Denayer arrived late for his medical (around 25 minutes late) - Kone going through his now.

This is going to be very, very close.

Personal terms agreed apparently.

It's going to be Tight.

Except the striker version

Yep another gem rather than like for like

Sat here at the airport with @Bungle and @neil999 laughing at the heads falling off.

Lads, we've got this. Any signings land and you'll be the first to know.
Also, just fyi, Neil's mum's scotch eggs are boss.

Neil is nothing like I expected, quite tolerable really

 

[sageyefc]

Play the youth

 

[LouReedwalkonthewildside]

Actually a really quiet window.

 

[Chimpy Glassman]

When asked why he joined stoke...pretty sure he said smart people....something about squirt kids.
ket ed. Glad we swerved

This made me laugh hysterically.

Good post.

I think the vast majority of people accept that you passed on what you were told in good faith, but partly because you wanted to believe there were no limits, you lost sight of reality a bit.

No offence, but because of your background and undoubted success in business, you were also more open to the idea that money talks, but maybe forgot that :-

1. Money isn't the be all and end all, and footballers aren't totally driven by cash. Ten years ago that might have been different, but now throwing money at football clubs isn't a nigh on guarantee of success and
2. Most of our rivals have similar amounts to spend so the choice for players is much more than it was just a few years ago

Moshiri's Everton on the field plan was never going to happen overnight and Koeman's three year contract probably reflects the short to medium term plan for that.

The off field plan is likely to be a five year plus one as well, so some patience, and realism is required all round.

Nah. Money is defo the be all and end all. We just don't have enough still.

He's got his club now. Happy for the lad

That's or me, oh no...not my evil twin again!

 

[Toffeeslam]

He plays upfront

I meant as in another rough diamond

 

[Neiziro]

We might actually have a youth team that's capable of having a decent Championship season.

 

[RomanReigns]

that dominic lad could be our version of Kelechi Iheanacho

 

[Eggs]

Next Stones or Holgate hopefully

...he's a striker, though.
