I’ve yet to see a goal montage where the player was shit or the music was any good.

Gold standard is always the Tonev video reel before he joined.

Made him look like the Bulgarian Cruyff.

Think McGinn is rated in Scotland but pretty big step up now from SPL to even championship and plenty of players don't cut it.

I don't think we'll be signing anyone for 5m this summer.

Exactly.  As soon as the figure of £5 million is mentioned, people need to move on.

Is this money we have already spent? Or does this reduce the deficit?

A great price!
Come on, our fiscal fortitude with the want-aways on-loan has been top-notch, credit where it's due.

Looks like Elphick to Reading is highly likely.  Huth being linked incoming.  A 29 year old being replaced, potentially, by a 33 year old?  Will be ever learn?  Stoke City after Chester according to the Villa hating Evening Mule.

I can't see us selling Chester or Chester wanting to go.

Not to Stoke in any case!  Unless they off dumb money for him. 
On another note, I reckon we will sign Waghorn on a free from Ipswich Town.  No idea why.

Huth at 20 was slower than Terry last season but without the ability to read the game. I know he won the premier before his season off but still.......
