused to return any of Lallana's calls last summer as well. Shambles.

He does, it's run like a seaside b&b.

Wouldn't say a debate as much, just lard and supersonic just getting destroyed.

But we risk filling the squad up with pointless clutter, who we will struggle to shift. I'm happy to go with the notion of letting the academy players provide the majority of the squad depth.

That list of yours is really taking shape. Keep it up.

Spurs ITK fans still living in their little cloud We are still talking to MS peeps, and he has not turned us down. Saints wanting crazy money for him which makes it difficult I am told. Key is Saints wanting crazy money for him. I mentioned before they are doing a DL. My personal take would be him seeing us as unlikely would then only go to CL club in UK. Few weeks ago he was very keen. There is nobody that can deny that. Know we still want him, but huge financial challenge is the obstacle.

Where is this from by the way?

Loan deal of the century.

What's he done?

Osvaldo for Jonathan Calleri. Done. Keep the change.

How's Jed Wallace?

Maybe we're being greedy and are getting both. Cause if you think about it, in terms of out and out strikers....we have 1! Long, Jay, Mane etc are more supporting forwards.

I'd make him our record signing to be honest. Wouldn't have any qualms about spending £15m on him Gone are the days of the 11pm club announcements, so the echo couldn't print....Cortese was a right vindictive idiot.

He's the chairman of Dilian Wanda....

Okaka was a huge flop at Fulham, spent about 6 months on loan a few seasons back. Had a big reputation as a youngster, but never seemed to go anywhere. Very tall and powerful though, so maybe seen as a Pelle alternative.

Interesting find that, written by our friend Wilson. He seems to get leaked legitimate stuff every now and then. Sounds like we're still positive on Toby. Will play out for a while.

It was an irrelevant argument if we're honest. Big teams buy big players, offer big money, play in big competitions. We're not a big team and we never will be. This is what comes from having 5/6 years of sustained success, totally skewed expectations. We have hit our ceeling league wise, in my opinion. Europa is our CL, and then if we win it, we have CL. That's remote, yes, but still a bigger opening that finishing top 4 is. If people start expecting more and more and more after this season, then they will be coming back down to earth with an almighty whack.

0-0 (no idea, actually!)

Can't believe they made a story out of that tbh.

It'll probably start when Morgan leaves, even though it's expected. July 2nd.

I don't think an apology is going to cut it here eddie.

Top prospect. We're going to become Feyernord II sooner rather than later.

A big outlay for a club like stoke, but I guess if they factor in that he has no transfer fee, they can probably spend the £10/15m fee on his wages instead. Will be interesting to see how he does.

Every transfer is a gamble really, if the club feel they can outlay £15m on him, then that's their call. It won't all be up front though, will probably be heavily performance based if it does happen. I just feel that buying Austin is like buying guaranteed goals, more so than other gambles we've signed in the last few years. If the club feel he's worth £15m and it's not going to put us in the ****, then fair enough.
