We had a few dodgy signings that I had great hopes for that largely sunk like lead weights. The French lad who had blood clots on trips longer than an hour - Toure , Negouai with dodgy knees , Vouso who I don't believe actually existed, the italian aussie full back who sounded like the colliseum...

Would rather give Borges a go.

That’s what I had heard both from people involved in the medicals (know people who worked with medical staff at both Leeds and City who said both clubs had been given huge warnings as to his condition without obviously sharing specifics) and also had been invited to lunch with Keegan along with...

I think even at 33 he has at least 3 good seasons left in him. Pep obviously looking to stick with same system and buy players that fit within in it. Expect he is content with Akanji/Stones and Lewis for the right side and if we picked up Rice and Gvardiol then would be ok with this. Wish him...

If they have not broken the law but merely breached the rules of the PL then I would assume that all clubs have signed up to bearing by the decision of the panel set up by the PL. If Everton or others feel , if they have been found guilty , that the penalty is disproportionate I would assume...

Mind playing tricks as I always thought that went to a replay and and Jordon got sold before it got played, remember we'd eventually won but might have been a league game played straight after. Was 9 and not allowed to go anywhere near Elland Road. Overprotective parents

Phillips had 50 Premier League games under his belt compared to 200plus from Declan Rice. Was not convinced by Phillips at Leeds or for England and was bought as cover. Rice looks a few levels above and would challenge for a regular slot I believe. Yes he would have to improve but at 24 think...

Pining for what's already been lost and gone and what never was. Think we all saw what he had the potential to be but he never reached the heights we imagined he could. Time to move forward not back.

That was a strange one as he never seemed enthusiastic about us going for Messi. Think the club saw it as a way of boosting our profile but don't think Guardiola was 100% convinced.

Think he wants to make the most of his chances to experience something different. Has had the opportunity to up his wages if that’s what he wanted but clearly wants to keep his options open. Barca would have to offer up a player to take him from us so not sure where he goes. PSG have the cash...

The challenge is to maintain the hunger and desire within the collective group of players , coaches , board , tea lady and fans whilst knowing you will not always succeed every time but no one has a right too. When we fail its not about blaming anyone else but getting back up , learning from it...

Without a doubt. Make no mistake even winning the double with 3 in a row and beating United in the final would have been described as failure in the national press if we lose that CL final. It would have been used to diminish the achievements of the Pep era as much as they could. That goal boxes...

With proper rest (think around 3 months to recover) and careful management as he returns he will be fine. Age may play its part but think he has a good 2 to 3 years left in the tank. The issue this year has been the lack of breaks and with the short mid season again could have impacted him but...

Three months for a grade 3 year to make sure fully healed and take no risks. Would give him all that time to rest up and heal.

Who gives a flying f—k what united fan’s think or say. They are hurting and will hit out because the myth they held in their heads about being the best coming from something in their DNA and a never say die attitude has been blown apart. They were appalling in the FA cup and folded like cheap...

Most important thing is not to lose our heads. They play with a packed defence and break with numbers as their normal style. Ideally we score early and it’s a different game. Having not done that we need to be patient, keep possession, keep them moving and take the chance when it comes which it...

Think he is 28/29 so £52m a bit steep but he is a decent player with an exceptional ability at free kick deliveries. Not top 4 quality. Would have thought he would have suited Everton and Dyche delivering to a big centre forward but Everton being skint rules them out. If the price gets...

Agree with what you are saying but will be 5 champions league slots up for grabs going forward. Don't think the G14 will except being out of the competition think they will just keep expanding it until they all fit in !!!

Too many twists and turns can happen until the pen hits the paper and even then it can go wrong if its not filed in time. I think we were firmly in with a shout for Bellingham but you can't win em all. Remember the Gerry Francis story where he was sat outside an office at City waiting to sign...

Think they will sweep the South/Central American and Asian markets for players to go alongside a dozen or so big name but ageing players from the different continental federations to act as influencers for the WC bid. Do you think we could interest them in a big money bid for Scott Carson ?
