This hour's reports are saying Grealish is "furious" that Villa have rejected our approach...yet he still hasn't handed in a transfer request Apparently his meeting with Villa's chairman went like this... please log in to view this image ...similar to my response that Inter have supposedly rejected our inquiry for Brozovic, in other words In other other other news, we're supposedly still tracking Stanislav Lobitka
Bernard, 25, left Shakhtar Donetsk earlier this summer and was seeking a £200,000-a-week contract. https://www.thesun.co.uk/sport/football/6941106/west-ham-chelsea-brazilian-bernard/
"So far, United are yet to table a bid for the 29-year-old, with Tottenham demanding a huge £55million to let him go. But the Red Devils are reportedly ready to offer one of Marcos Rojo or Chris Smalling to the north London side."
Somewhere on the internet, an angry David Baddiel lookalike is writing a blog saying how Levy should be hung, drawn and quartered for not signing seasoned internationals like Jones or Rojo...
McGinn completes his move from Hibs to Villa. He's a playmaking CM so let's sit tight and see where this leads.
I'm not a huge fan of Loftus-Cheek but surely it's worth going for him? Chelsea clearly aren't going to play him and worst case Chelsea refuse and the lad gets pissed off that he could be playing in the CL but has to settle for, at best, sitting on the bench in the Europa League.
They already had an impressive team last year and have made some really astute additions this summer. But then you see them signing Adama Traore for a club record £18m and you remember that everyone has to express their inner Commolli at some point. He is shockingly bad. A poor man's Shaqiri.
Would love us to launch an intense tapping up campaign. He's a serious talent wasting away there. I also wouldn't mind us enquiring after Drinkmineralwater. Could be a useful and experienced addition at CM.
Don't see how that can be allowed to happen unless we have incoming home growns. Back in for Sessegnon?
