No one talks about high ceilings any more, us cool kids sit at the back of the bus discussing xG these days.

Think Klopp is pretty keen on Solanke

Pickford hates ceilings.

His missus had to lift him on her shoulders so he could put the star on the christmas tree

i see no reason selling Origi and keeping Solanke. it should be the other way around. 

I don't think either of them are good enough, but the club values origi close to 30m, so you have your answer right there why we'd sell him before solanke.

Hope Divock is printing this one off to pin on the dressing room wall in Burnley tomorrow.

He can print it off. It won't make him better at football though!

Just think of him like one of the biffs the mancs have had winning matches for them for no apparent reason over the years like macheda or owen

Give Arsenal what they want for Ramsey in January. Just finished watching the replay of MOTD2, he is exactly the player we need in the middle.

[Lee909]

Depends on the fee and who your going to fuck off. Personally I'd happy let Hendo, Lallana go. I'd let Milner go in the summer too unless he accepts being a squad player. He's still got a few years left but his wages are well above squad players standards and we need more pace and power and can only have so many players. Hopefully Chamberlain is back for next year too

 

Also doesn't Ramsey want the best part of 250k a week.

He is a very good player, he ran the show for Arsenal. Without him in that team, Arsenal I'm sure would have struggled against Spurs. Although possibly Ozil could have had a similar impact.

 

I have a funny feeling they could still offer him a new contract but otherwise he would do very well here.

[Bjornebye]

I'd love Ramsey here.

Only they'll want nearly twice the fee for Sancho

Harry Wilson is likely to take one of those "squad player" spots too.

Over 300k has been reported and why arsenal broke off negotiations. He's a 100k a week player even in the mad market we have today, although he can clearly add to that on a bosman.

A few reports today saying we are interested in Bristol city's 20 year old left back Lloyd Kelly. He's captain of England's under 20s team.

I've read that people who watch them say he's a stud and young English players are the best investment in World Football right now. Hope this is true. 

[TheHowieLama]

Have him give a fella called Alexander-Arnold a ring -- he is 20 as well and has been playing for Liverpool for two years on the trot. He plays for England too.

Did you just refer to a footballer as a stud? 

 

Are you a Belieber as well?
