I'm not that cynical, but I do feel that midway through last season it probably did start to turn sour both on and off the pitch.I doubt he even gave us a 2nd thought at any point during his time here.

I suspect he rang his Agent on a daily basis asking if anything had come up yet.I'm not that cynical, but I do feel that midway through last season it probably did start to turn sour both on and off the pitch.
I'd say all the right things for 11m a year too. He never gave a toss.I suspect he rang his Agent on a daily basis asking if anything had come up yet.
It's weird that people think people hate Benitez cos Carlo left.I'd say all the right things for 11m a year too. He never gave a toss.
Good to see the players smiling again at that cup thing. I know we like to give them dogs abuse but who really performs at work under that sort of atmosphere ?This preseason has the same feel to it as the year Rooney left..... Galvanised the squad and we finished 4th,. Obviously not saying that will happen, but seems as if the spirit is good amongst the squad.
Mediocre players for big money tooI have no doubt the board really want to be successful, but their actions in recruitment are not good enough, and haven't been good enough for several years. You can't expect to sign mediocre players repeatedly and compete for trophies.

Who is going to buy Kean for £40m in this market? Nobody, that's who. We might get £20m right at the end of the window if Mbappe is sold and it won't be £20m up front either. Italian clubs don't have a pot to micturate in, so they won't be buying him. PSG are, unfortunately, in a very strong negotiating position.I agree, but I think to get a new RB and RW we would probably have to sell Kean. So if we sold Kean for £40m, we could possibly then sign Dumfries for £25m, paying £15m up front and £10m later, then sign Baily for £30m, paying £15m upfront and £15m later and a back up striker for around £10m
We have to ask ourselves 'What would Levy do ?' Probably hardball it and keep Kean, see what happens in Jan.Who is going to buy Kean for £40m in this market? Nobody, that's who.

There must be some player swaps we could do with either Juve or PSG for kean.Who is going to buy Kean for £40m in this market? Nobody, that's who.

Who's going to pay more? We'll end up keeping him because the only takers want to pay less than we can accept or want to take him on loan again.We won't sell Kean for less than we bought him for mate. Or, at least, it'd be a deal which we would very easily be able to make up to that fee.
Maybe, but would those players come here? There's no way Rabiot comes now uncle Carlo has gone. We're just not an attractive proposition for these players.There must be some player swaps we could do with either Juve or PSG for kean.
