I cant argue with that mate....bloody beautiful!!! ;)
The only two games of note you recall are inglorious defeatsMaybe "o.k" is not good enough.......I think this year is different....I would say, after winning the prem we got too comfortable thinking we could win it again...now we trying to get back on top...
I haven't seen as much as most on here but I was there when Spurs beat us in the FA Cup and Luton town scored in last 5minutes to relegate us....so I've seen a lot of shit mate!;) Much prefer to see us winning the prem! Was just trying to explain why some might flap this transfer window....and wouldn't knock any fan if they got alittle worried even in June!

You're some jinx
Right you bastards. Stop trying to turn this into the Isco thread. I'n not going though that again ;-)
Not to continue on the same thread here but KDB is the only 1 out of those 3 that we have viable options to if we miss, Isco. Sterling and pogba doesn't have any equals who tick those boxes like they do, kdb has.
... so why are people so worked up about flappers?It's not fucking life or death you know!

Because I have to read all their fucking shit in order to moderate it... so why are people so worked up about flappers?
Don't normally venture up here, and now I remember why [emoji16]Because I have to read all their fucking shit in order to moderate it
And some of it is so hysterical I think they need to see their doctor for some help
I know what you mean. We can find alternatives to KDB if we have to. There aren't many players that have pace and will create and score so many - certainly not for the same price. Many offer a combination of one or other but not all of those. Sterling for example needs to work on his goal scoring. Reus isn't going to ghost past players, he's more like Nasri with trickery on the ball... it's a tough one.
It's never long before a player of KDB's ilk comes along though. He's an exciting talent and though prices are hugely inflated these days I think he's worth the money. Looking at the fee the rags paid for Depay - who is a much bigger risk - I think it's worth it.
When you look at comments like this does anyone else think the quality of players on the market is actually lower this year?As good as Pogba and Sterling are, there are always alternatives. You only have to look at Andre Gomes, Verratti even if we wanted to be really offensive. As for wingers, Reus, Brahimi, etc
They have form. The last few summers have seen us linked with players who were said to be "in the bag" yet the windows turned out to be a sad let down. It's about time we turned back the clock and really got back to the days when we were signing players of the quality of Aguero and Yaya instead of the benchwarmers that we actually ended up with.... so why are people so worked up about flappers?

When you think Suarez, Bale, Neymar, Ozil, Di Maria (not saying he's exactly shone), Sanchez, Rodriguez, Kroos were all on the move in the last couple of years now the biggest buys are Pogba, De Bruyne and Sterling (although I do believe Griezmann to be the best on the market) imo it's a step down from proven class to largely raw potential + one excellent season.
