Few rumours of Bastoni floating about. Not the best sources though. 

 

Yesterday his agent was saying he was on the verge of signing a new deal. Sounds like a agent get the deal agreed shout if anything

Maddison to Spurs is laughable. A Spurs quality player to Spurs, is very, erm...  Spurs.

 

I don't get all the sneering at Maddison all his 'numbers' are good and he'll IMO be a very decent signing for them.

He's fine, but it's a very "we're hoping to finish 5th/6th" signing. If City signed him and he was going to be a solid backup, it'd probably help them win the league, but as a first choice, he's pretty meh.

You need more legs to play an attacking role. Moving players deeper as they get older and slower is pretty standard. 


I agree with you in theory but that really only works if the player is good enough at reading the game tactically. It's among the reasons why players like Pirlo and Xabi never needed to be particularly quick (although Xabi massively benefited from Masch playing alongside him during a big chunk of his time here). Hendo's got a tendency to lose track of players as was mentioned, of course as 6 he might be aware that tackling and tracking are more of his job in that position as there isn't a midfielder behind him and adjust but it's not a foregone conclusion that it'll work.

Is it true some cunt has left Neymar 200 million quid in their will. 

Haha fucking hell, even the concept of it is genuinely amazing. I am struggling to think of many genuinely worse ways to pass on inheritance. Tory/UKIP donation? Equipping every woman in the country with a bollock smashing device?

I don't think there will be anymore midfield signings. Jurgen hates having players sitting around not in the team and having replaced the injury prone guys with hopefully more robust ( and better ) players this would be the case to my mind. In a Europa League season the following should be more than enough.

 

Mac     Allister

Szoboszlai

Fabinho

Henderson

Thiago

Jones

Bacjetic

Elliott

Trent floating in an out.

 

If we are looking for more players I would rather see another promising young centre back who can cover one of or both full back positions.

Sorry for doubting you mate. I'm not on Twitter and hadn't seen any of your gold posts in the members forum. 

 

Keep up the good work.
