We're getting Honeyman from Sunderland, seemed decent when he broke on the scene in the PL.

Liverpool's newest signing seems an absolute delight.

He only turned 16 a couple of months ago. Kids are idiots, we’ve all been that age doing stupid things like that.

I think **** is an underused word. I will be rolling with it at some point today.

Bailey Peacock Farrell joins burnley. I don’t know what is more shocking, that he has moved to a PL club or we got 3 million pound for him.

Yep, how anyone can be worse than Casillas is mindboggling.

Apparently Arsenal are paying £20m up front for Nicolas Pepe, and the remaining £52m over five years. Great piece of business.

Some impressive negotiating here from Arsenal.

As you can see, this old place is falling apart.

I reckon Arsenal will start to use Afterpay for transfers soon....

I don't really disagree, but he still comes across as a massive campaigner there, 16 or otherwise.

Well, not like that lol.

Yeah he does but I think it’s just down to immaturity more than anything.

If I was 16 and just signed for Liverpool.... I would show you what genuine campaigner looks like.

Why do you think he joined Liverpool? Fits right in

If the choice was Dybala or Fernandes who do United fans want?

 

[ossie_21]

What’s the reference I’m missing?

How about both.
They really are completely different players and both required. Reckon Fernandes deal is likely dead, only hope is the word that Sporting are waiting on the cup final before letting him go.

They need both.

Unless he's struggling with the balance of coach/manager wanting a player and thinking long term with regards to other targets, list balance, etc.

quietly fairly happy with Ndombele replacing the hole Dembele left.
If Foyth is RB, then Aurier is back up and KWP can continue to develop.
Vert, Alder, Sanchez - good core, with backups in Foyth, Dier, maybe Davies.
Winks Ndombele Eriksen Dele with Kane and Son upfront, Sissoko, Lamela & Lucas in reserve. Not to mention Dier, Vic & Skipp in emergency situations

Sign Sess. Replace Eriksen/Alder/Rose if they go.
Maybe monitor Bale situation in the event a cut-price fairy tale is on the cards.

Appears to be just frustration over transfers and this hints at the club being frustrated at factors out of its control.
Maybe need to wait for some dominoes to fall.

I can see poch at real madrid/barca next season

He's stated a bazillion times he'll never coach Barcelona.

Wasn't he at Atletico at one point?

 

[Sozabarus]

Rightly or wrongly he has a bit of a reputation for being more critical of black players.

 

[drd23]

Poch? No, he played the majority of his career at Espanyol and managed there too, hence why he'd never manage their local rival

 

[Marcel Proust]

Rom would bang them in at Juv

Absolutely mate, we’d all done stupid shit at that age. However when you’re a professional footballer you cannot go around doing/saying those kind of things without coping the deserved flack, regardless of age.
