Could Kompany put the kibosh on this? certainly for this week because of his City connections?
From a pointless tweeterBeat me to it. Pointless tweet.
More productive than most of what’s going on hereI suppose my perspective is coloured by my Dutch accent and how I perceive English as a non-native speaker myself; but the Dutch 'w' I'm used to isn't represented very well on that wegpage Grande quotes, where I agree there is a sort of 'v' sound at the start of their pronunciation of e.g. 'woord'. Basically take away that 'v' sound (almost a breath) at the very start of the pronunciation, and you're much closer to how I would define Dutch 'w'. So maybe accents are getting in the way here, cause I'm from the south and pronunciations on that webpage sounds very western to me ('g' and 'r' are easy markers for that). Weghorst himself is from the east, so maybe someone from there would better be able to help; maybe @Stadjer (who is from the northeast I think).
One way or another though, while English 'v' might be a decent approximation here, probably somewhere halfway between 'v' and 'w' might work better.
And yes, this is an excellent use of everyone's time.
That’s Martial finished then

This deal is being done above him surely - especially as it doesn’t involve an active player of his squad. I’d imagine he’ll be mature enough to see the benefit for Burnley who should be his primary concern.Could Kompany put the kibosh on this? certainly for this week because of his City connections?
Quietly think he’s going to be an absolute stud for us. Won’t bang the goals in but contribute enough. Reckon he’s got something about him, grit, fight and he’l quickly become a bit of a favourite.
Yeah he's got a fighters mentality
The fact that he's desperate to join us and he's a workhorse will make him good enough. If he grabs a few important goals then he will be cult hero here.
To be fair to Ole, it’s been successive managers that haven’t dealt with certain players whilst buying “average” in ETHs own wordsThe failure is Oles. A more competent manager would not have left us in the hole.
We're in winter break!How about concentrate on your own team
I hope so, got lucky his only competition was a sulking manchild when he returned off his failed loan at Sevilla.That’s Martial finished then
€3m to the cnuts at Besiktas just to cancel the loan, according to Romano? Jesus C...
He will cry after scoring his first goal at OT. I guarantee you. He did after scoring his first international goal in a friendly against Montenegro or something.
I wish we were not so shit at the moment so I could take the piss. But we are so I won't.
For that price they had a free runYou have just got Felix over us though
Full of passion. It will be like having Martinez upfront
His on field mannerisms compared to Martial will make sure of that in no time. We all love to see someone giving their everything for the shirt

With the way our recent signings have gone, this Wout person will do better.
He might win the FA Cup for us in June!
I think Kompany is probably more professional than that. Especially if he wants to maintain good relations with United for future loanees going the other wayCould Kompany put the kibosh on this? certainly for this week because of his City connections?
Looks like we're getting the new van Nistelrooy.The fact that he's desperate to join us and he's a workhorse will make him good enough. If he grabs a few important goals then he will be cult hero here.
