But we'd be crazy to just pay whatever another team wants. Now that we have some dosh behind us, teams are going to rise their prices when we come calling. Should we just go apeshit and venture into RS levels of debt?

No but don't try and tell me that in all of world football we can't find one player to improve us that we can afford and wants to join us. They're out there.

FYI we just heard 3 mins ago that we have signed Bernard.

Signed (subject to a WP) not interested in. Not weighing up a bid. Shows you can’t really take the press as gospel as to the comings and goings of EFC.

Does he play centre back mate?

You're better than this my man.

I was in the past but last season has broke me in ways I still haven't recovered from properly.

It needs to be taken care of before the window shuts and he's running out of time to do it.

Well, maybe one of the thousands of scouts we employ should have...never mind.

Does the fact that you’re basing your fume on press reports, and yet we’ve signed someone with none of the press knowing, undermine your fume?

It's just more excuses.

Brands was brought in to deliver. That's why we paid PSV top money.

So far he's having mixed results and whatever the reasons for it has failed to bring in a centre back with time for them to play a part in preseason.

I'm so confused. Is the window still open?

Look, the guy wants to sign the RIGHT CB or two. If that means he has to go right up until the end of the window to do it, I trust his judgment. He's only gone through about 10 years of these windows, I think he knows a bit of what he's doing.

And we've been linked to a TON of CBs. Jullien, the maniac from Gremio, Rojo, Lindehof, Mina, Ben Gibson, Lascalles, Reece Oxford, the list goes on...
