    If by "good form" they mean "got injured, and then couldn't get off the bench for a team that almost got relegated", sure. I doubt we're in for Castaignos, which is nice, because he isn't all that good.

    Probably directly quoting the agent who made that rumour up to be fair.

    Koeman isn't here anymore. We need to be linked with random french players.

    He scored two in two in the games I saw. Looked a fast and strong player and would be good back up.

    Liverpool's transfer policy must've rubbed off on their Merseyside neighbours. Paying over the odds for "proven" premier league players that have had 1/2 good years. And I stress the word good, Bolasie (admittedly been here longer than 2 years) has been exceptional at times but overall he hasn't had one consistently amazing season. Kone another similar one.

    More then enough in the squad to start the season. We will get the players in that we need by the end of August, I'm confident of that.

    I just find it fascinating how committed they are to the little copy-and-paste talking points every paper seems to use for every unjustifiable transfer rumour. 30 seconds of research is apparently beyond them.

    There is a signing on the way for us here (SFC) but it's not quite over the line yet.

    I think we can safely say AR 10 is genuine. Seems to match the info I have.

    I guess I can reveal he plays on the left side of attack without compromising too much.

    Backs up what I said about a wide player.

    Seems silly to me but to be fair it's not really the writer's fault. It's all about #content and #numbers now.

    I don't begrudge the writers, for the most part. But the more logical pulled-out-of-arse explanation was right there...I mean, former Twente star (kinda) available for a cut-rate price because he had a rough year makes much narrative sense than suggesting that he was in a rich vein of form, yet his club was willing to part with him for a bowl of lukewarm oatmeal and a creased photo of Helmut Kohl.

    Also, a wide player? Yeah, I don't think that the football ops people expect the dalliance with a no-wingers formation to last.
