Interesting - so wasn’t Ethan Ross then in the last two games.

Anyone gone to watch this? Would be interested to know if Abdul Abdulmalik is playing again.

I asked this previously, but I don’t think it is. Website says full match highlights can be viewed after I think and to follow Twitter for live updates. Maybe there will be a dodgy stream somewhere

I see Jamie Carragher has criticised Kane for his actions... funny, I don't remember him feeling the same when VVD went on strike.

"You'll never win anything with stats"

I'm loving how much you 'trigger' certain posters. It's like moth to a flame. Keep up the good work.

Bring back Alpine.

Yep think you're right, obviously got some good links up there. So if he says we're still interested, I would say it's likely to be true.

He has pretty good links seemingly in the lower league North West clubs - Blackburn, Bolton, Wigan. Was very clued up on both the Wigan and Bolton administrations (some of the Wigan stuff was just mental).

Sounds like Watford have ended their interest in Armstrong.

Be interested to know who you think we could realistically sign to replace Ings, that wouldn't leave us 'fucked'.

You can never be sure that a great championship striker will make it in the Prem. However, in relation to Obafemi, I don’t ever see him bagging 29 goals in a championship season like AA has just done.

The state of our yellow card count if we had a midfield of him and Romeu.

Do we think there will be a club stream for the games this week? Quite enjoyed the Swansea TV stream at the weekend, thought it was well worth a fiver.

Weird isn't it.

How do you know it's made up bullshit?

Maybe, we'll see.

I think Grealish is an excellent player and would fit in well at City, but totally agree I would have gone all out for Kane (or Haaland / Lukaku) ahead of him. Unless Pep is just going to continue not playing a proper striker and give everyone else a sniff of a chance, because if they get a proven goalscorer like Kane, I think it's curtains for the rest of the league.

Maybe the mystery poster on the Transfers thread is right and we're getting that Doig lad from Hibs too? Perraud / Doig - Left Back KWP / Livramento - Right Back Would be a turn up for the books (and I'll believe it when I see it)

That positivity lasted for 7 minutes huh?

Because I think it’s pretty obvious it’s for if/when Ings leaves.

Quite right too, as we have been defensively shite for the last three seasons. Shame a GK won’t form part of that.

Quite, but deducting £6m from the value of Armstrong in a part-ex could work. Especially with the 40% sell on to Newcastle. Imagine it will be two ‘separate’ deals, but essentially will be one.

Amazing what happens to valuations when clubs know you’ve got £100m ready to burn. They did well to get Buendia and Bailey sorted before Grealish goes.
