He does look good, maybe buy him and loan him back to Reading for the rest of the season.


Yes we never do stuff like that
I think we did with Freddie Guilbert.


Oh yes 😳 sorry 😀

No-one will spend anything until the fax machine has been deep-cleaned.

have they dispatched people to shiver outside training grounds yet, whilst brandishing big,  hairy, phallic-like microphones?

That Sky Sports transfer show is hilarious. When the presenter talks and they’re about to go to a break the two ‘transfer experts’ stare at the camera. Oh and those white soled black trainers are obligatory.

I'm sure I read somewhere that we are considering loaning Freddie out to a Turkish side, but I can't find it anywhere.
Maybe it was a dream?

I think Sky must have bought a 1,000 pairs of them. They can't all choose to wear those of their own free will, surely. They don't look like the sort of footwear that someone like Souness would naturally gravitate to.

They've both had hamstring injuries. Why are you saying they've had covid and possibly long covid effects?

I did not say that they had covid read the post......I said could

Man, I'd like some transfer action, then we could start slagging off the quality of the new arrivals rather than each other!

Apologies for the link to this rag - It's an article about Rob Mackenzie, the new 'Head of recruitment' brought in during the summer at the same time as Shakespeare.
This completely passed me by, so sharing in case others weren't aware. Oversaw the signings of players such as Vardy, Mahrez, Kante, Alderweireld and Heung-min Son - That's quite an impressive portfolio!

Alderweireld sticks out a bit on that list - I'm not sure "he's really good on loan at Southampton so let's use our clout to buy him before they do" really counts as great scouting.

You said we had players that had been out for a long time, referring to Barkley and Trezeguet. Could it be long covid?

Trezeguet testing positive on the 8th January after being injured for more than a month doesn't change what you were saying made no sense. Just as if Wesley tests positive now it doesn't mean he's had long covid for 13 months. Come on man.
