DLC looks like he's mugged a Wolves fan for those trousers.

Harley Hunt from Swindon for £500k being looked at for 2027's sacrifice for PSR.

I beg your pardon?

That's what players born in 2008 are called these days.

It's from a Michael Kors runway show at New York Fashion Week. Can't speak for the other guy, who just looks daft, but I think on his own DCL looks quite stylish there.

The guy on the right looks like he shouldn't be within 500 yards of any playground.

In fairness, he is hot (Calvert-Lewin).

Yeah, DCL looks smart enough, and he manages to pull that look off. Davies just looks like somebody with a cool mate who's trying too hard to fit in.

Newcastle in talks to sign Calvert-Lewin, don’t know what to make of that

It's none of your business so don't worry about it

I'm only familiar with him in his current pony tail era and was actually surprised when googling for that picture to see him looking so different with other hair cuts. I don't think we need him as a player but if we need to top up the handsome levels in the squad when Dougie leaves, he'd certainly do a job for us.

Ha! Seriously though, he sounds like the type of centre back Unai loves, shame he's so young. At £500k he's worth the risk, I'd leave him at Swindon for another season, at least he's getting games under his belt and see where he is next summer or at least wait until he starts shaving.

Wearing ones dressing gown outside should be a dead giveaway about that...

It's about what we do. Our goal is to establish ourselves in the top 4. If we do that, while he goes on to be Maradona, so be it, everybody wins. The only way Kellyman can help us with that objective, is by bringing in a good fee, not by what he might do in 2 or 3 years time.

We’re clearly a club in a hurry and giving young talent the time and patience to develop into first team regulars has gone, at least for the foreseeable future. If Ramsey was a couple of years younger he’d probably have gone the same way.

It’s sad in a way as seeing players come through is one of the joys of being a supporter. But this is the business model now, and the manager needs a squad where all are ready to play now.

Aren't they also treading a fine line?  More PSR Workaround?  I wonder which one of their players is coming our way?

[cdbearsfan]

Chuck a buy back clause in.

Be only £800k to jot onto the books. Not a huge issue with sales going the out their door.

As mentioned by Pablo Picasso, we are importing some of that "young player patience" with these two Juve players, though. Hard to tell if they're going to be able to hit the ground running any quicker than Irog... or Kellyman.

Kellyman has played 153 minutes of senior football. Iling has played 36 times for a Juve side, that includes the Champions League. Enzo played 36 games Serie B. There's no serious comparison.
