Selling one of Messi's best friends off the pitch at a time when he's at an all time unhappy.. I'm obviously just guessing but that doesn't sound like he'll be happy about
How the feck can Ajax afford that contract? Also, is Bartomeu playing Football Manager or something?
That's roughly what they paid for him. They might as well try to get their money back.
Jeez that outgoings list seems to decrease by the minute,makes you wonder if anyone else is actually leaving after Sanchez
You can. As long as its not a serious one.
Pedro just joined Roma and hes out until September.
Crocks are let go and signed all the time
We haven’t even been reliably linked to anyone in about 2 weeks now.
Do something
Do something
Are there any other good young Barca players we could try and pick up on the cheap while they are clearing the decks? Dembele gets another season. That’s fair enough. I wouldn’t have let him go on loan next season either.
Something about Messi -- he's 30 something goals from Pele's record of most goals for a single club. I reckon he'd quite like that honour.
Yeah you suspect he'll only move to a giggles league for a year or so right at the end.
No way does he risk having to prove himself at another top club now. It'd have only risk attached.
hmmm we are a bit late to the party
City clearly going all out for the title and more. Kouillbally + Laporte puts them in with a real chance of taking the title back from the dippers.
We are playing for 3rd with Chelsea again I reckon. Not a cat in hells chance we are getting close to the top 2 again.
I don’t think that was ever a real possibility.
Yeah neither did I.
Koulibaly has fallen off a cliff though. Its 2 years too late
It’s a risk. Koulibaly is getting on, hasn’t been good this season and that’s a lot of money.
If we manage to get the third spot next season I’d consider our season a success. It takes time to build a winning team and given the current economic crisis it might take us an extra year before we seriously should see ourselves as a title contender. So far I am happy with the strategy of taking small steps towards the top
Ed Woodward is the Howard Nurse of transfer negotiations.
Unless he means that we just contacted agents and stopped there because we weren't interested, that means we were late, surely.
I think we just want to be kept informed of developments in case we decide to make a move. Seems Arsenal and Napoli are far more interested at the moment.
Still early in the window right? I thought signings were only needed to be made during final weeks.
It doesn’t put the club in a favourable light to the player does it? ‘Keep us informed just in case our number one target doesn’t sign for us’. It’s why we have missed out on so many players when our first target doesn’t sign.
Would be interesting as a bench option but he's basically a slightly better version of James (and equally Welsh).
Looks like Chelsea are now actively negotiating again with Leverkusen for Havertz.
Described in the article as an alternative to Sancho. I think there’s a colossal difference in quality between the two players. Ones world class at 20, the others just got relegated to the Championship.
better than starting from zero when the number one target doesn't work out.

Fair play Chelsea. We can just watch in awe...
Sancho to Brooks would be shockingly underwhelming.
Us, no. Chelsea i wouldn't dismiss, depending on who they buy. They seem more active and busy. They might close the gap quite a bit
Ah fair enough then. Never expected Watford to have spent that much on a player.
Would be very happy with Brooks, though I'd hope he'd be more of a Lingard/Pereira replacement to improve the quality of the squad depth rather than a Sancho/A.N.Other starting RW alternative.
Yeah if that is indeed the case then would be a serious drop in class
