    yeh I mean Rome is a 4 hour drive south of Sassuolo so it would strike me as odd to be Lauriente.

    weird for us to call out Newcastle fans for thinking it’s for them when it’s probably not for us either…

    they’ve already lost Huijsen. If they’re in for him they’ll probably get him, like Petrovic

    He’s leaving the training camp in Ronzone. How close it that to Rome?

    It’s a bit like saying a player flying into Southampton must be signing for Sunderland :D

    There is however a 9am flight down to Rome from the tiny airport up there.

    Works pretty well time wise to then fly across to Newcastle - and we also know not to bother looking for flights to Faro.

    I've mentioned a couple of times how much things have changed since the end of last season.
    There were a few players we were worried we'd lose unless we were promoted.
    Neil, Mundle, Cirkin, patterson, Hume.
    We were promoted but because of how unbelievable our recruitment has been its more likely we could lose these players because they need to look elsewhere to get game time.
    We sold Jobe for a record transfer yet had he stopped I'm not sure he would have been nailed on starting.
    I don't think any of us genuinely believed we would have recruited the way we have.
    I think it shows how well the model has been planned out. We heard so many times how KLD needed to invest in certain proven players to get us promoted. 3 of those signed for Sheff Utd, so that didn't work.
    It has allowed us to spend the way we have so far to actually have a realistic chance of establishing ourselves in the PL.

    It’s not cast iron, I don’t get info often but when I do it’s usually right. Few on here can back me up for that.

    the issue earlier wasn’t just the spreading of ITK. There’s more to it but I’m not getting into it.

    Lauriente discussions have been going on for weeks, trying to sort a deal out.

    Now we think Lauriente might be a Mundle replacement rather than a third striker does this bring getting a striker back on the table? Or a right winger? Surely not both?

    I think we’ll sign a RW who can either play the 10 or play upfront. Likely a left footer and a loan imo though later in the window

    we don’t necessarily need striker cover at this point.

    2 CBs GK Midfielder of some sort needs doing first

    its 420 miles to Rome, we've got a full tank of gas, half a pack of cigarettes, it's dark and we're wearing sunglasses. HIT IT!

    I know he’s doing recovery but I don’t recall seeing one photo of cirkin all pre season or in Portugal
