Interesting that the article on De Jong by Hirst and Pol Ballus mentions that we want a striker, midfielder and Alvarez as the third player with no mention of a left-back, but maybe that's because we don't have a specific target there yet?

Am I correct in thinking we were somewhat strongly linked to Tagliafico a few summers ago? Surely he'd be a cheap option and is used to a similar system to ours, but then again maybe Ten Hag will want to take him to the rags

Weren’t there loads of reports of us asking for him as a part of the Ferran deal? We’ve probably been after him for a while if true

I think he’s much more mobile than rodri and could play 6 should we need more intensity in midfield for example

Wasn’t this same story pushed about a week ago? Reeks of a bargaining tactic for Mbappe to get more money from Madrid

Can’t see Madrid selling benzema especially if he wins the ballon’dor and surely Madrid have been aware of the Mbappe situation for a while if it’s even true

Reckon it's absolute bollocks just like the whole injury thing- he obviously has injuries but they weren't a problem until Madrid and Barca magically decided against signing him because of his record, coincidentally at the same time as reports come out that he's chosen to join us

I feel for him as he's such as easy scapegoat due to being the new boy and the pricetag, while he's obviously underperformed he's never been a player to rack up loads of goals and assists and I don't think is been anywhere near as bad as some people have made him out to be considering his role...

Norwich scarves out by the dozen

In fairness it was Eric Garcia playing next to him

I can't find the quote but I think like Laporte had started the season as first choice as Stones returned late from the Euros and Pep said he didn't want to drop Laporte as it would have been unfair so he's played ever since- obviously with injuries playing a big role in that

They're all turning on that Jamie Webster scruff now for advertising flight packages hahaha #SocialistReds

It feels like I'd back us to be the best team in the world and beat anyone comfortably when at full strength but as soon as a slight inconvenience goes against us like Walker going off or conceding we get rattled so easily. Seems like we always struggle when going behind/conceding nowadays...

Very poor timing on this advert isn't helping me get over the game when I logged on here..

In fairness, he's had no preseason after playing every game in the Euros too which definitely didn't help

Can't see why he's being blamed for the header? I'm under the view that the man infront should be responsible for Rodrygo not the man behind (Dias). The penalty was rash but his aggressive style of play saves much more goals in general than it causes for me, but i'll give the benefit of the...

The worst part about that is that all of France's defenders are currently shite too and he still couldn't get in, although Deschamps is a moron in fairness

Apologies for the repetition, I'm just lost at how everyone can see Stones should be playing every week apart from Pep, surely has something to with Laporte threatening to leave last summer?

Pretty sure it's been previously mentioned in here but i'd listen to offers for Laporte at this point, clearly has no chemistry with Dias and Stones is better than him. Tired of him shitting the bed so often now, he clearly has the quality to be up there with the best but really not convinced he...

Any news on Walker yet?
