    We usually anounce signings late. To stop the press printing it in the morning papers.

    Do you think there is much chance of an announcement tonight? I wonder why they want to keep a signing out of the morning papers.

    Klopp said he found it amazing people's obsession with spending on "big money" signings. Marginally hypocritical, but I hear you Jurgen.

    I wish. I work from home, but decided (last week) that today, yep the hottest day of the year, would be a great day to drive to our Plymouth office for 3 days......

    OMG I can never work in an office again! [emoji3]

    OK, so I understand that it is hard to keep talented players, but then how do Everton manage to hold onto Barkley, Lukaku etc. I think teams know we are more willing to sell, yest I guess Everton pay bigger wages but we do seem to get ransacked more than anyone else.

    Because the money they're asking for those two is way over their actual value I guess. But yes, wages.

    Could be because no one has actually bid for them yet? Stones had a bid come in and he went.

    Combination of wages, their valuation and that our whole business model is about selling players to try and improve

    Just a small snippet and not really anything exciting but Cuco is very much off to rejoin KoKo.

    Not rated by Claude and doesn't think he suits the system.

    Maybe it's because the fans moan too much and the players know this...
