Declan Rice

[Rammy Blue]

Not flapping mate? Just stating the fact we wanted Bellingham and Rice was the plan B and we`ve lost out on him as well?

And? Oh woe is us, we only won the treble last season…

It does actually look like City intentionally drove up the price. Smart work Txiki.

Not really, West Ham have their valuation and are sticking to it. If any team bids want they want, they'll accept it

Our club will have better seasons than their new clubs.

Hopefully mate but we need another world class midfielder still? KDB injured for the start of the season and picks up knocks as well?

Just like 3 summers ago we missed out on Koulibaly and Kounde and ended up signing Ruben. I wouldn't be too bothered about it, Rice is not worth that anyways.

We kind of got lucky with Dias tbh, if benfica Didn’t lose the champions league qualifier he would have stayed.

who’d have know that the woman on talk sport was right all along!

 

[SWP's back]

Does Gaughan usually get his information spot on ?

On things like this, yes.

I would rest very easily if that was your follow up offer

And I wouldn’t blame you.

Yeah weird we bid 90m but won’t bid 105m

 

[Dobsy]

Arsenal trying to buy success. We just can’t compete with such crazy bids. ;)

This is one positive that will come out of this. All that shit about City buying football and nobody can compete but once again it's our rivals who are the ones breaking the transfer record.

 

[Tugay One Cup]

I wouldn’t anticipate the arrival of another midfielder now.

Kovacic has replaced Gundo (all be it Kova will play deeper much of the time allowing Foden to play centrally as a like for like replacement for Gundo).

Phillips will also be much better next season.

If Foden is playing more centrally then we need another winger. If he's staying out wide then we need another centre mid.
