Summer transfer window

I know. ****ing shocking eh?

 

Just wanted to use the gif

 

Yes mate ... the squad that finished in the top 6 of the Premier League for two out of the last 3 seasons, including Youri Tielemans, is currently at the pre-season training camp in Evian ... and unlike last season, the first choice XI are all injury free and ramping up their fitness levels for the new season ...

How's the Poundland transfer trolley dash going? ... any more virtual unknowns, or otherwise unwanted, joined the Great Toon Revolution yet?

 

The traffic cones will be apoplectic at that ...

 

Fail

 

Manchester United's Portugal forward Cristiano Ronaldo, 37, has received an offer of 300m euros (£254m) to play for two seasons for a club in Saudi Arabia. (TVI and CNN Portuguesa, via AS - in Spanish)

Why not just say he is wanted by Newcastle

 

I thought Ten Haag saying Maguire is Captain was a mistake but looks like they are in for Martinez and no way Maguire starts over Martinez and Varane so Ten Haag may just have been avoiding upsetting a player.

 

Arsenal get their man

 

It was good man management. What's he supposed to say, Maguire is **** so no way is he captain?

He's given him a boost.

We could easily go back three with those you mention. Plus you never know when Varane could be injured next.

A bit of sports washing here a bit of sports washing there

 

Netherlands defender Matthijs de Ligt, 22, is willing to accept a pay cut to join Bayern Munich from Juventus. (Bild - in German)

Old Chelsea would have him signed up having offered obscene wages

New Chelsea will have to make do with re signing Nathan Ake

 

Possibly yes but you also need someone to take over as Captain and players have to accept that a new manager may have new ideas. If he's moving him to the side quietly then good man management, if he's keeping him as Captain then not so good.

 

I’ve always wondered if captain really means anything to the players. They talk to the ref, do the coin toss, do more media stuff off the pitch etc, but do top level pro players really give a **** who is the captain and look up to him etc? Do they **** imo

 

Ooofft I've not seen this much ^^^^^^^^^^^^ #fear since

Fear of what exactly?

 

I do fear they won't play maguire anymore tbh

Mans simply comedy gold

 

Of a world class defence with our new no-nonsense Argie cb under Ten Hag.

100% clean sheet under the new manager so far and that's without Martinez!

 

Haha.

Too early for jokes

 

K I'll post it again after 12.

 

Btw Eriksen announcement incoming.
