Get it done!
Have we signed England's reserve yet?
What does this even mean?
Not yet, but I hear a new contract is being prepared for Phil Jones as our key signing this summer.
Don’t disagree with anything you’ve said
This has just been released
you should spoiler this. I've just had a terrible fright opening the thread and seeing this ghoulish apparition.Most unfair. Mods @Pexbo

Nice to see he can keep a clean sheet.
Happy page 100.
On which page will we announce Sancho?

Did Sancho came to Carrington naked?This has just been released
We don't know how well Rashford or Greenwood, even Martial would do in the Bundesliga. Sancho didn't even make the bench for England today.
Good signing but let's not act like it's Messi.
I think all those three would do incredibly well. Especially the first two.
To be fair @K Stand Knut was hustled into posting those links, initially he just mentioned that he saw images floating around which he also correctly called "graphics"
Just out of interest Sancho has been better statistically in the Bundesliga than KDB was.
That's insane
Are you seriously comparing a guy over 30 with 100 caps and a World Cup winners medal with a 21 year old who can’t even make the bench against Croatia? And who said Kroos won’t start? He’s going to start. Not sure what you’re talking about here.
Agreed. I'm all for signing him but I don't think he takes our first XI up a level like a better CM and CB would.

Fair enough. Was KDB playing for as dominant a side as Dortmund with a striker as good as Haaland?
According to CIES all of Kane, Rashford, Sterling, Sancho, Greenwood, Foden and maybe Mount(?) are £100m+ players. Three of those were either on the bench, not in the matchday squad or, as with Greenwood, touch and go if he was gonna be included in the tournament squad at all. Then you add another bench player in Grealish who you could argue is up there with the rest of them in terms of talent and value. Instead of saying stupid stuff like "you can't be a £100m player if you're not playing for your NT", maybe the focus should be on England having abundance of riches when it comes to highly talented attacking talent in the perfect age value-wise.
Pretty certain Sancho’s stats were better pre-Haaland in fairness.
Also sure Wolfsburg finished 2nd in KDB’s first and only full season so…. Erm, yes, more dominant.
Steven Howsen on Stretford Paddock saying AS are reporting United have accepted Dortmund's terms and a deal will be announced within a number of hours.
Sancho was putting up the same numbers before Halaand but I'll take your other point that KDB played for a slightly worse team.
Well, he's a pretty good player.
Not sure how exactly that comparison works, seeing that De Bryune's time in Bundesliga was in two different spells for two very different teams. De Bruyne's full season at Wolfburg was something else in terms of how impressive and influential he was, (well, you know how De Bruyne is at his best, and he was also older than Sancho is), and apart from @Zehner few people would see Sancho's contributions so far quite as high.
But yeah, Sancho has delivered astonishingly and there's surely more to come.
He delivered the same numbers even before Haaland joined Dortmund.
Which one of Rashford and Greenwood are you dropping from our best XI for him then?
Think that's meant for another thread
Page 120 for 100M fee + 20M in bonuses.
That wasn’t what you asked.
Well I just did.
Would be weird for this news to break from Spain.
I just did it on minutes per goal/assist mate. Sancho has two seasons at 82 minutes per goal and assist
In KDBs insnae season where he got like 44 G+A it was in much more minutes so still only worked out at 103 minutes per goal.
On form should be Rashford. And with him likely getting surgery after the Euros thats how the season will likely start.
