    Because I’m not very bright, do you post this because you may know something or just because you can?
    And enjoy your holiday as well. Mrs K and me are off to Sydney next Friday to see our son. Can’t wait!

    Is this first time we have had a top source indicate he wants to join as well? I believe so

    For how long we’ve been after this one, the fact we have now went and submitted a bid does that indicate the club are confident this one gets done?

    I genuinely don't know how much we are going to spend. I know that the Jobe and Watson fee covers virtually all of the amortization for the first year so we could probably get to about 200m Euros. Honestly feels like we will get there

    We’ll have bench options of Mukiele and Lucumi because they aren’t getting in over Ballard atm if he was on the titanic it would have survived

    We are relentless, don’t envy Regis trying to pick his best 11 mind, so many options though beyond what any of us could have dreamt when that whistle went in may

    Neither header was world class but the keeper had three centre backs, for that reason, and can reasonably expect better cover in my opinion …

    … their problem was that both crosses were fired in early with pace.

    It’s the old Nicky Summerbee and Allan Johnston theory of football …

    … why bother running with the ball and beating defenders when you can just fling it onto someone’s head.

    I said, before the game, I don’t think we’ll see a ‘style of attacking’ or a star striker, more likely a spread of scorers and all kinds of goals from crosses/breaks/dead balls etc.

    Lucimi and a winger in and that is genuinely a perfect window. As in we would be strong in every area of the pitch. I'm content on strikers as I think there's no value there and we have 3 at the club already who can step up.

    I guess during AFCON would just play defenders :D Love this so much.

    As I said the other day, no problem for me having two left footers playing centre back, as long as one is comfortable playing on the right.

    Lucumi and a RW is genuinely a 10/10 window
    I'll concede it's probably at least a 9/10 currently though

    Potential AFCON 11

    Roefs
    Mukiele - Ballard - Lucumi - Hume/Alderete
    Xhaka
    Neil/Rigg Le Fee
    RW Mayenda Mundle

    It's not as strong as our main 11 but it's still definitely competitive

    Disagree marra.....Ballard's header was top drawer!
    He had to get his neck on that to power it.
    Brilliant!
