Deepthroating information to Howard Nurse.
I’d prefer that at this stage tbh. At least Di Maria actually joined!
We’ve had the Fabregas/Sancho/Ramos sagas of chase all summer and they stay. Di Maria saga of chase all summer, they get forcibly sold and flop. Have we ever had a chase all summer, player does leave but goes elsewhere saga? This one could be a novelty :drool: :(

You don’t honestly believe that?!!
Honestly? I don't know.

Do I think FDJ will join? Probably not. Do I think we have an alternative? Definitely no.

Do I think we'll sign an attacker? Probably no to that either

Pretty sure this will be wrapped up either way before then. I don't think Barca will want it to drag out until the last moment for them to register players... Unless of course they activate another lever, then who the hell knows
Yeah, they are going to want Bernardo in and registered before the league starts.

That's do pessimistic that you now only have half a glass.

I’m not so sure city give a crap either way. They’ve done there business to cover for him, so if he goes it’s no problem and if he stays it’s a Bernardo bonus!
Suppose so, at the end of the day it'd be a bit of extra income for them if he goes, regardless of when that is, and if he doesn't, he can still be used

Just been listening to Athletic podcast and Mitten said a month ago the answer was FDJ was option a, b and c. Now he’s being told there is a list of plan B’s. I believe we will sign a midfielder.
I think Ronnie is so desperate to leave he will engineer a move too, so we HAVE to sign a forward, especially with Martial injured.
Hey, Cavani is still available! :wenger:

I do think we have at least one more signing in us. De Jong will not be it though. My money is on that tall young striker and thats our business done most likely.

I would say there’s a higher chance of us signing an alternative than FDJ himself. I’d be shocked if the board let ETH go into the season with no central midfielders brought in especially when we’ve lost Matic and Pogba.
