    Money talks. Ruben Neves left Porto as the captain of a CL team to join Wolves in the championship so anything is possible lol especially with PL money.

    Just off the top of my head Evanilson also left Porto for B’mouth. Sarr and Ndiaye left Marseille to go to Palace and Everton. Milenvokic went to Forest from Fiorentina think he’d been with them a while whilst they were regulars for European football too

    If people thought the 4 days of Mikautadze chasing was too long drawn out to be real, what are they going to think of the 3 year Abline chase?

    Just personal opinion but I don't think there's that much difference between the two in terms of quality. Put Abline in the Lyon side and he'd score a similar amount to Mika, put Mika in the Nantes side and he probably scores similar amount to Abline. Both good players and i'm happy with either.

    I would tend to disagree just because mikautadze got 17 in 20 in a relegated Metz side the season before last. He certainly has a more defined end product but that's natural with more games played.

    Very sceptical of performative internet ITKs who like to bounce between teasing vaguely and making grand and specific claims. Very, very sceptical indeed.

    Those are all exceptions though and Neves goes back to 2017. Read my post again, I'm hardly saying it's impossible, just highly unlikely. There are probably hundreds of transfer to the premier league every summer, how many would meet the threshold of playing at a big european club and moving to a newly promoted one, let's say in the last 10 years? You could probably count them on one hand, two if we're being kind.

    Me too but this is why this one's intrigued me. He stopped being cryptic and came out very openly and specifically.

    This reads like a gossip column similar to Copley's from yesterday. I'm not seeing it as a new source, more stating rumours

    Gerrin (hopefully), a good goalkeeper is absolutely critical for us

    Just watched an Abline highlight video after watching a Mikautadze one. I know highlight videos arent as useful as watching them.

    But it seems to me Abline might be better suited to the premier league. A bit more physical and with room to develop?

    He’s very aggressive in his press too. Never stops doing something
