Are we on for another flapping day or is it chilled out Sunday ?

I'm keeping all options open. A crate of Fosters, which will leave me sober enough to flap if the mood takes me.

Perhaps it's being 48, and living through the drought that was the 80's and 90's and 2000's, that means that I couldn't flap if I tried. These are the best of times, and we are going places.

Don´t worry, this will be a great summer!!!
Leave the flapping to the kids:

well there is no play at Wimbledon so I expect Tolm to pop in :)

But it's relevant, mate. We could probably have got Walker two weeks ago for £80m. Not sure it would be good business though. Or what effect it would have on any of our other targets.

agree mate.....Guess I should have held back my comment for another 7 days!;) Alot is likely to happen on the transfer front between now and leaving for the US tour!

he popped on last night...posted something about "how long can we stare at each other down he barrel of a gun".....or something like that......


Don't know if the gun reference is a deliberate point to sanchez (i.e. the gunners) ro just a general reference to a stand off on some of our transfers with other clubs....could be both I guess.

The major concern for me this summer s the lack of any noise about a top quality pacey DM. IMO after our full backs the most important position we need to fill.

Think Sam(goal) mentioned on podcast that DM wasnt on the shopping list this summer. Seems like fullbacks and a forward is at the top of the list. Maybe they feel Yaya/Fern/ Gundogan can get the job done. I agree a long term answer for DM is a must but think thats a job for next summer....both Yaya and Fern are out of contract in 2018, so maybe Pep has plans for find a long term replacement if/when they leave....

This. Added to that Garcia and even a stones/Kompany/kolarov maybe playing there knowing pep, i don't think it's a priority this season, especially if Delph or Fernando stay.
