I do hope we have a few surprises lined up as so far, we are just linked with selling our top players and replacing them with teenagers on free transfers.

Be careful, now. Danny Drinkwater was a surprise.

‘Drinky’ was a shock rather than a surprise.

There's a player in Hoijland for sure.

A dead one, I presume?

I'm with Ozz, he could be a decent player but they overpaid to such a ridiculous degree that they created a situation where the pressure on him was completely over the top. £70m for a guy who was worth about a 3rd of that at the time.

Agree, he’s obviously a decent player, but the price they paid was ridiculous.
In a better environment he will come good again

I don’t like his face.  He’s prime nose material.

Barry is surely worth more than £3.5m? Not much more but £5m minimum with some add ins on top and a cheap buyback clause

Apparently Palace are in for Azzaz from Boro for £25m
Wonder if we put in a sell-on clause.

If Dominic Cruciate-Ligament signs for us they will have to open a new wing at our rehabilitation facilities. No, no and thrice NO.

That seems like a lot. Presumably they're playing extra for the additional 'z'.
