Good News/Bad News
The good news is that a potential obstacle in our pursuit of Ndombele appears to have been overcome, as Juventus have identified another target

The bad news is that Juventus are in negotiations with Lazio to sign Sergej Milinkovic-Savic, which is going to piss off one or two posters...

Good for him. Had a solid season by all accounts. I doubt the fee was more than 6 digits buy this is a good sign that we are cashing on on the academy products who just aren't going to cut it at PL level. Players like Ononah, Edwards, CCV etc. should be going for 7 digit sums.

Ogilvie is out of contract at the end of the season, so if a fee was agreed it was likely chicken feed

Hopefully not literally

OP updated...now shove yer siren up yer arse <grr>
 
Accidentally clicked on the 1st page of this thread, which started well over 2 years ago now. Wow. The things we were talking about back then <laugh>

Incredible to think we have just witnessed an entire season with almost zero contribution from all 3 CMs mentioned here...
With Dier now being used as a CB again, I feel that we need more 'muscle' in the center; especially with Dembele starting to pick up lots of niggling injuries. We have probably already overused Wanyama this season.

Good call from Brian here...
Apparently, we have signed a ****-hot young Irish prospect from Belvedere, Troy Parrott, a 15 year old striker, who was wanted by Chelsea, also, amongst others

"Who's a clever boy then?"

This is why we don't read gossip columns <laugh>
From the BBC Gossip Column: Hugo could become Real's top target if they can't prize Courtois from Chelsea.

And yes, quite unbelievably 2 years on HE IS STILL AT THE BLOODY CLUB!!!
Well it's a jolly good thing we bought N'koudou when we did then isn't it? What a bloody good signing he was.
 
Worth signing on whatever money just on the understanding of what he could do to Salah's shoulder.

:emoticon-0136-giggl

What a little bitch Salah was though, cried over a bruised shoulder. While our Gareth, dislocated his yet said "**** you" to the pain as he steered our boys to the World Cup semi final. Hero.
 
Thinking only of the season in front of you and not a minute beyond it is the main reason you can set your watch to Steptonho flaming out of a job before the end of his third season there

We are ready for another level i think

i think its great that we sign potential but we need signings that are going to push our first team from game 1 next season. I just dont want signings that are going to disappear never to be seen again barring the odd Carabao cup experience. i dont care wether we spend a million or 70 getting them.

I don’t think we’re realistically looking for those types, we haven’t really bought a player like that since Nkoudou.

Since then it’s either been first XI or strong squad players and most have come off to be fair: Gazzaniga, Aurier, Sanchez, Foyth, Lucas and Llorente. Of those only Aurier has been a real disappointment but on paper he was a top signing at the time.

If we can continue down that route plus adding one or two elite players it should do us well.
