    Not in your group and don't know if there is any truth in it or not (not doubting you btw), we've got a German mob from Stuttgart doing some subcontracting work for us. They have mentioned this lad previously as being a bit of a radge but also being a very good defender.

    He's massive and all left foot, but prepared to put his head on anything and reads the game very well. Downside is that he's not the quickest.

    They would be disappointed to lose him and would be surprised if we got him.

    Sounds decent to be fair. Must stress, I know nothing about the lad personally, all from what they have told me.

    It’s really tricky to clarify this but I think the two is domestic loans and that you can also have international loans.i think Ipswich had three at one time last season, one from Brighton and two international loans.

    It might not be a player but somebody has gone to the AoL today via helicopter

    Isak training at the AoL after signing his Liverpool deal seems unlikely especially when they are having a big BBQ bash at Blue Flames

    I'll be honest, I've never heard of the player before I looked him up, I trust certain people in that chat because they've been proven correct on several occasions, one of them is even a prominent journalist, so I trust the information in there but the difference between concrete offers and informal discussions of shortlisted players is huge and it's not possible to tell which is which.

    In my opinion,DCL is exactly the kind of player we'd have signed in our previous lives,and I hope we don't go anywhere near him. He's been up there and come back down,injury prone,high earner,his present club, who are hardly top contenders, want rid.Given his age,what sort of length contract would he want. Signing him goes against all our previous mantras.....if Everton want to do a part ex deal for Neil, don't take it. If they want Neil,they'll have to buy him outright.

    Bologna fans today on a Lucumi post, maybe something hit Italian newspapers or a Bologna ITK hinted something? But they seem to think he’s coming here





    Then a WBA fan yesterday regarding Heggem and Bologna

    The Calvert-Lewin that Ancelotti had is a £40m striker. Unfortunately, he's been unable to stay fit and healthy for a long time. He seems to be the type that never plays through a knock.

    I was a big fan in his early days, loved his work ethic and he was a threat in the air.

    On a free transfer and for a financial package that doesn't break our structure, he's worth a punt imo. PL experience and knowing how at a knock down rate. He's also only 28, if he can find form, he's a huge asset.

    Also wasn’t Bologna supposed to be meeting with Lucumi this week to discuss his situation? Maybe something has came of that.

    Calvert-Lewin link has to be fake, smells like an Ellis Short era signing and totally different to Xhaka who is a leader of men.

    Hes 28. Would he be happy being 2nd or 3rd choice?

    I always liked the quote attributed to Alex Ferguson about, I think it was Luis Saha. That he didn't know the difference between being hurt and being injured. Basically insinuating that he wouldn't play unless he was 100% but the reality is, when you're putting your body through what these lads have to you're rarely going to be 100% and completely free of little strains and niggles.

    It's the mentality and the knowledge (of your own body) to know the difference and it must be a huge thing in the modern game. Particularly with all the information, diagnosis and analysis available.

    Interesting that his fashion era coincided with his decline and subsequent depression.
