Perhaps we are interested in Fernandes.
Will he still look like a rat when he plays for us

Yes. Some things cant be changed. I mean if Anthony Gordon signed for us - he would still be a very ugly young man.

I have to admit this season we must have the most handsome squad we have had in years. Rashford probably is the short straw, after that I'm struggling.

Scored against Southampton between the PSG games after coming on as sub as well.

Sure, but I was looking at the bit when he was supposedly "out of form" leading him to not play against PSG.

I expect Mellin wasn't considering winning the game for us against Southampton as part of that period.

Wouldn't like to be sitting next to him on bench tonight!

If he doesn't start at Wembley I reckon he'll seriously be thinking about wanting to go.

He might not be too bad tonight, it would be if he's not starting Saturday where he would be properly pissed off.

Would be such a shame, but it would be a good excuse to sell him for PSR reasons. I hope he breaks that goal scoring record though!

Yeah, you're right. Discounted Southampton. As for the previous post, I'll accept I was guilty of sensationalism. Out of form, not massively so.

I think maybe we should have started with him. Southampton aside, he doesn’t seem to have much impact from the bench, like he struggles to get up to speed in games in which he comes on.

Spot on.
Hardly noticed he was on the pitch v PSG....in fact, taking Rashford off was a Feckin' sin!

So, we sell Warkins this summer to get in line with PSR while we still can get decent £££ for him. Go out and offer Rashford and have Malen.

Just saw the Carragher clip on the Ipshot saying we offered him to Arse in Jan....hmmm...

I hope he's fuming again after that. He was no worse than anyone else, but he raised his head above the parapet so I'm dying to hear from him.
