It's Quiet Thread 15 - Txiki Blinders

He seems to play well with Kane for England, so if that deal comes off, hopefully that will cheer him up

Think he plays better with a centre forward, whether thats Kane, previously Aguero, or whoever we buy for next season, he’ll be back to his best.

I can see them giving Bayern 60 m for Lewandowski & Bayern spending that on Haaland

I really can’t. They need a CB, DM and RW. They don’t have the money for a CF unless it’s someone like Danny Ings.

Lets hope that Haaland doesnt end up anywhere else in the premiership over the next few seasons.....him ending up at the scousers or rags or chelsea would not be good.

Good point. I don’t think it is any coincidence that raz’s massive drop in performance has coincided with us playing a false 9

There is another disturbance in the force...

The final reckoning is nigh and the evil empire will be crushed under clarion and the feet of destiny...

The son of Haaland must not become a Jedi?

If that's the case, that may have been why the Sergio news was announced when it was? I always thought the timing of that was strange.
Then we had Haaland's people flying around Europe, so maybe they got tipped off about the developments.

Who knows, and no idea what will happen, but things seem a bit clearer to me now.

Wouldn’t want to play you at Cluedo, that all adds up pretty nicely..!

Well something has to happen soon as his contract is up in 6 weeks. I’m actually surprised it’s so quiet.

I know Messi is a special case but.....serious question......can anyone think of a player that has ever run his contract down this far and stayed at the club as a player...ever?

Im not saying he definitely won’t stay just wondering if anyone can think of a similar case since the Bosman ruling?

Unusual to say the least!

Hopefully Fernandinho :)

When was the last time the rags actually bought a player they needed instead of appeasing social media & overseas fans.

Van Persie? Or was that the last time they bought a decent player?

They still had GPC then. Since Ed Woodhead has been pulling the strings.
