By Shatner's Bassoon Go To PostHerrera wouldn't make the England squad.
might scrape into the U21s if he's lucky
Forster-Caskey and his left peg laser just too much
Reports that Jordy Clasie will join up with his old manager Koeman at Southampton. Could be a very good signing
By FlutterPuffs Go To PostMan, I don't know how I feel if Pogba goes to Barca. It's better than Real but still…
Marotta genuinely never lies. He said he wont move to Madrid
so that leaves Barca innit
and Braida's weekly hints are so obvious

He gets linked to PL clubs every year. Think if he was good enough, he'd be here already.
By #rvy34 Go To PostWhat a disgrace if Jesus leaves for some Italian shit club like Milan or Sampdoria,We need to Jesus in the PL so he can banter Tactics Tim off on a more regular basis.
By Laboured Go To PostWe need to Jesus in the PL so he can banter Tactics Tim off on a more regular basis.No decent clubs available. United have Gaal, Chelski have Mou.
Well, I guess there's Arsenal, Citeh and 'Pool. They'll all start whining about 'who's this Portugueezer' if talks even begin though.
By Hitch Go To PostI thought Clasie was supposed to be the Dutch Cleverley?
Clasie is uglier, possibly shorter, and thinks he's hard.
Edit: Aye, Clasie looks like he has only ever ingested growth hormones and twizzlers. Face of a dislikable pre-teen.
Worth a punt, though. 18m Euro is it ?
how do mou and jesus get along?
the banter could be amazing
and clasie really impressed me at the world cup. i dont think hes a celeverly. but i dont see him every week so what do i know

Michael Calvin's Top 5 Flops of the season. Picked out some choice quotes for each. Hard to disagree with any of them. Full article: http://sport.bt.com/sport-football/columnists/the-top-five-worst-signings-of-the-season-S11363982884218
Brown Ideye (West Bromwich Albion)
Emanuel Rivière (Newcastle United)
Radamel Falcao (Manchester United)
Eliaquim Mangala (Manchester City)
Mario Balotelli (Liverpool)
Could add Loven, Cuadardo, Rodwell, Lallana (tad harsh), Di Maria (terms of cost) for a top 10. Enner Valencia only has 4 in 30 and for his price in with a shout.
Brown Ideye (West Bromwich Albion)
Whenever anyone doubts the damage done by mediocre foreign imports, just mention West Bromwich Albion’s record signing, who somehow cost £10m from Dynamo Kiev. Brown tries hard, but would struggle in the Championship
Emanuel Rivière (Newcastle United)
In years to come, I’ll be able to say I was there. I saw Riviere score his only Premier League goal in 23 appearances, a shot which cannoned in off his standing leg. It was against QPR, which probably shouldn’t count, and was followed by a celebratory somersault
Radamel Falcao (Manchester United)
Falcao’s four Premier League goals cost Manchester United £3.95m apiece. Each appearance involved an outlay of £607,000 and every one of his 37 shots on goal during his solitary season at Old Trafford cost £427,027
Eliaquim Mangala (Manchester City)
a £42m transfer from Porto which symbolises City’s haphazard approach to team building
has lost confidence in a defence contaminated by the sudden decline of Vincent Kompany
Mario Balotelli (Liverpool)
Brendan Rodgers infamously spent three and a half hours in his office with Balotelli, explaining what he required of him. It was a waste of breath and £16m
Could add Loven, Cuadardo, Rodwell, Lallana (tad harsh), Di Maria (terms of cost) for a top 10. Enner Valencia only has 4 in 30 and for his price in with a shout.
3 and a half hours being lectured by Brentan. Christ alive. I'd be taking runups and methodically ramming my head against the wall: concussion, death, escape. Equally palatable.
Riviere is monstrously shite. Falcao - and I'm not trying to lift him out of this list, because he definitely does belong in it - has held the ball up on occasion and battled for it with some commitment and intelligence. And then fallen over. And got up. And slipped back down again.
The gap between what we wanted and what we got is astonishing. Ditto Di Maria.

I signed Riviere on FM for Newcastle once on a free transfer. He was shit. Luckily, I sold him on 6 months later and made a profit.
By Scabro Go To Posthow do mou and jesus get along?Mou mocks Jesus in public because of his poor Portuguese. Jesus says they have a good relationship in private.
the banter could be amazing
and clasie really impressed me at the world cup. i dont think hes a celeverly. but i dont see him every week so what do i know
Mou is also a cunt, so he's probably lying,
Galliani meeting with Atletico for realz now. The media says they'll talk about Mario Suarez and Mandzukic, I think they'll talk about Cerci and Torres.
By #rvy34 Go To PostWhat a disgrace if Jesus leaves for some Italian shit club like Milan or Sampdoria,
It would be a decent step up for him before going to a big club.

Both Mangala and Di Maria had shite seasons but they have better in them for sure.
Imagine Kompany had been bought for the same amount. Bonkers. City just had a 'mare defensively this season, which ultimately costed them a proper shot at the title, instead of the just a top 2 place (forth in a row?).

Benzema rumors coming up. Is it true that Real want to make Ronaldo their No. 9 for next season. I'm seeing comments of the like on twitter but no idea how true it is. Also something about a Real bid for Aguero.

I like his point. People are fucking dumb when it comes to animals. How right or wrong it is to kill something, for most people completely depends on the cuteness factor.

https://www.vice.com/read/the-malaysian-nazis-fighting-for-a-pure-race
Turns out they're a group of far-right nationalists who want to rid Malaysia of any nonethnic Malays and stop immigration into the country. Which, although pretty backwards and reductive, isn't all that surprising in the current world climate. What was surprising, and kind of confusing, is that they identify themselves as neo-Nazis, are fond of sieg-heiling, and listen to Nazi bands like Skrewdriver and Angry Aryan, yet definitely aren't Aryan themselves.

By confuziz Go To PostJordy Clasie is awful. A poor man's Sneijder (Sneijder is even better at this age).ssshhhh I want that 18m
By OddMorsel Go To PostYeah Barry Glendenning was on FW saying that a relative of Sterling's claims he wants to go to Arsenal. I'd be really disappointed in our club if we sold him to Arsenal. Pretty much the only PL club I'd be okay with is Man City.I mean I understand why Arsenal is attractive to him. London and we look like we're making progress and only need a few pieces to make it to the top. He probably feels he can be one of those. I still maintain if we can keep our core of 8 players (that includes any new additions better than what we currently have) fit for a whole season we will win the league. Chelsea had 11 players who played 25+ games this season. We had like 5 maybe.
Re: Benteke I'm mostly referring to the fact that almost all his goals are headers and his passing rate is sub70%. Jack Grealish is a hell of a player who we should be pulling all the stops out to sign. He could replace Sterling.
By Fabian Go To Postssshhhh I want that 18m
Disregard everything I just said. Clasie is the GOAT.

Any sub-top team can win the league if all the pieces fall into place at the right moments. But how often does that actually happen? It happened with Atletico last season, but that's an extreme rarity.
By FlutterPuffs Go To PostI love me some transfer speculations.
What will be this year Vidal to Manchester United?
I heard Altidore is available. Might be something for Sunderland.
I really hate transfer season tbh, not least because Liverpool never have good summer transfer windows, but also because I just hate the constant deluge of repetitive rumors and the "we're signing him, no we aren't, yes we are," etc.
I just can't wait for the next league season to start.

Anyway, I just realised how perfect it would be if Klopp goes to Southampton. Won't happen, but he would probably be amazing there.

Might as well be a #9. Natural progression for Cristina innit. That's another reason why Rafa is been called upon.
