I’m still annoyed we never signed Haim Revivo all those years ago.

Just reading the label on an old tin and it specifically says not to use on your Haim.

Loan Rashica in, give him a 7 month trial in order to impress us.

that’s a great idea, I hope our recruitment team are as savvy and not too hungover from yesterday.

Rashica won’t happen tomorrow

Any evidence for this? Because my tea leaves beg to differ.

Tell me about it. I still follow Celta because of him and what he did to us.

Apparently Rashica has signed for Leverkusen for 18m.

The deal's apparently fallen through - ran out of time - German efficiency eh!

Rashica's move to Leverkusen failed because Bayer and Werder had different views on the option to buy clause in the deal. Leverkusen only expressed an interest in the player today, and despite robust negotiations this afternoon there wasn't enough time for the two clubs to reach an agreement.

Nothing to do with a lack of German efficiency.

looks like Fred might be on the move - he's in London, apparently.. Fulham?

Quick hop on the eurostar to Lens or wherever.

Watching a German game and there is forward called Dursun at Dalmstadt who looks handy, leads the line well and gets plenty of shots away.

I'm marking him down for the man-bun mind. And it might be tricky to get him in this window as he'll be playing for the next half hour.

Dead as a dodo init. Only plausible rumour I've heard today is we've turned down an approach for Davis from Arsenal to replace Gunnersaurus.

They should get Ozil to do it, he's at a bit of a loose end on a Saturday afternoon at present.

Imagine they'll spend 5 hours talking about how Manure never wanted Sancho in the first place
