Deadline Day

I find it to be an odd transfer for Leicester when they have Vardy, Okazaki and Ulloa. They need a new RB IMO.

Okazaki and Ulloa are pretty shit in fairness, both over performed last season and neither can hit a barn door really.

Ulloa was expected to leave today. He's certainly down the pecking order now.
 
Sissoko, £30m to Tottenham :lol:

Pogba looks cheaper and cheaper by the day.

 
Five Live reporting Spurs have matched Everton's £30m bid for Sissoko and player wants to go to them.

The worlds gone mad if Sissoko is worth 30 million. Plays well in the Euro's & suddenly he is a world beater. When are people going to realise that just because people play well in international football, they wont automatically be great club footballers, as the standard of the latter is so much higher.
 
I'd say thank you Spurs for taking Sissoko but with so little time to find a replacement it is really disappointing. Hopefully we can put ourselves in a good position til January.
 
Sissoko to Spurs is probably the worst deal of the entire window.

I wouldnt sign him for 30p nevermind 30 million
 
In my opinion, the Sissoko transfer will be just as bad as the Carroll one for Pool. 2 or 3 games in a season where he's unplayable and the rest of the time muck.

If one of those few games is against Everton it could be quite fun.
 
I'm surpised Hull haven't bought a few today, they are really struggling with putting a squad of 18 out for their matches.
 
Seems a really quiet deadline day. Granted I'm only checking on my phone instead of watching but it seems there are only a couple of clubs still actively looking.

3 yesterday and 1 today though.
 
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.
I'd agree with this, I've never really seen why so many act such a cnut to you to honest. I don't see it warranted.
 
Feels different as a United fan. Not panicking, no Fellainis signed. All is well.
 
Newcastle will be laughing all the way to the bank.... £30m for a very average player!!

They will need to thank Everton for duping Levy to pay the fee!
 
Newcastle must be well chuffed. A combined £57m for Wijnaldaum and Sissoko.
 
The real question is, where is Adebayor going?
 
The deliberate obtuseness in the attacking posts come from the fact that the post I originally replied to was clearly referencing Pogba, who plays in central midfield. Thus I said that Sissoko wouldn't be competing for a midfield slot, since Dembele or Alli both play in central midfield.

Then in comes all this deliberate obtuseness, demanding to know where Sissoko plays, when such posters know - or should know if they bothered to read back through the thread before weighing in - that it was about Pogba/Dembele/Alli. And then further deliberate obtuseness comes because when most people speak of midfielders, they usually mean CMs or central AMs (and not wingers or right-sided attackers) - e.g. as in a midfield three playing behind a front three.

You're right it is tedious and it is ridiculous - but these are the chosen lengths that some posters go to attack almost anything I post.
If you want to believe that the reason you are constantly in these arguments more than most posters isn't largely because of your posting style then go ahead.

Did you disagree with anything I said in my post about the real source of the deliberate obtuseness? If so, what?

Or otherwise you might find the grace to admit that what I said is true.

You said he wouldn't play in midfield. He would. I dont want to get dragged into another tedious debate about what other people have said to you.

Grace? :lol:

I've already shown why it was deliberately obtuse. And yes, grace, a word you'd do well to ponder.
