Wilfried. Fucking. Bony.

Totally agree. I think you and I were both of the opinion that Jesus could be the one that got away if he could just find that absolute self-belief in himself. You can tell Arteta has taken the time with him to let him know he has his unwavering support. He's been told, "I wanted you here more...

No matter what the rags offer him FDJ would be mad to sabotage his peak years by agreeing to join that shambles.

I've never said this about any other club but I hope Barcelona sink without trace. Would not regret their demise one bit.

Meanwhile, in the Old Toilet dressing room.......

Looks a decent move. Fair chance he'll be one of their better players so hopefully he'll get plenty of game time. I think this is a preferable option to the Prem where clubs will tend to bench an on-loan youngster as soon as the going gets tough.

Well, it did seem like Ake to Chelsea was nailed on so I guess there's that. Still expect Chelsea to get it over the line though.

The whole transfer is Brighton's 'stand by your beds' moment to out Romano once and for all.

Pretty disappointing news. I'm fairly sure City will sign a LB but you never know with this club. I know some people don't see missing out as that big a deal, but signing Haaland totally changes the dynamic of the team. I feel it will need a natural balance and width that wasn't quite so vital...

Have to admit, when the Chelsea stuff started coming out today I thought it would get wrapped up fairly quickly. Not the whole transfer but headlines saying 'Chelsea have reached agreement with Brighton to sign Cucurella' sort of thing. But nothing really. Felt @Damien10 got some unwarranted...

There Will Be Blood

Can't help always thinking his favourite band must be Chvrches.

I do remember dearly departed Gus posting this a while back when the Cucurella links started up.

There's literally no point to signing Gomez if you're accurate here. Pretty much all of that statement applies to JWE who is already a City player and has high potential. So, hopefully you are underestimating Gomez or this is a non-story.

I don't really see an issue with Brighton looking for a fee somewhere close to 50m for their best player. For those saying he's only had one good season it's very easy to flip that and say the guy has come to a new country and totally smashed it straight from the off, ending up one of the top...

Agreed. Especially when considering the prize summer signing is almost certainly going to benefit from the natural width and team balance a player like Cucurella would provide. If you were trying to conduct an exercise in minimising the effectiveness of Haaland, you would probably pick the exact...
