Lucas Paqueta investigated by FA for alleged betting breaches

[mancboy]

“Still negotiating for Paqueta and Doku, and we are going to get Twatted by Newcastle”.

newcastle are indeed a good team but its astounding how we've gone from treble winners to a pub team in less than 2 months

But say we offer £70m and dont believe he`s worth a penny more and they want £80-85m minimum then surely you move on to a new target quicker? With KDB now out we need another creative player in the ranks?

You offer 70m knowing he's worth 75m, and they ask for 85m knowing he's worth 75m, then eventually you both agreed somewhere in the middle

Have you ever bought or sold a house? You don't just pay whatever someone is telling you want, certainly not when you've just won a treble!

It is funny how reactionary people are being to Newcastle beating Aston Villa. Newcastle is a regular juggernaut after one game.

its almost like people didnt watch that game isnt it, villa should have scored 3 while engaging in some completely suicidal defending, im not disputing that they are a good team but that game does not tell the whole story

Plus Villa had a major Psychological blow in the middle of game due to one of their players getting hurt. It was a weird game.

Usually when we walk jack gaughan etc will say we are no longer in for the player

I’m sure if we do the briefed press pack will let us know..

Newcastle played very well but I think it's also as much to do with ourselves looking well below our best, with KDB, Stones, Bernardo, Gundogan, Dias and Mahrez missing. Hopefully we will have Stones and Dias back Saturday, for more defensive stability, and outside chance of Bernardo?

If we could do Paqueta, Doku and Fati on loan that would set us up extremely nicely for the season ahead imo.

Doubt the rags would loan us Luke Shaw

Have we sent the carrier pigeon with the improved offer yet?

We did but it got delayed by stopping off at a warehouse rave in Essex
