Deadline Day

I love that we are so content and need nothing having done all business before season started. Can just sit back relax and watch the scramble
 
Pau Lopez to Tottenham. Why? Lloris, Vorm? Make less sense

One for future probably - e.g. so that we might have the option of selling Vorm for a bit of cash next summer perhaps.
 
Wouldn't start him there over Lamela, either.
 
Well sure, but often loan deals become permanent signings.
I think it's probably more to do with Lloris still being injured. They probably want a quality option off the bench. If he gets games and proves himself he might replace Vorm next year.
 
What position would you say that is called?

Depends on the player - sometimes it's called a winger, or if not a right-sided attacking player.

Either way it's not a CM position. And thus, since the original reference was clearly to Pogba, Sissoko wouldn't be competing with Dembele for a CM slot.
 
Funny watching clubs panic on deadline day. £30 million for Sissoko! :lol::lol: The guy's been trash for years at Newcastle and has had a stinking attitude.

Perhaps, but Poch said a few days ago that Lloris was close to returning to training - and now we have the international break, so I wouldn't think his injury is a concern.

Poch knows Lopez from his days at Espanol, so yes, a Vorm replacement option for next summer - or even as a safeguard against Lloris leaving at some point.
 
The local Newcastle press has him as having discussions with Everton.

Edit: This guy is the Sports Editor for the local Newcastle rag and is as well informed as anyone about nufc. He says Spurs have bid again: https://mobile.twitter.com/lee_ryder?lang=en-gb

I hope Everton get him and that the Spurs' links just media guff. I don't want him - especially not for £30m.
 
Loving us not being involved. 2013, Fellaini, fake lawyers for Herrera, last minute loan deals for Fábio Coentrão... still get flashbacks whenever I see a bloke in a yellow tie.

Also, forgot that the dippers paid £16m for Balotelli!
 
These two posts sum up Glaston perfectly.

On the contrary, it sums up the determination of some posters to weigh in with an attack regardless of what I post. And if they have to scratch around pedantically to do it, they will.

As I've said, where Sissoko would be deployed is sometimes a position that's called a winger, or if not a right-sided attacking player.

Either way it's not a CM position. And thus, since the original reference was clearly to Pogba, Sissoko wouldn't be competing with Dembele for a CM slot.
 
Moyes has failed to get Ruddy and Naismith, c'mon Dave put in a £35m panic bid for Fellaini.

And just gave him away. Liverpool got a bargain there. I seriously thought they would have to pay someone to take him.
 
I love how everyone making deals seems hell bent on making our Pogba look like a bargain. Some of the sums for some of the level of players being transfered, madness.

They're probably subsiding a good portion of his wages, no way can Nice afford him without completely vaporizing their wage structure.
