Summer window

Do they have a bucket load of coin to spend? Genuine question, as I thought all this was just to realign their FFP after their spending spree under Boehly?

 

I did read Romano suggested it wasn't that close but The Athletic don't post idle gossip either.

Edit: actually it looks like The Athletic's piece supersedes what Romano said.

 

Bruno tonali brother?

 

I'd assumed so...

 

That's not quite true to be fair

 

Almost correct

 

Is it ****e. They’ve signed players on 8 year contracts so they didn’t have to worry about that for now. Raising easily £200m+ in player sales plus shifting loads off the wage bill will allow them to spend as freely as they want.

 

I really hope he’s away this summer…

 

Im open minded about Simms coming back but I just don't think we'll offer what Ipswich and Stoke will.

Sooner have the french kid.

 

Sorry mate but that just isn't how it works. What do you expect the club to do about it? How are they supposed to prove it? Procure all Stewart's phone records from his provider? Take him / Stoke to court? All that will do is massively piss off a player we're trying to persuade to stay. It would take years to get through the courts and prove anything, and then what's the endgame? A tap on the wrist for Stoke and measly fine which they can pay without a second's thought? It's absolutely rife in the game and there's zero point in trying to do anything about it because the costs / time to try to prove it are just not worth it.

 

Bit gutted at that mind. Love watching him play.

 

Bet your not as half gutted than Pep!!

 

Big boots to fill. Foden is the obvious one I suppose, but Gondogans goals are so crucial. Definitely weakens them.

 

Believe me, the PL would not try at all. They long since conceded the running of the game to the clubs with the most money.

 

Every non state owned club should resign from the league and start their own. Would be class.

 

Some page on twitter reckons we've got watford home first

 

Out of all the sources who claim to know who our first game is,one will probably be right.

 

Saw three different versions that looked like that leak last week for premier league. None of them were more than 30% right.

 

They wouldn't because we will do the same mate. 90% of transfers now I reckon and the media always report on them too. Things have moved on and no-one complains because they all do it.
