His goal stats are great for a DM, but he takes pens, so that’s gonna be a massive drop off if he comes to us...
Disappointed to concede that second goal, mistake by the keeper. Ireland been strong enough in defence, though wish we could try and play it a bit. Its a friendly so we may as well give it a go

Kieran McKenna has been named first team head coach under Jose Mourinho and will be tasked with organising and running first team training.

What's Carrick doing then.
By domino Go To PostWho that.United's u-18 manager.

Did really well with them. Won the Northern League and got to the grand final where they lost to Chelsea.
By all accounts a good signing for Liverpool. Grats Pool bros.
Hope United can seal the Fred signing soon as well.

Woodward get the lead out and sign someone this week
How mad that an hour ago we were looking at the first speculation of this deal, wondering whether the clubs would agree a few and how interested the player would be, when in reality he probably did the photoshoot in kit this morning.
So weird for us to be this efficient in the market.

Klopp knows what he wants.
Fekir, Keita and Fabinho already. At least the bench will look tons better next season.

Surprised at how quick that was. Thought it was another Fekir things/agent briefing.
Bet we'll be playing 4231/424 a lot more next year.

By etc Go To PostWhat the fuckI remember there being no rumours of Meireles until he signed at like 11pm on a sunday night.
Fastest/most well concealed transfer we've ever made
By Feorax Go To PostHow mad that an hour ago we were looking at the first speculation of this deal, wondering whether the clubs would agree a few and how interested the player would be, when in reality he probably did the photoshoot in kit this morning.I would expect all this summers deal to be similar, just because of the combined WC + shorter window. Liverpool probably wanted to move particularly quickly in this case to help move on from the CL
So weird for us to be this efficient in the market.
By Dan Go To PostWhen will they sign a proper keeper though?
Our keepers were shit when we were winning everything.
Other than a period before Reina got smoke hands, we’ve never had good keepers.

I think you’ll see a lot of these surprise announcements this window. Nobody is really leaking because they can’t afford to be gazzumped before the WC.
Wow. Fair fucking play. Two midfielders coming that immediately improve their first team.
Meanwhile we’re being led up the garden path for Bale and trying to resign Fellaini.

I think football has changed a lot since then though.
Can’t remember the last side to the win the PL and have a dodgy keeper as number one choice.

Fred is done too.
By Bold 2 in One Go To PostThat's how you do your transfersIs it fuck.
Hats off
No plane tracking, no van following, no club photographer following the player on social media, no advertisements starring the player with questionable links to the new club, just a pussy ass announcement.

Yeah, I know that will have to change sooner rather than later. It’s just not something we’ve ever been good at.
Hopefully that changes this window.

Go all out for the Roma lad.
By inky Go To PostFred is done too.
I’ll believe it when i see it. We’re probably too busy getting the in house graphics team to make the words fred the red look cool

Florentino told us in private: "I can not fit the cups in the trophy room." His words made us laugh. We thought it was a joke. It was true, the 13 European Cups do not fit in Real Madrid’s trophy room. There’s no place for La Decimotercera in the trophy room.- ABC’s @tgm46
Real Madrid will have to make changes in the Santiago Bernabeu Museum to be able to place la Decimotercera. It just doesn't fit.
By Dan Go To PostI think football has changed a lot since then though.Joe Hart. Your team.

Where were all the ITKs on the Fabinho deal? Was there even a single rumour? Good business for Pool.
Really hope we have Jorginho wrapped up soon

Not even the club journalists had any idea he was a target until this evening.
By domino Go To PostWho that.Probably learning the ropes from Mou, McKenna, and Rapetti, while acting as the liaison between Mou and the players. He doesn't even have his coaching license yet.
What's Carrick doing then.
McKenna is a very highly regarded coach, which we headhunted from Tottenham after he did some excellent work with their u18 team. He got our under 18 team to the top of the Northern league table, although we lost against Chelsea (Southern League champions) in the final. Under him the under 18 team had a 3 goal average per game.
It's all very promising, because Mou has taken a page from Fergie's playbook and delegates training and some other matters to his assistant coaches. He still has the final say on which players to play and what strategy to use though. Basically the next best thing other than having him leave.
The thing about Mou is he always has excellent rapport with his coaching team. Not saying that there is no chance of a falling out, but the chances of that are a lot less considering McKenna is not a female first team doctor for United.
