Crikey. Bit over the top.



It's genuine, I think. The next one says:

"Jedinak real man. Westwood shit sack."

@Dr_TonyXia what about the "real no9", Dr?

I think he's been fairly clear all along that another striker is on the list so I fully expect to see someone in.

Hope it's not the last deal...could do with another midfielder and maybe a RB. Great business to date though...
edit..unless he meant that will be the last deal we will do as it will be so late in the window.

He's added that there'll be an easier one before the number 9.

Easier one(s), so possibly more than one.

The name calling one's can't be real can they? If they are, he's probably using the same language as whoever tweeted him. That could get him into trouble very quickly.

If the number 9 is so difficult to get, it sounds out like it could be quite an ambitious one.

It's not real. But it is really amusing.

I'm loving the transfer stuff, this time of year at most clubs you get "well we're pretty happy but we'd like to get one or 2 more in if we can, we'll have to see" or similar.  Xia is just throwing it out there that we'll be getting 2-3 more and 1 is going to be a striker.  It's that refreshing transparency that I like.

It's not the best negotiating tactic though to announce a signing publicly before you've actually agreed it.  Whoever the club we're trying to get the striker from is will know he's in a weaker position having put the pressure on himself to come up with a striker.

By not naming players, a selling club will not know if their player is the only one being considered. Announcing intention or not puts a selling club in the same position.
