[dholliday]

Last week he used one of Chicos fake stories as ITK insider info, was hilarious, .

where's the great man posting now these days?

 

[Neiler]

Hopefully its Grob one of the top midfielders in the league.

 

[Sir Alan]

CM is vital.

Who we thinking lads?

 

[BlueToff]

Not really keen on giving new contracts out to players who still have 4 years on their current one

It's called protecting your assets.

 

[Nymzee]

Just looked this thing up. There's a 15 day free trial going on right now enough to get our amateur scouts through the rest of the window.

@Nymzee @Zatara @MarcelsGoat

Brands needs you! Will you answer the call?

My scouting needs no outside sources

No it’s called being daft, the new contract will add one year onto his current one and we will be paying him double in wages. And what will it solve nothing because if a bigger clubs comes in for him and he rocks the boat he’s gone anyway.

Seemingly only twitter but its great stuff lol

After scoring two goals today, Club Brugge's Wesley has told Belgian media that he will not be leaving the club to join either Everton or Lazio. [Voetbalrant]

I don't like the CBs splitting. It means that the CBs are having to go wide and that's when they lose their positioning.

The best way to do it is, imo, have Gana as the 'screener' in front of the back four.

I use that term because I think that best describes what Gana is best at. He has the physical ability and stamina to cover every inch of the pitch in a horizontal line in front of the defence. Obviously, not all on his own, but if a full-back presses high, then I would trust Gana to be able to get across and cover that position.

He is wasted playing as a box-to-box. Schneiderlin is offering nothing.

You don't want to watch Hamburg play then Christ - saw a replay of them yesterday vs Monaco and their GK plays like near the centre circle haha.

Edit: Here's the game to show. I would shat myself watching that every week

For a bigger fee though.

I can’t see how there would be a difference in the fee we ask if someone has a 4 year or 5 year deal, I’d agree if he was down to 2 maybe 3 at a stretch.

Could someone post the entire Joyce article? Any tidbits about signings?

It is not 'being daft'.

Those good performances in the World Cup guaranteed him a new deal would be offered at some point. It had to. We had to.

It ends any 'rumours' of him going. We may even put a minimum release clause in.

You pay more for a player on say £100k pw than one on £60k pw I would imagine. Reflects the cost the selling club has to pay to replace him.
