  1. With Rogers coming in, does anyone think that we'll see any other signings before the window slams shut?
  2. No smoke without fire on this one for me. Wouldn’t be surprised if Duran left before the end of the window. He should sack his agent but I’m pretty sure that, being only 20, he is putting far too much faith in his representatives and probably won’t see the bigger picture having the chance to develop here.
  3. Middlesbrough want £15m, which we have reportedly offered. The only thing to iron out now is structure of the deal, which shouldn't be too difficult to work through. The fact that Rogers has allegedly told Middlesbrough that he wants to join us this month should help speed up the process a bit.
  4. I’m still hoping that we sign another CM. But with FFP I can’t see it happening unless Traore and / or Chambers leave.
  5. Maybe Rogers is coming in to offer something for that 2nd forward role alongside Watkins. Would allow us to utilise Diaby on the wings instead.
  6. Could see De Zerbi going to Arsenal if Arteta leaves for Barcelona.
  7. Rogers proved against Chelsea that he could create something from nothing against a PL team, and that was after we had already identified him as a transfer target. We need someone like that, and £15m for a 21-year old English player (and apparent Villa fan) is a bargain. Diaby has proved that spending big money on players doesn’t guarantee instant results. Rogers is the sort of signing we would look at enviably if another PL team signed him.
  8. Really want us to try and get Jonathan Rowe. Looks a real talent and apparently West Ham are after him as well.
  9. Rashford is playing shit because he’s not due a new contract anytime soon. I think that’s twice now he has played well for half a season at the end of his contract, bagged a big pay bump, then reverted to shite again.
  10. Only if wanking off Monchi is part of his medical.
  11. I did think that Klopp would end up at Real Madrid in a year or so, but then remembered that he wouldn't know what to do with a club that spends money.
  12. Rogers and Rowe would be an excellent double signing in this window. But I imagine it would mean that one of Duran or Zaniolo would be off for us to sign both of them.
  13. I would still love an upgraded version of Sensible World of Soccer. This game is complete shite.
  14. Too much noise around his potential move for it not to be a possibility. They need to stump up £40m minimum though otherwise it's not worth our while.
  15. With Dendoncker going I wonder if we're still willing to let Chambers move on as well. I also can't see any loan deal for Traore happening in this window as he'll get injured getting off the plane back from the AFCON.
  16. If we can bring in Rogers and a young DM to replace Dendoncker then I think we will have had one of the best windows of any team.
  17. This game is a buggy mess. My son was playing a game on the draft mode and it randomly started jittering all over the place, with a player from the title screen doing overhead kicks in the middle of the pitch over and over again. Can't even be bothered to play career mode.
  18. Reyna’s injury record is piss poor. Would much rather we stayed away from signing players like that.
  19. Wonder if West Ham will bother going in for him now that Kalvin Phillips is heading there on loan.
  20. Let’s hope we’re bringing in another midfielder now that Dendoncker is off. I think that signing Rogers would be to replace Traore, so another midfielder would make sense. Wonder if there are any other young prospects that Monchi has identified.
  21. Aren’t we currently near the top of the table without being in the Champions League?
  22. I like to watch 5-minute clips of players on YouTube and then make my mind up. I also email the club giving my opinions as I'm quite a big deal when it comes to internet scouting.
  23. I agree that this could be a deal that we're looking at because the Zaniolo deal hasn't worked out that well so far. Might be that Zaniolo is being recalled and we are bringing forward a summer target. Could see this one happening, especially if the player is very keen on the move. However, I wouldn't want us to loan him back as he can spend the next 6 months getting used to Emery's expectations, ready for next season.
  24. Semih Kilicsoy is the young striker that I hope we sign.
