Course I do. Used to jump about the country on Granada Tonight. Seemed a good bloke though I think he got Yewtreed if I remember right

We were short on goals last season from previous seasons. I don’t think we’ll be as successful relying on false 9’s again.

I agree.

It's just...weird that we'd be in on Kane to such a degree, but then when it goes tits up - sit back and say "ah we don't need a goal scorer/striker anyway"

It’s hardly a hardship to click on the tweet and press ‘translate tweet’. No need to be so hostile towards posters.

"We wanted Kane, but the current cast has enough goals for the season"

Something about that feels off

Laughable isn't it. "We were happy to drop 130m on a striker to score goals for us but now have decided we never needed one anyway"

Could well be the last night at the transfer window.

Part of me feels that we’d have only walked away from Kane at any price had we lined up an alternative. Ronaldo for 2 years makes a lot of sense because it essentially fixes the problem (and then some) and keeps us actively in the market for the next 2 summers.

He scored 29 goals in 33 games in Seria A last year. More than Lukakus 24 in 36 for the league champions. The man is still a machine.

Are you Welsh?
Why do you want to shag the English?

Sounds like someone having a sulk.

Being English doesn’t necessarily mean you can’t understand other languages. Just usually

Even Aston Villa came out after we activated the release clause for Jack and said they tried everything to not do a deal with us including calling Madrid ffs

Aston Villa never came out and said they had offered him to Madrid ffs

He tried to milk that moment to death

 

[Academica]

The club wanted them. And thought they got him. And were massively wrong.

When did the club ever say they thought they had got him?

 

[moggymoz]

Has Steven (@twosips) posted anymore info yet? or is he still splashing about on his canoe in the middle of nowhere...

 

[Losblue]

If only we had the money to buy a fucking striker.
