Benfica tend to expect giant fees for all of their young prospects even if they've got average stats. Ramos looks like he could actually be physical enough for our league though compared to Ekitike who would of gotten broke up by the big CB's in the prem imo.
It's frustrating as fans, but then we could've had idiots like moshiri getting no value whatsoever. I think come Sept 1st we'll be thinking they've done really well.
No they signed a player for 25 million that had proven he can score 10 plus a season in the premier league. The club was 19th! In January facing relegation, so you try and find a striker at that price under those circumstances just dying to risk championship football rather than say come back in 12 weeks. 25ms is **** all for a striker
Do they really? None of this information is coming directly from the club. Or is it? Who the **** knows?
I agree. I really can't picture Dan Ashworth negotiating a deal and putting the framework together then before he sends it over phones up Kaveh Solhekol at SSN for ****s and giggles.
Him and Darmesh on SSN talk a right load of ****e. I'd love to know how much they get paid for talking such drivel.
I mean, your a DOF with some of the juiciest gossip going......You have some very ambitious young reporters dying for a scoop at SSN including Bella Shah, Alice Piper, Emma Saunders, Gemma Nash, Melissa Reddy.........You're just not ****ing ringing Kaveh or Dharmesh like are you?
I love it on transfer deadline day when one of them says on TV "I've just got off the phone to one if my contacts and they saud that [insert player name] is heading to [insert team name] right now for a medical and to agree personal terms". Only to find out the next day it was never even a starter. I could do THAT.
Transfer deadline day will never ever beat the moment the lad stuck a dildo in the reporters ear live
I think that most clubs now are so good at covering their tracks that there is no such thing as in the know. We will either not sign anyone. Or it will be out of the blue and we will be like wow or wtf.
It's just the entire idea. 24 hour breaking news, twiddling pens they never use. It's an absolute cringe fest... It's never 1st to break any news either.. Twitter has demolished the channel.
That channel was destroyed the moment Murdoch of all people thought it was a good idea to go politically correct. I mean it used to be worth the watch just for the blart in tiny skirts and ridiculous heels
On a par with Talkshite. As if there's really enough happening in the world to warrant 24 hr sports "news". It's not like Dave from Hackney is going to ring up about the Commonwealth Netball bronze medal match. Same guff today, talking about the demise of Man Utd. Who gives a ****. I must've missed all the tears shed for Forest, Leeds, Villa, Blackburn, etc., when they were badly run. I certainly didn't hear any Talksport crying during 14 years of Ashley ****ing misery. **** the lot of them.
