Do we maybe have an agreement with Liverpool? Sell them our best and we buy there crocked and unwanted?

Sell them Mane for 30m buy Ings for 20m

Laughable if true.

Just when you think we've turned a corner

Oh bloody hell.

20 million? 3 goals in 3 years

I was told in May that Reed was being "encouraged to secure alternative employment" as the club didn't want to sack him in lieu of previous successes at the club.

 

What that actually means in reality I've no idea.

Thanks for the update VFTT. Always a reliable ITK

Eko was right. He said it was 50/50

Klopp and Liverpool fans will always appeal to players, even over a better guarantee of 1st team football sadly.

Are you guys blind? Do you not watch the videos?? Les is still here working hard but keeping a lower profile cos he’s cheesed off with the obsessed on here.

What videos are you watching?

Well- feels like a very long time since we bought before we sell!!!

 

Welcome into the team Jannik!

We sold VVD in January. Only just getting round to spending it given the January f-up.

By my calculations with the VVD money + Tadic £'s we are about even. Net nil spend

Les in on garden leave - he'll be gone soon.

If true

Genuinely can't see the club moving forward while he is still involved. The signings this summer + Tadic leaving without his name and reputation being damaged all suggests Leslie has been benched.

Old les has his mug over every signing since Cortese left.

Something has definitely changed and that's a real positive for us.

No leslie in sight again

This could be a great season

:badger::badger:

I think we will see an announcement on JV today.

ITK

Really think that could be said of the majority of the first team. Also, it's supposition.

My original reply was to the comment about how loyal he is and how we should reward him with the captaincy.

He isn't loyal (IMHO) as he was ready to jump ship (according to reports) if we were relegated.

I suspect he would have also left years ago if he was good enough for a better club.

Just because you're not good enough for a better club doesn't make you "loyal"

Decent guy yes (by all accounts) reliable over the years - kinda, loyal? probably not.

He has certainly shown his loyalty to the cause over the years, no matter where he is from. He has always played with heart, and tried his best. i regard him more favourably in this than, say, Boufal or his ilk. Thus i think you should maybe cut him some slack

I love Yoshida. But would he have stayed if he was good enough for Liverpool or United? No.

Like I said he appeared ready to jump ship if we were relegated.

I think we will see an announcement on JV today.

I don't want to lose Yoshi. He seems the old fashioned loyal one club type we need. Should be captain next season.

If he was good enough he'd have left to a bigger club just like the rest.

However I don't see him making a Fonte / sideways move.

Saying that he was heavy linked with a move to UAE subject to us being relegated so suggests he was trying to jump when we were sinking.

Not sure any player is "loyal" anymore and not sure why wed expect a boy from Nagasaki Japan to buck the recent trend?

I don't particularly rate Lingard I don't know where you got that idea from. Personally, I'd have played Dier instead of him & played a 3-4-1-2 with Alli in the 10 role.

Apart from a good performance against a pub team, I really don't get all this 'so proud' nonsense?!

210 countries entered and we got to the semi final.

WC didn't start 3 weeks ago and we have done well to get to the semi final of the whole tournament

Sparky will get the most of of the strikers much like Koeman did.

Long banged in 17 in Koemans last season and Gabbi will improve under Sparky guaranteed

We will regret this....

 

Poor finishing

Called it

****

We will regret this....

Poor finishing

Kane is useless

Might improve our goals from corners ratio.

Sam at 6'4

Vestergaard At 6'7

If anyone can improve Gallagher its Sparky.

I beg you not to slag off Vestergaard, i got seriously infracted for doing the same yesterday.

 

 

Why did you slag him off Eko? Have you seen him play?

Whats your thoughts? Reports from Germany look promising?
