    100% agree - we should be all over South America - that's where the value comes. Look at players like Caiceido - signed for 5m then sold for 115m 2 years later. Africa as well, there's got to be some Eto's, Toure's. Drogba's and Mane's to find out there.

    Steady Eddie this is far to logical for our club.

    Imminent movement on João Pedro apparently, with NUFC willing to pay around £60m and very confident of signing the player.

    Solid player. Him and traffford look nailed on. Two more is the expectation, plus others if opportunity presents itself.

    Hopefully a CB and a RW, but we'll see.
    May need a midfielder too, if we sell Willock or Longy.

    Think we need a mf as Pedro is the RW. CB will happen I imagine.

    Man United will actually be back in the mix next season.

    It's OK we're looking at Dewsbury Hall and you might want to screenshot this one :emoticon-0148-yes:

    Absolute bollocks. The formation is all kinds of wrong and they’d need to buy at least 6 top players, and hope they gel, to make it work. Cunhas good but a maverick, they’re getting the wrong psych profiles in if you ask me (which nobody did, or does). I think Radcliffe will operate under the belief that they can make billions from player sales when the reality is people will be looking to pick them off.

    They’ll be back eventually - they have players like Heaven, Amad, Collyer, York and a few more. But it won’t be next season and it won’t be playing 343.

    DPP beat me to it <laugh>. Yeah, it was you, writing in The Telegraph.

    You also suggest that signing both João Pedro and Elanga in this same transfer window is a possibility.

    I should think Saudi league clubs will happily pour money into their hands via player purchases... If the players agree to the moves.

    He's setting the fanbase up for the failed to land him in the end card.

    Your track record would suggest we are after someone else entirely.

    This is precisely what I'm saying... He likes to put out stories about targets knowing fans will become obsessed with them and then when it doesn't happen he enjoys the tears.

    Plays the fans like a pack or cards.
