Just looking at the opening post from the other thread and it’s interesting we’ve not had a single striker linked this month. Nothing. Not even in unreliable click bait ****e. Over 3 weeks!
Definitely all gone quiet for a number 9. I think personally we won’t get one until the end of the window.
Talking to the landlord in my local tonight. He is a bit of a Rugby man, but has houses he rents out. One of those is currently occupied by a striker playing for a good conference side. Anyway, this player has just handed the keys back because he is away to a new club. The landlord didnt bother to ask where, but he said he turned left out the door, and you would go that way if you were going North. Could be something in it mate...
did you get his number plate? Surely we can get somebody on the ANPR cameras to see which service stations he stopped at
Got on the bus mate, had a couple of carrier bags of clothes and an old casey under his arm. I know nothing else.
Not at all. Ten Hag doesnt strike me as a players best mate type of coach. You dont need to be mates though to be a footballer. Pep said Xhaka does the best for his teammates and is special. That trait has always stood out. A proper team man above all. He wont sulk around the place imo. If I thought he was that type I wouldnt want him here.
I feel burnt by the Lauriente “here we go” so will wait for the scarf pic. Ten Haag’s comments seem slightly bizarre. It could be a clever move to reduce the pressure on him if things don’t go well. At least he’s on record saying he’s opposed to this deal. Still, it creates the appearance of a wedge between him and the sporting director.
I reckon if Xhaka wants the move it happens. He’s the captain, he’s well respected at the club. You’d like to think that’s a two way street. Delivered them an unbeaten league title and I’m sure they won a domestic cup that season too. And Ornstein normally waits until it’s concrete.
Team leader who is highly respected is attempted to be told by the new manager he can’t leave Yeah that will go down like a **** sandwich Pretty confident he ends up higher at a probably more inflated fee
Also it makes no sense that the club would allow him to negotiate with us and then not sell him it’ll happen unless we pull out
