    That gap looks smaller every day.

    What a cracking effort from the club, unbelievable what they've done tbh.

    That would be a stunning signing. Lads a beast.

    Actually started as a CB and was switched to RB I think, he was deffo a CB when he became of note at Leipzig.

    I wonder if we can give them Pembele back as part of the payment

    The scenes when Pembele scores the winner in CL final for them…

    Was saying to @Jarca yesterday that this lad makes so much sense. Covers RCB and RB so keeps numbers down

    Knows xhaka from last season as well

    Would be a weird social visit two days before PSG start their league season

    Couldn’t agree more with this Smug mate.
    Not in my wildest dreams did I think we’d have a summer like we’ve had so far.

    Of course we could still go down but it won’t be from a lack of ambition and backing from the club.

    Another way to look at it is that many PL games I watched last season were poor and I often said to Mrs B that it was like watching a Championship game at times. Saying that, I’ll be quite happy with 17th as well.

    Doubt it’s for the mags. They’ve got two RBs and just signed a new CB

    Its a ruse, they have used his name to sneak Dembele in ready for his unveiling tomorrow before the game :emoticon-0102-bigsm

    The thing that gives me the most hope of survival is the club videos.

    We know that the team bond last season carried us. Every video you can see the new lads front and centre involved and engaged.

    That’s so important. Also settles them faster.

    The lads will stand tall together. We will get some lessons and some slappings for sure but we will bounce back when it happens.

    Leeds and Burnley will get way more points than the bottom 2 last season.

    It’s there. I truly believe us and Leeds can both survive.

    Think he’d be coming to start no ?
    Remember him being fantastic for that Rb Leipzig defence and with Konate and Upamacano.

    He will be aiming to for sure, but i have a feeling about Hume and Ballard this season. We need quakity players to push them and this lad def does it, he's pacey and powerful and good on the ball. Can play CB in a 4, RCB in a back 3, RWB and RB - will offer valuable depth

    This is so important. It's not just about our points tally, it's about the other teams dropping points too. Last seasons relegated teams were all ****, and barely took points of the bottom half sides so the gap was massive. In a way, it would benefit us is Leeds and Burnley win quite a few (just not as many as us).

    Finishing 17th this season would be a greater achievement than winning promotion last season. It’s going to be ridiculously tough

    Looks as if he’s missed a lot of football over the last couple of years but is clearly a talented lad.
