    That ability to hover he's developed over the summer can only lend itself well to defending corners.

    Weirdest move of the window so far? Great move for the lad

    It's great! I love it when we sign someone no-one has linked before,it emphasises the quality of our control over the recruitment. The longer the speculation lasts about one particular player or another,the more convinced I'm becoming that we're actually doing a deal for someone else!

    Really like the Talbi signing. Quick, direct, has end product. Really like that he can play both sides, think it allows us to bring in another winger perhaps a left footed one.

    Loving this window so far, haven't signed one player where I've thought I wouldn't do that.

    I’m down in Manchester for the Stevie Wonder gig (can’t wait). I was saying to some of my old mates that we are now a very well run forward thinking club at all levels. I added to that ‘better than the ****show man united’. Some laughed.

    They’ve lost Egan-Riley and are losing Trafford.

    Now they have a past it right back.

    I’m not sure that back lines gonna be all that solid now.

    Been watching bits of Talbi in the three games he's played against Villa this season. Bit of a grand (and obviously flawed) declaration based on only 30mins or so of footage watched but he looks Premier League ready to me. Really impressive - very two footed.

    Enjoy mate! Seeing him next week at Hyde Park.
    Means I'm missing the preseason games is the only downside.

    The main worry i have (as i havnt got a clue about the new lads) is them not starting the season in the side

    we have a great start on paper . As i say i dont know about them and for all i know they could be our best players!

    i would love us to have some guaranteed starters

    Another thing on him, he's genuinely good out of possession. Keen to do the hard yards, holds his shape well and seems to enjoy defending which is rare for a winger.

    Not to mention they aren’t gonna be defending against Nahki Wells and Josh Coburn. They’ve got to keep the likes of Evanilson and Wissa quiet and that’s get “little old” Bournemouth and Brentford nevermind the big boys like Salah and Haaland

    One of the games against Villa, they were down to 10 men from fairly early on and he was grafting his backside off playing effectively as a wing back/one man right hand side. Decent positioning and physicality for a winger - particularly one so young.

    100%. It’s a different beast they will take some poundings (as will we most likely)
