We use the phrase tapping up, but it's actually remarkably difficult to do. I said its easy to do. Its difficult to catch and prove people did it ? 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But we haven’t dropped £30m on Ings for the bench, he doesn’t operate as a lone striker and Watkins won’t be dropped anyway, so for me Buendia moves to AM behind a 3 of Ollie — Ings— Bailey. Attacking AF so having lots of CMs to rotate is a good thing - they’ll be working hard!! Martinez Konsa Mings Cash Luiz Targett SJM /JWP Buendia Bailey Ings Watkins ala Real Madrid 2013-14 Champions League and Copa del Rey winners.

Used to be a top top midfielder. Still is to me anyway. Could be our Cambiasso. Calling agent Young… No way should we be touching any player for whom you can't create a chant for ..... we are bigger than that ...... and as for Chukwuemeka ........... 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There's more speed cameras now but there's also the M6 Toll which couldn't be much closer to Bodymoor Heath. If Axel lives in Cheshire like a fair few footballers, the commute might be quite acceptable for him. Fours hours in a car daily sounded high to me but, whatever it is, he must feel comfortable with the situation. I didn't disagree with the general gist of your original post though, it does seem a slightly surprising move to move to be a back-up. When I lived in Salford Quays, it would take me 1hr 30 - 1hr 45 to get to Sutton Coldfiel. Sometimes 2hrs plus depending on traffic. But Yh, Cheshire to Bodymoor might be a little bit closer. Google maps reckons 1hr 30, so Yh probably knock off 15 minutes if you speed, so Yh I probably overestimated. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
