@Slurpcock I like the new avatar slurpy old son...

His corners and free kicks can be and are ususuallawful but, even on a bad day, his work rate is outstanding.
He has clearly gone (in his head) as his pre season performances showed no effort in comparison.
The is no way we are getting Dybala...if united could not agree wages with him then we will be nowhere near.
(That's not a dig at united or spurs...both run their wage structure to what they can afford).
Maybe he'll take less wages to live in London. I think we've missed out on players in the past who don't really know where Manchester is so don't want to live there and have also paid well over the odds on wages to convince players to live in Manchester (Di Maria). For some players London is the only city in England.His corners and free kicks can be and are ususuallawful but, even on a bad day, his work rate is outstanding.

There comes a time to go big and get your man though, if you add Coutinho and Dybala you would be dangerous. I hope you continue to shy away from such transfers.
There is that but as you’ve seen at United, bring a player in on huge wages and the rest start to down tools.
It also depends what Dybala you get, whoever buys him. Quite clearly he’s had a big knock to his confidence with Juve disowning him, perhaps somebody like Pochettino is exactly what the lad needs to get back to his best.
As for Eriksen, I think he’s waiting for a move that will never happen. If Real Madrid want him then you’d think it would rely on selling (and getting a big fee for) Bale.

Do they want to win things or just be the new Arsenal?
Im quite calm about it all tbh mate, I don't expect us to win the title over city they are just to strong imho, and just added another 70m player.I made it up for Sucky's sanity.
Tbh I am extremely cautious with this.
I remember 1991 and how only selling Gazza and winning the FA Cup saved us from going into receivership.
That memory has made me prefer us not to take risks but I ain't pretending that I am right.
I do see how we can afford a bit more but my honest view is that football is eating itself and sooner or later a big club is gonna **** up.
Genuinely hope I am wrong but deals being done in Euros over several years could well put unexpected financial costs on clubs just as sponsorship and tv deals put less money in.
Football is not immune to a financial meltdown.
But like I said I am overly cautious in that respect.

That was the dinosaurs attitude to a poxy bit of rock flying space and we know how that endedYou don't need to go nuts though it's 2 players.
