Why does it bother you so much? If everyone wasn't constantly complaining about it, you'd be able to scroll past it in less than a second.
Because they amount to a significant proportion of transfer tweets! 1 such tweet in 10 transfer tweets is fine, not 4/5 in 10

Agreed.

They embellish stuff and have been known to in the past. If they posted a link to the original article as well, there wouldn't be a problem. Posting the tweet with no link to the original isn't acceptable and has been said in the OP for years.

They don't even check stuff before posting. I've noted on quite a few occasions over the past few weeks they've took a tweet the caf account has posted and quoted it verbatim minutes later when I've altered a few words from the original interview to fit it in the character limit.
I only post them when I've read the article they're quoting and most the time (not always) I've found they've copied the quote that what was wrote in the article. Unfair to ban them but I understand as sometimes they can take things out of context and spin it.

Why not just put Chuts on your ignore list if you don't want to see his tweets?

Newcastle reach €11m fee + 20% to resell agreement for PSG's Nsoki. Personal terms to be negociated.

Dominic Booth is getting serious hate on twitter after that comment, definitely at the end game now where fans are exploding.

Liverpool

Yesterday, they claimed to have bids accepted from Liverpool and United. But it's a choice between arsenal and Napoli now (no mention of the third club accepted, offers accepted keep going down). Ok.

Bale's family are not in favour of a move to China, despite the eye-watering sum that he would be paid, and they have asked the forward's representatives to look for alternatives in Europe before definitively saying yes to Jiangsu Suning's offer.
The 30-year-old has until July 31 to give an answer to the Chinese side, with his agent, Jonathan Barnett, having reached an agreement with the club's hierarchy last Friday.
Real Madrid are giving Bale the chance to decide his own future, and they would actually prefer that he joins a club in Europe so that they receive a transfer fee, rather than allow him to go to China for free.

Real Madrid wanted 15 million euros for Mayoral and that deterred sides from making offers....

If that's the case, then I hope we don't sign any of them.

I do worry about the fact that Ole feels we don't need a number 10, though. Either that, or the club are not paying up. We need more creativity added to our team!
So you want us to go into the season with a weak squad? Cause even though Maguire/Longstaff aren't everyone's cup of tea they'd improve us massively

I'd like to see which club is stupid enough to pay Bale's wages and also give Madrid a transfer fee..

Think i'd rather play Pogba as a 10 and get a more defensive midfielder personally. Cover for pogba is probably needed too even if he stay i suppose. I can reluctantly live with Mata and Lingard for another year. I'm ok with mata as cover for 10 in general actually, bigger fish to fry. Right winger is needed far more imo.
You'd have to be pretty optimistic to see us getting a cb, any kind of midfielder and winger at this point though.
