But...but...but...there are some utter dimbulbs out there, and at least one and a half on here, who'll tell you the players are Marxists. As if Raheem Sterling is demanding the socialisation of the means of capitalist production and the overthrow of the bourgeoisie.

Welcome to Turkishworld (along with hypo, trailing along behind him like a tin can tied to a wedding car).

Is Sergio Romero still a free agent?

For this window? Highly unlikely.

AM-N would have been a brilliant signing. It won't happen unfortunately.

Reported.

I swear I've heard this line in Ted Lasso.

I'm not sure if this is a really clever technical explanation of how the press worked against Man U - or a bit mad. Either way... https://twitter.com/maramperninety/status/1430183631914405893

That's nothing. I had to rely on hand-written updates via the Pony Express.

You are Sam the Eagle and I claim my £5.

You *actually* think that?

Odd that no one has reacted to this. It's as if it's just a tad inconvenient.

So pure speculation then.

Has that ever happened?

Well you wouldn't consider turkish's (I actually think inflated) '1/10' acceptable. In the UK that would mean we have seven million racist abusers. As you say, zero tolerance is the only way, and we were making progress until populism became all the rage. Now, not so much...

Announced. Good signing!

You have something sheep-related in mind?

MLG isn't being pedantic here. He's just right. And what dictionary gave that definition? It's weird.

Crook + Nixon = Watergate, so no one. Good signing, shirt-back confusion aside.

Harry Wilson off to a good start at Fulham, scoring on his debut (though I'm waiting for the inevitable late Boro equaliser). He seems a decent signing.

In English, we say 'two out of three words.'

The sight of posters trying, and abysmally failing, to out-pedant MLG is hilarious.

He might, but - excuse me while I lose my mind for a moment - if Real Madrid also come in for him, where does that leave Chelsea? Doesn't the buy-out become a base release clause for anyone else?

From this season, every contract signed is subject to psychiatric evaluation. If we get a new striker, that is expected to be psychopathic.

You're having way too much fun with your superpower to trigger.
