You'd need to close the net in tighter than 'nice'. What type of shoe you after? Manchester got pretty much everything you're after, places like Schuh, Footlocker like everywhere else, and loads of shops for kicks and that, which are much the same as anywhere else but bigger maybe. Can't see why you wouldn't get what you what in one of the department stores; Kendals, Selfridges, Harvey Nicks etc.
Latest ... apparently Liverpool have now contacted Maddison's representatives to advise of their "interest" in signing him ... ooooohhh a bidding war ... that would be nice...
I thought he was from Pallion or something, but yes Durham is nice , but like everywhere you're never far from a place similar to Beirut.
You definitely need a completely new midfield so I would imagine he fits the bill in there somewhere.
Hate to disillusion you mate ... and I sincerely hope you get a top 4 spot this season ... but the lure of the established Big 4/6 will always outweigh a smaller club having a good season ... Year we won the title and were therefore in the CL the following season, Chelsea finished 10th ... no European football ... yet N'Golo Kante jumped at the chance of joining them ... that's the kind of thing you are up against, buddy...
