    In his latest press conference Steptonho said he wants to turn Oliver Skipp into a first-team player

    ...errm, didn't Poch begin that process a year ago?

    The Cultaholic Five-A-Side team, given he's a dead ringer for Peter Austin from TripleJump

    ...so Joao Cancelo suddenly became a far more viable summer target

    Just Spitballing, But Stick With It...
    PSV's 17-year old attacking midfielder (and Steven Bergwijn's mate) Mohammed Ihattaren has spoken with Voetbal International saying how happy he is to see his mate join us and hit the ground running, while also talking about how much he hopes to move to a big club and play Champions League football

    By complete coincidence, according to Eindhovens Dagblad Ihattaren has also recently changed agents so it's highly likely he's thinking of a move...unfortunately his new agent happens to be Mino "****" Raiola, so while he may be on the move he won't be on the move without a grossly-inflated agent's fee

    Now there's a reason I bring him up: namely that, while his natural position is an attacking midfielder, PSV have been playing him on the right wing a fair amount this season, and given his combination of pace and technical ability he does have the potential to be a younger Ziyech, and considering he's a decade younger than Lucas and Lamela he could be a very useful addition to the squad

    No No No No No No No No...
    According to the Corriere dello Sport, Chris Smalling is a summer transfer target for us

    Couldn't Roma just admit they're not interested in making his loan permanent?

    Bundesliga Rando Watch
    That well-known font of all Bundesliga knowledge the Daily Wail reports that we're after Koln left back/left winger Ismail Jakobs, who's rapidly making a name for himself and not just because he nicked Steven Bergwijn's goal celebration

    The Other Bundesliga Rando Watch
    In what I am sure is a complete coincidence, we've also been linked with Taurine FC Salzburg youth striker Luka Reischl, who has been averaging 1.5 goals per game at academy level this season - no, that's not a typo

    On the one hand this sounds like us needling Leipzig, because the odds are if he continues developing as he is currently the odds are he'll be moved from Salzburg to Leipzig by his 21st birthday so us being linked with a potential starlet sounds like the usual transfer story-related gamesmanship...although is does need to be pointed out that this summer is the only time we'd be able to sign him prior to his 18th birthday, as after this summer we won't be able to sign U18 players from European clubs thanks to some dickheads who are easily duped by the side of a bus and the Daily Mail...

    Pretty sure they do want to keep him, they're just not going to pay what Utd are asking at the moment.
    Might be a pathetic attempt to force their hand.

    Think we need to give Barca a call and ask how we can convince our FA to allow us to sign a forward now that Son’s injured.

    Looks like we need an emergency loan

    ...don't suppose there's anyone in the Swedish or Norwegian leagues who fancies a few games during the off season?

    Well I'd imagine step 1 of that process would be to have your finances propped up by the national government.

    If anyone's wondering, we could actually sign him and he'd count as club and homegrown, so we've got the space... <whistle>

    Is it desperate of me to say I’d 100% take him right now?
