Can’t see why you are all keeping the point with Smalldini at Roma here, making a very minor transaction much bigger than it is? €5m less are not going to change your finances for sure, and you had madman Conte from pennypinchers country wiping so much of your deadwood in recent times already. #FreeChris , let him enjoy the Colosseo, the sun and pizzas over here. :wenger:
Of course you’re a Juve fan. Your club is worse than Roma.

I'm finding the outrage over Smalling's potential fee to Roma odd as well. Surely shifting deadwood and slashing the wage bill is more important than making an extra £10million from a sale?
Not when our current incomings are seemingly based on how much money we can make off said dead wood

Cue all our fans thinking he’s talking about Woodward (with zero indication that’s the case - it’s clearly the Juve guy).

That fee for Smalling is getting lower every time it's reported. By this time next week, we're going to be paying them.

£20m or keep him. We could use him in the squad more than 9 or 10m Euros. That kind of money doesn't even buy you a good Championship player now.
Aye, it barely buys you a shitty championship player either, in fairness

Seems a bit disingenuous to leave this bit out, he was obviously referencing Juventus, not United.
Juventus have one of the highest wage bills so I can see why they would struggle. We just got rid of £55m Sanchez of our wage bill.

PLus they have also added Suarez to the wage bill, pretty sure he wont be cheap.

If Roma aren't going to make a serious offer Smalling should be told he is playing for United this season.

We should not be giving away a good player cheaply

Monchi: "Reguilón is a player that I would love to have here but it is very complicated because there are very strong rivals economically. We are in a time of crisis that affects everyone. Sevilla too. Let's keep our feet on the ground a bit"

I guess Smalling really enjoyed his time in Rome. I am sure there would be at least 2 or 3 PL clubs who would be interested in bringing him for around £20. But when you weigh the prospect of playing for Newcastle and fight for relegation vs playing for Roma and living in Rome - kind of understand him.
Can't think of many better places to live than Rome.

No although you inadvertently gave me the answer! Sliver had Sharon Stone in it but I didn’t know that the star of the movie I’m taking about, channel 5 starlet Shannon Whirry, was also in briefly in that movie! Weird coincidence! So I found her name when I saw it on IMDb

The movie is called Animal Instincts 2. I’ve never seen the original so maybe that’ll be tonight’s viewing......

Galbraith seems quite popular within the club, I have a sneaky suspicion we'll be seeing him more regularly than expected in the upcoming season. I think he and Mengi will be the academy lads we're looking at promoting. It also says Laird's attracting interest which leans into the theory we'll stick Williams as back up right back if we sign someone like Regulion.
