Jesus I thought we were badly run, you couldn't make it up, they need a striker but paid of Saurez's contract to let him leave for free who then joined Barca Rivals Atletico who are top of La Liga and on course to win the title and Saurez has contributed 9 goals so far one being a late winner in there last game !
Couldn't happen to a better club tbhNo. We should not purchase any 48 year old players on astronomical wages, never

Its almost like they overplayed their hand and fecked it up.
"Race on again"
Moving Suarez must have been a political thing to piss off Messi.Jesus I thought we were badly run, you couldn't make it up, they need a striker but paid of Saurez's contract to let him leave for free who then joined Barca Rivals Atletico who are top of La Liga and on course to win the title and Saurez has contributed 9 goals so far one being a late winner in there last game !
I dont want him. Break the bank to get either Haland or Grealish.
Grealish yes, Haaland can drop Raiola before we even consider a move
thats exactly what they did. Now they are trying to make it sound like their is a race for his signature when the truth is no club is going to pay 120M for him or anything even close to that .
They'll be lucky to get £80m for him next summer. Still no fans in stadiums, most clubs still losing money, transfer fees seem to be stabilising on the whole due to covid and sensible business.
I think most, myself included, were more concerned that we would miss out on the free-run we had on him in the last window and that many more clubs would be interested next summer.
Some were, but not too many. A few clueless people saying he'd cost 150m now
. Most people with sense knew with the Covid cloud still hanging over the sport, perhaps a change of his form, and his contract being that one year shorter 2020 was the summer for them to rinse the most out of him, and they blew it.Yeah it was never going to be more expensive than it was in 2020. They tried taking us to the cleaners and it’s backfired.Some were, but not too many. A few clueless people saying he'd cost 150m now
The point about us having more competition after that window was valid, and a bigger concern of mine, still is.
Pretty much 70% of that thread were saying it's now or never and that he'd cost more and be off to a rival. But I, along with a few others, put out a rational and logical case that this wouldn't be the case though it was seemingly ignored for the most part.Some were, but not too many.

If you can choose just two of the following three players - who would it be?
Sancho and Haaland.
Sancho, Grealish and Haaland. Do it.
Sancho and Grealish can create goals for fun and dominate the game with ease. Greenwood and Martial can be our striker.
Yeah think he overreached last summer and I think he let his relative success go to his head I said it last year as soon as "Here we go" started becoming a thing that his reliability would probably take a hit.
United aren’t spending 250m man
Sancho and Haaland. Grealish plays 10 or LW and everything goes through him. Whilst I think he'd be good on the right, I think you'd be limiting him a bit and we've already seen what Sancho can do on the right when in form.

Fire up the Muppetlorean!
I for one am really, really enjoying Barcelona's current woes. All we need to do now is reassert ourselves on the world footballing stage while stepping on Liverpool and City and all will be well with the world!
Surprised by that. I can see Rojo and maybe Jones leaving - so maybe a "squad" player as a back up perhaps. I can see Ole keeping faith in Maguire/Lindelof/Tuanzebe/Bailly (especially if the latter can remain fit). I can't see us signing a starter.
If you look at everyone we're being linked to - Caicedo, Medina, young Austro-Turkish lad, I think Ole will keep his faith in the team he has and add talented players to push them on/replace them if they don't put the effort in. It's quite refreshing compared to our usual tactic and it helps we're playing well in being able to do so.
What makes you think he has any faith in Tuanzebe? He played really good against Neymar and Mbappe and then was never picked again, and it's not like he was injured a lot of the time?
Prat wants his January clicks. Cant wait until Jan 31st, after 45 random updates about 1 transfer, he says the Equadorian kid is who he meant.

He was class in the Prem last season, shocking that he didn't get a move

Certain we will only bring in a CB if there were genuine concerns about Lindelof breaking down with this back problem

You love to see it.
I think if we race for anyone, should be for Haaland. Sancho for figures over 60 million is a very dodgy deal. He sure is amazing, but when he's on a rut, he's all the way.
