Ramón Rodríguez Verdejo (AKA Monchi)

[Tuscans]

Monchi: “The Premier League ended nine days ago, & we haven't stopped. There’s no time to rest — a sporting director’s vacation is in September.”

“Emery has been able to bring out the best in Rashford, & Unai is the number one for that. He’s a player with top-notch, elite ability. We haven’t lost hope — he has a significant connection with the club & Unai.”

“The story between Dibu & Aston Villa must continue, that’s my wish. He’s happy & content, but I’m not in his head. Asensio hasn’t lost his talent — he’s given us a lot, & he’s in our best interest.” @elpelotazocsr #avfc

That’s a weird stream of consciousness type set of quotes.

Positive though.

I like to think this is how he talks in real life - only in soundbites

[john e]

Positive though.

Yep, that’s what I thought

[eamonn]

Spanish and Italian newspaper football quotes are always so much more dramatic and spill the tea than the media-trained boring cvnts we get over here.

[Mister E]

Positive though.

I suppose that depends on your point of view. It's my view that Rashford's presence in the squad reduces the involvement / effectiveness of the likes of Ramsey and Rogers, and that keeping him would only make sense if we were in the ECL. His high wages will only inhibit other signings.

[Clampy]

The fact that we still want to keep Rashford is positive in the way that may suggest financially, all is not that bad.

I don’t think Rashford inhibits Rogers. Ramsey maybe, but then if it forces JJ to up his game that’s a good thing.

Ramsey wide left, Roger’s through the middle behind Rashford. Just need a player on the right with a surname starting with R for a full house.

Rashford through the middle - has that ever really worked? Harnessing Rashford and Watkins (or Malen)  looked good when we actually tried it.

If it pushes Rogers onto the right, I think it does.

Yep, that's what I found encouraging. Plus, I want Rashford back.

This is the real reason we're signing Zepiqueno Redmond.
