I'd be hoping for 3 more. A centre half who is good in the air, as I fear Mings is finished.

A high quality 10 and a 2nd striker. The gloss, the cherry and the absolute icing on the cake. We'll be improved then.

Imagine being better than last year...
What have you heard to arrive at this dirty bomb of a  revelation?

Well, they seem desperate to get rid of him.
reported £400k a week wages might be the issue

His wages are actually reported to be closer to £100k a week.

He also wants to leave, desperately, so maybe everyone is open to negotiations.

Well if he wants to play football instead of rotting in Madrid he’ll have to reduce his demands. The poor little lamb will have to accept at least a 50% reduction.

Isn't the current rumour that Villa and Felix are pretty much in agreement and the holdup is around Atleti holding out for a bigger fee than we're willing to offer, €70m being the number I've seen.

I think it'll complete before long at something like €15-20m less than that.

Would they be interested in Durán, I wonder?

Bbc gossip says Spuds are leading Arsenal and Liverpool in the race to sign Chiesa from Juve. He must really be crocked if that's true.

JF has failed at almost every club since leaving Portugal. I do hope it’s just a rumour and we are going nowhere near this waste.

Emery loves him as a player. I think there is now more chance of it happening than not.

We really don't need another Coutinho, we're still paying for the last one
