Reina..Jesus.

Surely Nyland is not THAT bad.

I’d say a good signing and gives us two decent keepers contesting the spot. Rather this than the status quo or spending unnecessary money on a better keeper with a long contract. Gives us more money for a forward

Steer will be back in a week or two, and we've recalled Sarkic. Including Kalinic, if we sign Reina, that's 6 keepers, only one of whom is injured long term...

Maybe Steer is not looking likely within the next couple of months 🤷‍♂️

Kalanic is probably off

Benteke and Bowen with a loan of Murray would keep us up I reckon.
I'd take that.
I’d love this to be honest. I also think Pepe could be really good bit of business if true.
He’d command respect, authority and give the team a bit of experience.

I've seen us linked with Rudy Gestede today.

Might as well just relegate us now if that's the case.

In these days of Facebook, Twitter and forums the football rumours are far more bonkers than the days of the 0800 call centres. I wouldn’t worry too much about the Rudy rumour!

I really hope that is fiction! Gestede was pretty useless during his last stint at Villa Park. Although he scored a great header to defeat the Noses in the League Cup tie at VP; I think Amavi put in a great cross from the left?

Trumps almost started WW3 via twitter and is still going strong, what on earth did you do to warrant a ban?

It's a fake account with 5 followers and 3 tweets.  Yet 32 bellends have retweeted it.

Toothless up front so far. And I wish at least ONE of Hauses passes would reach a player in claret and blue?!

We need about 6 players.
