  1. He's the one who first reported our interest.
  2. We'll sign De Bruyne and then have him cover behind Matty as he bombs forward.
  3. Burn the club to the ground. Collect the insurance money. Everybody goes their separate ways.
  4. I think Sarr is a very good player, but this makes absolutely no sense. The last thing this team needs is another attacking forward. It already has too many.
  5. Bednarek, or Southampton? That's the thing about CBs. They're often blamed for the shortcomings of the midfielders ahead of them. When you're asked to play a high line and the midfield allows the opposition to break through with one pass, there are very few CBs in the world who can make up for it. But that's why Van Dijk, Koulibaly, etc are paid what they're paid.
  6. Low block? Southampton plays a remarkably high line in possession.
  7. While it's not a move I'd be excited about, think a lot of you are being excessively harsh on Bednarek. He's not a superstar, but he certainly isn't terrible. He's more well-rounded than Konsa as a player.
  8. Were those players linked with City, Chelsea, Liverpool, etc when they were signed? This very thread is talking about Liverpool being interested in Ramsey. We just sold Carney to Chelsea for £20 million despite him not having accomplished a damn thing. This entire thread has devolved into nothing but people complaining we either aren't buying enough or selling enough. It's maddening.
  9. Because they all ended up signing for Man City and Chelsea. Brighton, Watford and Palace aren't signing them, either.
  10. It's incredible how nearly two-thirds of voters are in, yet 80% of posts on this board are out. Goes to show what the driving force behind expressing an opinion usually is.
  11. It's hard to judge seeing as how Marseille are a ball dominant team in that league.
  12. If they don't stay up they'll be in a lot of trouble.
  13. Because we're owned by NSWE and not Jorge Mendes. Some clubs are owned by nation states, Wolves are owned by an agent.
  14. Mostly because he's not any good. He'll probably end up at Roma where he can be a backup to Tammy.
  15. This board won't even allow itself to enjoy a victory. Come on, fellas! Smile!
  16. My thoughts and prayers are with Gregggggggggggg
  17. Well, if it's just straight information you're looking for, there's a whole internet out there. If you're looking to avoid boring sods discussing their opinions, a forum is probably the last place you should look for it, seeing as it's the foundation they're built upon.
  18. I'd give the $50 million to Antonio Conte and then I'd ask him who he wants me to sign.
  19. Watched Villa yesterday and was immediately on the phone with his agent.
  20. Of course, but the difference is that Ollie has more skills than just being fast. I'm not convinced Werner does. Nearly all his goals with Leipzig were on the counter when he'd beat a high line and run in behind it and get a one-on-one. When Werner isn't attacking on the counter he doesn't offer a whole hell of a lot.
  21. It's not all about stats, no, but they help explain to us what our eyes are seeing at times. In his final season at RBL he scored 28 goals on an xG of 22.4, which suggested he was quite lucky, and those Chelsea numbers seem to show that the "luck" has run out. Also, from what I've deduced from my eyes, I don't think his strengths as a player fit into the style Gerrard has this team playing. For me, he's much better suited to the Bundesliga than the Premier League. Finally, his greatest asset has always been his pace, and he's not going to get any faster than he currently is. He'll only get slower., so it's a no thanks from me.
  22. I find it funny how many people complain about Ollie missing his chances yet so many of the same people would take Werner. In Premier League play, Ollie has scored 25 goals on 28.2 xG for Villa while Werner has scored 10 goals on 19.5 xG in two seasons with Chelsea.
  23. I would guess players like Guilbert and El Ghazi can be moved, but not until late in the window when teams have been forced to give up their dreams of bigger prizes.
